Ricky Rochelle - All She Needs
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
I don't miss her 'cause she was mean
and put spells on me with her sorcery
She dragged me out wavin' like a queen
But she's a total witch and
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
I don't need that hag summoning me
and stealing my soul for the demons to feed
Old and alone, she'll be stroking her cat
and I'm completely cool with that
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
Now she's tricked someone new to sip her toxic and bubbling brew
And as he takes a drink, watch him start to shrink
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah
All she needs is a broom to ride on
A broom to ride on, yeah.

Yeti in the Snow

Ricky Rochelle - Yeti in the Snow
High on a hill lives the king of all creatures
He foams at the mouth and has grizzly features
He sharpens his teeth on the bones he’s collected
From people who've hiked until they got dissected
The cave that he’s chosen
is frigid and frozen
No, you don't wanna know
The yeti in the snow
Yeti in the snow
Evenings at dusk from the slopes to the valley
The monster attacks and the town keeps a tally
of bodies he's twisted
They doubt he existed
No, you don't wanna know
The yeti in the snow
Yeti in the snow
The yeti in the snow
Yeti in the snow
Up on the mountain in icy Tibet
The most savage beast hunts without regret
Don’t climb up the peak 'cause if you get lost
He’ll tear off your head to feast in the frost
The yeti in the snow (hey, hey!)
Yeti in the snow (hey, hey!)
The yeti in the snow (hey, hey!)
Yeti in the snow (hey, hey!)
Hooah!

Ricky Rochelle - Speedy Jackrabbit
When I lived in the forest, couldn't see it for the trees
Till I ran right into one and it knocked me to my knees
My eyes suddenly widened and my head was filled with light
Then came down a colorful balloon, it was an awesome sight
I hopped into the basket, revved the burner up with ease
And as I lifted off the ground, I felt a lighter breeze
I watched my problems fade away into the atmosphere
I saw them shrink before my eyes and finally disappear
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon
Flying high so I won't be coming down soon
Enjoying the view while I'm singing this tune
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon
A rabbit's work is never done, there's no time to unwind
Always rushing everywhere but was still a hare behind
I'm floating above Bunnyland where they all look like ants
While they're stuck in their rabbit holes, I get a second chance
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon
Flying high so I won't be coming down soon
Enjoying the view while I'm singing this tune
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon
A wonderful revelation hit me on my fling
I'm finally in the moment and appreciating things
I think of you while mesmerized by the white glow of the moon
Are you a speedy jackrabbit? Come hop in my balloon!!
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon
Flying high so I won't be coming down soon
Enjoying the view while I'm singing this tune
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon (Flying high...)
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon
Flying high so I won't be coming down soon
Enjoying the view while I'm singing this tune
I'm a speedy jackrabbit on a hot air balloon.

Ricky Rochelle - Exceptionally Loved
You smile each time you say my name to your friends on the phone
You say that I'm your favorite guy that you've ever known
I wonder how I ever made you feel the way you do
But one thousand kisses prove they'll still be more from you
I've never felt like this before
The way you show me makes me sure
I'll always be exceptionally loved
And now I know that it's all true
I’m happiest when I’m with you
I'll always be exceptionally loved
You pick out all the perfect shows as we binge watch Hulu
And in the car you sing with me to blink-182
You cheered me on a hundred times through all my crazy schemes
You're the reason why I reached beyond my wildest dreams
I've never felt like this before
The way you show me makes me sure
I'll always be exceptionally loved
And now I know that it's all true
I’m happiest when I’m with you
I'll always be exceptionally loved
I realize every day you make me lucky as can be
I promise to give you the highs that you've given to me
I've never felt like this before
The way you show me makes me sure
I'll always be exceptionally loved
And now I know that it's all true
I’m happiest when I’m with you
I'll always be exceptionally loved
La, la, la, loved, la la la loved
La, la, la, loved, la la la loved.

Brighter Trail

Ricky Rochelle - Brighter Trail
Here in the woods, there’s a way ‘round the lake
It was made just for us and the footprints we’ll make
On brush covered ground that the roots call their home
We climb over the rocks with excitement we roam
Inspired thoughts come with songs of the birds
And the small buzzing insects who speak without words
Ahead of us, butterflies share their first dance
They show us that it’s worth it to take a new chance
We blaze a brighter trail on a path our own
Wandering together towards the great unknown
On a search for peace in discovery
We blaze a brighter trail for you and me
Look to the clouds as they travel with grace
Floating over the earth, guiding us in this place
In limitless skies where there’s no fear of heights
Will we soar above all when our dreams are in flight?
We blaze a brighter trail on a path our own
Wandering together towards the great unknown
On a search for peace in discovery
We blaze a brighter trail for you and me
And when we lose our way
In darkness, the trees will sway
But keep sight of the light of day
We blaze a brighter trail on a path our own
Wandering together towards the great unknown
On a search for peace in discovery
We blaze a brighter trail for you and me.

I'm a Jerk

Ricky Rochelle - I’m a Jerk
I’m on a tear and bein’ dumb
Makin’ jokes of everyone
Without a sign of slowin’ down
I can hear what they say
But I drink the night away
Feels like my feet don’t touch the ground
Cause I’m a jerk, I’m a jerk
And it doesn’t work
I’m a real bad guy and I’m wastin' my time
Now I need to make a change
To save myself from my own ways
Cause I’m a jerk
My pride and vanity
Feed the insanity
Can’t fit my ego through the door
I'm strugglin' everywhere
My friends don’t even care
I guess I’ll go and make some more
Cause I’m a jerk, I’m a jerk
And it doesn’t work
I’m a real bad guy and I’m wastin' my time
Now I need to make a change
To save myself from my own ways
Cause I’m a jerk
If this were my last day
It would mean everything
I'll win by fixin' me
Until then I will sing...
I’m a jerk, I’m a jerk
And it doesn’t work
I’m a real bad guy and I’m wastin' my time
Now I need to make a change
Cause I’m a jerk, I’m a jerk
And it doesn’t work
I’m a real bad guy and I’m wastin' my time
Now I need to make a change
To save myself from my own ways
Cause I’m a jerk!!

