LYRICS
Come with me on a trip to 333
A time and place where 2/3 is the other half
Join with me as virtual turns into reality
Avoid the hex of 666

Be born again with a new twist
Rising above with unclenched fist
Be born again with a new twist
Reverse the order of the first-last list

Chorus

New age begin… known as Just
Unveil paradise betwixt the mist
New age begin… known as Just
Like the stars shine and the dead from the dust

Chorus

Be born again with a new twist
Rising above with unclenched fist
Be born again with a new twist
Reverse the order of the first-last list

The twist of the age with no age
Hmm… will there be need for a sage
The twist of the age with no age
Will the shaman get the hook from the stage

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — C A
A G A G A D A
C A

1-track live stereo recordings made in the USA (West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States of America.)

The song is about 666 and the mark of the beast as it relates to repeating decimals.  That is to say 2/3 written as a decimal is .666. Those that are part of the two-thirds will not be born again… thus, the mark of the beast. Those that are part of the .333 may be “the people of God — shall shine as brightly as the sun’s brilliance, and those who turn many to righteousness will glitter like stars forever.” (Daniel 12: 3-4)

However, the immortality of “forever” may eventually be seen as a curse for insisting on divine intervention (due to our destruction of the planet.) Whenever humans insist on divine intervention, there are consequences. For instance, when Eve ate the apple — “condemning the man to sustain life through hard labor and the woman to create new life through painful childbirth.”

What if the consequence the .333  pay for the actions of the .666 is immortality — never to be born again? What good will a sage or shaman be then?

LYRICS
There may be more here than meets the eye
Certainly more here than me and I

Setting our sights for the sky
Going to go high, high, high

Scratch the surface and see what you get
No one is useless… you can place that bet

Living like you’re never going to die
Go ahead try, try, try

Live it like you’re never going to die
Go ahead try, try, try

There may be more here than meets the eye
Way more here than me and I
If you want to touch the sky
Set your sights and set ’em high

Living like you’re never going to die
Go ahead try, try, try

LYRICS
There’s a love that I know
It’s starting to grow
There’s a love that I grow
Lord, please let it show

I’ve been racking my brain
Over your sweet refrain
Gonna drive me insane
If it goes inane

Chorus

I’ve been tracing my thought
Over why and why not
Should the battle be fought
Live, liberty, happiness is a lot

LYRICS
Here comes one walkin’ the dog
There’s one struttin’ outta the fog
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle a little bit
But, but, but, but, but, butt

People to the left
Talkin’bout black
People to the right
Talkin’bout white
Are people deft
On the attack
In spite of spite
Move to all right, alright?!?!

From the feet up the leg
Or, the head down the back
For more n’ more n’ more I beg
You know I love. A natural fact

People to the left
Talkin’bout black
People to the right
Talkin’bout white
From the feet up the leg
Or, the head down the back
We meet at the butt, but…
Sorry, I didn’t mean to make an ass of myself

Chords — Capo 2
Em walked down from top

A 1-track stereo recording made in the USA (West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States of America.)

The song was inspired while sitting on the wall of the Courthouse and writing music. A couple young black “rappers” came and sat next to me on my left. Then, a white “cowboy” came and stood to my right. While I played the guitar, they started rapping back and forth at/with each other; however, despite our differences, we all agreed about the anatomy of the females that were walking by.

Come on, come on, come on
The bands already on stage
Time to, time to, time to
Let the animals outta their cage

Chorus
We’re going to a party tonight
So far, the day’s been outta sight
We’re talkin’ more than alright
In fact, it’s been a party all day
Wouldn’t cha, wouldn’t cha, wouldn’t cha say

Come on, come on, come on
Like children let us engage
No time to, no time to, no time to
Start acting your age

Chorus

Somehow, somehow, somehow
This is totally nuts right now
Anyhow, anyhow, anyhow
I’m speechless… like wow

ABOUT THE SONG

A 1-track stereo recording made in the USA (Ambler, Montgomery County and West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States of America.)

The song was inspired by a new friend, Adam. He heard me writing the music to this song while playing acoustic guitar on the streets of Ambler, PA. First, he just stood there in awe. I stopped playing and introduced myself. He got on the Internet and checked KingArthur.com. That’s when Adam said, “This is totally nuts right now!”

LYRICS
Where do you find beauty?
Is it in your comfort?
If you seek you must confront,
The demons in your body

Chorus
What the heck…
I see it in the crape of your neck
Down the small of your back
… and back
Are you sensitive behind your knee
… let’s see
Can I find your soul
In your sole?

Bathing in the light
Basking at the sight
How do I find beauty
Let me count the ways
With this view that I see
We could be here for days

LYRICS
I’m coming at you
%$#* the vengeance
I’m coming at you with repentance

Sure, someday you’ll pay
But, it doesn’t have to be my way
I’m more than happy

The future’s your own destiny
It’s not up to me
Choose your own destiny

I’m coming at you
%$#* the vengeance
I’m coming at you with repentance

There’s no need to be defensive
This is all meant for our own good
If we would have just done what we could
Then we wouldn’t be in the dilemma
A little more Dalai Lama
A little less crusade
Would bring the aid

I’m coming after you
%$#* the vengeance
I’m coming after you with repentance

Every life comes to an end
Will your soul ascend…
On Judgement Day
When justice comes your way

I’m coming after you
There’s not much you can do
I’m diligent
Not violent
Gotta get the repentance through

Oncoming Traffic.mp3

LYRICS
If your ball should roll out onto the road
Before you run out, watch for the oncoming load

When you run out into traffic
It could end up tragic
Not the story you want told
“Tragic.. died before he was old.”

Wonder who built the roads anyway?
Now they just seem in the way
Of our progress in being a civilized civilization
On that superhighway of life
A bug’s life is strife
Being shattered on the windshield
’cause that oncoming load would not yield

My life became a mess
My innards on the interstate

Stop. Look. And, listen.

Before you run out on the road, look out for that oncoming load

Oh, %^&*!
Here comes a truck
Do you know if I can duck?

With a giant leap of faith we can overcome that oncoming freight

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Prelude (recorded in the soundcheck)
What if I’ve just been the victim of the world’s greatest con
What if I’m just a victim of everything that’s gone wrong
And, we all bleed
When one of us is bleeding, we concede to bleed.

The Song
Have I just been the victim of the world’s greatest con?
All these people and politicians tell me nothing’s gone wrong?
That’s the wrong song!

Try to convince me
We’re not responsible?
Yes, you try to convince me
That we’re not responsible?
That’s most irresponsible

We’re responsible for all this trash
We’re responsible for all this mess
We’re responsible for all pollution
We’re responsible for institution
De-civilization

Maybe it’s time
We woke up and smell the coffee
Can you smell the coffee
Or, is it just me?

We’ve all got something wrong going on
Well, folks…
Look behind that curtain
It’s a hoax
The Wizard is you
Now, what’cha gonna do?

Have we just victimized ourselves of the greatest con
It’s all around
How it went wrong is now in song

Is it just me or do we have to take responsibility?

And We All Bleed.mp3

Relevant
As an elephant
In a China shop
Now, drop

It’s time to be big
Big… bigger than this
Bigger than this
A luscious kiss
Able to transcend
Again and again

Time to get relevant
Like an elephant in a China shop
Now, drop

Relevant

Like an elephant in a China shop
Now, drop
Irreverent in a reverent way
Instead of gone astray
We can band together
As a band
Not, necessarily hand-in-hand
(Staying unique)

Coming relevant
Like an elephant
In a China shop
Now, drop!
