Does anyone know what time Festivus starts?

LYRICS
Come on and get Festivus with us
Come on and get Festivus
With the rest of us (God rest ye merry gentlemen)
A massive Christmas
For the masses
You know
Under the mistletoe
At the corner of Easy Street and Holiday Way
(OK? What do you say)

Krampus put a cramp in your style
Well, stick him in a sack
And whack him with a stick (That’s it. Quick!)
Get your Christmas style on for a while

Forget about the bearded toothless hag
Just stuff Krampus in a bag
Put on your Santa suits
With the big, black, shinny boots

Pop! Up on the rooftop
Down the chimney
Slap your knee
Stomp your foot
Shake off the soot

LYRICS AND CHORDS

Am                   G              Am      G  Am
Little by little the night turns around,

                          G           Am    G  Am
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn

Dm                   C          Dm          C  Dm
Lotus's lean on each other in yearning,

Am               G              Am
Over the hills a swallow is resting

G  Am  F  Am  F  Am

                         G             Am   G  Am  G  Am  G  Am
Set the controls for the heart of the sun

Am                 G                 Am     G  Am
Over the mountains watching the watcher,

                      G               Am    G  Am
Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine

Dm                   C               Dm     C  Dm
Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow,

Am                      G            Am
Love is the shadow that ripens the wine

G  Am  F  Am  F  Am

                         G             Am   G  Am  G  Am
Set the controls for the heart of the sun,

Am
The heart of the sun,  The heart of the sun...

Am                    G            Am       G  Am
Witness the man who waves at the wall,

                        G               Am  G  Am
Making the shape of his questions to heaven

Dm                   C               Dm     C  Dm
Whether the sun will fall in the evening,

Am                   G            Am
Will he remember the lesson of giving?

G  Am  F  Am  F  Am

                         G             Am   G  Am
Set the controls for the heart of the sun,

Am
The heart of the sun,  The heart of the sun...

LYRICS
I could drone on and on and on and on
About civilians prone to the attack of the drone
Like a new born baby, I could cry and wail
About the plight of the killed killer whale

State sanctioned execution
Coal Age pollution electrocution
Currency manipulation devaluation

I could moan on and on and on and on
About civilians prone to the burden of the government loan
Like a scene from a nightmare dream, I could scream
About humans being so #%& damn mean

LYRICS
I’m not looking for you to spare a dime
I’m not looking for any of your time
I’m just asking you do the asking of you

At the end of it all
Can you stand tall?
Will you stand at all… or will you fall?
Yell! Heaven or hell (Hell no!)

Do you offer shelter from the howling wind
Do you offer refuge? It’s time to begin
Implications are huge… not only for you, but me, too

Chorus

ABOUT THIS SONG
While I was trying to record video for how to play the guitar part, the wind was blowing. Since I didn’t yet have a title for the song, I called it what I was trying to do — block the wind. Then, a guy came buy and threw me a dime. The lyrics developed from there.

Posted on by admin

LYRICS

PART I
Mama had a baby and it’s head popped off
Unless there’s less stress
For sure, the pressure will kill
Until,
There’s less stress

Shake that soda up
(Watch that soda pop)

Until,
There’s less stress
In the system
We’ll all be the victim
Of too much pressure
For sure

Shake that soda up
Until it’s soda pop

PART IV
Mama had a baby and it’s head popped off
Unless there’s less stress
The pressure will build
The pressure will kill
Unless there’s less stress

Go ahead, and shake that soda up
Watch that soda pop

Mama had a baby and it’s head popped off

Unless there’s less stress

Go ahead, and shake that soda up
Watch that soda pop

Mama had a baby and it’s head popped off

For sure
The pressure
Will kill

MP3 Trigger Finger ReMix 3

You put the finger….
On the trigger….
Don’t you figure….
Pulling the trigger….
Called for the grave digger….
It’s not a gun….
That makes life undone….

A pistol….
Does not control….
The aiming angle….
A rifle….
Does not spiral….
Out of control….

Only a human….
Can be inhumane….
A gun is not crazy….
Nor sane….

When only facts remain….
With the angels refrain….

Don’t blame it on the thumb….
Not the vertebrate….
On whether we’re predators….
Or pray….

It is our ability….
To recognize….
Our consciouses….
That makes murder….
Immoral….
Immoral for all….
Beings….

Be it the jawbone of an ass….
Or showers of Zyklon B gas….
Bullet, hatchet or guillotine….
Lethal injection to noose….
It takes a human on the loose…
It takes a human….
To make it obscene….

The being brings meaning….
The being brings meaning….
The being brings meaning….

The being brings meaning….

ABOUT THE SONG
The song is about morals and ethics. Only humans have morals and ethics. By definition, a gun can not be evil.

INSTRUMENTATION
Humans, using tools as instruments, turned thoughts into music:
e-machine Laptop, DubStep Studio, Tanseon Voice Synthesizer, Samson Mixboard, Micro-Korg, Casio wk3500 Keyboard, Sennheiser Microphone, DigiTech RP3 (for vocal effects) and a Tascam DR-03 Digital Recorder.

Based on the B chord.
