Twisted Lyrics

Song and Lyrics by Kellie Knight

Sister, I love you from a distance
I wanna kiss ya but it don’t feel right
You got me staring the spotlight
You got me staying up all night

Chorus

You got me twisted
Sister
Aint coming home till the morning light
You got me so damn
Crazy
I wanna love you but it don’t feel right

Standing on the corner at the diner near 9
You got me wound up, cause you are so fine
Wrote a tune,all consumed, her perfume, gonna play
The minor key the saxaphone the blues

Chorus

You got me twisted
Sister
Aint coming home till the morning light
You got me so damn
Crazy
I wanna love you but it don’t feel right

I’m in a dream thats yours not mine
walking in the streets to the jazz bar on shine avenue,
Feel the blues, thats the truth, cause i’m lonely
The minor key the saxaphone the blues

Chorus x 2

You got me twisted
Sister
Aint coming home till the morning light
You got me so damn
Crazy
I wanna love you but it don’t feel right

There’s Mr Jo Jo in the corner with his bone
The whisky on loan, the phones at home
Strange how the band play my song so i blow
'Cause i’m falling
The minor key the saxophone the blues

Chorus x 3

You got me twisted
Sister
Aint coming home till the morning light
You got me so damn
Crazy
I wanna love you but it don’t feel right

Big Bad Wolf In Town Lyrics

Song and Lyrics by Kellie Knight

Sweet Kinda beat on a warm summer day
Saw him slappin that big ol bass
And oh my my my heart skipped a beat
There he was playing in the street

He seemed so cool he be kinda neat
He got the rhythm tappin at his feet
But oh my my my mother said
Stay away from Big Bad Red

Chorus

But oh how they danced through the night till dawn came
( Sweet summer breeze the sun down through the trees)
And love never comes when your looking around
(But mumma that night it just happened to be)
And oh how he dazzled and charmed her till morning
(Sweet summer breeze the sun down through the trees )
The Big Bad Wolf’s in town
( But mumma that night it just happened to be)

She told me to go down the street
Go down to get your Grandmother a treat
But when he’s playing around the town
She gotta go and hear that sound
He got the groove in the dappled sunlight
She gonna be his afternoon delight
But oh my my my mother said stay away from Big Bad Red

Chorus

But oh how he knows her and feeds her her soul light
(Sweet summer breeze the sun down through the trees)
Although his white teeth make her feel kinda weak
( But mumma that night it just happened to be)
And yes, there’s unrest still the best kinda feelin
( Sweet summer breeze the sun down through the trees)
The Big Bad Wolf’s in town
( But mumma that night it just happened to be)

The Big Bad Wolf in town x 4

Everything is One Lyrics

Song and Lyrics by Kellie Knight

Its high time, you and i find, the divine inside, why we’re living this life
God knows, the truth isn’t told, the papers are lies and the TV super sized
These signs, of the times,the bribes, the illusion, conclusion its god damn delusion
I see the signs in your eyes, you don’t have to try and here’s the reason why

CHORUS
LOVE IS, IT’S CALLING, ADORNING TRANSFORMING YOUR NAME
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
BLACK & RED, YELLOW & WHITE ALL THE SAME
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
AND LOVE IS THE ONLY THING WORTH ALL THIS PAIN
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
BLACK OR RED, YELLOW OR WHITE NOT TO BLAME
everything is one, is one, is one, is one

It’s like this, why do we persist, resist, recognise, why we’re heading for the line
Sign says, take a left, unless, re-align, assess, why are we so depressed
Light beam, from the computer screen, it’s mesmorizing, compromising, pixels are blinding
Time to, relax, its true, chill the fuck out and let’s think things through

CHORUS

Bridge
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
Electric beams coming down on my parade
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
Anti social media messing with my brain
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
And i just want to feel we’re all the same
everything is one, is one, is one, is one
But there is evil out there, or so they claim

RAP
we can consume we find it enticing
but that aint no truth it’s only compromising
one day we’ll hopefully start realizing
that love is the only thing, aint no denying

Smack bang, that’s love, Satsang, feel it, believe it, the power to the people
We’re high, can you feel the vibes, the season, the reason, that’s love its just teasing
I’m yours, and you are mine, entwined in time your within my rhyme
I see the signs in your eyes, you don’t have to try and here’s the reason why.

CHORUS

Humanity Lyrics

Song and Lyrics by Kellie Knight

Have you read the news today, nothing much to say the price we’ll pay
All the lights are turned down low, and nobody’s home
Politician acting out, 10,000 people we’re standing our ground
All the rivers are flowing, glowing, but will we keep on going?

CHORUS
This wild world, turns around
Buildings burning, to the ground
We’re all in, the lost and found

Humanity
Got to get together care for this land

If we’re going to change
We’re gonna have to do it right now

Climate change, DNA re-arranged, we hit the age of the turning page
Corruption and greed, but also light and seed
Everyone talking war and peace, well which one will it be
Weather man floats on the breeze and guides me with the endless sea

Endless sea

CHORUS
This wild world, turns around
Buildings burning, to the ground
We’re all in, the lost and found

Humanity
Got to get together care for this land

If we’re going to change
We’re gonna have to do it right now

So let the people hear good news, dance away their troubled blues
If we can reach the moon, surely we can fly
Sing the stars, speak the truth, open the mind to the new
Refuse abuse, there’s nothing to loose, we the people are the rescue

CHORUS
This wild world, turns around
Buildings burning, to the ground
We’re all in, the lost and found

Humanity
Got to get together care for this land

If we’re going to change
We’re gonna have to do it right now

Red Wine Lyrics

Song and Lyrics by Kellie Knight

Chorus

His Kisses like, Red Wine
Under the starry sky
Could it be alright
Mr. Dream

His Kisses like, Red Wine
Over the, winter fire
Could it be all night
Mr. Dream

His Kisses like

She’s in the library, reading her fantasy
All around her the people subside and in this story
Kings and Queens
Magicians and thieves, in the night
Then the dawn arrives

Chorus

His Kisses like, Red Wine
Under the starry sky
Could it be alright
Mr. Dream

His Kisses like, Red Wine
Over the, winter fire
Could it be all night
Mr. Dream

His Kisses like

She’s on the streets in the city
All alone, staring at the sky
All the people around her subside and in her daydream
Later on, with her red boots on
He’ll pick her up, take her for a ride

Chorus
