RHYTHM AND BLUE JEANS
RHYTHM AND BLUE JEANS
Kathy Klein
Verse 1
Deadlines dropping on my desk
Inbox is full and the boss is uptight
But I can't get nothin' done
'Cause I'm too busy thinkin' bout tonight
Prechorus
You think I swoon over all those stuffy execs
Truth is I'm head over heels 'cause when the sun sets
I'll be
Chorus
Flyin down the highway in your car
Dancin on a dirt road under the stars
Don't need those guys with a Pulitzer prize
They don't hold me when I'm tryin' not to cry
They might own everything with an ivy league family tree
But baby they don't got nothin on your rhythm and blue jeans
Verse 2
You slide across the dance floor
Teasin' me with every crease
Stonewashed, torn up, or cowboy cut
You're never worn out to me
Prechorus
Chorus
Bridge
Green light
Let's go
No time to waste let's hit the road
You're strumming your guitar
And it's a humming in my heart
I'm about to lose control as I'm...
Chorus

SWEET MEMORIES
Sweet Memories
Kathy Klein
Verse 1
You make me bacon and eggs every morning
Sometimes they burn
Well we like to visit Paris in springtime
With money we earn
Prechorus
We got a good thing goin'
Won't throw throw throw it away
There's nothin' that we need to show 'em
The proof is between you and me and the way
Chorus
We make sweet memories
And I keep 'em in my pocket along with the locket you gave to me
We make sweet memories
And we're gonna make some more just got to wait and see what they're gonna be

We sang a karaoke duet
A little off key
People threw tomatoes til we got off the set
We slipped and you kissed me
Prechorus
Chorus
Bridge
Some people think we're unstable
'Cause we get up and go on a whim
But as long as we're willing and able
What's the use in holding life in, 'cause
Chorus --- END ---

WATER YOUR SOUL
Water your soul
At night you go looking for a cricket to turn your luck around
When life has become a speeding ticket you got when slowing down
Oh, life is full of twists and turns
So that we can feel the burns
And that's how we learn, so you gotta
Chorus:
Water water water water water your soul
'Cause you know in the end it begins with a hope
Always let serenity be the goal
'Cause as bad as it gets there's always a way to cope
When a bus hits a puddle that splashes all over your coat
Don't let the earth swallow you whole
And water your soul
Verse 2:
You could feed your flowers every Monday but they dry and shrivel up
Pull out all the weeds before the sunrise heck they're back before the dusk
Problems never go away
But nobody can take your place
So gotta keep the faith, and
Chorus:
Water water water water water your soul
'Cause you know in the end it begins with a hope
Always let serenity be the goal
'Cause as bad as it gets there's always a way to cope
When a bus hits a puddle that splashes all over your coat
Don't let the earth swallow you whole
And water your soul
Bridge:
When the drought seems neverending
And you're filled with despair
Just remember rain is coming
Just remember rain is coming
Water your soul
Chorus:
Water water water water water your soul
'Cause you know in the end it begins with a hope
Always let serenity be the goal
'Cause as bad as it gets there's always a way to cope
When a bus hits a puddle that splashes all over your coat
Don't let the earth swallow you whole
And water your soul --- END ---

DAISY MAY
DAISY MAY
Verse 1
Back in 1848
Daisy came from the edge of town
Raised by the rocks on the river
Soothed her pain, moving from train to train
Looking for something better
Like Jesse James
She was a hard headed soul
And a hard case to crack
But when she got a taste of that gold
She knew her place was there above the tracks
Chorus:
Daisy May
She go with the go with the locomotive
Daisy May
She go where she go where she want to go and
Robbin the railways
That's how she spent her days
While the town folk would sit and pray
For Daisy May
Verse 2:
She had the sweetest face
It was the greatest disguise
No one suspected a pistol
But she spun it out with bullets in her eyes
And the passengers screamed along with the train whistle
Chorus:
Daisy May
She go with the go with the locomotive
Daisy May
She go where she go where she want to go and
Robbin the railways
That's how she spent her days
While everyone ran away
From Daisy May
Bridge:
Well she thought she was invincible
So when they cuffed her little hands
She threw a big ole fit
For messing with her plans
But she could not be detained
And while the sheriff looked away
She grabbed his keys set herself free
And made her big escape, 'cause
Chorus:
Daisy May
She go with the go with the locomotive
Daisy May
She go where she go where she want to go and
Robbin the railways
That's how she spent her days
And how they all learned her name
Daisy May

DISCO GIRL
DISCO GIRL
Verse 1
Friday night my guy blew me off
Got a date with Tivo
But the only thing I'll be turning on
Are reruns of The Love Boat
Prechorus
So so so I break out my crystal ball
And my tarot deck
And I step step step into my time machine and take a deep breath
Chorus
And I'm back in 78
Hooking up with John Travolta
Sharing a glass of cheap champagne
I chase it down with a pepsi cola
Twirling on the dance floor with a guy and his jheri curl
And he smiles over at this boogie oogie disco girl, disco girl, disco girl, disco girl
Verse 2:
Electric slide and I glide over the beat
Grooving to a cool synthesizer track
This moment takes me higher
O I'm never going back
Prechorus
But but but I start to get a little homesick
And miss my family and friends
But just just just as I'm leaving, my nostalgia wins
Chorus
And I stay in 78
Hook up again with John Travolta
Share another glass of cheap champagne
Chased down with a pepsi cola
Twirling on the dance floor with a guy and his jheri curl
And he smiles over at this boogie oogie disco girl, disco girl, disco girl, disco girl
Bridge:
As the nighttime ends
I head back home
And look into my mirror
And see the disco ball hangin' crystal clear
And I see
Chorus:
Me in 1978
Hookin up with John Travolta
Sharing a glass of cheap champagne
Chased down with pepsi cola
Twirling on the dance floor with a guy and his jheri curl
And he smiles over at this boogie oogie disco girl

