Posted on by admin

LYRICS
She spent the money
You know she spent the money

So, she could hire an esquire
To acquire what the children desire to aspire

She spent the money
You know she spent the money

Way less than being funny
More akin to a pitiful soul, Honey

She spent the money
You know she spent the money

Instead of getting baby new shoes
She went to the spa and got hairdos

She spent the money
You know she spent the money

When it was time for the kids to be fed
When it was time for the kids to be bed
When it was time for the kids further Ed.
She misled with all she did and said

Going on a fancy vacation
By robbing the kids’ fund for education
Riding in a fancy automobile
Acting like a real big deal
At the expense of your offspring?
Heaven only knows what that will bring

LYRICS
We’re heading on the path to the light
The end of the tunnel. The End of the might
We’re heading toward the might

Chorus
We’ve got stuff to prove
Let’s get on the move
We’ve got all to lose
In the grove we’ll cruise

We’re heading on the path to alright
The start of the rumble… the noise on the height
We’re going to see the sight
Where windows open. Let in the light

LYRICS
Maybe if we all just give a little
Wouldn’t ya know we can watch it grow
Maybe if we move from the middle
Head toward the light and watch it glow

Watch it sprout and bloom about
Feel the nurture of our nature
Watch it spread beyond your head
Transcend stature… mature blur

Maybe if we all give just a lil’ bit
Wouldn’t ya know we can watch it flow
Maybe if we try to keep the light lit
We’ll all finally be in the know

To the politicians, they grease his palm
Whose the one to say?
The choir sings the hypocrite psalm

Well, we’re here for you to hear today
That we are! We’re the ones to say

Incorporation, cooperation neglect
Whose the one to say?
Evolution of pollution, climate change effect

LYRICS
The words for the verse are crucial
And, I’m trying to figure it out

The chords for the chorus… revolution
And, I’m trying to hammer it out

Please let what they sing ring
Throughout the land
Please let what they play say
We understand

No need to rehearse. This crucible
Is sure to fire things up
The power of love is critical
The volume it’s time to turn up

LYRICS
You might get more than you bargained for
If you try to open it up
Pandora’s box is nothing
Compared to what’s in store

Once you open the door
The genie is out for sure
Just try to begin
To get her back in

Posted on by admin

PART 1
In the solidarity of your solitude
Will you find
More than rhyme
In the solidarity of your solitude
Will it come back
You were just a little too rude

Will you blame it on the moon
Will you say your time came too soon
Can you say your time came too soon

Solidarity Of Your Solitude Part 1.mp3

PART 2
In the solidarity of your solitude
If you lock yourself in a closet
In some sort of insane, crazy bet
That you’ve come to regret
It’s not to hard to open the door

Turns out your solitude
Has nothing to do with being rude
This question.. this inquisition
You must ask yourself
That it was never your intention to be rude
Then you should move on and begin
Just like you know you could
Don’t let them get you down
You’ve got to keep on keeping on
’cause there’s people like me
That are glad you’re around

LYRICS
Going, going, going to extremes

One minute it’s hot
The next it’s not

Going, going, going to extremes

One day it snows
The next… who knows

Going, going, going to extremes

It’s not whether there’s gonna be weather
It’s whether we’ll weather the weather

Going, going, going to extremes

After floods dry out
No doubt a drought

Going, going, going to extremes

What do you know
There goes a tornado

Going, going, going to extremes

Some sort of insane
Hurricane

Going, going, going to extremes

Hell, is that hail?
My head’s too frail

Pretty soon a foreign typhoon
Rain of monsoon

Going, going, going to extremes

The answer’s blowin’ in the wind

LYRICS
The blue and red are flashing
Once again, the boar is at war
Some sort-of authority
Knowing what’s best for you and me

Chorus
With some militant might
God told ’em what’s right
When done with their theft
There’ll be nothing left

The have’s and not’s are clashing
Once again, the hog exploits the cog
Some sort-of authority
Knows what’s best for you and me

Chorus

All the glass ceilings smashing
New happening… the pig ain’t so big
No sort-of authority
Knows what’s best for you and me

LYRICS
It sucks when you’re living in a swamp
Yet, it seems that’s what we want
When confronted with the taste of our waste
We throw a fit over our own shit
And cry, and rant, and stomp

More coal and oil until we spoil
Yes, it seems that’s what we want
When confronted with the wast of our taste
We recoil and start to boil

Blowin’ methane and monoxides sky high
Patience of the temperate… we try

Sucks livin’ in a swamp

Are we really this close
Yet really that far?
Oh, yes, oh, yes… we really are

The emperor’s new clothes
Seeing things bizarre
Oh, yes, oh, yes… they really are

Experiencing the house of mirrors
Exposing your inner terrors
Going major from the minors
Growing de jour toward grandeur

LYRICS
My favorite star
You shine like the sun
Though nearest… yet so far
You are the same and one

We know without you we can’t grow
Though trite… you are The Light
The fusion of your engine… we can only imagine

No matter seed or womb
We start and end in a tomb
While in between
You sprout out “green”
Then, you bloom
