LYRICS
Anticipation
I just can’t wait
Anticipation
Out of the gate
Through hesitation
To penetration
Cease cessation
Seize elation
Coordination
Walking a tight rope
Eternal damnation
Consider the scope
Elevation
Taking it higher
Light. Combustion
We’re on fire

LYRICS
Apply the hammer. Apply the hammer
… with just a dab of finesse
Hit the nail on the head
With success
Apply the hammer. Apply the hammer
… with just a dab of finesse
Put the matter to bed
God bless!
Apply the hammer. Apply the hammer
… with just a dab of finesse
Watch the thumb or dread
A bloody mess
Apply the hammer. Apply the hammer
… with just a dab of finesse
When all is done and said
Marvelous

LYRICS
Excepting those that are dear
Whatever’s happening here
Is not clear
Pull up a seat and tap your feat
To the beat of a rock n’ roll show
Or better off yet why not get
Next to the stage’s glow
Excepting those that are aware
Whatever’s happening there
Is not clear
Chorus
Excepting those in the know
Hoping we’re not to slow
To get up and go

LYRICS
We’ve been a long time at see
Searchin’ for the land of the free
Then, it finally came to me…
In the presence of intelligence
Be
Can you feel the peace
Hear the harmony
Adrenaline release
Near ecstasy
We’ve been a long time at see
Sailin’ from The End to begin
That’s when it came to me
In the presence of the essence
Be
Chorus
We’ve been a long time at see
Wailin’ to God for mercy
Then, much to Her fancy
It came to be

LYRICS
Where do we go from here
Now that we know what we know
Do you fear or hold dear
The blow of the flow?
All of a sudden the vision is crystal clear
Not a burden of mission… more a seers sear
Are we about to find out
Emergency exit only
Are we about to find doubt
Or the spirit holy?
Chorus
Will the tide roll out
Will the tide roll in
Will we scream and shout
Will we hold it in
(It’ll be no surprise
If you burn through with your I’s)

LYRICS
When it comes to opinion
You’re not alone
Asshole per minion
Head fulla bone
Chorus
Long term consequence
Not left up to chance
Long term consequence
Written in stone
An object in motion is in motion
No, you can’t hold the phone
Time your emotion grabs the notion
We’re in a humanity zone
Chorus
When it comes to an option
Why piss and moan?
Worn turn evolution
Butterfly flown

Toss the baby into the air
Wondering if this life is fair
Ohhhh… I do believe I forgot my fudge
Order in the court. Here comes the Judge.
Toss a maybe our of despair
Is a response even there
Ohhhh… you won’t even budge
Order in the court. Here comes the Judge.
Toss a body into my car
Now you took it a lil’ too far
(siren sound)… bring on the badge
Order in the court. Here comes the Judge.

LYRICS
Consequences of…
The impact of your impact
Essence of love
In fact, missing… at a lack
Social responsibility
Civic duty or duty-free?
Your right to rights
Doesn’t make your fight alright
All right?
Alright!
Consequences of…
The impact of your attack
Essence of love
If ever there, come back
All right?
It’s not alright

It kind of helps if you open the door…
Before! Once More! Before!

It will be less hard on your head
If you listen to what I said
It’ll be a much better day
If you’ll just listen to what I say
Cut down on yelps by opening the door…
Before! Once More! Before!
Chorus
It’ll be less savage by taking advantage of the handle…
Less scandal

I hear ya knockin’ but ya can’t come in

LYRICS
I would like to thank you for keeping me good company
A solid body with a slender neck
More than I could ever expect
In spite of my psyche… if I’m a wreck
You talk back with the proper respect
When we’re in tune
We can croon
In sweet, sweet harmony
When held just right
We can play all night
Just like an angelic symphony

LYRICS
Chorus
If you play like you should
You know you’ll be good
If you say that you would
You’ll rock the neighborhood
The people will stand. The people will stare.
Amazed that you are really there
The people will clap. The people will yell.
Oh, yeah! Then, you’ll be able to tell
Chorus
The kids will sing… the children dance
All the can’s can. There’ll be no cant’s
There’s no surprise. The cream will rise.
Come ride the ride of our rising tide
Chorus

LYRICS
If at first you don’t succeed
Persevere … don’t secede
… impede
… choke like a weed
… no more greed
In deed, succeed
… feed, need, heed, lead, seed, creed
We need a union now more
Than ever
Forever our endeavor

LYRICS
It’s on the tip of my tongue
Can’t put my finger on it
Is this some sort-of game
I can’t recall your name
Can’t be some “kind”-of game
’cause this ain’t kind… it’s a shame
Sorry for sounding lame
I can’t recall your name
Though in my heart you’ve fame
Stoking love’s flame
