Marco's 9th B'day Pool Party featuring Essra Mohawk's "Love Is Still The Answer"

A great day for my son Marco and friends - Andrew, Brian, Jack, Joe, Kieran, Liam, Matt, Michael, Peter and Ryan - at his 9th Birthday party. The kids had fun and Long Island's weather was beautiful that day.

Thanks to Steven and Michael, cousin Antoinette, brother Luke plus the adorable Julia, Victoria and Ava. Also, BIG thanks to the Moms - Anne, Gina, Jennifer and Maria - who pulled it off very nicely.

"Love Is Still the Answer" is by legendary secret diva Essra Mohawk - https://www.facebook.com/ESSRAMOHAWK.FanPage - who's written for Cyndi Lauper (Change of Heart), Tina Turner (Stronger Than The Wind), Lisa Fischer (So Intense), etc. and sang School House Rock's "Interjections," "Sufferin' Till Suffrage" and "Mother Necessity," etc.

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER

IS IT MY IMAGINATION OR DID THE WORLD CHANGE OVERNIGHT
IS IT ALL A FABRICATION WILL IT FALL APART UNDER THE LIGHT
ARE THE PEOPLE MOVING FURTHER AND FURTHER AWAY FROM WHAT IS RIGHT
HAS LOVE REALLY BECOME JUST ANOTHER FOUR LETTER WORD

WAS THE WORLD'S CREATION JUST ONE OF THOSE FRIVOLOUS THINGS
EXPERIMENTATION AT THE EXPENSE OF HUMAN BEINGS
IS ESCAPE THE ONLY REASON FOR ANGELS TO HAVE WINGS
HAS LIFE REALLY BECOME AN EXCERCIZE OF THE ABSURD

WELL THEN WHY HAVEN'T I CHANGED LIKE THE REST
HOW COME I STILL BELIEVE EVERYTHING'S FOR THE BEST
HOW COME I HAVEN'T CHANGED LIKE SO MANY OTHERS
I STILL BELIEVE ALL MEN ARE BROTHERS

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
ALL THE REST ARE LIES
LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
LOVE IS STILL THE PRIZE

IS IT SUCH A MYSTERY WHY IS EVERYONE SO CONFUSED
TAKE A LOOK AT HISTORY AND THE PATTERNS THAT WE ALWAYS CHOOSE
RISING AND FALLING, NEVER MAINTAINING
HAVEN'T WE PAID OUR DUES
DON'T YOU THINK THAT IT'S ABOUT TIME FOR THE GOLDEN AGE

YOU DON'T NEED GUINESS TO TELL YOU
THERE'S A FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING
DO BEES REMIND YOU OF HONEY OR DO YOU ONLY FEAR THEIR STING
I WOULD BET ALL OF MY MONEY THAT THE PENDULUM'S GONNA SWING
AND THE WORD IS ONLY GOING THROUGH A STAGE

BECAUSE WHY HAVEN'T I CHANGED LIKE THE REST
HOW COME I STILL BELIEVE EVERYTHING'S FOR THE BEST
HOW COME I HAVEN'T CHANGED LIKE SO MANY OTHERS
I STILL BELIEVE ALL MEN ARE BROTHERS

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
ALL THE REST ARE LIES
LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
LOVE IS STILL THE PRIZE

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
ALL THE REST ARE LIES
LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
LOVE CAN STILL LEAD US TO PARADISE, PARADISE...

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
ALL THE REST ARE LIES
LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
LOVE IS STILL THE PRIZE

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
ALL THE REST ARE LIES
LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
LOVE CAN STILL LEAD US TO PARADISE, PARADISE...

LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
ALL THE REST ARE LIES
LOVE IS STILL THE ANSWER
LOVE IS STILL THE PRIZE
