Rainy Blues
It's raining outside and the water is cold
And sun and the sun is bright
All the dirt is washed away
And the pain fades away
And the smells and the air are alive
and this is.. this is the Rainy blues
From the mountain to the sea
All the colors are bright and clean
And the mind and the mind is free
The rainbow is behind that tree
And a bird is ready to fly free
And i and i look up to the sky
And this is... the Rainy blues
All the flowers are ready to bloom
And a drop of water tells you the truth
And my heart and my heart is warm
The whisper of the trees
And the sound of the wind
And i and i feel so small
And this is... this is the Rainy blues
And this is... this is the Rainy blues
Tis is the rainy, the rainy blues...

Different Way
When you reach the bottom of life
And you cannot go further inside
I said i, i believe in a different way
Breath in breath out
And the air is not enough
I said i, i believe in a different way
I said i, i believe in a different way
Reality is now cruel i know
But we must all have a cause
I said i, i believe in a different way
I said i, i believe in a different way
I said i, i believe in a different way
Take your spirit and your mind
And lets put on a stone in the line
I said i, i believe in a different way
I said i, i believe in a different way
I said i, i believe in a different way

Plastic Blue bag
Hey brother,
I think i'll take the train
I'm gonna go away now
Because i cannot stay
And i don't need no house no car
And i don't need no phone and no cigars
Everything i need fits in this plastic blue bag...
Hey brother,
I'm stuck in a crossroad
I got to find my way out
Or i'll get lost
And i don't need no house no car
And i don't need no phone and no cigars
Everything i need fits in this plastic blue bag...
Hey brother,
I think i'll take the plane
I got to fly away now
Because i'm running away
And i don't need no house no car
And i don't need no phone and no cigars
Everything i need fits in this plastic blue bag...
And i don't need no house no car
And i don't need no phone and no cigars
Everything i need fits in this plastic blue bag...

Angry Blues
I'm a child and i don't have a home
I'm a dog without his bone
And this is it
I'm running again
I used to have a home but the bank won't let me in
I'm a doctor and i am sick
I'm a junkie and i need my fix
And this is it
I used to eat a lot but now i have no teeth
I'm a lawyer and i am a judge
I'm a criminal and i am in court
And this is it
I think i'm innocent
Well i just shut that man because he wasn't my friend
I'm policeman i am a pig
I have authority and i have prestige
And this is it
I'll put my gun in your mouth if you look at me
I'm a teacher and i am a priest
I'm a student and i have no belief
Not anymore
Well just give me a sign
I used to read a lot but now i am blind
I'm a driver and i am a sign
If you stop maybe you will stay alive
Well that's alright i guess
I used to drive a lot but now i have no legs
I'm a politician i am a thief
I'm a liar and i am a creep
That's what i do
Yeah this is the truth
I promised everything but now i'm laughing at you
I'm a banker and i have a debt
Nobody cares even if i am dead
And this is it
When i'm in hell open the door and let me in

Sweet Fellow

Sweet Fellow
Went down for a walk
I saw a man and he was talking to himself
This how we'll end up to be
If we continue to live like this
Are we insane or are we fools
I never answer this question to you
Are we corrupted or are we thieves
If you go abroad that's what you hear
Sweet Fellow we need fight right back
Politicians religious men
Well they control the air you breath
You just sit and you watch TV
But life is not a scene on screen
Are we depressed or are we alone
We are so many but still so alone
Are we slaves or are we free
You should decide on which side you will be
Sweet Fellow we need fight right back
Homeless people and refugees
The history repeats again
There is no future for the younger ones
They have to travel really far to work
Are we useless or are we doomed
I don't believe in fate neither should you
Are we strong or are we weak
It doesn't matter what you believe
Sweet Fellow we need fight right back
The system burns you inside out
And you do not have a clue about that
And as a wise man once said
You have the power to change the game
Are we afraid or are we brave
It is time for us to say
Are we the light or are we the dark
This shadow covered us for a long long time
Sweet Fellow we need fight right back

The Story of Grandma Evelyn
I was born in 1925
I had a brother and two sisters
My father was a flower man
That was in New York City
A long time ago
But my father made up his mind to send us back home
This is the story of grandma Evelyn
When we crossed the Atlantic ocean
I was not satisfied
We arrived in my hometown
It was an ancient land
And then the war begun
But i had no gun
I was living with my sister's husband
They say he wasn't a good man
This is the story of grandma Evelyn
And when the war ended
We returned to the States
But everybody insisted that
I go back to Greece
Well i got married
With a doctor i think
And life went on and on and on
Until he was dead
This is the story of grandma Evelyn
I used to drive a car
But i'm too old for that
I had too many surgeries
And now i cannot walk
I'm laying in my bed
I'm not strong enough
My mind is fading away
My memories are dark
This is the story of grandma Evelyn
I passed away
In 2017
I had a good life
And it was bittersweet
This is the story of grandma Evelyn

The Devil Wasn't There
I woke up one morning, sitting on a bench
Well i asked my father is this the end
He said child.. i'm coming home
Because the devil wasn't there
It was me alone
Well i said darling, i'm coming home
I don't want you to be alone
I said child, i was wrong
Because the devil wasn't there
It was me alone
Darling i'm coming and i love you
Darling i know you want me too
He said yeah.. I paid my debt
I paid my debt
Because the devil was never there
It was me instead
Because the devil was never there
It was me instead.
