LYRICS
An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
Tag! You’re it
Lag… times a bit
No icing left on the cake
If all there is is take, take, take

An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
Tag! You’re it
Lag… times a bit
What’s all this reign from above
Who remembers love, love, love?

An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
Tag! You’re it
Lag… times a bit
If you’re living life in competition
Destined for desolation

An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
An American rag
’bout ‘merican tag
Tag! You’re it
Lag… times a bit
What’s all this reign from above
Who remembers love, love, love?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Want to let you know
Really hate to go
But the if, and, and buts
Simply make it a must
The bonds that hold us together
Can’t withstand the whether
The bonds that hold us together
Can’t withstand the weather

So now that you know
Apart we shall grow
Since the if, and, and buts
Simply make it a must
The bonds that hold us together
Can’t withstand the whether
The bonds that hold us together
Can’t withstand the weather

Been to to and fro
Evidence shall show
That the if, and, and buts
Simply make it a must
The bonds that hold us together
Can’t withstand the whether
The bonds that hold us together
Can’t withstand the weather

Looking back on Mother Earth
Appreciate my birth
Next life hope to keep in mind
To my Mother should be kind

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Say human
Just for fun
Hey human
Can you just have one
Say human
(A humane humanity?)
Can you just have one potato chip
Without the entire bowl of dip
Can you be a little for a little bit
Without being tragically hip?

Say human
Just for fun
Hey human
Can you just have one
Say human
(A humane humanity?)
Can you just have one automobile
Without it being a really big deal
Can you be a little less and still be real
Remember to touch… remember to feel?

Say human
Just for fun
Hey human
Can you just have one
Say human
(A humane humanity?)
Can you just have one residence
Can you be a little more resilient
Without harboring resentment?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Fair is fair
Is there’s any there
In despair
Anybody care?
The attitude
Of our fortitude
Will be our driving force
An interlude
In our magnitude
Off of our winding course

Fair is fair
Is there’s any there
In despair
Anybody care?
The amplitude
Of our gratitude
How high our spirits fly
Our servitude
Be it platitude
Will we live… will we die

Fair is fair
Is there’s any there
In despair
Anybody care?
Our habitude
Wasting platitude
May lead to our demise
Our multitude
Will be barbecued
If we don’t realize

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do you see light at the end
Can we tunnel through
Will laws of physics bend
We can always make do
The fixin’ of fascism
The divisions of the prism
Colors true
The beating of the rhythm
The uniting of the schism
True-blue

Can we do right… make amends
Or we pummel through
The meaning the message sends
Do the best we can do
The fixin’ of fascism
The divisions of the prism
Colors true
The beating of the rhythm
The uniting of the schism
True-blue

If only all could be friends
You know we’d pull through
Who wants to bring on The End
Wait till my time is due
The fixin’ of fascism
The divisions of the prism
Colors true
The beating of the rhythm
The uniting of the schism
True-blue

LYRICS
Now comes down to how
Bad we want it
Thrill to the last kill
Sad we’ve done it
Tell me how bad we want it
Do we have far to go
Tell me how long to get it
Does our behavior show
Oh, no

Now comes down to how
Bad we want it
Lost battles, more war
Guess we won it?
Tell me how bad we want it
Do we have far to go
Tell me how long to get it
Will our behavior slow
Oh, woe / woah

Now comes down to how
Bad we want it
Glad for what we’ve had
Hope we save it
Tell me how bad we want it
Do we have far to go
Tell me how long to get it
Can we still grow to know
Hope so

LYRICS
Let’s all see what we can do
How ’bout it?
I’m all in… how about you?
How ’bout it?
If Man’s the plan
How will we get through
With Man’s command
How will we make do?

Be the best we can be
How ’bout it?
Share the love while it’s free
How ’bout it?
If the plan’s Man
How will we get through
With Man’s command
How will we make do?

Stand the test of our time
How ’bout it?
Be the brightest to shine
How ’bout it?
If Man’s the plan
How will we get through
With Man’s command
How will we make do?

