LYRICS
What?
You think there’s no such thing as a bad cop?
Stop!

I’ve got (k)news for you
There’s more than 1 or 2
Be a killer cop killer, too

Kill the lies
Kill the pain
Kill the innuendos you’re insane

You’ve made the sighting
Strike like lightning
Wild fire burn out-of-control
Applied to the troll

LYRICS
You look at me with that fly eye
I wonder what you see
When you look at me through that fly eye
Is your soul wishing to be free

Chorus
Of all the things
You’re the one with wings
See what flight it brings
At any rate
Reincarnate
With a love more ornate

The bird with worm
Evil-eye storm
Or affection being born?
I realize my eye’s on you
Better hope my heart is true

LYRICS
Lying on your back reading a book
Hoping for the introspective look
But you seem to forget… neglect…
You’re about to hang out

Letting it all hang out

Stand on your head
Face turning red
Didn’t know you’re so tall
’till your shirt started to fall
You seem to forget… neglect…
You’re about to hang out

Letting it all hang out

Dub you, too
WPD when are you leaving me?

Can’t wait ’till the fall when you leave
(The leaves turn brown and fall to the ground)
Jack fell down and broke his crown
All the King’s horses and all the King’s men…
Couldn’t put ’em back together again

bookmark_borderHoney Moon

LYRICS
Full moon. Friday on thirteen.
Ghouls and goon fill spaces in-between
Bloom the loon. Dream scene.
Danger does loom for the human being?

Groom baboon. Pick ticks till you’re clean
With the spoon… the dish has not been seen
The cow’s jumpin’ over the moon
None to soon… knowin’ what I mean

Trial balloon. Superstitiousness obscene
Play the tune. Play it mean and lean
Oh, I see it’s myth and fantasy
Bloom the loon… Dream the scene

Honey moon is your honeymoon over
Or just finding a four-leaf clover?

LYRICS
When I close my eyes, I see the weight of the light
Open to the skies.. gone is the wait of the light

Chorus
The beauty in all you do
Will find its way through
You needn’t think it odd
Under the omniscient eye (I) of God

When I close my mind, I feel the weight of the world
Open up my mind… gone is the wait of the world

Chorus

When I close my mouth, the plight of the meek’s unheard
Open up my mouth… shed light… meek be heard!

LYRICS
Have I been traveling the right way
Through a glorious n’ prosperous day
Am I doing all I can do for you?

Have I been believing what is true
Or am I do for an altered point-of-view
Am I doing all I can do for you?

It’s funny how money is like bees around honey
The bait to tempt your fate to a bent destiny
Am I doing all I can do for you?

The optimal goal — reach the darkest soul
Begin to win our war on sin
What can I do for you?
Pray tell, what can I do for you?

LYRICS
Until I can figure the reason why
I’m going to try, try, try, try

Chorus
When the pushing and shoving outweigh the loving
(Where’s the lovin’?)
When the need to succeed brings out hatred and greed
(Where’s the lovin’?)

Until the captured are free
I’m going to be in search of the key

Chorus

Once you can figure out the way
I’m gonna say it’s a good day

When the pushing and the shoving give way to the loving
(There’s the lovin’!)
When the hatred and greed tide subside
(There’s the lovin’!)

Kids are in the thick of it… suddenly… quite
Not throwing a fit… but

One thing I can say ’bout this road —
It ain’t the middle
As for the burden … the load
No sense to quibble

The middle of the road left, right?

One thing they tall ya ’bout this boat
Better not rock it
Hit ’em with your dollar vote
And say suck it

I dunno…
Did the high road turn low

So this what we meant by destroying our environment
A thesis on how our feces annihilates our species

How long can this go on
How long can we go wrong
How long the same old song
How long can this go on

This surely ain’t heaven sent… more like hell bent
A retrospect on lack of intellect lacking bases for our faces
