Silent Witness (Music & Lyrics by Bruce Mack. Written Oct. 17, 2018) One summer the universe kissed me, Like glory in heaven’s back yard So much joy it scared me I braced for the ground to be charred But things changed! Things change Like black squirrels in White Plains On the first cool night of the season All was gonna be grand Then Rain dropped in my coffee And no mosquito wants to be my friend But things changed! Things change Like black squirrels in White Plains People that gave themselves to the world Were just dying And all the blessings in my life For a minute didn’t seem worth it But things changed! Things change Like black squirrels in White Plains Nature is actually the silent witness to intuition I knew something was coming Cause the dirt in the ground stirred up And told me so.

Sister Space Shifter (words & music by Bruce Mack) She's a Space shifter,  Time-lapse-phase-drifter,  global-dust-sifter, Always spraying mist of artistic haze  In my alternate universe You blaze the Galaxy on the one  You set fire to all funk rifters. You be do in' it, doin' it, doin' it! (You so funky lady) CHORUS: Melody... From your blue-skywalkestra You empower us Sister one-eye-sees-all  You be doin' it, doin' it, doin' it (Oh, you so funky, lady) CHORUS: melody The head has just been played! Now hit me with your rhythm tricks So I can step up and scat this fire you inspired Sister space shifter...

No words. Just melody.
