LYRICS
Gnaw! Gnaw1
Claw it raw
(Raw, raw)
To the bone
Unsheathe the teeth
And bring it home
Prey gives way
Bequeath
Breathe

I suppose the bunny didn’t find it funny
Gnaw! Gnaw1
Claw it raw
Guess that deer didn’t know you were near
Gnaw! Gnaw1
Claw it raw
To the bone
Unsheathe the teeth
And bring it home
Prey gives way
Bequeath
Breathe

You caught a cow? I wonder how….
Gnaw! Gnaw1
Claw it raw
Guess pigs can fly (or they’re gonna die)
Gnaw! Gnaw1
Claw it raw
To the bone
Unsheathe the teeth
And bring it home
Prey gives way
Bequeath
Breathe

LYRICS
Didn’t have to wait very long
January… where’s winter gone?
Does it seem wrong
Now that winter’s gone
Waited too long
To right/write our wrong
As the birds sing
“What’s happening”
The strangest thing
Eye-opening

Didn’t have to wait very long
January… spring’s coming on strong
Does it seem wrong
Now that winter’s gone
Waited too long
To right/write our wrong
As the birds sing
“What’s happening”
The strangest thing
Eye-opening

Well, well, well look what we’ve done
January n’ spring has sprung
Does it seem wrong
Now that winter’s gone
Waited too long
To right/write our wrong
As the birds sing
“What’s happening”
The strangest thing
Eye-opening

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Don’t blame your mama
She wouldn’t know
Likely your karma
Said, “Round I go!”
The birds and the bees
Flowers and trees
Abide the rules of nature
No one under the sky
Will survive “to die”
Head high till put to pasture
… rules of nature
Endure for sure

Though days are numbered
There’s still more show
Roar of the thunder
Space cadet glow
The birds and the bees
Flowers and trees
Abide the rules of nature
No one under the sky
Will survive “to die”
So, try enjoy endure
… rules of nature
Endure for sure

Live every minute
Mind on the go
Cherish the moment
You never know
The birds and the bees
Flowers and trees
Abide the rules of nature
No one under the sky
Will survive “to die”
Going for self-induced rapture
… rules of nature
Endure for sure

LYRICS
Rain reign
Will you ever come again
Rain reign
When will you begin
Without a doubt
Got to end the drought
This lack of rain’s insane

Rain reign
Arrived this very day
Rain reign
Are you here to stay?
Without a doubt
Got to end the drought
This lack of rain’s insane

Rain reign
Raining every dog gone day
Rain reign
Won’t you please go away
Neck deep in mud
Got to end the flood
This constant rain’s insane

LYRICS
What do you say
We go out of our way
This morning
That is to say
Take the time to persuade
Sound alarming
When I say the sky is falling
Let me be clear
I’m not saying The End is near
Rather atmospheric rivers squalling

What do you say
We go out of our way
Today
Not to evade
Take the time to persuade
Hear what we say
When I say the sky is falling
Let me be clear
I’m not saying The End is near
Rather atmospheric rivers squalling
It’s the ocean falling
Human-made shivers
Atmospheric rivers
Falling down
Rising up
And round and round

LYRICS
Misty morning
Please start blowing
Away
Accompany in
A sunny day

No wind today
Fog’s here to stay
No wind today
Please stop! Don’t tease
Praying for a breeze
Lord, start blowing
Away
Accompany in
A sunny day

Misty evening
Senses grieving
Misty evening
If there was a sun
She is long done
But you know what they say
Tomorrow’s another day

I don’t know if it’s a problem
If you know how to solve it
If he’s in need no need to rob him
Start with compassion

To thank you

I wouldn’t call it a problem
Now you know how to solve it
Doesn’t need to be us or them
Start with compassion
Evolve it
I’m on my knees
’cause it’s how I please
To thank you

Figured out how to solve it
Daydreaming R.E.M.

It’s a long time
But it keeps getting shorter
All of the time
Seeing all you’ve caught
Being all you’ve got
Prime
Time’s prime
Now until the dying
Best to keep on trying
All the time
Prime time

It’s a long time
But it keeps getting shorter
All of the time
Been a long time
But after second quarter
Makes it half-time
Seeing all you’ve caught
Being all you’ve got
Prime
Time’s prime
Now until the dying
Best to keep on trying
All the time
Prime time

It’s a long time
But it keeps getting shorter
All of the time
Was a long time
Better send a court reporter
The End of times
Seeing all you’ve caught
Being all you’ve got
Prime
Time’s prime
Now until the dying
Best to keep on trying
All the time
Prime time

Caught a rash
In search of flash
Wasn’t sure

Caught a rash
In search of flash
Now need a cure
Too mature

If indigestion is your hunch
Too late
