Posted on by admin

LYRICS
At the end of the day
That’s the way
Opinions sway
n’ fray
Is it O.K.
To change the way
You see the day
Today
The grass is greener on whichever side
You choose to reside
What you hoard deep inside
Becomes your Lord to load your ride
Lighten your load
The baggage adage
Is it time to concede
All you need?

At the start of the day
Do you say
Make the best of the rest
Find a way
To say O.K.
I’m up for the test
Good day!
The grass is greener on whichever side
You choose to reside
What you hoard deep inside
Becomes your Lord to load your ride
Lighten your load
The baggage adage
Is it time to concede
All you need?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
No longer there
Into thin air
Poof!
Among the aloof
Poof!
The human spoof
The space we displace
Is equal to the disgrace
Let’s cleanup this place
Restore faith in the race

the human race
Gone without trace
Poof!
Among the aloof
Poof!
The human spoof
The space we displace
Is equal to the disgrace
Let’s cleanup this place
Restore faith in the race

Far from rat race
A whole new pace
Poof!
Among the aloof
Poof!
The human spoof
The space we displace
Is equal to the disgrace
Let’s cleanup this place
Restore faith in the race

Are we aware
We’re almost there
Poof!
Among the aloof
Poof!
The human spoof
The space we displace
Is equal to the disgrace
Let’s cleanup this place
Restore faith in the race

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
They’re saying there’s less birds to sing
I’m saying, well, here’s the thing
If to the table all we bring
Is no and woe/woah
The same old thing
Who can stand us anyhow
Can’t understand us now

They’re praying the killing stops
Questioning was it the cops
If to the table all we bring
Is no and woe/woah
The same old thing
Who can stand us anyhow
Can’t understand us now

Offering prayers and thoughts
While their black heart rots
If to the table all we bring
Is no and woe/woah
The same old thing
Who can stand us anyhow
Can’t understand us now

Patriot pollute salute
Leaving all destitute
If to the table all we bring
Is no and woe/woah
The same old thing
Who can stand us anyhow
Can’t understand us now

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Sorry if I’m out of place
But what’s up with the human race
I swear they trashed the place
So what’s up with the human race?
Misunderstanding?
Worth reprimanding
De-Man-ding
All the time Man wonders why
God’s hand came out of the sky
Misunderstanding?
Worth reprimanding
De-Man-ding
Sorry if I’m out of place
But what’s up with the human race
I swear they trashed the place
So what’s up with the human race?
Misunderstanding?
Worth reprimanding
De-Man-ding
Simpletons smirk at the woke
Problem is… it ain’t no joke
Sorry if I’m out of place
But what’s up with the human race
I swear they trashed the place
So what’s up with the human race?
Misunderstanding?
Worth reprimanding
De-Man-ding

The damned demand
Our looming toil

Suck fossil fuel

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Heaven only knows
What’s coming
Watch as suspense grows
Mind numbing
Some say the situation’s dire
I suppose when your world’s on fire

Heaven only knows
What’s coming
Watch as suspense grows
Mind numbing
There are those that idly transpire
All the while their pants on fire

Heaven only knows
What’s coming
Watch as suspense grows
Mind numbing
Maybe some think they’ll retire
Odds remote when consumed by fire

Heaven only knows
What’s coming
Watch as suspense grows
Mind numbing
About the farm
They say you’re the buyer
Bought the farm
Fighting fire with fire

LYRICS
Rain reign
Will you ever come again
Rain reign
When will you begin
Without a doubt
Got to end the drought
This lack of rain’s insane

Rain reign
Arrived this very day
Rain reign
Are you here to stay?
Without a doubt
Got to end the drought
This lack of rain’s insane

Raining every dog gone day
Rain reign
Won’t you please go away
Neck deep in mud
Got to end the flood
This constant rain’s insane

LYRICS
What do you say
We go out of our way
This morning
That is to say
Take the time to persuade
Sound alarming
When I say the sky is falling
Let me be clear
I’m not saying The End is near
Rather atmospheric rivers squalling

What do you say
We go out of our way
Today
Not to evade
Take the time to persuade
Hear what we say
When I say the sky is falling
Let me be clear
I’m not saying The End is near
Rather atmospheric rivers squalling
It’s the ocean falling
Human-made shivers
Atmospheric rivers
Falling down
Rising up
And round and round

LYRICS
Misty morning
Please start blowing
Away
Accompany in
A sunny day

No wind today
Fog’s here to stay
No wind today
Please stop! Don’t tease
Praying for a breeze
Lord, start blowing
Away
Accompany in
A sunny day

Misty evening
Senses grieving
Misty evening
If there was a sun
She is long done
But you know what they say
Tomorrow’s another day

LYRICS
I don’t know if it’s a problem
If you know how to solve it
If he’s in need no need to rob him
Start with compassion
Evolve it
I’m on my knees
’cause it’s how I please
To thank you
… thank you!

I wouldn’t call it a problem
Now you know how to solve it
Doesn’t need to be us or them
Start with compassion
Evolve it
I’m on my knees
’cause it’s how I please
To thank you
… thank you!

Wasn’t much of a problem
Figured out how to solve it
Daydreaming R.E.M.
Compassion passion
Evolve it

’cause it’s how I please
To thank you

LYRICS
There’s more than one way to get busy
What do you think of that?
The street goes both ways… it’s that easy
Who wants to tit-for-tat?
No such thing
As an infinite bubble
Noticing
Might be time to get humble
Pre-pop
Pop

Social gossip’s thrown in a tizzy
What do you think of that?
Head spinning enough to make you dizzy
Who wants to tit-for-tat?
No such thing
As an infinite bubble
Noticing
Might be time to get humble
Pre-pop
Pop

Empathy airwaves feeling fuzzy
Who do you think needs that?
More of a monkey than a savior, was he?
who want hate in a hat?
No such thing
As an infinite bubble
Noticing
Might be time to get humble
Pre-pop

Keeping score
We’re in for it

Can’t endure

Won’t endure

Keeping score
We’re in for it

And once more

No, no more
We’re over it
Say no more

Make haste
Not waste
Faced
With distaste
Boldfaced
Disgrace
Make haste
Not waste
Create sustainment
Perfect (pɜrˈfekt) obtainment
Perfect (pɜrˈfikt) obtainment

Less used
And abused
All refused
Then lit the fuse
Now under the gun
And on the run
Less used
And abused
Make haste
Not waste
Create sustainment
Perfect obtainment

Waste not
Want not
Enough whatnot
Forgot
The rot
Waste not

Less used
And abused
Make haste
Not waste
Create sustainment
Perfect obtainment
