Looking Back

Diane McNamara

    Lyrics to 

THE CAT

DL McNamara & DJ McNamara

​

He’s cool and surly

He’s over thirty

He’ll get ya girl – the cat.

 

His expertise

Assures to please 

Hipster sleaze – the cat

 

Practiced stalkin’

Experience talkin’

You’re gawkin’ at – the cat.

 

Mystery lies in those cool green eyes

One long stare and they’ll hypnotize you

As you melt in his searing gaze

Your will is gone, You’re in a daze

 

You start your pitchin’

Roles are switchin’

Bewitchin’ – the cat

 

He’s not even tryin’

You find you’re eyein’

Tryin’ to attract – the cat.

 

Aloof and so alluring

You got him purrin’

Stroke your fur – the cat.

 

You’re movin’ in ready for the kill

You’re in control, lying low and still

Set your sights, He can’t get away

Then the hunter becomes the prey.

Looking Back

CHILLY HUGS

DL McNamara  2023

Driving through the desert in late October

Parked by the gorge ‘bout to pitch a tent

Gazin’ at the sunset sinkin’ in the northern canyon

Wonderin’ where the last five years have went.

 

Getting up the courage to ask the question

The same one I asked about a year before,

“Are you gonna marry me in this lifetime?”

You throw your arm around me and begin to snore.

 

Don’t give me your chilly, chilly hugs

And your cold, cold kisses.

I don’t want your affections if it ain’t heartfelt.

I been tryin’ to light a fire

To thaw your reservations

But I can’t wait forever for the ice to melt.

 

Sittin’ on the beach in old San Carlos

Time’s siftin’ through my fingers like the hot white sand.

Thinkin’ that I’ll ask you to tell me your intentions.

Are we just playin’, or are you my man?

 

Out of the ocean you come shining and salty

You cock your head and squint at the sun.

Smile at me in answer to my question

Give me a squeeze and then you shrug.

 

Chorus

 

Standin’ in the parking lot in early August

Watchin’ people amble into City Hall.

Checkin’ my watch and wondering what’s the hold up.

If you’re not comin’, well, you better just call.

 

Yesterday you said you needed time for reflection

Didn’t want to venture if there was any doubt.

Well now honey, while you’re considerin’

The clock is tickin’ and time’s run out.

 

Chorus

PHYSICAL ATTRACTION

Diane McNamara & Doug McNamara  ©  2020

 

I don’t care if you make a lot of money.

I don’t care if you have a lot of honeys.

I don’t mind if you got my favorite liquors.

All I want is to get into your knickers!

 

It’s just a physical attraction.

You know, I’m lookin’ for some action.

I don’t want you to get worried,

‘Cause you know I’m in a hurry.

 

I don’t care to know your name.

I don’t want to play no games.

I won’t ask you, “What’s your sign?”

‘Cause, baby, you know I ain’t got the time!

 

It’s just a physical attraction.

You know, I’m lookin’ for some action.

I don’t want you to get worried,

‘Cause you know I’m in a hurry.  (Oh, yeah!)

 

It’s just a physical attraction.

You know, I’m lookin’ for some action.

I don’t want you to get worried,

‘Cause you know I’m in a hurry. 

 

I don’t care if you’re a good dancer.

I don’t care if you’re a kinky romancer.

I don’t care what you do for a buck.

I’m just lookin’ for…good luck!

 

It’s just a physical attraction.

You know, I’m lookin’ for some action.

I don’t want you to get worried,

‘Cause you know I’m in a hurry.

It’s just a physical attraction.

You know, I’m lookin’ for some action.

I don’t want you to get worried,

‘Cause you know I’m in a hurry.

 

Physical attraction, physical attraction,

Physical attraction, physical, It’s just physical.

 

(These deep and meaningful relationships are a thing of the past! )

END OF THE WORLD

Diane McNamara & Doug McNamara ©2023

 

Markets crashing

Viral bashing

Germ Mutations

Testing rations

Toxic Dumping

Bible thumping 

Wall St. jumping

Hopefuls stumping

Cellphone spying

Leaders lying

Masses buying

Hoarding, crying

Deacons yelling                   Christian ranking

Religion selling                    Preachers banking

Is this the beginning of the end of the world?

Is this the beginning of the end of the world?

 

Produce rotting

Food allotting

People starving

Empire carving

Hate stirring

Pain inuring

Dissent quelling

Emotions welling

Forests burning

Hurricanes swirling

Social distance

No one listens

Truth fading             Story spinning

Ruin waiting             Lies winning

Is this the beginning of the end of the world?

Is this the beginning of the end of the world?

Is this the beginning of the end of the world?

 

 

Lines between the truth and lies are blurred

Most revered of icons have been purged

Is this earth destruction well deserved

Is this the beginning of the end of the world

 

Glaciers melting

Cities sweltering

Earth quaking

Builders faking

Tyrant backing

Morals lacking

Congress trashing             

Window smashing

Banks failing

Savers wailing

Adults looting

Children shooting

Armies killing           Cyber trolling

Blood spilling           Knells tolling

Is this the beginning of the end of the world

Is this the beginning of the end of the world
