Don't Go All Hollywood On Me

© 2011 Mark Cote

You wanna sip champagne
while you're tossing big names
in the back of your limousine

a brown bag lunch
may not mean that much
to your French cuisine

Not so long ago
I think you know
where this is gonna go

(chorus) Don't go Hollywood
                Don't go Hollywood
                Don't go all Hollywood on me
                though it feels real good
                like you thought it would
                Don't go all Hollywood on me

we would sit in the sand
laughing hand in hand
while we looked at the stars

the stars in the sky
were the stars in your eyes
and the joke was on me

(chorus)

the lure of the lights
and the big city nights
the honey that drew you in

does it taste so sweet
do they fall at your feet
did you think you'd win

Not so long ago
I think you know
where this is gonna go

(chorus)

Where You Gonna Flow

shiny purple hot wheel
what makes your motor run
shiny purple hot wheel
what really turns you on
I'm hitchin' a ride on your street girl
where you gonna go

tiny little daydream
what makes your colors flow
tiny little daydream
baby you got to know
you're buzzing around me so sweetly
honeybee you get to me

(chorus) Where you gonna go
                where you gonna flow
                when my world hangs in the palm of your hand
                where you gonna flow

my heart is doing cartwheels
everywhere I go
my mind is like a pinwheel
in your breeze is where I blow
colored clouds come around
where you gonna flow

(chorus)

Don't Go All Hollywood On Me

All I need is a radio
to show me
which way to go

all I need is a happy vibe
to tell me
how I feel

(chorus) beautiful girl with the stained glass eyes
                 why don't you see me
                 see me
                 beautiful dream only in my mind
                 how do I reach to you
                 to you
                 ohhh.......

all I need is the tender words
and the silence
inside of me

to bring a tear to reality
and show me
how to heal

(chorus)

all I see a world from within
a world without
it's not a sin

climbed a mountain
got nothing to hold
what does it mean
what does it mean

(chorus)

I Don't Think That Way

© 2011 Mark Cote

I won't
say what you want me to say
follow when they walk that way
I don't think that way

I'm just
trying to keep it real
saying the way I feel
I don't think that way

(chorus) and I know
                I may travel the path alone
                but my heart's not cold as stone
                and by the time you think you know
                I'll be gone
                I don't think that way

I don't
color between the lines
the lines I draw are mine
and I'm not colorblind

and if
I don't dress the way you do
I see a different hue
I walk in different shoes


(bridge) 2 tone blurs of empty words
                try to feed complacency
                not the taste that I need
                just redundancy

(chorus)
