Posted on by admin

LYRICS
If life is like a bowl of lemons
Do you grow tired of sour sermons
If someone hands you a cherry
Does the amount of pits every vary
It seems to me the simile
Compares to life too simply
If the world is but a stage
Does it depend upon your age
Are you caught up in the rat race
Growing older… try to keep pace
It seems to me the analogy
Compares to life too simply
Same old story: ring around the rosie
When I die, fill my pockets with posies
Life is but a dream, we sing the round
Ashes to ashes, we all fall down
It seems there must be more
Than life as a metaphor

LYRICS
If you want to open your eyes
There’s a big surprise
Cross your t’s and dot your i’s
It’s time to arise
Institution
Revolution
Solution fusion
Too many cooks in the kitchen
Too much belly achin’ bitchin’
Your works need lubrication
We’ll overcome all that friction

If you want to overcome your situation
Cross your heart and you’ll acquire imagination

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Pondering what this world is about
Will it turn my insides out
Does She know who I really am
Does She know what comes from within

Is your life a fairy tale
Does it end in pass of fail?
Can you forget all you regret
Can you forgive the way you live

Is your impression major depression
Or do you turn sick to manic
How about a lifelong jam session
Deep and thick long-live music

Let’s take what we’ve got and make it a lot
Carefree and happily enjoying the “Be”
Let no regret vet all worries forgot
Clear path and blue sky is all we see

LYRICS
Hey, hey, hey
I don’t know what to say
The heat and humidity
Is drying up humanity
Is frying up our sanity
We’re melting away
Tell me what to do
To help us pull through
From the demise of me and you
We can arise and start anew

Hey, hey, hey
The dawning of a the day
Fading of vanity
Curing of insanity
We’re here to stay

LYRICS
Enough of me, my, mine
All the time
Wonder if mankind
Is doing fine?
This planet that we bent
It’s time to pay the rent
The message that we sent
Wonder if it went
(I don’t know
Did it go?)

If this is our final hour
Let us muster the power
If we could get it together
Prolong the chance of forever
What’s up with vinegar and piss
What’s up with all of this?
Possibly we could mend
Before bringing on “The End”
The End

LYRICS
Everyone stands
Clap your hands
Crisis demands you raise your voice
Hit the street
Stomp your feet
To the beat make some noise

Elevation of the situation
Population illumination

In a race to put smile to face
Dreams we chase actualize
Heaven on Earth is our birth
Open my eyes… realize

Join the band and understand
Crisis demands you raise your voice
Hit the note rock the boat
Cast your vote to make some noise

LYRICS
I’ve got a secret to share with you
You can do what you set your mind to
You can make your dreams come true
Really just a matter of what you do

Why not clear your thought and take a deep breath in
Exhale a wail… let the show begin

I’ve got a secret I’d love to share
You’ve got a spirit trapped in there
Can you see you can set it free
Just a matter of wanting to be

I’ve a secret I just can’t keep
Out from my lips it’s going to seep
I can’t stand to lose more sleep
The meaning of life is oh so deep

LYRICS
What a beautiful day
In more than one way
Wouldn’t you say
What a beautiful day
What do you say
Grab your guitar… let’s play
Sun is shining bright
Not a cloud in sight
We’ll create musical delight

Sky’s true blue
Pure is the hue
Know what to do?
A point-of-view
We can see through
Playing the blues… for you

One step at a time
Pretty soon you’ll find
Climbing the steps of time
One step at a time
Pretty soon you’ll find
Climbing stairs to aware
One step at a time

A letter at a time
Pretty soon you’ll find
Writing a love letter
A letter at a time
Pretty soon you’ll find
She’s in you heart if you let her
A letter at a time

One note at a time
Pretty soon you’ll find
It won’t be long
One note at a time
Hope to write a song
Where I lay it on the line
One note at a time

LYRICS
Might make you tall
Might make you small
… likely do nothing at all
Bouncing off the looking glass
Watch your life pass (fast outlast)
There is no error
Reflection in the mirror
It’s just the verse
In reverse
Looking toward backward

Might make you fat
Or short and squat
What?
Likely just the fact
If you drop and shatter
Does matter
7 years of bad luck
Responsibility duck
It’s all in you hands
Who truly understands

LYRICS
Take it to the chin
Again and again
Gonna take it to the chin
Argh… where to begin
I was just thinking
Of differing
Ding. Ding. Ding.
Before it starts raining
Should we start bringing it in
Should we begin
I was just thinking
Of differing
Ding. Ding. Ding.
Ring the bell
Just as well
Again and again
Begin doing
Thinking of differing
Diffusion illusion
Exaggeration deflation
I’m thinkin’ of differin’

LYRICS
Another one down?
Ate his fate… damn
Another one down
Former class clown
Dread being dead
Dread not being
In meaning
In essence
In presence
No presence no essence
Essentially
Lacking reality
A ghost at most
Just a shell dyin’ in hell
None for me
More life to see
More me to be
F.U. to mortality
Soaring toward eternity
The present of essence in the present
Essence presence
Sense the essence of the presence of our present

LYRICS
The miraculous us
They say vertebrae
Overlord of the membrane domain
Our naturalness
In the foray
Of the sane that remain

The infamous us
Destroyer of destiny
Overlord of the membrane domain
Selfishness fetish
Lost in the foray
Of the insane that remain

Are we the miraculous army
Are we?
In support of Earth’s birth
Are we are we are we are
Destroyer of destiny or more man-made humanity
Less terra terror
Become the bearer
Of “are we”
Epitome of are we
Are we are we are we are….
May the legacy of “we are” go far
… down in history
Are we are we are we
We are we are we are

LYRICS
Is you core
Like Earth’s core
Is your heart dense, cold, hard
Or is it molten and meltin’
Cold with the feel of steel
Dense, hard, cold
Growing old
Done all your feeling and feltin’
Or belt down… bowed down… kneltin’
Humblin’ human
Aspiring
Before I’m dyin’
Aspiring
To obtain less vain
Ego crumblin’ more humblin’
n’ put sanity into my humanity
Eyeing I’ing
Can eye see me
Eying I’ing
At my core
Is there more
Hope it doesn’t take all my transpiring
Eyeing I’ing
