JUST FAKE NEWS
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown
Please tell me what I've been hearing is nothin' but gossip fake news
Erroneous conversation that simply isn't true
fictitious, false, mistaken, fabricated lies fake news
CHORUS
I heard it through the grapevine she's leaving me
But Donald Trump told me it's just fake news
Now I'm asking y'all is the President telling the truth
Is her leaving me just fake news
Not sure what I should be believin'
Hear everything these days is just fake news
But why would her best friends be sayin' something that isn't true
And my heart is afraid to be knowin' the gossip really ain't fake news
REPEAT CHORUS

Falling Again in Love
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown
(socan)
He said well hello stranger you're not in any danger
I am your romance ranger sent from up above
How would you like to fall with me in love
She said it sounds quite crazy you fancy romancin' baby
I might take a chance well maybe I feel an urge kind of
Could be I might just fall with you in love
CHORUS
Could we be impending to take the fall
Is the handwriting on the wall
Perhaps it is fate, just maybe we're Soul Mates
Through the door of a far place from antiquity's hunger of
Could be we might just fall again in love
Life is a bit confusing love is even more perplexing
Renovated with magic moments which makes Souls touch sort of
Forever assure hearts fall again in love

Lucky Me
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
Falling in love is delicious not at all inauspicious
Yesteryear I was sad and lonely a sorrowful fancy free

You don't look like a boy you're the real mcCoy a mademoiselle a girl
Then she said I was oh so sweet Lucky me
CHORUS
She is one of a kind now I live on cloud nine
In paradise, seventh Heaven lucky me
She's all my heart needs, yours truly agrees, lucky me
It's been forty years come December, just like yesterday I remember
My loving wife is the light of my life and the lock that wiggles my key
She's the melody that sparks my heartbeat lucky me

The Flame
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
Verse 1
I guess it goes to show with Love you just don't know
Just when our fire got warm you chose to go
You walked away and you left my Soul ablaze
With never a chance for me to ever put out the Flame
CHORUS
And why does this fire keep on burning in my Soul
With nothin' left but ashes in yours
And why does your memory stay wrapped around my pain
With never a chance to ever put out the Flame
turnaround
Verse 2
I always thought we were the perfect match
The kind of Love that would most surely last
But you waltzed out and you left my Soul ablaze
With never a chance for me to ever put out the Flame
CHORUS
And why does this fire keep on burning in my Soul
With nothin' left but embers in yours
And why does your memory stay wrapped around my pain
With never a chance to ever put out the Flame

Whiskey Bottle
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
VERSE 1
Well here we are again just you and me tonight
But the glow from within your white lightning ain't feeling right
And I almost feel like crying but my head is turned around
And the rainclouds in my eyes don't feel like falling down
If only you could see me through just one more day
'Cause ever since she's been gone it's you that I rely upon
But I guess there ain't no magic formula within your tinted glass
And there ain't no way to erase a broken past
CHORUS
So mister whiskey bottle go away and leave me be
Don't ya know just how much you're hurting me
Take your pain, take your sorrow and take your misery as well
Please mister whiskey bottle I don't wanna live in hell
VERSE 2
I guess the time has come for me to face myself
Because in the end you and all your friends will just be empty crystal shells.
And lately all you seem to bring to me is more hurtin' on my mind
And a sorrow inside my heart that words cannot describe
REPEAT CHORUS key change
So please mister whiskey bottle go away and leave me be
Don't ya know just how much you're hurting me
Take your pain, take your sorrow and take your misery as well
Please mister whiskey bottle I don't want to live in hell
Please mister whiskey bottle please don't make me live in hell

The End of Our Story
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
Never know when it will end
We all think we're invincible and we all pretend
That our earthly life's will never end
And is that void in our eyes really the end of our story
Don't know why we worry about
Esoteric things we can not control life is just a dream
An illusion's whim or so it seems
And is the done when we die really the end of our story
CHORUS
No I don't think it's the end of our story
I think our story never ends
Sleep in peace is just an illusion
You'll rest a while then open your eyes
To a magical new adventure
An again beginning at the end our the story
Ever wonder what's it about
Marionette's twirling pirouettes and we speculate
What blossoms beyond our mortal fate
And are our loved one's goodbye really the end of our story
No it's not really the end of our story
"cause our story never ends
Sleep in peace is just an illusion
You'll rest a while then open your eyes
To a magical new adventure
An again beginning at the end of our story
No it's not the end of our story
"cause our story never ends
Sleep in peace is just an illusion
You'll rest a while then open your eyes
To a magical new adventure
An again beginning at the end of our story

Whatever you give – you get back even more so.

Simply I Love You
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
I love you are the words I would choose when saying I would see her later
But now she's turned God's key entered the mystery so suddenly and unexpectedly
With no warning sign and only enough time to say I love you.
CHORUS
I had just enough time to tell her I love her
Only enough time to tell how much she's meant to me
But don't wait till it's almost too late
Tell her you love her every hour of every day
The only words to creation's tune are simply I love you
Guess I should rest assured the last words she heard
From my lips were I love you
And then she turned to our Lord opened Heaven's door

So magically and gloriously
And the last words she heard while ascending through were I Love you.
And the last words she heard while ascending through were I Love you

A Reflection of Me
Words and Music by Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
Didn't know what I should do
Didn't wanna look like a fool
I knew I was in love with her
But I didn't know what to do
Couldn't go on pretending she loves' me too
So one day I followed her home
Got brave dialed her up on the phone
I asked her if maybe she
Would wanna go out with me
I could then begin to beget love's seed
CHORUS
I told her that her smile was one of a kind
And if she wants to kiss me I don't mind
But a voice from inside say's she's out of my league
So I pleaded I begged I asked God please
Color her heart in a reflection of me
She's here beside me again today
Looks like I may have made the grade
She said I just might be the guy
To promenade her down the isle
My heart's tuned to hers and hers is harmonized to mine
CHORUS
I told her that her smile was one of a kind
And if she wants to kiss me I don't mind
And whadda you know well just that
My pleading my begging my asking God please
Colored her heart with a reflection of me

Canada is my Country it's the place that I call home
It's a beautiful undisputable gem of the great white North

We're surrounded by three awesome oceans the Pacific Atlantic and Arctic, and our southern neighbors in the U.S.A. Oh Canada my home

Archie Diablo Demize and Vitoria Veritas Vanitas
Words and Music by Kenneth Francis Flaherty BMI and Richard Melvin Brown SOCAN
Verse
Two skeletons buried in Mexico
Somewhere south of Monterrey
One life they shared not too long ago
In a place not so far away
Archie "Diablo" Demize
And Vitoria "Veritas" Vanitas
He was a fun-loving, handsome guy
She was a beautiful brilliant senorita
Chorus
They are buried six feet deep
In a peaceful eternal sleep
There they lay side by side
Where they still silently confide
The message that they give
To the rest who get to live
Live each moment like it's your last
The time between life and death goes fast
Verse
Two skeletons laughing in Mexico
While we pace and fret and stress
So soon before it's your time to go
And you leave behind your mess
So take some time and have some fun
And have a few margaritas
You'll be six feet deep and away from the sun
Just like Archie and Mrs. Vanitas
REPEAT Chorus
(c) 2016/2020 Kenneth Francis Flaherty and Richard Melvin Brown