NIGHT CREAM
Night Cream
Verse 1:
I got three kids and a full time job oh yeah
No doubt about it, I truly am blessed
Still some days I really struggle
Like chasing rabid dogs through a jungle, with no GPS
Can’t believe it’s only Tuesday evening
I'll never put Carol Brady to shame
Bills are piling up with the laundry
Found my checkbook at the bottom of the diaper genie
Along with my brain, 'cause
Chorus:
'Bout two o'clock this morn
The baby screamed her favorite song
She was up and all ready to play
Didn't care that it wasn't day
These dark circles under my eyes
Make me look like I'm 85
So get a latte with a lotta caffeine
And while you're out could you grab a tub of night cream
Verse 2:
Two minutes this morning to pick out my clothes
My big toe peeks out of the hole of my clashing socks
Halloween sticker on my pants
Cup of hot coffee in my hand
And I trip over a juice box, 'cause
Chorus:
'Bout two o'clock this morn
The baby screamed her favorite song
She was up and all ready to play
Didn't care that it wasn't day
These dark circles under my eyes
Make me look like I'm 85
So get a latte with a lotta caffeine
And while you're out could you grab a tub of night cream
Could you grab a tub of night cream (X2)
Chorus:
'Bout two o'clock this morn
The baby screamed her favorite song
She was up and all ready to play
Didn't care that it wasn't day
These dark circles under my eyes
Make me look like I'm 85
So get a latte with a lotta caffeine
And while you're out could you grab a tub of night cream
Could you grab a tub of night cream

NO MORE INCARNATIONS PLEASE
NO MORE INCARNATIONS PLEASE
VERSE 1
Oh I've been Cleopatra
And I've fought the Japanese
Been a nomad starved to death in 21 degrees
And I've met Napoleon and sailed the seven seas
So no more incarnations please
Back in the middle ages,
I tortured many fleas
And as a peasant I learned how to make a soup with peas
I've combed the desert with my camel and my coteries
So no more incarnations please
CHORUS
When I was on the other side
My spirit guides they told me how I could evolve my soul
But now that I'm in life 4029
I'm kinda wondering how many more I've left to go
Will this cycle ever end
Or will I keep returning
Since it's obvious that I'm not learning
VERSE 2
Last life I sold used cars
Jaguars and Ferraris
I was trusted not to charge folks any extra fees
So karma sent me packing outback with nothing but my keys
So no more incarnations please
CHORUS
When I was on the other side
My spirit guides they told me how I could evolve my soul
But now that I'm in life 4029
I'm kinda wondering how many more I've left to go
Will this cycle ever end
Or will I keep returning
Since it's obvious that I'm not learning
VERSE 3
I know that I'm a soul
Who oughtta change some priorities
If enlightenment's ever meant to be more than a tease
I better show some appreciation
For each and every situation
And return to this civilization one more time on my knees
So one more incarnation
Maybe two, maybe threes (ha!)
Or many more, many more, oh heck, give me many more incarnations please!

YOU'RE JUST NOT THAT INTO ME
YOU'RE JUST NOT THAT INTO ME
Verse 1:
You may have seen me sitting right beside you looking naive
And baby that's exactly what I'd like you to believe
'Cause I've been waiting for you hoping you'll make a move
Bought a brand new pair of skinny blue jeans just so you'd be impressed
But you didn't hardly notice me and now I'm so depressed
But I'm still waiting for you watching your every move
Knowing you'll some day open your eyes
And see me the way that I see you tonight
Chorus:
Or am I just delusional
Could it be that you don't find me irresistible (nah)
I think we were meant to be
But is my judgment failed by a break in reality
Baby is my love too blind to see
You're not that into me
Verse 2:
Saw you last night with a girl on your arm
Guess she just couldn't resist your charm
Like a bottle of wine looking for a glass to fill
It might be wishful thinking but as long as we're drinking
I know that somethin's bound to spill
Chorus:
Or am I just delusional
Could it be that you don't find me irresistible (nah)
I think we were meant to be
But is my judgment failed by a break in reality
Baby is my love too blind to see
You're not that into me
Bridge:
Someday you'll come up to me
And ask me for my hand
Then we'll book the caterer, photographer, and band (right?)
Chorus:
Or am I just delusional
Could it be that you don't find me irresistible (nah)
I think we were meant to be
But is my judgment failed by a break in reality
Baby is my love too blind to see
You're just not that you're just not that you're just not that....
You're not that into me
Well, I didn't want you anyway...

I CHOOSE YOU
When I first
Met your eyes
I saw more than the blue
My heart soared to the skies
I choose you, I choose you
Anywhere
We will go
Though I'm not sure where to
Tell you this
What I know
I choose you, I choose you
Chorus:
There's a lot in my life I've gotta go through
You are the one who I wanna hold on to
There's a lot in my life that I will do
With this kiss, I choose you
Take my hand
Spin me 'round
It'll always be new
For the one
I have found
I choose you, I choose you
Chorus
Bridge:
Very few very few have this chance
Forever you and I will share this dance
Chorus --- END ---
