Play Hard

Posted on March 23, 2014March 23, 2014 by admin

LYRICS
Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

It’s half past eight
And, we’re running late
Doesn’t matter much
’cause we’re feeling great

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

Forget destiny or even fate
Gonna kick it out at any rate
Use a smile or laugh as bait
Gonna catch a memory… forever recreate

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

When we get on stage
And start to play
We’ll make the most
Of any day
Immediately — without delay
Troubles with Blues simply melt away

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

ABOUT THIS SONG
This song was written about a live performance. After getting off stage, a musician that hold in the highest regards came over to me and said, “You sure look like you are having a good time when you perform. It’s infectious.”

LYRICS
How thick is your medium?
It’s been found
The speed of sound
Well, it ah, um…
I’ll ask it
Is it propagating through an elastic medium?

Because if it’s gotta travel through space
You’ll have to face
The tedium
What’s your medium?
Too thick or too thin… hard to get the sound movin’

Ya ever wonder your Mach number?
For fluid dynamics tricks
Pass through a gas
Divide your speed by the speed of sound
For your Mach to be found

If excitement you crave
Catch the sound wave
Succeed at Mach speed

ABOUT THIS SONG
speed of sound at sea level = 761.207051 mph

The speed of sound is the distance travelled during a unit of time by a sound wave propagating through an elastic medium. In dry air at 20 °C (68 °F), the speed of sound is 343 metres per second (1,125 ft/s). This is 1,234 kilometres per hour (767 mph), or about a kilometre in three seconds or a mile in five seconds.

In fluid dynamics, the speed of sound in a fluid medium (gas or liquid) is used as a relative measure of speed itself. The speed of an object divided by the speed of sound in the fluid is called the Mach number. Objects moving at speeds greater than Mach1 are traveling at supersonic speeds. — Wikipedia

LYRICS
The teeth of the saw
Chew through
The eye-of-a-needle
Sees you
Hey, Ma and Pa
Am I just feeble?

It’s time to come clean
There’s a man in the machine

The mouth of the river
Flows foul
The arm of the law
Isn’t just
Justice turned to lust
Makes ya shiver

It’s time to come clean
There’s a man in the machine

LYRICS
Is it fair to suggest you’re addicted to air?
Will you share… or afraid to go there?
Is it just to say that eating’s a must?
As you need to nourish flesh
Or else you’ll be a mess
If you don’t nourish
Your soul
It will take a toll…

Once you invoke your spirit
You’ll never want it to quit

LYRICS
Once I was in love
With just one human being
Then after seeing
Wonder how monogamy won?

Would much rather
That love from above
Then to gather
Pain from a strain

Love for all
Everywhere
Not a stall
Became aware (become aware)

LYRICS
Don’t let the gravitational pull
Pull the wool
Over your eyes

Big bang!
Surprise

Now, here’s the thang
Though not quite in grasp of your fingers
It still lingers

The way Big Bang behaves…
Primordial gravitational waves
I mean, it’s worthy of a primal scream

Yeeha! Big bang!

LYRICS
If you don’t like what you’re hearin’
Would you rather be deaf?
Maybe you’re better off doin’
What you do best

Can you write a song?
How about do a dance?
If you could sing, that’d be just the thing
Sing, along

LYRICS
Um,
This is a test
Of the here and now
Time and space
Continuum

Is this human race
Somehow
At rest

Time we passed the past
Hope our present lasts
To our future success

What satisfaction
If just a fraction
Civilization

Some elimination
Of starvation
And, degradation
Some elevation
Of realization
And, appreciation

LYRICS
I wonder
Where do all the lives go
When you die
Where do all the lives go
Do you know?

Clap of thunder
In the blink of an eye
There’ll be no more I
Where does the life go
Do you know?

I sure pray this sole soul
Lands in the promised land
A promise is a promise
How can you miss?
