My thoughts on lyrics are that they are secondary. A song should be more about the melody and the feel than the lyrics. If you care about words and their meaning then read a book. This probably explains why I find it difficult to write lyrics because my musical ideas usually start with a melody or riff.
Here are lyrics from the album "Now Appearing at the Breakfast Show." (Not Complete)

Stone Cold Stare by Aaron Bagchee
You know a girl like you
Should watch the things you do
The way you comb your hair
And wear the clothes you wear
Every time I see you there
Silly thoughts flow through my head
That Girl with the stone cold stare
You know she's got the fascination
That stirs contemplation
My eyes rolled up her thigh
She's about to blow my mind
Every time she shakes and bakes
My heart she's going to break
That Girl with the hippie hippie shake
Every time I see her
She sends a shiver down my spine
If I don't get her
Man I tell you I can feel like dying
Fish In The Sea by Aaron Bagchee
Drink oh drink take my thinking away
Take me to a place that is far away
I am free you see, I am free
And one day will be among the fish in the sea
Do what I want when I'm on the drink
Never care what other people think
Sink into my own world under the sea
Seeking my freedom, seeking to be me
(Chorus)
In my drink all the fish want me
I'm losing all my sensibilities
Hey! Bartender I'll take one more round
I'm starting to see all these fishies around
A fish, a cod or maybe a whale
No need for wind, no need for sails
I'll have my fins, I'll have my gills
I'll find a fish and catch my thrills
(Chorus)
In my drink all the fish want me
I'm losing all my sensibilities
Hey! Bartender I'll take one more round
I'm starting to see all these fishies around
Red Hot Mama by Aaron Bagchee
Well I got a gal that I know so well
She lives in an old shack down in Watsonville
She's a Red Hot Mama
She's a Red Hot Mama, she do it to me everytime
Well she rock it to the east, she rock it to the west
And when she rock it south you know she rock it the best
She's a Red Hot Mama
She's a Red Hot Mama, she do it to me everytime
When me and my gal want to get our thrills
We get busy down in the strawberry fields
She's a Red Hot Mama
She's a Red Hot Mama, she do it to me everytime
When I want my gal to play with my pickle
I get her drunk at the Wooden Nickel
She's a Red Hot Mama
She's a Red Hot Mama, she do it to me everytime
When me and my gal want to get our fun
We cruise down the road on highway 1
She's a Red Hot Mama
She's a Red Hot Mama, she do it to me everytime
I Want You to Show Me by Aaron Bagchee
You say that you love me
You say that you need me too
You say that you want me
I want you to show me
You say you won't let me down
You say you won't fool around
But I need more that words you see
I want you to show me
You call me up on the telephone
Say that you're all alone
But your words don't mean much to me
I want you to come and show me
You say that your're trying
You say you ain't lying
But your words I ain't buying
I want you to show me
You always whisper sweet nothings to me
But you ain't fooling me
They say that love is blind
But I can see through you this time
I'll know when you love me
I'll know when you really care
I'll know when I'm the only one
I'll know when you show me
I'll know when you show me
I want you to show me
She Is Beautiful To Me by Aaron Bagchee
A while ago I met a girl
Who walks in little circle swirls
And dances on water
Upon the lipid pools of my world
I lift my head up to the sky
To watch float on by
With her purple wings
She dangles in my eyes
(chorus)
She is beautiful to me
Her touch her smile the way she makes me feel inside
Her touch her smile the way she makes me feel
Lavishly she makes me smile
when I sit and wonder why
She turns me on
And lights up my mind
And She is beautiful to me
She's beautiful to me
She's beautiful to me
And she holds the key to unlock the door
To look inside to see my soul
To look inside and see what goes
If she does it I hope so, oh, oh
A while ago I met a girl
Who walks in little circle swirls
And dances on water
Upon the lipid pools of my world
(chorus)
She is beautiful to me
Her touch her smile the way she lets me be me
Her touch her smile the way she lets me be
(chorus)
She is beautiful to me
Her touch her smile the way she makes me feel inside
Her touch her smile the way she makes me feel
Itty Bitty Titties by Aaron Bagchee
Some call 'em jugs, some call 'em knockers
The things you post in your high school locker
Everybody finds them so damn pleasin'
I like them big, the kind that jiggle
The kind that makes my third leg wiggle
So round so fully packed just right for squeezin'
I met a girl. She sure was pretty
Really stacked, she came from the city
Her tits were so big you needed jaws like an alligator
Well I took her home and pulled her a little closer
Gave her a kiss, we fell down on the sofa
She had a little suprise. I'll tell you about it later.
Well I copped a feel, I thought she was bluffin'
But all I pulled out was a bunch of stuffin'
Those things were so itty bitty I just ran.
I thought I found someone built like my mother
Instead I found someone built like my brother
Now she's gone and found herself another man.
