LYRICS
Two-shoes
Goody, goody two-shoes
Does your number of faces
Match your shoes
All the while stylin’ the hypocrisy blues

Two-shoes
Goody, goody two-shoes
Displaced
Two-faced
Out of space
Lost the human race

Two-shoes
Goody, goody two-shoes
Double damage you do do
Both sides of your mouth talkin’ too
… into
Two-shoes
Goody, goody two-shoes
All the while stylin’ the hypocrisy blues

LYRICS
There must be a reason
No matter the season
You bring out the worst in me
There must be a reason
No matter the season
Justice comes eventually

And by chance
When the scales balance
I’m around to see
Eventually be
Inevitability to reality

There must be a reason
No matter the season
The pig is ripe on the vine
There must be a reason
No matter the season
Humans turn to swine

And by chance
When the scales balance
I’m around to see
Eventually be
Inevitability to reality

LYRICS
Oh what a shame….
What a crying shame!
Now who ya gonna blame?

Oh how so lame
When ya try-ta-be tame
Enough being “same”
Time to pick-up your game
Now know who to blame
Now no “who” to blame

Oh what a shame
Have you gone insane
Train your brain
To step-up its game
Change the name
Come, coming, came
Now I’ll be back again
Now I’ll be back begin

No more crying what a shame

LYRICS
Walking around with a bag pulled over your head
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Sitting around feeling bad over what’s been said
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Lying around just wishing you’d stayed in bed
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Hanging around just waiting ’till you are dead
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Shoo! Bye!
Oh my my
Shoo! Fly!
You’re buggin’ me

Who let the dogs out
What’s all this wining about
With questions so easy
Can stand it… barely
Without the slightest doubt
The most annoying shout
With rhetoric so sleazy
Making me feel queasy

Oh no
If the know doesn’t grow

The gap in the skull narrows
The gap in freewill widens
Bringing on tomorrow’s sorrows
Our thoroughfare dead-ends

Oh no

Distance to the edge narrows
Understanding bridge widens
Bringing on tomorrow’s sorrows
Our one-way street dead-ends

Oh no

The dire strait narrows
The die or mate widens
Bringing on tomorrow’s sorrows

Oh no

What is the matter
Is there something in the water
’cause I don’t understand
How you can rape the land
Of my son and daughter

Have we outgrown the age
Of pillage and suffrage
Move to a new stage
Way past hate and rage

What is the matter
Is there something in the water
’cause I can’t comprehend
Why you won’t lend
A hand in helpin’
A helpin’ hand

Are we all going crazy
Are we all going crazy
Are we all going crazy
Are we?

Is the world going round
Are we turning upside down
Will our purpose be found
As the celestial clown

The joker, the jester
The moral molester
Look into the mirror
A little dearer, a little clearer

Say so long sorcerer
No, you don’t really know
Hope in flying saucers
Anybody home? Hello?

LYRICS
Don’t let your panties get all in a knot
‘less your purpose get forgot

When you panties get all in a knot
You start talkin’ through drool and snot
The snot running down your face
Makes you look like something not from the human race
So maybe if you stop droolin’
I can start listenin’

So you better not
Let your panties get in a knot
‘less your purpose get forgot
This, that and whatnot
Did your panties get in a knot

Don’t wanna drown in your own snot
Don’t let your panties get all in a knot
‘less your purpose get forgot

In need of a magician

LYRICS
If what you do is pursue
Happiness and bliss, too
Then what you’ll find is the kind kind
With peace in their heart and love in mind

If what you do is poo-poo
Vinegar and piss, too
Then what you’ll find is the hard kind
With a blackened heart and hate in mind

If you talk and follow through
Deliver faith and hope, too
Then what you do for all mankind
Is heal the sick… give sight to the blind

LYRICS
Funny thing… once there was a king
He didn’t know a God damned thing
He’d say, “Why not bring on the onslaught?”
Then he’d say, “Why not? Yeah, why not?”

Funny thing… when the children sing
Their soul hatches then takes wing
They sing, “Why not five it all we got?”
The choir sings, “Why not? Yeah, why not?”

Funny thing… why doesn’t the king
Let go of everything and learn to sing
Finally the enlightenment he sought
Will be said, “He got. Yeah! We got!”

LYRICS
Try to create a smile or two
I can give to you
Create a song… maybe a few
That will move you

Remove every fright in sight
Insight

If the boogie man comes
Gonna make him run
Let the overlord come
Gonna make him numb

Until we all see tranquility

Try to convey a concept or two
That relates to you
Convey meaning… then some, too
That will move you

’till every fear takes flight
Take the Reaper’s scythe
Send him underneath
Show Grim gnarled teeth
Emerge from beneath

Until we all see tranquility

Red sky in morning, sailors take warning
Red sky in morning. This is a warning.

LYRICS
If ya need to clear your head
Better off going back to bed
Instead of rants in a rage
About your self-imposed cage

The sign of our sine wave into the future
The time for our sign is now and evermore

Regretting the things you said
Should have gone back to bed?
A victimization rationalization
Victimization rationalization

The sign of our sine wave into the future
The time for our sign is now and evermore

ABOUT THE SONG

Written and recorded along West River Drive and the Schuylkill River in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The sine wave or sinusoid is a mathematical curve that describes a smooth repetitive oscillation. It is named after the function sine, of which it is the graph. It occurs often in pure and applied mathematics, as well as physics, engineering, signal processing and many other fields.
