LYRICS
Bring on the lover
Forget the hater
Bring on the lover
No procrastinator

The light will hover
Over you

Smile on your neighbor
Like the creator
Smile on you neighbor
Be something greater

The light will hover
Over you

No collaborator
Of shady character
An elaborator
Of the grandeur

The light will hover
Over you

Welcome to the Land of Wonders.mp3

LYRICS
Welcome to the land of wonders
An experiment in Man’s blunders
Accumulation with the culmination
Man-made self-annihilation

Where fact is stranger than fiction
We’re humans fixed on eradication

Pollution’s fogging up the sky
Never bothering to even ask, “Why”
Pollution’s fouling the waterfowl
We shrug our shoulders and say, “Oh, well.”

Where fact is stranger than fiction
We’re humans fixed on eradication

The natural order we re-arrange
Resulting in human induced climate change
Ice is melting. Sea level is rising.
You’d think by now we’d be realizing

Where fact is stranger than fiction
We’re humans fixed on eradication

LYRICS
Do you remember
All those years ago
When you wondered
About the wonders
Of the world

Go swinging on the monkey bars
Dream up things and shoot for the stars
The days when we’d climb trees
Dream of days when we’d look back at these

Chorus

Go swimming on hot summer days
Play you guitar and try to amaze
Make paper airplanes fly with the breeze
Dream of days when we’d look back on these

We’re finally coming out of the dark
Headed to a brand new start

The next age coming at us fast
New levels of love to surpass

LYRICS
If you go out of the house today
You better not go alone
If you go out of the house today
You’re better off staying at home

The last minute shoppers will run all over you
They’ll walk all over you, too
Then, instead of your Christmas being white… it’ll be blue
Last minute shoppers
Make us into circle hoppers
Got to jump through hoops
They shop, shop, shop until they drop
The last minute shoppers run all over
What are you going to do?

LYRICS
It feels as though we’re light years away

You’d think in this day
In this day and age
We’d be able to turn the page
To a new day
We’d be able to find a way

It feels as though we’re light years away

If indeed we are a civil civilization
We better have the realization
To have some humane in our humanity
If we’re civil in our civility
We might stand a chance
But, it feels as though we’re light years away

So we better think quick
And, build a spaceship
So there’s enough space
For all this bullshit
’cause we can find a way
In this day and age
We can turn the page
Find a better way
For a better day
We can move through light years today

Or, would that be yesterday or tomorrow?
Past, present and future
We can endure

Every day when I rise
I give praise
For giving me these days
So fortunate

And, I get it
Giving me the strength
Giving me the wisdom
Giving me the days
Length and then some
How fortunate I am
And, I know it

I’m fortunate
And, I really get it

Thank you, Lord, for giving me these days
How fortunate

In the middle
In the middle of it
Whether you are within
Or, the outer skin

From out here
You’re in the middle of it
From out here
You’re all in the middle of it

From outside
From way back here
It looks like you’re in the middle of it
If you take a different perspective
A different look
It will appear
You’re in the middle of it

If you want to call it a habit
’cause it’s something you can’t quit
As long as you’re under the atmosphere
And above the ground (by at least 6 feet)
Then the chances are thick
You’re in the middle of it

LYRICS
If we all stand and dance
We might all stand a chance

You might think you can sit in your seat
And, dance
Well, if you do
And, you can sit and through a fit
That’s you
But, if we all stand and dance
We might stand a chance

As the times get tougher and tougher and rougher and rougher
You might even call it ugly
There’s a light you can see
Come with me
And, make me we
We’ll dance
Because if we all stand and dance
We might stand a chance

Dance is a spiritual romance
It can take us higher
Love is in the dance
There’s romance in the dance
If we all stand and dance
We might stand a chance

We can get together with our energy
And, you and me become we

We’ve only got so much time on this Earth
From when you’re dead
Back to the time of your birth
If you want to make those days pay
And, be on your merry way
If we all stand and dance
We might all stand a chance

What do you say we pick this up a little bit maestro?

As you are going through your day-to-day
Are you having fun along the way?

If you’re feeling miserable and mean
I’m hoping I can help you come clean
If you’re having trouble all the time
Hoping that you get to find a rhyme
That will help you on your merry way
Be on your merry way

I confess the world is a mess
Come on
Join the slugfest

We can do our best
To take the high road
We can do our best
To lighten the load

Come on
Join the slugfest

Might as well join the slugfest
The world is a mess
We can do our best
To take it to a better place
To make it a better place…
Before we eclipse our race

If you’re able please keep pace
Well, we gotta win this race
It’s more like a relay
Than an individual event
So, we need that spirit
We need to be a team
If we’re gonna glean
The winner’s circle
If we’re gonna be
On the podium
Gotta be the best I can
Gotta be the best I am

The best I.M. (individual medley)

Come join in the slugfest
We can make it the best
Once we think of it
A soul mosh pit
Join in the slugfest
We’ll do our best
To reach a crest
Through the trough
