LYRICS
At first we started wondering why
The earth had become so dry
Jilted, wilted, parched and cracked
Not a drop of water as a matter of fact

Maybe we spoke to soon
Here comes a massive monsoon
Prepare to take a ride
On the mountain’s mudslide

This weather is as volatile
As a cross-eyed crocodile
Don’t mistake the rile
For a smile

Mother Nature going insane
Another psychopathic hurricane
I am whipped, beatin’ and slammed
Don’t know if I’m going home?

LYRICS
When I think of you
On a cold winter’s night
All I want to do
Is hold you tight

Do you feel we’re overdue
For a lovely rendezvous
A close encounter

Can he hold her?

Do you feel overdue
To be in touch for a few
A close encounter

Please embrace her!

When I dream of you
In the broad daylight
All I want to do
Is hold you tight

LYRICS
Conductor! Conductor!
Check your vector
(check and a re-check check)
We’re on a runaway symphony
It’s easy to see
And I do say
Alert the engine-ear
Right hear!
Right now!
Wow!

Try to cut loose
The caboose
Chasing this train in vain
’cause Conductor, I checked and re-checked our vector
Why chase the train in vain
Off the tracks
No come-backs
This train is runaway
Wouldn’t you say?
On a runaway symphony
Better alert the engine-ear
Ya better stand clear
It’s out-of-control… we’re all… out-of-control
In fact, Conductor,
It’s sounding more and more
Like Rock n’ Roll
… ain’t that classical at all

The End of the line is a mighty fine line
They say you don’t want to cross
This ain’t no coin toss
They say you don’t want to take any chances
’cause there are no seconds
Minutes, days, years
No more tears…
No more joys…
No more noise
No, no more more
No, no train will remain

LYRICS
Down the slide
Another ride
And why not
… to the top!
Look around
Slide back down

Merry-go-round
Circles found
A life’s cycle
Turn around
And rebound

Just how far
On monkey bars
A bizarre
Among the stars
Reach The End
Do it again

Be quite sure
Of the metaphor
The playground
We have found
Is the instance
Of existence

Christmas Candle Light

LYRICS
There’s a way
A cold day
Gets the season
Underway
Then, the glow
Sunshine in the window
Participant in the radiant
With warmth, come to know

The leaves left
Leaving in the light
Shadow’s theft
Looming is the night
Afterglow
Lighting candles in a row
Participant in the radiant
With warmth come to know

If time must transpire
Might as well, light a fire
Participants in the radiance
If time must transpire
By the light of the fire
By a candle light’s glow
With warmth come to know

LYRICS
Sit down in the front row?
Well, I just don’t know
If you’re going to a show
Then, go, go, go
Stand up for a moment
Like a monument
Stand up and be counted
Addi it up… amounted
You know, mojo?
Get off your seat upon your feet
Get your feet upon your seat
If you’re rocking to the beat
Add heat, heat, heat

LYRICS
The candle is burning
As our hearts are yearning
From both ends
Godspeed to learning
Combine with some smiling
The spirit mends
Three kings ace high
Take a sign from the sky
And stop on by
To find out why
The shepherds’ herd
Heard angels on high
Take the sign to answer why

Survival of the fittest
The human race’s race quest
Hard to digest
Self-preservation
Situation frustration
Really for the best…
Is it really for the best?

Three kings ace high
Take a sign from the sky
And stop on by
To find out why
The shepherds’ herd
Heard angels on high
Take the sign to answer why

Has your gift any lift
What is in your heart
What purpose has your presents use
Impart on Christmas Day
Is there merit in your spirit
Is giving love an art
The message in your passage
Impart on Christmas Day
All make your way
Impart on Christmas Day

Has your season any passion
What is in your heart
What purpose has the present
Impart on Christmas Day
Undergo the mistletoe
I try to do my part
A sign of love from above

All make your way

Back in the day
Of the daydreamer
Imagine what can

Imagine while you can
Imagine again

Imagine it into certain

Easier to come through

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
It seems as though the seems
Are splitting
At the seems
Try not forgetting
The seems
In through the cracks
Slip the dreams
Fronts from backs
So it seems
Goes the seams
In through the split
Slips the light
Overshadows “it” —
The dark of night
Out-of-sight
Inside out
Victorious bout
Light wins the fight
So it seems
Goes the seams
It seems as though the seams
Are ripping at the seems
Keep on letting
The seems
Come to light
On the dreams

LYRICS
Keep going ’round ’til it’s found
I’ve stopped
Though not on top
I’ll still be spinning 6′ down
(In the ground)
You bet
A slightly shorter
Trip
But the orbit
Hasn’t changed a bit
The daily trip
Shorter a bit
The annual orbit
Same ole’ habit
Going ’round
Just 6′ down
So when I die
If you’d try
When I die…
If you might
A satellite
Would be out-of-sight
Stardust to stardust
(Or BUST!)

So, this is what we’re waiting for
This moment and not a moment more
Are you really, really
Are you really, really
Sure?

And the sky’s a lovely hue of blue
With the sun reflecting the light that’s you (all of you)
All is clear the here is now
All is here it’s clear it’s now

Anticipate it’s well worth the wait
A vacuum in space void of hate
Are you really, really
Are you really, ready
Participate

An excursion in immersion flow in’
Fill with still yet know in’ move in’
Are you really, really
Are you really, ready
To join in’
