The Fuel
When you're feeling, like the world has got you down
Turn up that music, and wipe away that frown
When you're feeling, so tired and so drained
Turn up that music, flick on some Coltrane
Music is the fuel to feed our soul
Music is the fuel to keep us whole
Music is the fuel to feed our soul
Music is the fuel to keep us whole
Stuck in traffic, what a way to start the day
Turn up that music, transport yourself away
When the whole world, is falling at your feet
Turn up that music, get up off that seat
Music is the fuel to feed our soul
Music is the fuel to keep us whole
Music is the fuel to feed our soul
Music is the fuel to keep us whole
Music is the fuel to feed our soul
Music is the fuel to keep us whole
Music is the fuel to feed our soul
Music is the fuel to keep us whole

Whatcha Gonna Do

Whatcha gonna do
People looking down, treading you to ground
People looking through you, like you don’t exist
But many a great man has been in a place you’re in
Been in a place that you’re in
They call you names, set you up to take the blame
What did I do, but be small, or different from you
But many a great man has been in a place you’re in
Been in a place that you’re in
Hey you, whatcha gonna do,
Whatcha gonna do, when that bad man come for you
Hey you, stand up for yourself,
Stand up for yourself ‘cause you’ll get help from no one else
Hey you, whatcha gonna do,
Whatcha gonna do, when that bad man come for you
Hey you, stand up for yourself,
Stand up for yourself ‘cause you’ll get help from no one else
You can be sure, that they’re immature
It’s what they’ll do, when they’re jealous of you
But many a great man has been in a place you’re in
Been in a place that you’re in
So when you’re down, take a look around
Be positive, ‘cause it’s your life to live
But many a great man has been in a place you’re in
Been in a place that you’re in
Stand up for yourself ‘cause you’ll get help from no one else
Stand up for yourself ‘cause you’ll get help from no one else
Stand up for yourself ‘cause you’ll get help from no one else

Songomantis
He’s a green machine from mother earth
A drawn out face came straight from birth
Long stick body all seeing eyes
Crouching ready preying on flies
Oh little mantis stealthin’ around
Oh little mantis what have you found
Oh little mantis stealthin’ around
Oh little mantis what’s your sound
Hanging around like an acrobat
Defying gravity what you think about that
A silent killer, moving so light
Camo kit, He’s out of sight
I put him outside but he comes back in
He must be on a diet ‘cause his body’s so thin
Fish bowl eyes from outer space
Pondering the world moving with grace
He’s a green machine from Aotearoa
Must be around thanks to good old Noah
Scanning the room looking so wise
Stalking his prey ready to surprise

Luck of the draw
It’s six a.m. and you’re on the road
Board in the back trying to reach the snow
The weather’s grey as you pull up to the gate
The desert road’s closed so you’ll have to wait
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
You find a dollar lying on the street
You knock your head getting to your feet
You’re going for a job and it’s down to two
You get that call but they didn’t pick you
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
When luck goes your way, you’d better grab it with both hands
When luck goes your way, get up and make a stand
Some luck is good some luck is bad
Turn that bad luck into the best that you had
Luck has a way of evening out
So make the most of that luck when it comes about
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
Luck of the draw
So make the most of that luck when it comes about, oh yeah
So make the most of that luck when it comes about, oh yeah
So make the most of that luck when it comes about, oh yeah

Bethells
I got a call at a quarter to four, to go for a surf on the coast
Jumped in my truck, with my paddle and ski and headed on down to the sea
Ten foot waves, water so fresh and a crest that banked to the left
What a way to spend a summers day, riding the swells at Bethells
Just one of those days when you sit back and say
Here and now there’s nothing I’d change
When all is so right, and you surf until there's no sunlight
Just one of those days when you sit back and say
Here and now there’s nothing I’d change
When all is so right and you surf until there's no sunlight
The shadows grow tall as the sun starts to fall water turns black from blue
What a way to spend a day with a beer and a BBQ
Sound of summer on a West Coast beach when Neppy meets Mother Earth
The crash and boom of a perfect wave, and the song of a Tui bird.
Feel that salty spray as you’re carving down the wave
What a way to spend a summer’s day, riding the swells at Bethells
Just one of those days when you sit back and say
Here and now there’s nothing I’d change
When all is so right, and you surf until there's no sunlight
Just one of those days when you sit back and say
Here and now there’s nothing I’d change
When all is so right and you surf until there's no sunlight
The shadows grow tall as the sun starts to fall, water turns black from blue
What a way to spend a day with a beer and a BBQ

Late
Now listen here, one and all
There’s a problem going on and we’re talking the fall
You know, what’s going on
They take your money, quick as a flash
But when a robber comes knocking, they stump with no cash
You know, what’s going on
Procrastination, all through the nation,
Why do you make me late, when you procrastinate?
L, looks like you’re going to have to wait for a bit
A, problems come up we’re finding hard to fix
T, too many jobs no time to spare
E, ven though we had the time to play solitaire
L, bro you’re wasting my time
A, day or two would have been fine
T, temperature’s rising, you’re making me wait
E, ven though you said you wouldn’t make us late

Blue
When I first saw your face, across the crowded room,
When I saw you
Those songs they came alive, with more excitement and drive
When I saw you
But when will she notice me
What should I say when we first meet
Every time I see you take away the colour blue
Every time I see your face that blue has gone without a trace
Just one look is all I need to know that you have noticed me
Every time I see you I know that you’re my 'I love you'
One late night New Year’s Eve while walking down the beach
When we first met
Will you go out with me, the rest is history
When we first met
When I’m in bed lying next to you, my mind's more at ease and yours is too
Every time I see you take away the colour blue
Every time I see your face that blue has gone without a trace
Just one look is all I need to know that you have noticed me
Every time I see you I know that you’re my ‘I love you’
Sometimes you make me sad sometimes you make me mad
Now I’m with you
We argue just for fun I still know you’re the one
Now I’m with you
We have our fights we have our blues
But I can’t imagine being without you
Every time I see you take away the colour blue
Every time I see your face that blue has gone without a trace
Just one look is all I need to know that you have noticed me
Every time I see you I know that you’re my ‘I love you’

Light of day
Perched at my desk, I need to take a rest,
I’ve got a ten tonne pile in front
I’ll tell you where it’s at, wish I was making Skit Skats,
Jamming some tunes in my room
All I want to do is play some tunes in my room
But all I seem to do is work from eight 'til late
Hey hey hey I never see the light of day
Hey hey hey I never see the light of day
At my work station running simulations
The more I do the more to be done
I’ll tell you what I’ll do, grab some breakfast with you
Washed down with a cup of fresh brew
All I want to do is play some tunes in my room
But all I seem to do is work from eight 'til late
Hey hey hey I never see the light of day
Hey hey hey I never see the light of day
But when the deadline's met and I have finished the set
I'll be ready for you
But when the deadline’s met and I have finished the set
I'll be ready for you
All I want to do is play some tunes in my room
But all I seem to do is work from eight 'til late
Hey hey hey I never see the light of day
Hey hey hey I never see the light of day
All I want to do is play some tunes in my room
But all I seem to do is work from eight til late
Hey Hey Hey I never see the light of day
Hey Hey Hey I never see the light of day
