Gemini

Far from Heaven, back to Earth… ♊️

Far from Heaven, back to Earth,
In the half light, two souls’ rebirth
Gemini, tear me in two,
In the daytime, the sun is calling the moon,
Gemini

Piano Instrumental 🎼

And when the race is run, and things can’t get much worse
One minute you’re in last, the next one you’re in first
To be so brilliant now, and then the complete reverse
Oh, Gemini

Looking upward, toward the sky
Cooly melting, into the warmth of July
Gemini, season of air
In the twilight, stars guiding you there
Gemini

Piano Instrumental 🎼

Oh, Lord, the bad is getting worse
Oh, my darling, our love can break the curse
Oh luck, feeling shitty lost in space
Oh life, may we fill our land with grace
Oh fuck, we’re running out of time
All these contradictions always running through my mind
Oh Gemini
Oh Gemini

Real

I know what I know, and I know that this is real... 💚

Your dusty leather books, calla lilies in a vase
Rich mahogany shelves and your emerald velvet chaise
This is how your half lives, and you wonder why they jest 
Its elementary my dear, won’t you take your finest guess? 

Back on the rolling green lawns, where we played when we were kids
Before we knew right from wrong, and life was changed by the Shins
I know what you’ll say, don’t you tell me how I feel
I know what I know, and I know that this is real
I know what I know, and I know that this is real

(For YOU)

 Won’t you look at the majesty of this catastrophe won’t you? 
As we turn this whole masterpiece into a tragedy right on cue
And of all of the analogies, in the whole galaxy, nothing compares to you
So let’s turn our reality into rhapsody tangled up in blue

Wicked winds of wisdom, whip amongst the violet rays
In aqua sparkling pools on those endless summer days
Freshly laundered linens, folded neatly on your bed
With contracts binding, dollar signing in your head  

Silent gallery echoes, curtains drawn across the plane
An immaculate vibe, brought back from France and sunny Spain
Hazy lazy night times, blinding green light signs
An orgiastic future, roaring in and out of view
Eyes of god watching as you’re roaring into view

(For YOU)

As I reflect on the soliloquy life has in store for me and you
With all its peaks and its valleys and all the little things I thought I knew
And if love is a malady, that has it out  for me, I’ll never grow sick of you
So let’s make all this blasphemy a rose-colored fantasy for two

Orchestral Outro 🎼

Vibe On Me

I’ve been dwelling on a dream… 💤

I’ve been dwelling on a dream, where I’m a failed nominee,
At an after party scene, my life’s work torn to pieces
A fading memory, until you came on to me,
And pulled me out the deep, and we danced away the night

I vibe on you, you vibe on me, we’re vibing on each other
The spark ignites the flame
I vibe on you, you vibe on me, we’re vibing on each other
As we dance the night away

And I’ve been drifting through my mind, trying to pin point the time,
Where I reached for the divine, and failed so miserably,
With a diplomatic verse, that brought upon a curse,
And drove me in a hearse, straight to the after life

And when I reached the pearly gates, old Pete was off on a hot date
And he left me all alone, to reflect and to atone
For the things I never did, for the things I wish I said
For the life I wish I’d lived, if I don’t leap I’ll never know

So I vibe on you, you vibe on me, we’re vibing on each other
Like the ocean sparks a wave
I vibe on you, you vibe on me, we’re vibing all together
Trying to reach a brighter day

BRIDGE (As we danced the night away)

A man walks down the street, trying to unlock the mystery
But its an unfamiliar scene, in a land that’s not his own
In a game he’s never played, but never dare underestimate
How much kindness carries weight, and how its the heart that makes the home

And how your love it makes us whole,
And how the heart it guides us on
And how the love it takes its toll
If you fall…

Winter Snow

Holly went away for a long weekend… ❄️

Holly went away for a long weekend
Took the train up north all on her own
Her crimson cardigan peeking out her overcoat
As she stepped outside into the icy cold

In winter snow 
In winter snow
Floating from my eyes in winter snow 

She found a cozy pub alright for drinkin’ 
The type of place where the old are young and the young are bold 
Her manic life was finally hitting overdrive
As she tucked into her booth vodka sodas flow 

In winter snow
In winter snow
Three sheets to the wind in winter snow

Many lessons learned from that long weekend
Like you can’t outrun your problems no matter how far away you go
Holly’s ready for a change in seasons now
Melting into spring she treks on home

In winter snow
In winter snow
A new chapter for now in winter snow

Kilimanjaro
Kilimanjaro
High up in the sky in winter snow

The Force

There’s a power deep inside you Luke, down deep in your soul… ⭐️

This song kicks off our hero’s journey in Chris Parr's loving and epic Star Wars parody A New Hope: The Musical. Written in the style of The Doors and similar 60’s psychedelia,
this organ heavy song drives forward the plot with Obi-Wan teaching young Luke about the mysterious energy the “Force” in song. Their relationship sparks shades of
Disney’s The Jungle Book. A feature composition for the actor playing Obi-Wan.

LUKE:
But Obi Wan I don’t even know what the Force is!

OBI WAN:
What the fuck? You don’t know what the Force is?
Ha ha ha , you’ve got a lot to learn my boy
It’s okay, sit back, and let Old Ben illuminate!

LUKE:
Yeah Yeah!

OBI WAN:
There’s a power deep inside you Luke, down deep in your soul
It encapsulates your very being, and it’s taking control,
So let go of your fear and your hate and your spite and your pain
Let the force be your guide kid, let it show you the way

And let go, you gotta follow the light
Let go, you gotta do what’s right
And let got you’ll be a Jedi knight
When you let go, you let go, and let the force be your guide

Organ Instrumental

Watch out, there’s a dark side Luke and they want you they want you real bad
They’re some mean mother fuckers, you know they went and killed your dad!

LUKE:
(DADDY!)

OBI WAN:
Yeah the Emperor, he’s a real mean dude, he’s got the Stormtroopers, Death Star, and Darth Vader too!

So let go, you gotta follow the light
Let go, you gotta do what’s right
Let go, don’t join that dark side
Let go, you let go and let the force be your guide

Organ Instrumental

Tie fighters in the sky, flying way up high
Take a look, it’s in a book, it’s Reading Rainbow!

You let go, you gotta follow the light
You let go, you gotta do what’s right
You let go, you’ll be a Jedi Knight
When you let go, you let go, you let go go go
You let go, you gotta follow the light
You let go, you gotta do what’s right
You let go, you’ll be a Jedi Knight
When you let go, you let go, let the force be your guide!
