LYRICS
So you’ve got some problems to solve
Well, line ’em up and knock ’em down
How to stop humans from trying to devolve
Well, line ’em up
Make smiles from frowns
Let’s decide to evolve and solve
It’s not too late to participate
At all

Still you’ve questions to ask
Line ’em up and shout ’em out
Not sure if you are up to the task
Well come line up… find out about
Out about
How to stop humans from trying to devolve
Well, line ’em up
Make smiles from frowns
Let’s decide to evolve and solve
It’s not too late to participate
At all

Though important knowing why
Figure how before we die
you’ve got some problems to solve
Well, line ’em up and knock ’em down
How to stop humans from trying to devolve
Well, line ’em up
Make smiles from frowns
Let’s decide to evolve and solve
It’s not too late to participate
At all
Let’s decide to evolve and solve
It’s not too late to participate
For all

LYRICS
When the day is gray and drab
Grab a way to say
To today
Finding way
Sheppard stray
Say hooray!
And always remember
On the other side
Of the fog and drizzle
She’ll still reside
Sun kissed sizzle

Tired of the daily grind?
Find kind a way
To today
Finding way
Sheppard stray
Say hooray!
And always remember
On the other side
Of the fog and drizzle
She’ll still reside
Sun kissed sizzle

Remember…
She’ll never go away
To this very day
To today
Finding way
Sheppard stray
Say hooray!
And always remember
On the other side
Of the fog and drizzle
She’ll still reside
Sun kissed sizzle

From the Christmas album of music Merry Christmas!

bookmark_borderAbout My Birthday

LYRICS
I am lovin’
Another lap around the sun
See “can” comin’
Around the bend, then some
Three hundred sixty-five and one-forth
Add on another one to my birth
And we all sang along
In a sing-a-long
(Happy Birthday bridge)
Here’s to another run
Around the sun

A rainbow raptor appeared in the sky
Marking the time that flies by
(I’ll take it as a sign…
That I’m living time)
Marking the time that flies by
That I’m lovin’
Spinning round
Around the sun
See “can” comin’
Around the bend, then some
Three hundred sixty-five and one-forth
Add on another one to my birth
And we all sang along
In a sing-a-long

As I was sitting in the yard watching the sun set, I started to write a song while I reflected on my upcoming birthday. As I looked to the sky, a magnificent cloud took shape that looked like a giant eagle. The setting sun caused the head take on an iridescent rainbow. Three contrails shot out the rear forming an impressive tail. Watching the raptor fly across the sky I wondered, “is it a sign?”

Are you really sure
Did you check your facts?
Intentions pure
Or does substance lack?
Do you wanna take it back
Are you gonna take it back
Don’t we with that we could
Take it back

Oh, gold’s allure
Temptation’s flack
Logic ignore
What do we lack
Do you wanna take it back

Don’t we with that we could

Still endure gore

LYRICS
Looking through a thing or two
A sky of blue comes into view
Figure out what to do
Clear the way let her through
Argh, uh… Gaia!
Uh, what have we done?
Slaughterer of your great granddaughter
Killing them off one-by-one
What have we done?

Hooking onto a thought or two
All know exactly what to do
It’s ’cause of us we’re in this stew
Boiling frogs’ timer’s due
Argh, uh… Gaia!
Uh, what have we done?
Slaughterer of your great granddaughter
Killing them off one-by-one
What have we done?

Booking time for a thing or two
Consuming less… needing few
Figured out what to do
Clear the way
She’ll come through
Argh, uh… Gaia!
Uh, what have we done?
Slaughterer of your great granddaughter
Killing them off one-by-one
What have we done?

The Greek Goddess, Gaia, means the personification of Earth or the ancestral Mother Earth. Her great granddaughters are the four seasons. Unfortunately, human activities are eliminating the seasons.

LYRICS
All my time I think of you
How you make dreams come true
Although I’m turning blue
It’s not because of you
My fellow fellows follow wallowing
To see their eye… hear their cry
Is contagious
It’s outrageous
The enraged us
Is ridiculous

All the time they have no clue
They’re going to do what they’re going to do
Although I’m turning blue
It’s not because of you
My fellow fellows follow wallowing
To see their eye… hear their cry
Is contagious
It’s outrageous
The enraged us
Is ridiculous

Waste of time
You know it’s true
Nothing I can say will get through
Although I’m turning blue
It’s not because of you

To see their eye… hear their cry
Is contagious
It’s outrageous

What is wrong with us
That we can’t confess
That’s what’s wrong with us
Is selfishness

Of what went wrong
Ode to what we owed to “us”

What is wrong with us is us
That’s what’s wrong with us
It’s us
We’re nuts

In 2023, we wrote about having crossed tipping points in the paper, “Climate Change: How Long Is ‘Ever’?“. Originally, we forecast crossing these tipping points would not happen for centuries. We underestimated Man’s ignorance and arrogance. Fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions have continued to set record highs. Humans have caused chain-reactions resulting in toppled tipping points, feedback loops, and The Domino Effect.

bookmark_borderWhy Bumble Bees Fly

LYRICS
Do you prefer how the dragonfly flies
Or do you prefer how the crow flies
Asking how’s
Asking why’s
Straight as an arrow
Straits through the narrow
Dire
On fire
Flaming
Aiming
For the light

Why do bumble bees fly?

There are many paths to scientific discovery. How do you imagine yourself flying?
In the song “Fly Away,” Lenny Kravitz sings,
“I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly”

“As the crow flies” is an idiom for the most direct path between two points. This meaning is attested from the early 19th century.

Bumble bees’ wings, “rather than being rigid aerofoils, consist instead of an extremely elastic and supple protein known as resilin. This can be stretched to three times its length without tearing, allowing bumblebees to move a relatively large mass of air using wings with a small surface area.”

Did you allow yourself to get too
Comfortable
Letting down your guard
Did you swallow pollution’s

Logic’s just too hard?
Shattered to shard
When you just believe what you want to
Instead of facing the facts
Then your opinion’s worth to you
is a cost since substance lacks
If you could only take it back
Take it back

Did you allow yourself to get too
Comfortable
Letting down your guard
Did you swallow haste’s waste’s
Affordable
Logic’s just too hard?
Shattered to shard
When you just believe what you want to
Instead of facing the facts
Then your opinion’s worth to you

If you could only take it back

Letting down your guard
Did you swallow “we’ll follow”

Looking into your beaker
The future looks bleaker
Experiment spent
Not quite what you meant?
Have you ever been told
You’re soul shouldn’t be sold?
May the young heart beat bold

Looking into your test tube
More wisdom n’ less nube
Experiment spent
Not quite what you meant?
Have you ever been told
You’re soul shouldn’t be sold?
May the young heart beat bold

Looking into your database
Appear to have lost face
Experiment spent
Not quite what you meant?
Have you ever been told
You’re soul shouldn’t be sold?
May the young heart beat bold

Keep your heart forever young
Are you one of the few
