I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break all the chains holding me
I wish I could say all the things that I should say
Say 'em loud, say 'em clear
For the whole round world to hear

Agathe von Trapp : 12 March 1913 – 28 December 2010
The hills are alive with the sound of music
With songs they have sung for a thousand years
The hills fill my heart with the sound of music
My heart wants to sing every song it hears

Don Van Vliet : januari 15 1941 - december 17 2010
The morning was distemper grey,
Of the thousandth and tenth day of the human totem pole.
The man at the bottom was smiling.
He had just finished his breakfast smiling.
It hadn't rained or manured for over two hours.
The man at the top was starving.
The pole was a horrible looking thing
With all of those eyes and ears
And waving hands for balance.
There was no way to get a copter in close
So everybody was starving together.
The man at the top had long ago given up
But didn't have nerve enough to climb down.At night the pole would talk to itself and the chatter wasn't too good.
Obviously the pole didn't like itself, it wanted to walk!
It was the summer and it was hot
And balance wouldn't permit skinning to undergarments.
It was an integrated pole, it was taking on an reddish brown cast.
Exercise on the pole was isometric,
Kind of a flex and then balance
Then the highest would roll together,
The ears wiggle, hands balance.
There was a gurgling and googling heard
A tenth of the way up the pole.
Approaching was a small child
With Statue of Liberty doll.

Where love is free, to hell with hate

When you're waiting for a voice to come
In the night and there is no one
Ah don't you feel like crying?
(Cry to me!)

But when I try to love the girls
They laugh at me and run

See my kite, it's fun
See my kite, it's green and white
All that's between us is a little yellow string
But we like each other more than anything
And we'd like to be a zillion miles away from everyone
Cause Mom and Dad and Uncle Bill don't realise
Kites are fun, kites are fun, kites are fun
Kites are fun

In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders of every glove that laid him down
Or cut him 'til he cried out in his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving."
But the fighter still remains

You want me to act like we've never kissed
You want me to forget, pretend we've never met
And I've tried and I've tried, but I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces
