VERSE 1
D                                                  Am
I had visions I was in them I was looking into the mirror
                    Am7          C                    D
To see a little bit clearer, the rottenness and evil in me
D                                                             Am
Fingertips have memories mine can't forget the curves of your body
                      Am7          C                        D
And when I feel a bit naughty, I run it up the flagpole and see

Who salutes, but no one ever does

CHORUS
D                        Am7              C    C4           D
I'm not sick but I'm not well, and I'm so hot, cause I'm in hell

VERSE 2
D                                                           Am
Been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding
                        Am7          C                  D
The cretins cloning and feeding, and I don't even own a tv
D                                                      Am
Put me in the hospital for nerves and then they had to commit me
                        Am7    C                    D
You told them all I was crazy, they cut off my (balls) legs now

I'm an amputee god damn you

The trivial sublime, I'd like to turn off time

Em                G
All around me are familiar faces
D                 A
Worn out places – worn out faces
Em                          G
Bright and early for their daily races
D               A
Going nowhere – going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
D             A
No expression – no expression
Em                     G
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
D           A
No tomorrow – no tomorrow

Em                  A                      Em
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
Em                      A                            Em
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
Em                 A                           Em
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
Em                  A
When people run in circles it’s a very very

Maaaaaad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good

Happy birthday – happy birthday
Em                        G
Made to feel the way that every child should
D               A
Sit and listen – sit and listen
Em                       G
Went to school and I was very nervous

Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson

Look right through me – look right through me

Em                  A                      Em

Hunter’s Moon

Posted on November 29, 2012December 1, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
The Hunter’s Moon hovers on the horizon

Once the setting sun is done
It will be a full moon risin’

The folklore of the sky
Trying to answer, “why?”
The folklore of the sky
Understanding the part that is I

The nocturnal prey play after day
The Hunter’s moon shinning like noon
Gives light to the motion of flight

Let go. Whish. (The string of the bow)

Good night!

Hunter’s Moon.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG

The Hunter’s Moon is so named because plenty of moonlight is ideal for hunters shooting migrating birds in Northern Europe. The name is also said to have been used by Native Americans as they tracked and killed their prey by autumn moonlight, stockpiling food for the winter ahead. The Hunter’s Moon and Harvest Moon are not brighter, smaller or yellower than during other times of the year, but all full moons have their own special characteristics (based primarily on the whereabouts of the ecliptic in the sky at the time of year that they are visible.) The full moons of September, October and November, as seen from the northern hemisphere (which correspond to the full moons of March, April and May as seen from the southern hemisphere) are well known in the folklore of the sky.

LYRICS
The tricks with this mix
Involve staying on course
You know? When visibility is low
Trying to avoid blunt force

To hell with hail
that falls to the ground
We’ll sustain the freezing rain
And, figure a work around

Damn the don’t knows
Full speed in the head

The fix for this mix
Involves getting out from betwixt
From above… snow… ice below

Push The Envelope

Posted on November 28, 2012November 28, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
When it comes to a shove
Push the envelope
If the answer is, “nope”
Push the envelope

Sometimes you need the touch of a kid glove
Sometimes you need a blessing coming down from above
Sometimes you just need to give them enough rope
To push the envelope

Out of the box
I was outside of the box
Shredding chains and shedding locks
Cunning as a fox

With a band that rocks
There’s hope
We’ll push the envelope

LYRICS
Tin soldiers and Nixon coming,
We’re finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.

Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?

Tin soldiers and Nixon coming,
We’re finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.

Moonshine

Posted on November 27, 2012November 28, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Give praise for the moonshine
Pass on the sun’s rays (raise)
Give praise for the nighttime

Reflections from afar
Shedding light from a star
Phenomenon bizarre
Traveling as both wave and particles

Give praise for the sunshine
Bounce off the moon’s backside
Making the full moon shine fine
Giving rise to the ocean’s tide

Reflections from afar
Shedding light from a star
Phenomenon bizarre
Bringing a lifetime of spectacles

Give praise the stars do shine
Travel through vast space
To grace the crisp wintertime
Shinning down on the human race

Reflections from afar
Shedding light from a star
Phenomenon bizarre
Traveling as both particles and wave
Causing us to howl and crave
… none too soon to howl at the moon

Moonshine.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Key of C

Written and recorded on November 26, 27 and 28, 2012 in West Chester and Ambler, PA. It is about getting sunlight in the wintertime to keep you healthy and happy… and the way a full moon full of reflection can make you feel crazy.

My Thoughts Are With You

Posted on November 26, 2012November 26, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
As you go out in the big wild world
My thoughts are with you
As you grow from young through old
My thoughts are with you

If Ideas are too complex… if ideas do perplex
My thoughts are with you
If you feel as though you’re living under a hex
My thoughts are with you

I’d be more than willing to lend my brain
I’d be more than happy to help explain
It might even be fun… and entertain
Or, if we’re lucky… benefit humanity a bit

Whether a whale under slaughter
Or, parent of dead daughter
Whether deaf in a life of silence
Or, victim of domestic violence
My thoughts are with you
