LYRICS
A lady bug landed on my thumb
The German Shepard couldn’t believe what he heard
Mother Earth wonders, “How come?”
The earthworms slurm, “Absurd!”

An ecosystem phenomenon
I am… am… am… in phenomena
Sprouting, budding, blossoming
Everything
Love to listen to life sing

More birds and bees, please

LYRICS
When someone’s too tough
Spirits will call their bluff
Comic at the very most
When compared to a ghost

When the trolls and fairies come out to play
It might end up being one scary day
If you don’t give the hunchback some slack
You’ll wish you could take it back

When the gnomes and hairies come out to play
It might end up being your last day
Turn you daylight to pitch black
Step on a crack… break your mother’s back

LYRICS
Can you rest on the pride of your breast
Do you think that’s heavens gate’s test
Can you confess to anything less
Nevertheless, this is our mess

The more you pound
The more you thrust
The more robust?

Can you rest on the pride of your breast
Consider the soul’s incest in your nest
Consider the soul’s incest in your “ness”

LYRICS
Woke up this morning nearly fell out of bed
Had to make sure I was wearing my head
Woke up this morning nearly fell out of bed
What the heck
Thank God for my neck

Woke up this morning… when I hit the deck
I thought I knew what I could expect
Woke up this morning and hit the deck
What the heck
Thank God for my neck

Woke up this morning and started to pray
This is all I could figger’ to say
Woke up this morning and started to pray
“What the heck…
Thank God, for my neck!”

Last thing I remember I lost my head
Can’t recall exactly what I said
What the heck
Thank God for my neck

LYRICS
The louder their voice
The bigger the noise

Verse
In the name of sound
Let us rejoice
Listen ’round
For the sound
Can be found

The louder their voice
The bigger the noise
A cracker that’s wise
… no loud-mouth disguise

Repeat verse

Fly away with me on a sound cloud

Have we forgot
If we listen not
If we listen not
It’s hard to get to heaven if we listen not
If we listen not

LYRICS
A long line…
Grand ma, a concubine
And, I do believe Eve
Went with a serpent

Aren’t women heaven sent
Or are they all hell bent

The labyrinth prison sin
Can you find your way out
Without doubt?

In a field full of mines
Serpents and concubines
A man repents
Serpents and concubines
In a field full of minds
Serpents and concubines

LYRICS
Who would have ever thought it’d turn into this
I almost turned right into your kiss
Ahhhhh….

A lady right from the start
Jumpstart my heart

Who could have known you’d bring on the bliss
With a kiss?

A lady right from the start
Jumpstart my heart

Turn to the East
Turn to the West
Turn to the one you love best

LYRICS
Depopulation, deurbanisation, invasion, and movement of peoples!
An evolution revolution
Living like we’re in Antiquity
What did we expect would be?
What did we expect we’d see?

Mid-evil?
We’re more than half way there
Medieval
The details of the devil
At this level…
Beware!

Depopulation, deurbanisation, invasion, and movement of peoples!
The crumbling of the steeples

Watch “The Empire”: transpire

In European history, the Middle Ages / Medieval period, lasted from the 5th to the 15th century. It began with the collapse of the Western Roman Empire and merged into the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery. The Middle Ages is the middle period of the three traditional divisions of Western history: Antiquity, Medieval, and Modern. The Medieval period is also subdivided into the Early, the High, and the Late Middle Ages.

Depopulation, deurbanisation, invasion, and movement of peoples, which had begun in Late Antiquity, continued in the Early Middle Ages. The barbarian invaders, including various Germanic peoples, formed new kingdoms in what remained of the Western Roman Empire. — Wikipedia