LYRICS
Been here before
You abhor war?
I really don’t know where to begin
Man upon Man again and again
Definin’ sin

Still back for more
Not enough gore
I really don’t know where to begin
Man upon Man again and again
Definin’ sin

It reigns the poor
The same ole’ tour
It rips and roars
We have no more more
(no more)
I really don’t know where to begin
Man upon Man again and again
Definin’ sin

LYRICS
Sitting on the edge of the world
Spinning round
Watching modern civilization
Falling down
Before their time
What a crime
Are you cryin’
I know I’m….

Sitting on the verge of deep space
Spinning round
Watching the human race
Coming down
Before their time
What a crime
Are you cryin’
I know I’m….

Shout out about the situation
Going round
Watching the population
Winding down
Before their time
What a crime
Are you cryin’
I know I’m….

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Well outside of in the machine
I can’t help but living the dream
Living the dream
What do you deem?
Does your though run hot
Does the cold grab hold
After the “what not”
Did we just grow old

How far outside the lines to draw
Think outside of the box at all?
Living the dream
What do you deem?
Does your though run hot
Does the cold grab hold
After the “what not”
Did we just grow old

We’ll run outside of the rat race
Flight at a speed of light pace
Living the dream
What do you deem?
Does your though run hot
Does the cold grab hold
After the “what not”
Did we just grow old

LYRICS
There’s something I’m really dying to know
If you don’t go down fighting
Do you go down slow
Do you slowly fade away
Wade in the river Styx
Unconscious of day-to-day (today)
While stuck betwixt

There’s something I’m really dying to know
If you go down fighting
Do you go down low
Do you slowly fade away
Wade in the river Styx
Unconscious of day-to-day (today)
While stuck betwixt

There’s something I’m really dying to know
If you give up enlightening
Will you lose your glow
Do you slowly fade away
Wade in the river Styx
Unconscious of day-to-day (today)
While stuck betwixt

Breezes blowing
The streams flowing
Knowing growing
Sing!
Walk to the ledge
Look over the edge
And pledge
(Know how far to go)

Waters streaming

Knowing growing
Sing!
Walk to the ledge
Look over the edge
And pledge

Crossroads forking
Future’s lurking
Growing knowing
Sing!
Walk to the ledge
Look over the edge
And pledge

LYRICS
Half-past eleven
Or a quarter till two
This ain’t heaven
What on Earth shall I do?
Half-past eleven
Or a quarter till too

The inside’s out
The outside’s in
Can’t figure out
Where to begin
Half-past eleven
Or a quarter till two
This ain’t heaven
What on Earth shall I do?
Half-past eleven
Or a quarter till too

The upside’s down
All turned around
The real riddle
Where’s the middle?
Half-past eleven
Or a quarter till two
This ain’t heaven
What on Earth shall I do?
Half-past eleven
Or a quarter till too

LYRICS
Am I awake
I can’t tell if I’m dreaming
See what’s at stake
My eyes see it streaming
If at first you do not succeed
Try not to cry and try not to bleed
If you try and try again
You’ll know where to start to begin

Be the earthquake
Certain to move the mountain
What’s your give/take
Be the drain or fountain?
If at first you do not succeed
Try not to cry and try not to bleed
If you try and try again
You’ll know where to start to begin

To understand
The divine or the damned
Mental command
Compassion and lending hand
If at first you do not succeed
Try not to cry and try not to bleed
If you try and try again
You’ll know where to start to begin

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Stop!
Do you really think we can get the people
To stop?!?!
Just stop
Stop all that haste to waste
Have some taste
Stop natural loot and pollute
Start the heart
Jumpstart
Start the others to stop
Stop all the abuse of use
Cut it loose
Stop the crime of ending time
Start their heart
Jumpstart

Stop!
Do you really think we can get the people
To stop?!?!
Jumpstart
Maybe we’re not dead in the head
Jumpstart
Maybe if we tried
Our heart hasn’t died
Jumpstart
