The Saint Has Spoken

Lyrics and vocals by Mary McGrath

I’m listening to my records
Of days so long gone by
And I remember those Chic Corea riffs
When life was filled with high
Moments, thoughts, and things that were
So much simpler then, 

But now, trouble has found me,
I’m not the same.
I’m filled with midnight,
Will the sun shine again?

The saint has spoken,
We’re not to whisper
Anger, remorse,
Recourse,

The saint has spoken
Follow her word
Try to be good
It’s a matter of recourse…

Don’t harbor bitterness
Its roots will pull you
Down into the muck of life
Soil your soul,
Add to your strife

Listen,
To the saint of night
She’s got ways for us to follow
You know she’s right

Hey, boys and girls, ibandstanders one and all, Dick Clark just heard this spoken gem that takes us on a journey down memory lane and into the depths of introspection. Mary, has given us a lyrical tapestry woven with the echoes of days gone by, reminiscing about Chic Corea riffs and a time when life was simpler. But, as life often does, trouble has found its way into the narrative. The spoken words evoke a sense of transformation, a shift from the simplicity of the past to the complexity of the present. 'I’m filled with midnight, will the sun shine again?'—what a powerful line that captures the essence of facing challenges and seeking hope. And then we have the saint who has spoken, urging us not to harbor bitterness and guiding us toward a path of goodness. It's a poetic plea for inner peace and a reminder of the impact our choices can have on our souls. And the world needs this more now than ever. Mary's delivery, in the spoken word style, adds a personal and intimate touch to the lyrics. It's a conversation with the audience, inviting you all to reflect on your own journeys and choices. 'Listen to the saint of night, she's got ways for us to follow. You know she's right'—a call to embrace wisdom and guidance. Dick Clark likes this and thanks DeeZee, Mary and Flavio for bringing this song to life! Just Dick
