LYRICS
Give a shout out
Just look about
What’s up with all the sufferin’?
Starvin’ for lovin’ from within
Starvin’ for lovin’ what a sin
We can fix this
Just takes some piss
And vinegar
The perfect cure
God,
Please give wisdom to the ignoramuses in power
Before our final hour (our hour)
Forgive our debtee
As they’ve forgiven me
Sincerely,
A man, Amen

LYRICS
On our way to Grandmother’s house
Where Mom lived ‘fore she became a Brouse
Philadelphia’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Then, turkey dinner all homemade
With mashed potatoes and gravy
All the condiments… so savory
A cornucopia of smells swell
To the point you can tell —
Supper’s ready!
Come and get it!
There’s plenty
To God’s credit
Once the stores are open again
Our first opportunity, we begin
Shopping for toys like we’ve never seen
Living in a Nutcracker dream scheme scene
Telescope, microscope, drums and guns
The fun let in… imagination runs
I suppose it matters in every way
The giving… the loving… on Christmas Day

LYRICS
If you’re feeling all alone at Christmas
Feelings for all the people you miss
Please remember you’re never alone
Wherever you are… you’re at home
Please remember you’re never alone
If you’re feeling blue… another year anew
Feeling life is slipping away… you’re blue
Please remember how much you’re loved
Embrace now so there’s no regret of “could’ve”
Breath in deep the Christmas spirit
Not just today but all year… keep near it
Please remember wherever you roam
Where ever… you’re never alone

LYRICS
We three kings travel as far
Under the direction of the brightest star
Have you heard what I’ve heard
Shepherds herd shepherds
Under the direction of an angel’s angle
We three kings — holy ghost, father, son
Under the light of the brightest star —
The sun
Have you heard what I’ve heard
Shepherds herd shepherds
Under the direction of an angel’s agent

LYRICS
I heard the first snowflake fell
You could tell from the children’s yell
Feeling swell takin’ in the Christmas smell
You can smell the season in the air
Awash with the waft of love and care
I heard of heaven and hell
Could all be a matter of, “Oh, well.”
There is one easy way to tell
Can you smell the season in the air?
Awake with intake of love and care
You can smell it in the air
Once you become aware
Finding joy everywhere

From here to there
And back again
Wanting a return trip
Love life on Earth
When done agin’
Hoping the side can flip
I’ll see ya on the flipside
After our mortality ride
Heaven’s playground slide
I’ll see ya on the flipside
Unaware everywhere?
Immortal gain
Second coming equip

LYRICS
Christmas time draws near
Gonna ride the yuletide cheer
You’ll surely see clear
Catch the wave, my dear
Into the new year
Christmas time drew near
She rode a mule there
Her manger for Him in Bethlehem
The spirit of Christmas cheer
Born in that year
Christmas time draws near
Gonna ride the yuletide cheer
You’ll surely see clear
Catch the wave, my dear
Into the new year

LYRICS
As of this date
How can it be too late
To alleviate
… if we don’t hesitate
And, crank-up the love
If you’re interested
In gathering love together
Letting the hypothesis be tested
Is infinite forever?

LYRICS
If I were stranded
On a deserted island
I supposed it’d be re-branded
To the dance I land
Set soul’s sail
Let vocals wail
To the third-eye land
The 3rd island from the sun
The 3rd-eye land, son
I’m talkin’ ’bout
“and then sum” some
Past Mercury, Venus
Chances are
If you get to Mars
There’s been too many “too fars”

Colors on the street

Red, white and blue
Em D C
People shufflin' their feet
Em D C
People sleepin' in their shoes
Em D C
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead

There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Em D C
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
Em D C
So I try to forget it, any way I can.

Keep on rockin' in the free world
D C C/B C/A G
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
D C C/B C/A G
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life, and what she's done to it
There's one more kid that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool.
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
(Bass only)
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler,
Machine gun hand
(Guitar starts in)
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive.
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.

LYRICS
Why is the sky blue
And the grass green
Do you know what I mean
Do you?
Is the blue seen by you
The same as seen
In my scene
Do you know what I mean
Do you?
Does the truth hold true
All living being
Do you know what I mean
Do you?
ABOUT THIS SONG

This song is about philosophy and Ludwig Wittgenstein.
Remarks on Colour (German: Bemerkungen über die Farben) is a collection of notes by Ludwig Wittgenstein on Goethe’s Theory of Colours. The work consists of Wittgenstein’s reactions to Goethe’s thinking, and an attempt to clarify the use of language about colour. Believing that philosophical puzzles about colour can only be resolved through attention to the involved language-games, Wittgenstein distinguishes between the science of optics, as developed by Newton, and Goethe’s phenomenology of colour, remarking that:
“Goethe’s theory of the origin of the spectrum isn’t a theory of its origin that has proved unsatisfactory; it is really not a theory at all. Nothing can be predicted by means of it. It is, rather, a vague schematic outline, of the sort we find in James’s psychology. There is no experimentum crucis for Goethe’s theory of colour.”
