LYRICS
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7… all good children go to heaven
At 8… through the pearly gate
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 through the pearly gate
Next 9, just in time
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. 8. 9 then 10… they (you) get to do it again

Chorus
Reincarnation celebration
Coming to a lifetime in you
Reincarnation celebration
Truly transparent view

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 do you think you’ll be forgiven?
Or, 8… too late?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8… pray I don’t come back as fish bait
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9… pray I have a spine
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10… may I be a being again

LYRICS
If you want to see the vigor in me
Step a little closer and see what you see
If you want to see victory in “we”
Get off your high horse… come down from your tree

Chorus
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you
And, I really wonder what you’re up to
There use to be a place we could meet
Any more, I’m not sure if there’s a seat

If you want to see the real me
Take a closer look — intimacy
If you want to see the victorious us
Head right on course… get in focus

Chorus

From the womb to the tomb
Gonna live it the fullest… that I am!
From the bomb to the boom
Gonna let my soul, self, spirit scream

LYRICS
Despite what you might have thought was insight
The consensus — might doesn’t make right
Try as you may… try as you might
In the end, it’s you that you slight

Chorus
In everything that you do
Try to pull through
’till the skies are blue
You can always depend on me to pull through
… can I depend on you?

In spite of the nose on your face
The mucus — blight clogging your sight
Cut it off so you can deface
Come on… don’t try to swallow more than you can bite

Chorus

So, you cut of your nose to spite your face
Why not cut off your ear… ya know… Van Gogh?
So, you put off your mate to curse your fate
Crawl into the light out of your dark space

LYRICS
What do you think happened to your brain
To make you behave so strange
Is it in your genes… you’re mean… you strain
Turned into nails on the blackboard… people cringe

Is there hope you can be saved
Before you reach your grave
Is there a chance you’re less enraged
Relief from how you behave?

Chorus

What do you think happened to your heart
When it comes to unconditional love… you forgot
Over time your goodness did depart
Then, you left those you love to rot

LYRICS
Happy emancipation to you
Gonna make a proclamation or two
Justification avenue
Coming to a city within view

Always too early to begin
Telling lies, hatred and sin
It’s never too late to begin
Feeling young inside again

Chorus

It’s always too early to begin
Stealin’, robbin’, rapin’ and hatin’
It’s never too late to begin
Beloving the living of lovin’

LYRICS
Funny how one thing leads to another
Before you know it… it’s a chain reaction
Honey draws the flies more than vinegar
Suppose the choice lies in your selection

Chorus
Do you wonder how the other half lives
You might be surprised how much they give
Do you wonder, “What is my purpose?”
Is it more tan to be you, 2, 3, 4… for all of us

Sunny one minute cloudy the next
Before you know it… it’s a climate action
Money draws the lies out of context
Impose their will as some sort-of fiction

Chorus

Bunny goes from hunted to hunter
Who’s gonna die… who’s gonna live
The problem is not that perplexed
We will cause our own extinction

LYRICS
Off the frying pan and into the fire
(Transpire)
Ouch!

Mary had a little lamb and tied it to a heater
Every time it turned around
It burned it’s little seater

Sitting on a hot plate
Sitting on the stove
Temperature is temperate
What about the love?

Chorus

The climate change
Man has induced
Exponential
Runaway train

Chorus

Could we manage
To reproduce
Expressional love
Just the same

Ouch! Are we insane
Bringing on the pain
Ouch! Do some remain
That want good to re-gain

Ouch!.mp3

The song was inspired by a heat wave during the last week of May. I tried sitting on my usual songwriting wall, but the stone was so hot it burned my rear. If we could only love as good as we pollute?

LYRICS
Let’s get in sync

A jazz experimental ditty
Try to get into some spiritual possibility
In this time, in this day, in this age
When you want to turn the page
And get a way from history
Because that’s not my story
I might be a product of my genes
I might be a product of my environment
I’m not a product of the obscene
I’ve come to appreciated what life means

If you feel like your downtrodden… down beat…
Of the old narrate
If you can’t figure out what the hell you’re doing here
When this is heaven
Well, maybe you haven’t been forgiven
Or, maybe you haven’t been enlightened
It’s not too late

Whenever things get hard…
When you think it’s hard
Of course it might depend on your tissue
Your issue
’cause you could be soft inside
The hardened shell is your own hell

It could be just as well
Come out of that shell
With that soft underbelly
Crawl out… it’ll be funny
Come to see
Enlightenment
And, that’s excitement
That’s how you create a thrill
So that people will chill
Create a thrill
And get rid of ill-will

Suffering The Fools Pain.mp3

LYRICS

Hung like a picture on the wall
She grabbed me by the balls
Flung into a den of lions
In front of the hypocrites and liars
In the lair
In the glare
I fell to my knees
Beggin’ please, please, please

I’ve been framed
I’ve been blamed
But, I bare no shame
Smear my name
I’ve been framed
May never be the same
Suffering the fool’s pain

Written and recorded at the Out In The Woods studios in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. At the begging of the track, you can hear Rick asking for the vocals to be sung with a country “squirrel s&#!” style.
