This is a very cool poem my Dad made up the other day. It inspired me to write music to it. I think we are going to make a c.d. of childrens poems together. So hurry up and have a kid so we can make some money off of you. The sun is shining today and I feel better than James Brown.

Thanks for all your birthday wishes. I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.

love,

Steve

The spider and the bumblebee

A spider spun his web one day beneath an apple tree.
“I’ll see what I can snare,” said he, for he was hungry as can be.
A big fat bumblebee flew by, amazed by this wondrous sight.
He saw this gleaming web like wonder shimmering in the morning light.

“I’ll just drop down to check this out,” he thought it was so cool.
But suddenly he became entwined he surely was a fool.
No matter how he struggled, no matter how he fought,
he could not seem to free himself, he was securely caught.

The spider rushed toward his prey, preparing to eat this juicy thing.
“Come any closer,” said the bee, “and you will feel my deadly sting.”
They eyed each other for quite sometime during that hot and sunny day,
when along came a bullfrog who gobbled them up, and hopped merrily on his way.

I wish I would go to sleep like a normal person, guy/dude. But here it is at 3:30 in da mornin' and I'm strumming the git-box and walking around the hissing snakes on the floor and singing to them. Listen below to the lullaby I'm recording in my little bat hole.

Lullaby Song

I'm alone in the city tonight
Nothin' really feels right
I'd love to hold you in my arms
and sing you a lullaby song
I'll sing you to sleep with a lullaby song
when you're in my arms
nothin' can go wrong

My heart is worth its weight in gold
I'd love to grow to be real old
I feel you pumping through my veins
A stinging love can't be wrong
A love that stings can't be wrong
When you're in my arms
Nothin' can go wrong

The moon is dangling in the sky
From a fishing pole way up high
I'm thinkin' of you as I sing this song
I'm wonderin' if you're singin' along
I'm hopin' that you're wonderin' if I'm singin' this song
When you're in my arms
Nothin' can go wrong

I'm alone in the city tonight
Nothin' really feels right
I'd love to hold you in my arms
and sing you a lullaby song
I'll sing you to sleep with a lullaby song
when you're in my arms
nothin' can go wrong