(Chorus)
Her new guy, Ain't it a pity
He's gotta gal with the itty bitty titties
When he finds out she'll have hell to pay
I bet you he's thinking he's got more than a handful
But sorry buddy, you got less than a mouthful
You're goin' from double D's down to single A's
She went and treated me like a fool
The way she plays me like she do
She really had me believin'
Well wonder bras and breast implantations
It's a fad that's sweeping the nation
Just another women's ploy for deceivin'
(Chorus)
Her new guy, Ain't it a pity
He's gotta gal with the itty bitty titties
When he finds out she'll have hell to pay
I bet you he's thinking he's got more than a handful
But sorry buddy, you got less than a mouthful
You're goin' from double D's down to single A's
Go My Bail by Aaron Bagchee
She's black as night, a crack fiend
Just like a bad movie scene
Her friends used to call her Sister Morphine
She's in my nose, She's in my vein
Can't you see it's driving me insane
I'm so addicted, so drunked up
I used to drink from her loving cup.
I lost my mind now I'm doing time.
(Chorus)
She didn't go my bail (Feeling Lonely)
She didn't go my bail (Feeling Lonely)
etc...
Sitting back drinking six pack
I don't even know where my baby's at
She went out one Friday night
Didn't come back 'till the morning light
I know she was with her pusher man
She said I was a liar but I was on fire
I went downtown and I shot him down.
(Chorus)
She didn't go my bail (Feeling Lonely)
She didn't go my bail (Feeling Lonely)
etc...
It's 3am, I'm sitting alone in my cell
Six by Nine, a different kind of hell
I was wired. My heart was on fire.
She said she loved me
But you know she was a liar
Doing time for my crime
Now I'm down to my very last dime
I called her up on the telephone
But all I got was a busy tone
(Chorus)
She didn't go my bail (Feeling Lonely)
She didn't go my bail (Feeling Lonely)
etc...
What I Need by Aaron Bagchee
Have you ever felt so lonely
That you were your own best friend?
Have you ever felt so empty
That your soul just left and went?
(Chorus)
What I Need, Yeah What I Need
I've been walking this lonesome valley endlessly.
What I need is some salvation
Can you help me if you please?
A one way path to glory is what I need.
I've been beaten down, I've been tossed around
Till the pain don't seem real
If you only knew what I've been through
Then you'd know just how I feel
I've been led into temptation
Burning in eternal damnation
Stricken down by liars with the promise to take me higher
Kicked and bruised and shaken up
I've even felt like giving up
But nothing is going to faze me
Until someone comes and saves me
If you only knew what I've been through
Then you'd know just how I feel.
Have you ever felt so angry that your life was lost in sin?
If you only knew what I've been through
Then you'd know the kind of shape I'm in.
(Chorus)
What I Need, Yeah What I Need
I've been walking this lonesome valley endlessly.
What I need is some salvation
Can you help me if you please?
A one way path to glory is what I need.
Shame on Me, Shame on You By Aaron Bagchee
Shame on me for all my cheatin'
Shame on you for your mistreatin'
No matter, what we 're always crying and grievin'
No matter what we seem to do we always break in two
So shame on me and shame on you
There was a time when you were mine
And I'd always walk the line
And our love would always shine
But now it seems our love is going to die
(Chorus)
It's coming on like a tidal wave
And it won't be long till we're gonna say
There's nothing else that we can do
So shame on me and shame on you
Shame on me for never trying
Shame on you for always lying
No matter what, we end up fussing and fighting
No matter what we seem to do we just always wind up blue
So shame on me and shame on you
It won't be long till I'll be gone
And I'll wonder what went wrong
And I'll sing my sad song
It's just the calm before the storm
(Chorus)
It's coming on like a tidal wave
And it won't be long till we're washed away
And drifting alone on this ocean blue
So shame on me and shame on you
Mousetrap By Aaron Bagchee
In the dark of night the mouse does dare
To creep into our food and take its share
It nibbles on apples the walls dost chew
It sees the cheese if only it knew
Creeping along but all in vein
I've got something for you that'll make you scream in pain
I'll satisfy your hunger. I will make you sing.
Come over here mousy and loosen my spring
(Chorus)
I'm the mousetrap, I'm the mousetrap
I'm the mousetrap telling you lies take the bait and I'll watch you die
Nothing in the world can satisfy me
Like watching a mouse trying to get out alive
The mousies all know to call my name
I'm the mousetrap and killing's my game
(Chorus)
I'm the mousetrap, I'm the mousetrap
I'm the mousetrap telling you lies take the bait and I'll watch you die
She won't be back.
Edge of the Sea by Aaron Bagchee and Judy Woods
Who am I?
I am you. You are me.
Together we make the land and the sea.
Together we roam across this land
Across the sea, across the sand.
Heartbeats pound the shore
Endless and forevermore.
Will you meet me at the Edge of the Sea?
Together there we will be free.
This is the realization of our destination
Right through space and time
We will go where no one goes
We will know what no one knows
And it only goes to show
That's why...
I'm ready to fly
The feeling's right
Take me Tonight
Way in the sky take my hand
on this endless flight
Will you meet me at the Edge of Sea?
Together there we will be free.
Come join with me.
