bookmark_borderPole Vault

LYRICS
How long…?

And if you use a pole to vault
Is that really your fault?

How long
Is the long jump
(How long, how long)
How high
Is the high jump?
(Thump, thump)
And if you use a pole to vault
Is that really your fault?
Astounds with leaps and bounds
Aspire ever higher

bookmark_borderI of the Storm

LYRICS
Looking back
Should’ve looked forward
Wrongway slack
Oh, God! My Lord!
Better grab my sword
Attack!
My eyes see the crises
In the I of the storm
Dot the I’s in crisis
Cross your t’s… forewarned

In hindsight
Should’ve had foresight
Am I right?
Backed in a corner… fight!
Better grab my gun
And, run!
My eyes see the crises
In the I of the storm
Dot the I’s in crisis
Cross your t’s… forewarned
My eyes have seen the crises
In the I of the storm

A song about the climate crisis and the environmental crises that we should have seen coming. How do you intend to fight the extreme weather… sword… gun?

LYRICS
When it comes to thirst
You know that first comes first
Find a hideaway
Decide to stay?

What’s to recommend

Decide to stay?

bookmark_borderMore Freedom?

LYRICS
More freedom?
DO you wonder how come
More responsibility
Falls upon me
Going from rags to riches
Comes with some hitches

More freedom?
We wonder how come
Social consequence
Comes with common sense
Action sequence
No sitting on the fence

More freedom?
Loose and undone
It’s time once again
To find a good citizen
Utilizing judgement
Of what freedom meant
What’s it mean
American scene

Does the memory bank read error
Sir, cuts on overload
Memory banks erode

When checking into the facility
Does the neon sign say “know vacancy”
Miss, calculate overload

bookmark_borderSuperpowers?

LYRICS
Can you see through lead lined walls
Survive stopping the greatest falls
Can you? Will you?
Can you stop a speeding bullet
Hit your chest and live right through it?
Can you? Will you?

Superpowers
That last for hours and hours
Superpowers
That save ours and ours

As the time ticks down
We’re on our own
10, 9, 8… 3, 2, run!

LYRICS
Sitting in with the garden
Is really starting to grow
On me
Now I see
Wallflowers
Know how to flow
We’ll put the flowers to bed
And shed some shred
Flush in the brush
Brush with the flush
Know what it means
In the greens

For sure
I’m not sure
Ship it to the future

What will be
What we’ll be

bookmark_borderDangling Participle

LYRICS
I suppose it arose
With dangling participle prose
“Eyeing little girls with bad intent”
Si that what he meant?
Starting to stammer (s,s,s,st,st… ammer)
Over his grammar
Lost in a neighborhood
Of the misunderstood
About to find out
There’s know direction out
Couldn’t get much more absurd
… at a loss for words

You dance to rock n’ roll
I hear you scream
Long live rock n’ roll

Heart and soul
Commit the body whole

If you lift the burden from your chest

Certain things that have been said
I just can’t get them out of my head

Find the way back
Way back heart attack
Climb top the stack
Give a start attack

Make every day a dance
From the rising
