LYRICS
If there’s a mountain
That’s interruptin’
I guess she’ll have to move
There can be no mountain
That’s interruptin’
Must confess my love
To you
Movin’ mountain
(Mountain movin’)
’til that mountain’s
More mole hole
Movin’ mountain
I will move earth and sky
’til the angels cry
Making mountains
Into mole hills
And for thrills
Sparkling fountains

LYRICS
Here we stand
With our feet in the sand
Watching the tide roll out
Wonderin’ if it will roll in again?
Rollin’ in again… wonderin’ if n’ when
Wonderin’ if it will roll in again?

What about if it does
Rise higher than it was
On the horizon
The tide keeps risin’
They revel about the sea level
Well, not being level
Trending upward on land disheveled

What’s up? Are you sure
Where the land and “see” merge
You land submerged at the shore
… forevermore

If n’ When.mp3

LYRICS
Feeling that it’s out of you hands?
Let’s turn it around
Turn it around
Feeling that nobody understands?
Let’s give ’em a hand
Show ’em around
The least we can do
… introduce them to you
Pass the connection through

You and I
Slices of the π
Puzzle peaces
Species under sky
Interconnected
Effected habitat (imagine that)
Clearly clinging to gravity
Can you see?

Can you capture
The big picture
Conjecture the texture
Of our structure
Can you picture?

LYRICS
If the dream seems too serene
Listen to the inside
To hear the silent scream

The proof is in the pudding
The cream rises to the top
What good is a saying
From here to the ear STOP

Has time come for you to run
No place to hide?
Nerves come undone

Understand the bird-in-hand
Wouldn’t have died
If she didn’t land

Making haste ain’t making waste
Wont subside
No taste for paste

Toward sunset with no regret
Been a great ride
That I’ll never forget

LYRICS
Just like that
Snatched away
No way?
Do say…
Imagine that
Starting to fray
No way?
Do say…

A golden opportunity
Is coming your way
Acquired immunity
Welcoming pay day
(Welcome in!)

Just like that
You’ e got it back
OK! Do say…
Imagine that
Picked-up slack
No way?
OK!

Just like that
You’re giving away
No way?
Do say…
Imagine that
Made from clay
No way?
Do say…

Just like that
Could be gone
No way
I pray
Imagine that
Right or wrong
Someday…
I’ll lay

LYRICS
Ride with the tide
Who knows…
Whichever way the wind blows?
Rise on arise
Time flows
On the space continuum
… I am
At the mercy of forces
Far beyond me
I see
There’s much more to the virtue
Of “be”
Is the alignment true
Truly true in me
Ahhh…. the virtue in you
Alignment true?

Roll towards the goal
Take control
Avoid the blackhole
Eyes on the prize
Time bends
Around the gravity of me
Vibe sends
Time curves
Nerves converge
Energy conserves

A Rough Mix — Buttercup.mp3

LYRICS
So…
… long to what is was
If was really is
If it happened so long ago
As to be was
Then, maybe it no longer is
… or never was?
Ya, know?
So, so long was
That is what’s up
Heads-up, Buttercup
Before we pass into the past
Let’s find some future… at last
Come on, Buttercup
Shake-it-up

ABOUT THE SONG
A hypnotic redneck ditty dance with lyrics that dumbfound.

LYRICS
Name calling naming
Finger pointing blaming
Self-incriminating
Evidence is damning
worthless shaming
Hate abandoning timing

The call went out around the world
And everybody heard
For evidence that’s granite
Solid rock understand it
For evidence that’s granted
We all live on one planet

Civil responsibility
Please don’t abandon me
Together make reality
A place that we want to be
Take my hand… come let’s “we”
Humans in humanity
One planet
Plan it?
Plan it
Planet planted

Please listen to this
“Merry Christmas!”
Here’s wishing you a very merry Christmas
Clearly, a very merry Christmas
Winter solstice bliss

Hold dearly this very merry Christmas

So, you know…
When we witness the Lord sow snow
See a glimpse of beauty
Ohhhh…
Snow
Turn the dark to bright
Absorb the sound
Reflect the light
Peace is found
Clinging tight
So, Lord, sow snow!
Ohhh….

Looking back at my track
Into the virgin snow I go
So, Lord, sow snow
Ohhh…

Let the crystals flow
Ohhh…

LYRICS
Do you mean
We’re (fighting) on the same team
Fighting death
To the death
What do you say
Come out and play
Today
The game in the garden
Separate(s) boys from men

The more you age
Haste to the stage
Committal service
Fighting death
To the death
As you grow old
Wisdom be told
The dying are nervous
Fighting death
To the death

From the heart sung
Forever young

LYRICS
Talking about the obscure
Makes my mind want more
Grab the cat-astrophe by the tail

Non-ordered system
Chaos at the stem
Overhead view of the hurricane’s eye
Then I get “why”

Moving toward conclusion
Fact, fiction or illusion
Fall into enthrall of logical
I believe you found your call

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In an era of hate, greed and crime
Maybe it’s time
To step out-of-line
Don’t hesitate to step up to the plate
And hit it out of the park
Shift the gear to out-of-here
Let ‘er rip!
Then, you know
Let it go
Watch it fly
Say “bye-bye”

IN the age of mad, sad and rage
Set the stage
To turn the page
Don’t procrastinate to participate
To calmer “sees” embark
Set sail to a fairy tale
Take a trip
Then, you know
Let us go
Watch us fly
Say “bye-bye”

LYRICS
Fly
On the windshield
I want to try to fly?
Fly
On the windshield
And just like that
Splat!
Fly on the windshield

Fly
Hope I can fly
Before
The windshield
’cause the windshield
Just won’t yield
And just like that
Splat!

They say I may become bug spray
Better stay out of the way
Don’t be the windshield
Know what I mean?
Don’t be the windscreen
They say I may become buy spray some day

Feeling a little dreamy
The vision’s streaming
With a colored coating
Mental that is creamy
Why
I can fly
In black and white
Try to sigh
But nothing comes out
(What’s that about?)
Why
If I try
It’ll all be alright

Dear,
Commandeer
This dream
Take the stream
Turn the fluid
Lucid
Eyelid
Open or closed
I suppose
I did
Lucid

Welcome to the dream
What color is your team?
Dreaming in black and white
We’ll all be alright
