LYRICS
One plus one still equals two
There’s not much you can do
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more

Two plus two still equals four
It’s not a but, if or or
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more

If four plus four equals eight
Maybe it’s not two too late
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more

’cause you know that in The End
Five plus five still equals ten
Might as well even the score
Even… if nothing more

LYRICS
Go back to start
To find your heart
Gather your head
And move ahead
Pick up a piece of peace
Live up life’s second lease

A day is found above ground
Open eyes look around

Start jumping for joy
Take a breath… enjoy
I realize
Life’s my prize
Pick up a piece of peace
Live up life’s second lease

A day is found above ground
Open eyes look around

LYRICS
Wield that cleaver
Going to be a butcher
Yield? Not ever
Going to hell for sure
And the blood flows like a river
Peace annihilation will deliver

Swing battle axe
No reason based on facts
Bring your carcass
Along to share with us?
And the blood flows like a river
Peace annihilation will deliver

Shoot poison darts
Great for stopping hearts
Loot, pilfer, rape
Who’s the greatest ape?
And the blood flows like a river
Peace annihilation will deliver

Almost blown away
When the wind blows this way
A powerful gust
To Kansas or bust

As a matter of fact
Better hold onto my hat

Try as you might
Can’t fly a kite
Wind will break your string
Sending that thing flying

As a matter of fact
Better hold onto my hat

As you slip into your new birthday suit

Slipping into a new birthday suit

When you transcend
After “The End

Your boundaries bend
When you transcend

Not sure
No, I’m not sure
I’m not sure what I’m going to do
I’m looking to you
I’m not sure what we’re going to do
How about you?

I’ve been looking around at what we’ve done
How can this battle be won?
We took on the sun
We took on the Earth
We tried to eliminate birth

What’s been done can’t be undone
I’m done
Undone

Change of the definition
You thought that was fun
Enjoy done under the sun

Come on people
We are the steeple
You’ve got your day under the sun
What can be done?

LYRICS
Just sitting here minding my business
Grabbed by paranoid paralysis
Officer give me the remedy
To society’s tragedy

Now you’ve crossed into my zone
Why don’t you just leave me alone

One of the things I most dread
Is growing eyes on the back of my head
Why not take a real deep breath
Before you’re the cause of your own death

Now you’ve crossed into my zone
Why don’t you just leave me alone

LYRICS
Awoke from a slumber
A little bit dumber
A nightmarish dream
Where I turn obscene

How am I suppose to get any sleep
With this racket going on
Turns me into a creep
When this racket’s going on
How am I suppose to get any peace
With this racket going on
Gonna force you to cease
This racket that’s going on

To create a buzz
No reason… just ’cause
That’s what dumb does

LYRICS
Wouldn’t ya say we resemble
How to peacefully assemble
Writing songs about freedom
Redress of grievances from the free dumb

Chorus
I had to tell the Po-po No! No!
Ya know, he didn’t know
Gay Church… Church and Gay
Bring your guitar and learn how to play

Perhaps you should dot your i’s and maybe cross your t’s
Before you confront me
Please don’t tread on me

Just because you’re walled-in
Doesn’t mean we gotta stop talkin’
While your face is turning green
The writing on the wall will be seen

LYRICS
Tag! Now, you’re it
You’re it and you can’t quit

From the early, early, dawn
’til you start to yawn
From the early, early mornin’
The first crack of light
To the darkest depths
In the middle of the night

Stay and play away
This ain’t got nothing to do with money
You can’t come up until you do something funny

Knock, knock
Who’s there?
Heaven’s door
Heaven’s door, who?
Heaven’s door
Should have come up with more for sure
Who knew?
