bookmark_border21st Century Man

LYRICS
It’s a total mystery
How this could be the twenty-first century
(Surely?)
War and all its gore
One would think
Would have learned before

It’s a total mystery
How this could be the twenty-first century
(Surely?)
Plague in stages
Like living in the middle ages

It’s a total mystery
How this could be the twenty-first century
(Surely?)
There’s no solution
To living in our pollution

No civil in civilization
No humane in human
… no, no humane left in the human

Odyn Vyd Lyudyny
LYRICS
There is only one kind of man
I know
Mankind
What kind of would kill
Mankind?
I know
One-of-a-kind
Out of his mind
Once again
I find myself preachin’
Homo sapien
You have what you’ve been seekin’
God spoke:
Ya’ll woke?
Of my complaints are these:
Unto others, you spread disease
Spewing crap upon your habitat
And if that,
Were not enough…
Already rough
Vladimir did appear

Matthew 24:4-8
Jesus said, “Watch out for doomsday deceivers. Many leaders are going to show up with forged identities, claiming, ‘I am Christ, the Messiah.’ They will deceive a lot of people. When reports come in of wars and rumored wars, keep your head and don’t panic. This is routine history; this is no sign of the end. Nation will fight nation and ruler fight ruler, over and over. Famines and earthquakes will occur in various places. This is nothing compared to what is coming.

Whether weather
Will impact me
Forecast says
We’re about to see
Nor’ Easter
On the coast

Gets to boast
Kickin’ keister
Taking names
One things for sure
Not playing games

Whether weather
Will be extreme

So it seems

I mean extreme

LYRICS
Will the temperature
Grow a little too cold
A little too cold
Before we grow old
Old man winter’s
Days are numbered
He flew south
To get some sun
Eldest son
Sacrifice to ice
Days are done
Souls entice
Thawed vice

One things for sure
Temperature’s rising
The devil’s allure
Not so surprising
Nature’s splintered
Days are numb-er
Stole her wealth
To get sum sun
Eldest son
Sacrifice to ice
Days are done
Souls entice
Thawed vice

Mainly humane
Remain humane

A brisk winter’s day
Breath of peppermint
Life is on its way
Human experiment
Where intelligent life is meant

Warmer by the day
Change is what is meant

LYRICS
I heard the report
Day late and dollar short
Forgot to deal with the trash
Now there’s nowhere to stash
In case it’s not crystal clear
There’s no moving way from here
The solution to pollution
Is in the humane of the human

I heard the report
Breath as a last resort
Beasts have fouled the air
Don’t inhale out there
In case it’s not crystal clear
There’s no moving way from here
The solution to pollution
Is in the humane of the human

I heard the report
The ball is in our court
Not too late to confess
And clean up the mess
In case it’s not crystal clear
There’s no moving way from here
The solution to pollution
Is in the humane of the human

LYRICS
Please stop the world
From going round
I’d like to get off
’til common sense is found
There’s a firesale
On old growth timber
The odds we’ll sustain
Are growing slimmer
Will we ever learn
We get what we earn
Given — you were born
Until the time we mourn
Make it what we will
Make it while there’s still

Please stop the world
From going round
I’d like to get off
’til common sense is found
There’s a firesale
On old growth timber
The odds we’ll sustain
Are growing slimmer
Pooping in our drinking water
Sacrificing both son and daughter
Will we ever learn
We get what we earn
Given — you were born
Until the time we mourn
Make it what we will
Make it while there’s still

Please stop the world

Like nothing we’ve seen before?

Get up and go
While the getting is good
If you don’t know
You probably should

And the waves are moving
Perhaps it’s a clue

And the trees are falling
Perhaps it’s a clue
Before we do, too?

Eat meat or no pudding

Ignore it while we’re aging

Do you know if there’s a place I can go
To cure what ails me
It’s called “your destiny”
Perils of your destiny

You bet the farm
Doing no harm?
Lord, cure what ails me
It’s called “your destiny”

When it comes to the plant

You said, “Damn it! God damn it!”
“F” the habitat
What do you think of that
Live with it!

Live with it? I hope not to die…

Put an end to blight

Thinks there’s no harm in it
Leave it to government
Their/they’re too late to solve it

You’ll find it in you

Fat cat politicians
Poor savior magicians
It’s their positions
Requiring morticians
We’re all in need

Hear the earth plead
You’ll find it in you

She’ll put up a fight
Till we get things right
Put an end to blight
She puts up a fight
If we could all transfer more of her
