THE PLUMBER AND THE PAINTER 1975

The Sun was shining brightly,
As it penetrated the L.A. haze.
Love was felt so strongly,
On this our best of days.
It was the glorious summer,
The celebrated summer of 75.
The Old Guard was so vibrant,
The sensational sixties came alive.
Joyous life was worth living,
Our truth was never wrong.
We'll dance one last dance,
We'll sing one last song.
The plumber asked the painter,
What his life was going to be.
From my side of the paper,
May your life be long and free.
They were going on a journey,
We were seen at the station.
Both the left and the right,
Of a chosen generation.
Happiness and satisfaction,
Characterized their chosen way.
The McCarthur Park Party,
Was years ago today.
Yesterday was full of memories,
Euphoric scenes and stacatto sounds.
Life was brain and hustle,
As we made computer rounds.
The plumber asked the painter,
What his life was going to be.
From my side of the paper,
May your life be long and free.
