LYRICS
Asked one time
Asked tow times
Is this a put-on?
Asked once more
Just to make sure
Is this a put-on?

Come on Man
We can do better
Come on Man
Be the go getter
Get it on

Back again
For repeatin’
Is this a put-on?
The heat we store
Just how much more?
Is this a put-on?

Come on Man
We can do better
Come on Man
Be the go getter
Get it on

Still can’t believe
Forget conceive
Is this a put-on?
Burn fossil fuels
Till fossil fools
Is this a put-on?

Come on Man
We can do better
Come on Man
Be the go getter
Get it on

LYRICS
The glacier confessed
To complete defeat
Warming to retreat
The messed up
Is going down
Time to take a look around

The ocean on an acid trip
While the ‘bergs continue to drip, drip, drip
You guessed it…
The messed up
Is going down
Time to take a look around

The energy, though hard to see
Comes to be
With intensity
Know what it means
At the extremes
As is meant
In weather event
Not whether event
Certainly with energy, though hard to see
It’s all around me
So you see
It’s time we
Fessed-up
The messed up
Is going down
Time to take a look around

Chords: Em7/Em / Am C B7 Em; Part II @ 124 to 140 BPM
Instrumentation: Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Keyboards (Korg PS60, Casio WK-500, Korg N364, MiniNova, MicroKorg)

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Give it my all
Give it the most
Living in full
Before I’m ghost
Can see flesh can’t stand on it’s own
Man blessed with blood and bone
Can’t stand alone
The good thing about heartstrings
Is their attachment
To the soul
Angels sing
While cupid swings
With love achievement
The goal

Through time may test
Give it my best
Sow flow and zest
Pre-laid-to-rest
Can see flesh can’t stand on it’s own
Man blessed with blood and bone
Can’t stand alone
The good thing about heartstrings
Is their attachment
To the soul
Angels sing
While cupid swings
With love achievement
The goal

Give it my all
Give it the most
Living in full
Before I’m ghost

Chords: E G D A/ A D / A E / E C D E; Part II @ 124 BPM

LYRICS
Along the way
Start to sway
Is it O.K.
If there’s not enough hours
In the day
(Keep at bay too many ours
In search of hours)
Could time slow down
While I look around
And some’s/sums found?
(Get my feet back on the ground)

Father Time,
I’m… going to out last ya
By moving faster and faster
Approaching the speed of light
I just might
See the light
Be the light

I’m finally starting to see
Some/sum velocity in me
(Find irony in relativity)
Ya know the faster I go
The younger I stay
Along the way
(Ummm… continuum
4-D reality)

Father Time,
I’m… going to out last ya
By moving faster and faster
Approaching the speed of light
I just might
See the light
Be the light

LYRICS
There’s a tree on the hole
The hole in the pipe
The pipe not is not whole
And the tool won’t fit right
(Not quite right)
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen
Do you have any idea what I mean?
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen

The valve master
Is a disaster
Don’t know
Where the flow
Will go
There’s a tree on the hole
The hole in the pipe
The pipe not is not whole
And the tool won’t fit right
(Not quite right)
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen
Do you have any idea what I mean?
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen

Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse
Started with a sudden burst
Disruption in the quest to quench thirst
The valve master
Is a disaster
Don’t know
Where the flow
Will go
There’s a tree on the hole
The hole in the pipe
The pipe not is not whole
And the tool won’t fit right
(Not quite right)
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen
Do you have any idea what I mean?
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen

So I saw a saw
Cut the tree… you see
A sledge and wedge
Supplementary
Just when you thought it couldn’t get worse
Started with a sudden burst
Disruption in the quest to quench thirst
The valve master
Is a disaster
Don’t know
Where the flow
Will go
There’s a tree on the hole
The hole in the pipe
The pipe not is not whole
And the tool won’t fit right
(Not quite right)
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen
Do you have any idea what I mean?
You should have seen the trouble I’ve seen

LYRICS
Have you seen the cascade we’ve made
All the pretty maids made their rows
The man-made cascades
“Follow the falling dominoes”
You’ll know
You’ll all know
Donin-knows
Oh, dominoes
Oh, dominoes

Our faux-tip-toe
Turned friend to foe
Now watch us go
From to to fro
“Follow the falling dominoes”
You’ll know
You’ll all know
Donin-knows
Oh, dominoes
Oh, dominoes

Comes undone
With the very first one
The first to fall…
And then them all
“Follow the falling dominoes”
You’ll know
You’ll all know
Donin-knows
Oh, dominoes
Oh, dominoes

LYRICS
Are we tough enough
How about you?
Are we tough enough
To see us through?
Could be the strain
In your veins
Affecting your brain
Insane

Are we tough enough
How about you?
Are we tough enough
To see us through?
Hard to make gain
Missed the last train
Crying like rain
Get sane

Are we tough enough
How about you?
Are we tough enough
To see us through?
Might be time
Get out of grime
The grime and crime
This time

LYRICS
Forget your toss and tumble
Excuses that you mumble
Better wake-up quick
Conditions are slick
And we’re sliding
Into the abyss
(In the abyss
Slipperiness)

Got to get out
And look about
No doubt
Got to dig in
Start the begin
Again
Better wake-up quick
Conditions are slick
And we’re sliding
Into the abyss
(In the abyss
Slipperiness)

Get up to see
What is to be
Of thee
Get down today
What do you say
Can we?
Better wake-up quick
Conditions are slick
And we’re sliding
Into the abyss

Slipperiness)

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Have you been to the human circus
It’s gone over the top
… the human circus
Gone over the big-top
(Formerly under the big-top)
Even the ringmaster
Is calling for disaster
Coming much faster
Then “who would have ever thought?”

A 3-ring attraction
Slight-of-hand distraction
Even the ringmaster
Is calling for disaster
Coming much faster
Then “who would have ever thought?”
Time to reap what we’ve wrought

A clown-car collision
Man-made decision
Even the ringmaster
Is calling for disaster
Coming much faster
Then “who would have ever thought?”
It’s the ticket we’ve bought

LYRICS
Feel I’ve been here before
But not quite like this
It’s this part right here
I must have missed
Better stand clear
Here comes more
Like before
At least near?

Feeling deja vu
How about you?
Deja vu
With something new
Better stand clear
Here comes more
Like before
At least near?

Familiar scene
Know what I mean?
What did you glean
From your dream?
Better stand clear
Here comes more
Like before
At least near?

Being here
Trying to hear
Both the far
And the near
Just to be clear
The hear is here
Traveling through the atmosphere
Bringing you to the ear
The answer to why “I am I”
Want to come along
Go ahead, jump on
If you want to fit in
To the thread
Jump in
Begin
Start singing
Know to know
Hear I go
Hear I flow
So n’ so
Sow n’ reap
The leap

A long awaited breath
Come back from quite a depth
Sure to surface
More than suffice
(Sure to surface)
Head up and face it
(Face it)
Head on
Dread gone
Let’s face it

As we hold our heads high
You know that we’ll try
To make it
Let’s face it

Be so bold, shout out, cry
“Hold your head high”
“We’ll make it”
Let’s face it!

A long awaited breath
Come back from quite a depth
Sure to surface
More than suffice
More to surface
Bring back life
Head up and face it
(Face it)
Head on
Dread gone
Let’s face it
