Drink In The Day by Paul Dobbe
Magic sunsets
Shooting stars, on these last days of summer Summer
You got to drink in the da
Sway with the wind
Let your dreams take you away
Drink in the day
Open all the doors
Listen to the children, Sing, sing
Drink in the day, Open your mind
Let your vision guide you today
I'm not ready
To say goodbye
I want summer, to stay forever
Every day is shorter
And a little colder
Let's have fun on these last days, of summer
Drink in the day
Open all the doors
Listen to the children, Play, play
Drink in the day, Sway with the wind
Let your dreams take you away
Here we go!
Solo
The trees grow dark, with flocks of summer birds
Waiting to fly, as they follow the summer sun
Be happy today, and don't lose heart
'Cause you know, summer, will be, back again
One more time
Drink in the day
Open all the ways
Listen to the children, Play, play
Drink in the day, Sway with the wind
Let your dreams take you away
So you got to
Drink in the day
Open all the doors
Listen to the children, Play, play
Drink in the day, Sway with the wind
Let your dreams take you away

We Are The Immigrants

We Are The Immigrants by Paul Dobbe and Jackie Sordoni
We may sound different and not look like you
Yet we bleed just the same
We are your neighbors
Your students, your laborers
Only with, different names
Pay all your taxes and we don't complain
We are the immigrants that make your nations grow
We've traveled far, in search of a new tomorrow
We've fought your wars
So you can survive
We are your artists
Your nurses, your janitors
Only with different origins
Pay all your taxes and then get pushed to the margins
We are the immigrants that build the concrete towers
Pick the crops, and sow all those flowers
Take care of the children
The parents and the spouse
Solo
We are the immigrants who help your life style grow
We've traveled far, so we could have a future
We've fought your oil wars
So you can drive home
We are the immigrants that make your nations thrive
We come from afar, so we could find a home.

Are You In

Are You In by Paul Dobbe and Elayne Terranova
It's Sunday, can you stay
I'll make some drinks, and, we'll kick back
Play some tunes of the day
And let your mind unpack
Oh tell me, don't delay
Tell me what's on your mind, don't hold back
I'll listen to what, you say, hay, hay
Are you in, or are you out
Do you know, are there doubts?
Never know, please say yes
I'm waiting, in anticipation
Of your reply
Tell me that, our stars align
Can you give, just, one sign
Let's talk about, this and that
It's still Sunday, say that, you're here to stay
I'll make some snacks
Jump into the pool
Kick back
Just relax
Are you in, or are you out
Do you know, are there doubts
I never know, please say yes
I'm waiting
For your...
For your reply
Oh, I’m waiting!
And waiting
For your reply
Yes, I’m waiting.

Since I Left Troy

Since I Left Troy by Paul Dobbe
It's ten years, since I left Troy
Telemachus is no longer, a small boy
He's a grown man
Oh Athena, won't you help him
Seek my story, with my own, comrades-in-arms
Penelope, Penelope
Can't you please wait, it's in our fate
I'm, on, my way, let Ailos, fill our sails
With the aid of the Phaeacians
I'll find the isle, I left behind
Ithaca, is my home
Where the Suitors roam my palace
Drink and eat my food
Oh Calypso, of Ogygia
Can't you let me go
It's been seven years
Tell Telemachus, I'm still alive, and I'm coming home
Forgive me Poseidon, please Athena
Help me, help me
I've roamed for one score
The Sirens, I had to ignore
Transformed by Circe
And thanks to Hermes, let Ailos, fill our sails
With the Phaeacians
I will find,
The isle, that I left behind
Penelope, Penelope
Can't you please wait, it's in our fate
I'm, on, my way, let Ailos, fill our sails
With the aid of the Phaeacians
I'm on my way, let Ailos, fill our sails
And help us find
The isle, that we left behind
Penelope, my darling
Penelope
Please wait for me
Can't you wait?

Tell Me, Tell Me by Paul Dobbe and Elyane Terranova
Hold me, hold me now
Don’t pull away
Your touch reveals to me
That you don’t want to stop this now
Release it
Give into the feeling
In the light of the day you will see what I’m saying
Cause I know, what I feel is gonna show
So tell me if you really want to go
Baby, take the lead from me
Tell me, tell me, tell me now
Tell me, tell me now
What you can’t say
You see what you’re doing to me
Won’t you, won’t you start now
Release it
Say it, mean it, believe it
There’s an opening here, it’s your turn darling
All clear
Cause I know, what I feel is gonna show
So, tell me how you really want to go
Baby, will you take the lead?

How Long? by Paul Dobbe
How long will I bear the pain of my mistakes
Tell me, what I missed
Things went way too quick
A day, a year
It's hard, to, compare when you're not there
I know you hurt, hang on
I had so many questions
And, I got, no answers
I, never failed you.

Lody's Life

Lody's Life #StopChildLabor by Paul Dobbe
Blaring sunlight opened their eyes
Is this the day, that all things will change
Or another day in this slum, this slum, this slum, this slum
You see, Lody she didn't, have a say, she had no other way
She had only one dream to dream
To run through the fields of grass
Play with my friends all day
Go visit my mother too
I would hug her and hug her
Maybe I could go to school
Maybe I would learn to read
Maybe I could, maybe I could, maybe I could be a kid
“Children Playing”
Another day with no end
Lody: Too much to do, I can't keep up
It keeps on coming, when will it stop?
Keep up, don't stop!
Lody, you see, she didn't have a choice
No voice, no choice, no voice, no choice
Up came the sun, another day
They walk the streets, nothing to eat
No shoes to shield their feet
There's so much to learn, so little time
What was their crime?
Set the children free.
“Children Playing”
Only if she could
Run through the fields of grass
Play with my friends all day
Go visit my father too
I'd hug him and hug him
Maybe I could go to school
And live the golden rule
If I could be, if I could be, if I could be a kid.

Turn, Turn, Turn

Turn, Turn, Turn by Pete Seeger
To everything turn, turn, turn
There is a season turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
To everything turn, turn, turn
There is a season turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together
To everything turn, turn, turn
There is a season turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing
To everything turn, turn, turn
There is a season turn, turn, turn
And a time to every purpose under heaven
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late
