LYRICS
Looks like we’re in for a chain reaction
Won’t be a matter of our satisfaction
Looks like we’re in for constant action
Object in motion in perpetual motion
Acceleration
Magnification
Civilization
Solution
Looks like we’re in for a chin reaction
Won’t be a matter of our satisfaction
Looks like we’re in for constant action
Object in motion in perpetual motion
Enumeration
Elaboration
Looks like we’re in for a chin reaction
Won’t be a matter of our satisfaction
Looks like we’re in for constant action
Object in motion in perpetual motion
And it won’t slow down
Will exponential abound?
LYRICS
The music I hear
Is grabbing my ear
Is drawing me near
I wanna hear clear
The beat of the sound
Makes me move around
The source of the sound
Must be found
The home of the heart
Is on solid ground
Lordy, I’m homeward bound
Unlike sight
You don’t need light
Through the night
The music plays bright
Unlike taste
It’s food for the soul
None shall waste
From folk… to rock and roll
LYRICS
How do you know what’s missing ’till it’s gone
Sacrifice the Queen to save a pawn?
Spending every hour
Trying to be sour
While missing the treat
And everything that’s sweet
How do you know it’s worth kissing ’till it’s gone
Smack Her on the lips just for fun
How do you know the taste ’till it’s in your face
Can’t just sit in the stands for the human race
Chorus
How do you know what’s missing ’till it’s gone
Sacrifice the Queen to save a pawn?
Will you keep walking with your eyes closed
Can you awaken or are you opposed?
LYRICS
The fresh water level is dropping
The salt water level is rising
Shouldn’t be eye-popping
… no, ain’t surprising
Backlash of brackish backwaters
The water table is dropping
See the sea level rising
Shouldn’t be heart-stopping
… no, ain’t surprising
Backlash of brackish backwaters
Our wells are running drier
While the tides are rising higher
Would’ve thought it our desire
To put out this man-made fire
The song was inspired by a lot of misleading information trending in social-media about Nestle and the California drought. The facts of the matter are — most of the water in California is used for agriculture. Nearly 50 billion cubic metres (13 trillion gallons) of water is used in California each year. Nestle bottled water plants only use 705 million gallons a year. Almond growers use about as much water each year as the entire city of Los Angeles. What percentage of California’s water is used by agriculture? 80 %.
The real cause of the problem is Human Induced Climate Change. As droughts increase in frequency and intensity, the sea level is rising. So not only are the droughts a problem, but salt water intrusion is also a problem. As these problems worsen, the solution is not to blame bottled water companies. Nor is the solution to build desalination plants. (Not only do desalination plants contribute to global warming, they also are devastating to the ocean.)
The solution is for humans to take responsibility for the climate change and take action.

LYRICS
Awoke from a sleep. Is it night or day?
A sleep so deep I don’t know my way
Thought I dozed off for just a lil’ bit
Awoke to this world. I don’t recognize it
Where children can’t play
Due to moral decay
Where children can’t breath
Due to air quality
Chorus
Where children can’t eat
There’s not a healthy treat
Where children can’t dance
We didn’t give ’em a chance
Chorus
Where children can’t learn
To fall in love or yearn
Where children can’t say
They’ll see their kids some day
LYRICS
That’s rather odd… why the cattle prod?
Zap! Zap!
Ate the wires and jell gonna make me yell?
Zap! Zap!
Complete the circuit and blow my mind
If it’s wound too tight, it will unwind
When you pull the trigger with your finger
Zap! Zap!
Don’t know if I’ve the courage for another nerve surge
Zap! Zap!
Complete the circuit and blow my mind
If it’s bound to tight, it will unbind
Go ahead a probe with a needle electrode
Zap! Zap!
I never get use to this electric juice
Zap! Zap!
Complete the circuit and blow my mind
If it’s wound too tight, it will unwind
LYRICS
Sorry to interrupt
But during this interlude
If you don’t mind as to be so kind
And answer a question or two?
Would you rather fall forward or fall behind
Equi-knocks on the equinox
Didn’t mean to misinterpret
Nor the facts misrepresent
You can call me the fool
Is the day half empty or half full?
Would you rather fall forward or fall behind
Equi-knocks on the equinox
Sorry to interject
At the risk of being a jerk
Knock, knock
Who’s there?
Boo.
Boo who?
No need to cry (sigh)
Next year give ‘er another try
Get your equi-knocks on equinox
A song about the autumnal “fall” equinox. “The oldest meaning of the word “equinox” is the day when daytime and night are of approximately equal duration.” Is your day half empty or half full?
