Needle In The Groove Part 2.mp3

LYRICS
Just drop the needle in the groove
It’s not like I’ve got something to prove
Salve for the wound of fear
The ointment in the instrument
(Instant ointment instrument)
Let the sound sear
And hope your heart will move
Once ya drop the needle in the groove

Pierce your vain
With the needle
Called insane
At the church with the steeple
But we can out-dance the irreverence of those people
Just drop the needle
Hey, do ya really want in on their vanity sin?
Please move to drop the needle in the groove
Let’s start making love

May the music cure what ails ya
The elixir tonic that never fails ya

ABOUT THIS SONG
“Mary was taken up body and soul into heavenly glory, and exalted by the Lord as Queen of the universe, that she might be the more fully conformed to her Son” (Lumen Gentium, 59)

Queen of Heaven is a title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary by Christians mainly of the Roman Catholic Church, and also, to some extent, in Anglicanism and Eastern Orthodoxy, to whom the title is a (disputed) consequence of the First Council of Ephesus in the fifth century, in which the Virgin Mary was proclaimed “theotokos”, a title rendered in Latin as Mater Dei, in English as “Mother of God”.

According to Catholic doctrine, Mary was assumed into heaven and is with Jesus Christ, her divine Son and is represented in the Book of Revelation (chapter 11:19–12:6) as the woman clothed with the sun who gives birth to Christ

LYRICS
Son, ‘fore the end of the age
Of the setting sun
Embark on a factual spiritual voyage
And have some fun

When all is said and done
May it add-up to sum fun
For you
And, those you bless, too

Neighbor, before the labor
And, the spoils won
Endear those near and far
And, share the fun

Try not to wait
’till it’s too late
For those that procrastinate
Heaven won’t wait

Posted on by admin

PART 1
In the solidarity of your solitude
Will you find
More than rhyme
In the solidarity of your solitude
Will it come back
You were just a little too rude

Will you blame it on the moon
Will you say your time came too soon
Can you say your time came too soon

Solidarity Of Your Solitude Part 1.mp3

PART 2
In the solidarity of your solitude
If you lock yourself in a closet
In some sort of insane, crazy bet
That you’ve come to regret
It’s not to hard to open the door

Turns out your solitude
Has nothing to do with being rude
This question.. this inquisition
You must ask yourself
That it was never your intention to be rude
Then you should move on and begin
Just like you know you could
Don’t let them get you down
You’ve got to keep on keeping on
’cause there’s people like me
That are glad you’re around

LYRICS
My favorite star
You shine like the sun
Though nearest… yet so far
You are the same and one

We know without you we can’t grow
Though trite… you are The Light
The fusion of your engine… we can only imagine

No matter seed or womb
We start and end in a tomb
While in between
You sprout out “green”
Then, you bloom

LYRICS
Let’s get real close
But, give me room to breathe

Your industrial noise pollution
Isn’t part of a harmonious solution

Less of a dose
My consciousness retrieve

Why spit n’ shit
In another’s face
Just bring disgrace
On the human race

Let’s get real close
But, give me room to breathe

Stead a love infusion
Peace and understanding lotion
Passing through any hate illusion
To a felling of no one losing

We’re gonna put ya in the cellar tonight
Then, lock the door real tight

In case you’re a menace to society
Lock you up… throw away the key

We’re gonna put ya in the cellar tonight
Then, lock the door real tight

If you’re lucky
The happy monkey
With a purple crayon
The wall you write upon

We’re gonna put ya in the cellar tonight
Then, lock the door real tight

Hey! You may wanna hesitate
Before you cast your fate
Before you mess with the charm of…

I was sitting at the corner of Market and High Streets. Two former courthouses are the location. What is Barnaby’s today, was the original courthouse. In the basement, the windows are still barred on the holding cells.

Can’t you see
The difficulty
With transparency
Maintaining any modesty

Chorus
See what everyone espouses
Living in glass houses
See what everyone exposes
Living in glass houses

You can see
Dirty laundry
Lay sight
On the people of might
Sneak peak
They’re really quite meek

Chorus

Left alone
Or cast the first stone
Doesn’t really matter
If you shatter
Your glass home

LYRICS
Won’t you play me some of that nice music
The kind that makes the kids skip quick
Won’t you play me some of that music
That’ll make me part of the cosmic fabric

Chorus
The ones that make you feel alright
Songs to make the shadows bright
One that will get ya through the night
Song to lift my spirit to the highest heights

Weave me into the dreams of the universe
With the rhyme and tempo for a catchy verse
Something I can grasp… not too perverse
That repeats in my head like a blessed curse

If ever there was a time
For a sure thing
This would be the time
To bring
Make it yours
Make it mine
’cause this is a time for a sure thing

I’d like to take the time to say
This is a good day

If ever there was a time
For a sure thing
Let’s see what we can bring

Let’s get it on
Let’s have begun

Let’s bring everything

If we can raise praise…
Please may we raise the praise

Now, give it up

Give it up
Give it over to the sure
I can see what She can bring
I can see… eternity
I can see we can be

LYRICS
Said, the cat to the mouse,
“The race is on”
You know the race is on
Run!

The race is on

You know the race is on
When you hear the starting gun
The race is on
It’s time to run

Said, the dog to the cat,
“The race is on…
Didn’t you hear the starting gun?
Come on and run ’cause the race is on”

You know the race is on
When you hear the starting gun
Come on and run

Don’t hesitate as we commence the chase

Said, the spider to the fly,
“The race is on…
Go on and run,
The sticky web that I weave
Makes it hard to leave.”

Come on the race is on

1, 2… 1, 2 ready go

They’re off!
The race is on

You better run
Before the setting sun

Didn’t you hear the starting gun?
It’s in my heart to give you a little head start

I might think that I know it all
But, if I knew it all
I’d know I don’t know it all

What I don’t know

Some of the stuff I thought I know
… I was wrong
Some of the stuff I thought I knew
… it’s a sad song
But, now I know
I know

When it comes to that
I know exactly where it’s at

I might think that I know it all
But, if I knew it all
I’d know I don’t know it all

About mistakes
There’s something I can take from every mistake
What I don’t know
I don’t at all

I don’t know what I don’t know
I don’t know that at all
