LYRICS
Wake up
Asleep at the wheel
Wake up
Missing the deal
Wake up
Do you even know
… changed the definition of yes to no

Wake up
Can you even feel
Wake up
Differentiate real
Wake up
Do you even know
… changed the definition of yes to no

Wake up
Am I preaching to the choir
Wake up
Our leader is a liar
Wake up
Do you even know
… changed the definition of yes to no

LYRICS
I don’t drink any more
No, not like before
I don’t drink any more
But confess
… I don’t drink any less

I don’t drink any more
Quest to be a bore (Quite the boar)
I don’t drink any more
But profess
I don’t drink any less

Did you hear
99 bottles of beer on the wall
99 bottles of beer
You take one down
Pass it ’round
The order’s tall
98 bottles of beer on the wall

LYRICS
Can you shed a little love this way
Head a little love this way
You led a little love this way
I’m OK

Haste to fine
When you taste divine
Haste to find
While we have the time

Can you share a little care this way
Flare a little care this way
There… a little care this way
I’m OK

Can you shine a little light this way
Opine for the light this way
Mine is just right this way
I’m OK

LYRICS
Under the blue
Over the green
My God, what a lovely scene
Visions of you
Being here, too
In the scene serene
[Break / Jam]
Are you sure
No need for an anchor?
The flows give and take
Adrift on a lake
We can take
Any wake
Please take note
Rockin’ the boat
We’ll roll with the waves
Be the lifeguard that saves

LYRICS
One thing leads to another
Brother, it’s easy to see
Connect the dots
Wants to gots
Easy to see
1, 2, 3

One thing leads to another
Mother, you created me
Connect the dots
Wants to gots
Easy to see
1, 2, 3

Nothing is left undone
Son, it’s easy to see
Connect the dots
Wants to gots
Easy to see
1, 2, 3

Starts to flow like water
Daughter, what will you be?
Connect the dots
Wants to gots
Easy to see
1, 2, 3

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
They say that our day
Is only a heartbeat
Only a heartbeat
Away
Sing out throughout the countryside
Sing out both far and wide
Sing out what is inside

They say that our age
Is more than a heartbeat
A collective heartbeat
Play on the world stage
Sing out throughout the countryside
Sing out both far and wide
Sing out what is inside

They say that our way
Could be the last heartbeat
Be the last heartbeat
Frolic in the foray
Sing out throughout the countryside
Sing out both far and wide
Sing out what is inside

They say our heartbeating
Is our only heartbeat
Only our heartbeat
And could be fleeting
Sing out throughout the countryside
Sing out both far and wide
Sing out what is inside

LYRICS
Gullible was a giant
As man is to an ant
A monster among men
No logic to disable
Listened to any rant
Believe it when
Believe it then
Gullible
Gullible’s travels
The ables farewell
Ties him down
While he was dozing
Woke with frown
Simply amazing
No not “can not”

LYRICS
Set adrift on a riff
Setting sail of a tale
See the sea
Within me
Finding out what you’re about
Peace unyielding
Won’t cease
Most revealing
… at least
Give and take
Even on a lake
See the see shanty
I’m to be
If you’re a river
No damn dam
Downstream
Even in a bath
You connect the math

LYRICS
Precariously perched perpendicular
Razor’s edge
On the ledge
Glad I gave balance a chance

Sometimes best if you don’t look down
If there’s a need to focus all around
Glad I gave balance a chance

The outlaw Josey Wales
Spits… evil wails
No need to think
… or blink

On the verge of a surge
On the edge
Commence
Emerge
Glad I gave balance a chance

LYRICS
Have you ever paused to ponder
What might have been
If you’d come alive
Come out hollering and kicking
If you’d have had a life…
A life within it livin’
Jessica,
Would have love to hear you crying
Jessica,
Watched you trying ‘stead of dying

LYRICS
A mid-life fantasy
Only crisis I see
Is happening to someone…
Younger than me
No need for money
’cause there’s…
No need for a honey
Instead of a fortune going to waste
Going to give real living a taste
(giving into living
participate in give and take)

Fathom the quality
When all you’ve got is quantity
A whole other ditty
About giving pity
This is to be the situation:
A celebration of appreciation

LYRICS
I can see the ripples expanding
Their circumference exploding
Growing ever larger
The shoreline has a charger
An ever wider reach
Reaching the beach
Escaping
Cascading
Realizing
Capsizing

Destination upon the banks
To Neptune give thanks
As we venture onto land
Adventure to understand
Real terrestrial
Surreal celestial
Sending a signal
A message to all
Send a signal
A message for all