Ricky Rochelle - The Best Damn Feeling
Lying around with you
Inside my bedroom
Another typical Saturday night
But in the moment when
Your smile goes to my head
Sensation strikes and I get mesmerized
You hit like a rush of love
When sparks light up your eyes
It makes me high
I get the best damn feeling
When you squeeze my hand
I’m in wonderland
I get the best damn feeling
We go for coffee and
We make the perfect blend
Tasting the sweetness in that kiss on your lips
Tonight I look to see
You resting your head on me
That’s when I feel the hair stand on my skin
You hit like a rush of love
When sparks light up your eyes
It makes me high
I get the best damn feeling
When you squeeze my hand
I’m in wonderland
I get the best damn feeling
Is there more that's in this moment?
Cause you say you're in it too
It’s when we both share this feeling
That we can see what’s coming true...
When sparks light up your eyes
It makes me high
I get the best damn feeling
When you squeeze my hand
I’m in wonderland
I get the best damn feeling
Sparks light up your eyes
It makes me high
I get the best damn feeling
When you squeeze my hand
I’m in wonderland
I get the best damn feeling
Yeah!!

Ricky Rochelle - Don’t Put the Chimp in Charge
Have you heard the primate escaped the zoo?
Can’t let him make a monkey outta you
The police sketched out his hairy face
He broke into NASA to go to space
The chimpanzee’s missin’
He’s out on a mission
And wants to fly the ship to Mars
Don’t put the chimp in charge!
I don’t wanna be around
When the rocket hits the ground
I don’t wanna hear a sound
Don’t put the chimp in charge
He’s a dummy, he’s a dope
He’s a monkey on a rope
If you want there to be hope
Don’t put the chimp in charge
Now he’s screeching orders from the cockpit
He’s demanding a cold banana split
He isn’t smart but he’s got a peel
Just keep him far away from the wheel
The chimpanzee’s wishin’
He’ll make television
I wanna see him behind bars
Don’t put the chimp in charge!
I don’t wanna be around
When the rocket hits the ground
I don’t wanna hear a sound
Don’t put the chimp in charge
He’s a dummy, he’s a dope
He’s a monkey on a rope
If you want there to be hope
Don’t put the chimp in charge
The police busted in the door with bats and cuffs
That’s when that monkey had had enough
He escaped the launch pad, got a job and went to work
He became the boss and a bigger jerk
Don't put the chimp in charge!
I don’t wanna be around
When the rocket hits the ground
I don’t wanna hear a sound
Don’t put the chimp in charge
He’s a dummy, he’s a dope
He’s a monkey on a rope
If you want there to be hope
Don’t put the chimp in charge
I don’t wanna be around
When the rocket hits the ground
I don’t wanna hear a sound
Don’t put the chimp in charge
He’s a dummy, he’s a dope
He’s a monkey on a rope
If you want there to be hope
Don’t put the chimp in charge.

Love Is Mad

Ricky Rochelle - Love is Mad
We laugh for hours on the phone - and I love it
The clock hands spin when we're lost in our own time zone
It's been months and months since we've been sighted by our friends
You've got me feelin' crazy but I don't want it to end
Love is mad, love is mad, love is mad
But it’s the best madness I’ve ever had
'Cause I love, love, love, L-O-V-E you!
It's insane how you read my mind - but I love it
Your psychic powers see what I think all the time
I'm feelin' euphoric in this dreamy altered state
When I'm walkin' down the street I levitate
Love is mad, love is mad, love is mad
But it’s the best madness I’ve ever had
'Cause I love, love, love, L-O-V-E you!
I thought I knew 'bout love before
'Til I walked through your funhouse door
My sanity is one thing I'm not missing
Outside my window, elephants are kissing
No fantasy's too weird or feeling too great
When I wake up with you, my heart inflates
Love is mad, love is mad
But it’s the best madness I’ve ever had
'Cause I love, love, love...
Love is mad, love is mad, love is mad
But it’s the best madness I’ve ever had
'Cause I love, love, love, L-O-V-E you!
Love is mad, love is mad
Love is mad, love is mad
Love is mad, love is mad
Love is mad, love is mad.

You Are My Heart

Ricky Rochelle - You Are My Heart
On Saturday we hiked the woods because it felt like Spring
We walked along a sunny trail with you leading the way
I reached inside my pocket and you laughed, “What did you bring?”
I took a moment for a deep breath then I knew exactly what to say
Your eyes filled up with happiness
When my knee hit the sand
I couldn't stop smiling
While reaching for your hand
I couldn't be me without you
My pulse wouldn't beat without you
You are my heart, you are my heart
You know I'm truly devoted
And when you said “Yes!” I floated
You are my heart, you are my heart
I pledged a life of friendship, lots of love and loyalty
I watched you cry those tears of joy and we felt so good
There were no paparazzi but we felt like royalty
I can't believe that it felt better than I ever could have dreamed it would
I couldn't be me without you
My pulse wouldn't beat without you
You are my heart, you are my heart
You know I'm truly devoted
And when you said “Yes!” I floated
You are my heart, you are my heart
You’re my smile when I wake up
The last kiss before we sleep
You’re the rhyme, you're the reason
That I could ever take this leap
I couldn't be me without you
My pulse wouldn't beat without you
You are my heart, you are my heart
You know I'm truly devoted
And when you said “Yes!” I floated
You are my heart, you are my heart
You are my heart, you are my heart.
