Your mark
Get set
Go!
Getting
In the
Know
Upon review, yes, I do really miss you
Won’t compare less you’re there to share the air
Your mark
Get set
Go!
Let the
Feelings
Flow
Upon reveal can’t conceal how I really feel
Now through the air that we share… I dream you’re there
Your mark
Get set
Go!
Watching
The love
Grow
From here to there… it’s everywhere making absence rare
It fills the space between the place as though we are face-to-face

LYRICS
Why don’t you be like us
Learn how to spit and cuss
Throw loved ones under the bus
Why don’t you be like us
Full of pompous puss
The feat of conceit and fuss
Quick! Avoid the clique
As he clock goes tock… and tick
Why don’t you be like us
Vain pain of gorgeous
Drain of the ignoramus
Why don’t you be like us
Greedy for famous
Won’t listen or discuss
Quick! Avoid the clique
As he clock goes tock… and tick

LYRICS
One plus one still equals two
There’s not much you can do
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more
Two plus two still equals four
It’s not a but, if or or
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more
If four plus four equals eight
Maybe it’s not two too late
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more
’cause you know that in The End
Five plus five still equals ten
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more

LYRICS
We cordially invite you to the zoo
We invite you
To Sunday at the zoo
Come on and do what you wanna do
You know you want to
At the zoo
When you get there
Music fills the air
Are there vultures?
Yeah! For sure
Going to be zebras and a whole lot more
Not to mention Homo sapiens galore
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo
I’m going to the zoo
Are you going, too
I’m going to the zoo
That’s what I really, really want to do
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo
The Bald Eagle is looking regal
And you don’t want to miss
Reindeer at Christmas
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo
Have you heard the herd
Seen the scene
There’s so much to touch
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo
See ya later alligator!

LYRICS
When are they gonna set the bail
It’s been too long within
Why is there even a trial
When I’ve done nothin’
The hypocrite throws a fit
That’s it just quit
Ya know I’d love to set sail
It’s time that they let me out
The real crime’s puttin’ me in jail
It’s enough to make a sane man shout
The hypocrite comes equipped
For your wings to be clipped
Into my coffin the final nail
No! Surely, I’ll be set free
Or to the hypocrite must I hail?
What happened to our democracy

bookmark_borderHitchhiking To Heaven (or Bust)
LYRICS
Was given birth on an island
The third one from the sun
They call it Earth — my asylum
Long may our days run
As we travel round and round
How do we know if we’re upside down
As we spin round and round
Starting from where we’re bound
Came to Earth as an infant
Second son of a second son
Only know can, not can’t
Long may our days run
Chorus
Gonna leave when I die
No need to gasp. No need to sigh
Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust
Hitchhiking to heaven or bust

LYRICS
Are you telling me this is reality
From what I see there’s a discrepancy
Get your elbows off the table
Where are your manners
This ain’t no epic fable
Take down your signs and banners
I’m not certain… is Tim Burton
Directing?
It’s geared for the sooo weird
Retrospecting
Close your mouth when you’re chewing
Where are your manners
I mean… what the hell are you doing
Have you gone bananas?
ABOUT THE SONG

A song that asks the question: “Is Tim Burton directing the Presidential Election?”

LYRICS
I’ll give you one guess
As to who created the mess
It wasn’t the birds
It wasn’t the bees
Wasn’t the monkeys
Swinging from the trees
I’ll give you one guess
As to who created the mess
Too late to warn
The bees swarm
Birds take flight
Out of fright
We’ve made a monkey
Out of me
I’ll give you one guess
As to who created the mess
One guess
Well, can’t you see
There ain’t no honey
The goose that lays the golden eggs is gone
At some point the light of insight will dawn

LYRICS
Can’t you see his life’s in jeopardy
Can we bear to kill another bear
Should be aware of the cross we’ll bear
Bi-polar killing the polar bear
Who’s more mighty… we or he
Certainly our insanity
All the mighty lossin’ dignity
In their fight for me, me, me
First is past but last can’t be first
When the population bubble bursts
