about

Rough night...unfocussed wakings...Morning...Sleep...Dream

lyrics

The Floor The TV And The Phone

I woke up - With The TV On
That’s Very Rare – These Days
Somebody Raving On – About Knives
The Best Knives Ever Made
And They Can – Be All Mine
For Only Four Low Payments
Of $14.99
(Buts Its Not The Phone)

I Woke Up On The Floor Again
Its 4:25 AM
My Boots Are Still On
My Head Fells Like A Gold Mine

The Phone Don’t Ring - A lot These Days
And When It Does – I Jump !
Its Never Who You - Hope It Is
Or…They Just Hang Up
Another Wrong Number Or An Overseas Sales Call
Never Other Lonlies

I Don’t Really Think –
Anybody’s Really Looking Fore Me
Shlould I Drag My Ass to Bed
Where I Belong - 1/2Verse:

solo

Bridge

Everything Is – As It As It Seems
And Trains Make You Gamble
And Its Is What It Is
And It Is Midnight Again Just Like Before
No Thank you Sugar Town – Leave The Sugar down
Please – Just Close The Door !


I Really Had to Do Something
So I Gave My Friends The Feds A Ring
They Kindly put My Number on their
“Official Do Not Disturb List” !
They Must Have Contacted You Too

I woke up - With The TV On
At 4:39 AM
Again
My boots still on
My Mind Feels Like That Eggshell

I Really Do Not Like This Floor
Don’t Watch TV - These Days
Cant Even Stand The Thought – Of A Phone
The Way It Mocks Me
You’d Be Amazed
Without Making A Sound

I Doubt - Anybody’s Really Looking Fore Me
I Should Drag My Ass to Bed
Where I Belong –

I woke up - On The Floor Again
It’s 4:59 AM
My boots still on
I Can Almost Smell The Dawn
Where You Belong – Where I Belong


- I really need to sleep – I really need to dream……

about

Rollo Ellis Melbourne, Australia

I met my Spirit Guide, Chollis Ellis in 1979 under a chair at University. I heard his voice from time to time over the years –messages and reminders. I saw Chollis again in 1999 in my small bedroom studio. He saif “You are ready now-you are Rollo Ellis.” He never specified “what” I was ready for – but I knew “It” was Spiritual and Creative. The right half of my brain IS literally Rollo Ellis. ... more
