LYRICS
On the flip-side
Of the Trip-Hop
Is a the B-side
Flat-footed cop
Just say nope
Dope of the narc of the dope
’cause once you see the reality
Through the looking-glass you’ll be
Then you’ll finally be free
It’s just a trip, hop and jump away
Be the contra-verse si and live life today
ABOUT THIS SONG
This song is a tribute to trip-hop.
Trip hop is a genre of electronic music that originated in the early 1990s in the United Kingdom, especially Bristol. Deriving from “post”-acid house, the term was first used by the British music media and press as a way to describe the more experimental variant of breakbeat which contained influences of soul, funk and jazz.
LYRICS
Those pictures from the Hubble
Really popped my bubble
Here I thought the universe was centered around me
Must have some sort-of vanity curse… ’cause it’s hard for me to see
Did you see the the supernova star explosion
Damn it!
If a star explodes in space, can anyone hear it?
By the time we see it, maybe there will be evolution
Or is intelligent live still light years away?
Call it post-humanity dismay
“Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar” galaxy
It’s time to set your soul free
Go far
F#$@ the greed czar
Make the concept of envy bizarre
Those pictures from the Hubble
Popped my bubble
Here I thought the universe revolved around me
Spaced Out Songwriting
ABOUT THIS SONG
This song was inspired by vastness of outer space and my relative size.
LYRICS
Just drop the needle in the groove
It’s not like I’ve got something to prove
Salve for the wound of fear
The ointment in the instrument
(Instant ointment instrument)
Let the sound sear
And hope your heart will move
Once ya drop the needle in the groove
Pierce your vain
With the needle
Called insane
At the church with the steeple
But we can out-dance the irreverence of those people
Just drop the needle
Hey, do ya really want in on their vanity sin?
Please move to drop the needle in the groove
Let’s start making love
May the music cure what ails ya
The elixir tonic that never fails ya

LYRICS
If your *your*…
If you’re feeling queasy
and think it’s from what ya ate for ‘sup….
Here’s what’s up
Don’t be diminished
Don’t let it be your finish
Don’t be diminished
Yo, Hubris
Play the devil’s Nemesis
If your *your*…
If you’re feeling queasy
Why not get into the our
You don’t have to spend a lifetime
It’s free the first hour
Be it sublime
Our hour is free
LYRICS
Was she serious when she said
Serious dumpster fire ahead?
The Boulevard’s shut down
How we gonna get around?
Was she serious?
A serious dumpster fire
Seriously?
It sounds funny to me
How could civilization transpire
To the point of a “serious” dumpster fire?
That’s what the lady on the radio said
“Hello. This is your radio…
Traffic update”
At any rate, she went on to state
“The Boulevard is shut down
You’ll have to find a way around.”
Then, like the town crier
She said, “serious dumpster fire”
