bookmark_borderLove From Hate

LYRICS
They’re going irate
Better separate
The love from hate
Before it’s too late
You can’t outfox a rock
Out of the box in-stock
The lion’s share is “their”
And, they don’t share
(And, they don’t care)

They’re going insane
Better refrain
Trying to tame
You’ll end up lame

They won’t take the blame
Ain’t it a shame
A con-man’s game
Stolen fortune and fame

bookmark_borderYour Mess Call

LYRICS
Hopped on the train
Ridin’ disdain
Next stop on the tide to the top
Given to the have’s not the have nots
Hopped on the train
Ridin’ disdain
Dear, Lord, everybody on board
Live by the war die by the sword
You can’t get to heaven driving a tank
After all, it’s your mess call
… who do you thank?

Do you have your ticket, Sir
If not, back where you were
Does this train have a brain
Autopilot’s on

bookmark_borderRight Left (Marching Orders)

LYRICS
Watch the fascists enlist
With a popular populist twist
Evangelical cast in hell
With hate they taint the well
Reason on the right, left (right, left, right left)
Free-dumb ruled by the daft
Hitler and Mussolini said
Best if you and me inbred

Watch the fascists enlist
With a popular populist twist
Based on fear and cruelty
Nothing near morality
The blind leading the blind
To be unkind

LYRICS
Strangest of days
Found a new craze
Rat in the maze
What are you
Going to do
When it goes down to you?
Are you going to cave
Or be the one to save

Sharpest of ways
Newfangled phase
Completely amazed
What are you
Going to do
When it goes down to you?
Are you going to cave
Or be the one to save

Out of the haze
Catch the wave
No longer slave
What are you
Going to do
When it goes down to you?
Are you going to cave
Or be the one to save

bookmark_borderOstrich Outrage

LYRICS
Outrage of an ostrich
Put your head in the sand
When you don’t understand
Supply the demand
Reason the season
Is no season for reason
Running bullheaded
Enlightenment dreaded
Twisted logic
Busted tragic
Blinders on
Conclusion foregone

Pose of a possum
Role playing dead
No use for a head
That’s been inbred
Deer in the headlights
Paralyzed by fright
Surprised in the night
Cowards our blight
Twisted logic
Busted tragic
Blinders on
Conclusion foregone

Time for reason
To do the pleasin’
Running clear headed
The light embedded

LYRICS
Watch out for the epic fall
Don’t want to scratch on the 8 ball
When you’re out in the lead
Don’t want to fall and bleed
This is my cue to hold the cue
In my mind’s-eye’s view
8 ball in the corner pocket
Mind’s eye falls out of socket
Oh no there’s the catch
The cue, too, is a scratch

bookmark_borderBrain Wreck

LYRICS
Have you heard about the fad
That’s going ’round?
Trains off the track bad
And hellward bound
What the heck
More than a train wreck
More than a brain wreck
I suspect
Rack ’em up and know ’em down

Think of all you could have had
Listening to the sound
Oh try not to get too sad
Heavens can be found
You can deflect
Those that infect
They’ve got to yield to your shield

Rack ’em up and know ’em down

bookmark_borderOf Unknown Origin

LYRICS
Can you please tell me
I clearly can not see
On which planet did I land?
For I do not understand

At it again
Where to begin
Up for win-win
Know where I’ve been
Nowhere I’ve been
Hope that I can
In still I will
Instill I will

Can you take me by the hand
Help me to understand
Please take me to your leader
We’ll pray he’s not a bottom feeder
Oh, no! Do tell
Are we in hell
Did we roll the dice
Landing on the anti-Christ?

LYRICS
Begging for more
What’s in store
Blood and gore
Sure you want more?
Can you endure

Slash and burn
Wave your turn
Never learn
Sure you want more?
Can you endure

The hens are in the hen house
No stirring… not a mouse
No chance of an ambulance
Dirge splurge and dance

Ticking bomb
Won’t be long
’til we’re gone
Sure you want more?
Can you endure

Vietnam
Rains napalm
Sing your psalm
Sure you want more?
Can you endure

LYRICS
Bits of fits and tantrums
Is what you’re all about
Clenched fists and war drums
Brings on a crying bout
Cry, baby, cry
Watching credibility die
Cry, baby, cry

Hissy fits… you’re yelling
It’s yourself you’re selling
Crying over id
’cause of what you did
Cry, baby, cry
Watching credibility die
Cry, baby, cry

Claim to be a judge
Yet, have no judgement
Character’s what’s meant
Your pedestal needs a nudge
Cry, baby, cry
Watching credibility die
Cry, baby, cry

bookmark_borderYour Place Or Mine?

LYRICS
If you make everywhere your home
Then everywhere that you roam
Is home
The only baggage you will need
Is for your heart to feed
Bleed seed
Feed the heart from the start
And leave your baggage at home
Free to roam

The less that you carry
The more merry on the journey
The more that you give away
The less take any given day

If you let your heart
Do its part
You’ll never be alone
In the presence of existence
Always at home
