My little steam train
Rolling down the tracks
My little steam train
Going to take me back
All aboard!
The conductor shouts
Hear that horn blow
Hear…

Wow . . . A perfect example of Aristotle's famous quote:
*The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts*
Nick, Paul, Bethan, I hope you find another opportunity to do this again.

Song inspired by listening to Nick Cave and reading all the bad news in the newspapers. Enjoy.
Lyrics and Music by yours truly, Nick Plagakis
Damn it’s cold, as I exit this road
Time is now to intoxicate the soul
Up high, private jets…
Absolute power corrupts absolutely....
Lyrics:
One cloudless night, freedom's candle was snuffed
Kicked and punched, gagged and cuffed
They took him away, for what he's not
Then cracked his skull, as a gesture for his…
Love song about strife in relationships....the song needs more work; gotta redo the vocals....nevertheless, I hope you enjoy it. Here are the lyrics:
Beyond the horizon,
The sun burns bright…
Absolute power corrupts absolutely....
Lyrics:
One cloudless night, freedom's candle was snuffed
Kicked and punched, gagged and cuffed
They took him away, for what he's not
Then cracked his skull, as a gesture for his…
This song was inspired by a long walk....
Lyrics:
Down by the river, down by the shore we go
The moon above cast a beautiful glow
We walked around talking through the night
I can’t help but think how it felt right
Hey Constance, don’t you feel…
This song is inspired by the struggles currently going on in Syria....here are the lyrics:
Out in the streets, an awakening has begun
You brandish posters, they point a gun
Scrawled on the pavement with blood and tears
Says we the people…
This is a song about questions, especially after experiencing the loss of someone special.....here are the lyrics:
Down past the bridge
By Saint Peter‘s church
She hums a prayer
Her eyes blue and bare
She’s longing for comfort…
Just a little something I've been tinkering with. Lyrics and Music from yours truly, Nick P
Am I fool to love you
Am I fool to love you
I'd drive 300 miles just to see your smile
Here I am, but you want that other man
Am I fool to love…
Cowardly Lion: Courage! What makes a king out of a slave? Courage! What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage! What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage…

Lyrics:
Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…

My contribution to this year's RPM Kitchen Challenge.
Very silly.
Well, can’t you see the baby’s crawling
And pulling up all by herself
I can’t imagine what will be falling
When she climbs up on the shelf
See how much she likes to…
A song about conspiracy theorists. They bug me with their wingeing. "Wah wah wah, it's not fair" - well do something about it then, instead of claiming some kind of superiority and secret knowledge like we give a damn! Rant over, lol.
A song about making choices.
Life moves in small steps
By the choices we all make.
We decide by will and pride
The path we'd like to take.
And the places we end up
And the people we will know
We'll see, you and me
By where we choose…

A story about the search for leader. People, independent as they are, often look for someone to tell them what to do. In their quest they will often go for a person who was just passing by and was never planing on leading anyone ... Things get…
This is a minor blues I wrote for the quintet Equilibrium in 2010. I wrote it to impress my red headed girlfriend who I had just started dating at the time.
