bookmark_borderBaby In The Bathwater

LYRICS
See what I mean
All coming clean
Throwing out the baby
In the bathwater
Maybe,
You are not sure

See what I mean
All coming clean
Cutting off the nose
TO spite the ‘ole face
Who knows,
Could end up in disgrace

See what I mean
All coming clean
Riding the gravy train
Engineer’s insane
Your fears,
Owed in arrears

Strike up the band
We’ll lend out

And, rock-n-roll!
Extend out

Always?

LYRICS
Look around
Oh, my…
Everyone under the same sky
Look around
Then, why…
Blunder and plunder the last try?
Far off
Aloof
Living under the same roof
No, not alone
We all live in the same home
Get down to Earth!
For what it’s worth
Get down to Earth

Look around
Rat race
Everyone rush to the same place
Look around
Home base
Occupying the same space
Far off
Aloof
Living under the same roof
No, not alone
We all live in the same home
Get down to Earth!
For what it’s worth
Get down to Earth

LYRICS
Is Earth in space
Is the space between Earth
And every other place, space?
If so, I’d like to know
Why do we say:
The heavens and the Earth?
Isn’t every day
In the heavens
(Earth, Earth, Earth)
The heavens and…
The heavens-nauts
Have nots or heaven-nauts
Isn’t every day
In the heavens
Why not?
I’d love to know
Here we go
Heaven and Earth
Heaven in Earth
Sprouting birth
Sprouting forth
Birth

From the beginning
To the happy ever after ending
Until we meet again
Forever a friend
Together whether together

In the vain
Of one and the same
Post-modern slang
For ying and yang
Together whether together
Together weather together

[instrumental jam]

From the beginning
To the happy ever after ending
Universal message send:
Forever a friend
Together whether together
Together weather together

Ohhh the insanity
Working on the front lines
Of humanity
The slow death of empathy
Closed minds and land mines
Blown-up sanity
Ohhh goddamn our roles
Ohhh god save our souls
Open our eyes
Time to realize
Bodies are dropping like flies
Ohh the calamity
Volunteer from the rear
Wants to try n’ steer
Familiarity
With the dumb questions to ask
’cause my head is up my a$$

How long…
Until evil
Is out of control
Let’s oust the devil
From the starring role
The director is a dictator
A ruler imitator
Soul torturer

How long
’til intermission
Swan song
Climax transmission
The director is a dictator
A ruler imitator
Soul torturer

Bring it down
Let the curtain fall
Bring it down
End the facade ball
The director is a dictator
A ruler imitator
(Dick-tator)
Soul torturer

LYRICS
One thing
… leads to another…
One thing
Something
Sum thing
See what the chaos theory
Will bring
The theory of chaos
Butterflies affecting us
(All of us)
The flapping of wings
See what change it brings
(Sings)
The theory of chaos
Unordered systems — glorious
There’s one thing for sure
Look at the big picture
(Pure)
The theory of chaos
The new anti-ridiculous
Each fractal special
Forces of nature wrestle
One thing
… leads to another…
One thing
Something
Sum thing

LYRICS
Inequity is dying
(And, I feel fine
I feel fine)
The bigots left crying
(And, I feel fine
I feel fine)

There’s something in the air
That blows away despair
Finally getting somewhere
The world’s become aware
(Have you been out there?)

Fascism is dying
(And, I feel fine
I feel fine)
The fascists left crying
(And, I feel fine
I feel fine)

Racism is dying
The racists left crying
(And, I feel fine
I feel fine)

LYRICS
Living inside the bubble
Myself beside
Living inside
Their bubble
Nothing is normal at all
Hard to call a festival
Inside the bubble
Civilization devastation
Crumbled to rubble
Can anybody hear me mumble… grumble
Outside my bubble?
Can’t sense the real world
There is no talk or told
… just grab hold
Of growing old
Living inside the bubble

bookmark_borderHairless Primate

LYRICS
If I had any hair
It would be blowing in the wind
If I had any nerve
It would be strong as steel
Can we feel what is real
Tell me what’s the deal
Can we feel what’s for real?

If I had any faith
Forgiven for all I’ve sinned
If I had any sense
I’d savor (the flavor of) my last meal
Can we feel what is real
Tell me what’s the deal
Can we feel what’s for real?

If I had any balls
I’d tear down these walls
If I had any heart
Destiny and fate I’d seal
Can we feel what is real
Tell me what’s the deal
Can we feel what’s for real?

LYRICS
Maybe… just maybe
Maybe it’s wishful thinking
Thinking maybe
But what was I thinking?
Maybe…
That we could get together
“Whatever” could be better
Together
Into the Age:
“On The Same Page”
Maybe, save me
From your free
To say together
Is to say “we”
Touch of a feather
Together
We see we
