LYRICS
Pop polka dot

Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini
It’s tiny
Itsy bitsy
Pop polka dot
Not

You’ve gotta dot your i’s and cross your t’s
Especially
If you’re at the bottom of the bin
Again and again and again

Pop polka dot

Especially
If you’re varmint kin
Again and again and again

It’s tiny
It might seem miniscule
to you all
but to us
it’s worth puttin’ up the fuss
Yeah, put up the fuss

Pop polka dot

It’s the Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini

I ask why
You say why not

The dream is not?
Why not…
You might as well be drooling in snot
That’s why not

And, then just when you think you can do it again
You find out not
You’re just a pop polka dot
Not
Dot
Pop polka dot

LYRICS
Do you grasp the price we’ll pay
Continuing to carry on this way
Reeking and reaping our dismay
Deaf to what the Lord does say

At our fingertips lay
The script for the Passion Play

Does your wrath clog your sight
Lighten up. It’ll get bright
Join in the festival of lights
Eight days and eight nights

Perhaps on this day
We’ll hear God pray

Repeat First Verse

A little holiday ditty for Christians that forget they are also Jews… and therefore, Muslims that forget that they are Christians that are Jews. A holiday song for religions of The Book… Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and As-salamu.

LYRICS
Is it any wonder that wisdom is wise
Just opened my eyes to realize

There’s no surprise
Wisdom is wise
Not a faker
Wiseacre
A wise acre
43560 square feet
Presented as an enlightenment feat

Be the kind to fertilize your mind
Let your imagination go
And, the seeds of genius grow

The roots of your soul
Flow from your furrow
Plant the seeds for tomorrow
A wise acre goal

LYRICS
Riding and flying on the back of Pegasus
A winged divine stallion is going to save us

It’s time for the back-up plan
To start kickin’-in
It’s time the hue of human
Starts givin’ in / believin’ in / glowin’ agin’

Sired by Poseidon… foaled by Medusa
Divine as God’s son, Muhammad, Buddah

Chorus

Maybe a unicorn will save us with it’s horn
Or, a leprechaun will save us all from harm

Junglized
Realized I’ve been junglized
When I first realized I was junglized
I was surprised

Instead of seeing through rose (colored) glasses
I realized we were just making ourselves into asses
We were looking through jungle eyes
We’ve lost clarity of humanity
Junglized
Jungle eyes

Have you realized
We’ve been junglized
Looking at the world through jungle eyes

Ohh, I thought I heard her say
She wants Santa to come this way
Ohh glorious us
Bless Christmas Day

Ohh, she’s God’s gift to the world
She’s what makes the pearly gates pearled
You’ll be answered if you pray
Bless Christmas Day

Ohh, she’s got God’s good grace
Angel written all over her face
Hallelujah, ya!
The Lord formed man as of clay

LYRICS
The funny thing
He never called himself king
The Prince Of Peace
To say the least

I’m going to Bethlehem
I am
I’m going to Bethlehem
To behold him

Hey, hey, hey, ya!
In Judea
Joseph went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee
So, the angels could sing and dance merrily

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly
Appearing with the angels, praising God and singing,
Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth may peace never cease

LYRICS
What are the people doing
Does it have you stewing
A body without a head
As the headless tread

Chorus
Hey, ostrich
Get my head out of the sand
Not a stretch
To understand
An anthropology apology
For not being too smart
From the bottom of a heartless heart

What are the people doing
Does it have you brooding
A body without a brain
Flushing civilization down the drain

Chorus

What are the people doing
Does it have you crying
A body without a heart
Tearing the whole world apart

bookmark_borderProtesting The Protest Song

LYRICS
Can I attest I protest your protest
Because your protest is lame
Have you gone insane?
This protest is lame

Even if it’s just me that thinks they can see
That this protest needs protesting
And, in and of itself this is interesting
There still needs to be more… more protesting
More sanity, clarity in what it is we want to be
What it is we want to be

It’s time I’m
Going to protest this protest
(Unless we can get it together)

If we don’t stand up and protest this lame protest
We’ll only become less and less… and less and less
Unless we protest this protest

Unless we rise
Unless we realize
Rise
We’ve got to protest this protest
Test the protest
Unless we become less and less

It’s not so much a matter of whether…
We need not confess
It’s much more a matter of whether we become less and less
Unless we protest this protest
Or, become less and less

Here comes the interesting part
… it’s all about you
Do, de, do, de, do-do

LYRICS
Perhaps some sort-of bumble going on in the jungle
When I looked at the end of my arm
I could see a mirror looking back at me
Ohhh, I think I get it
The conspiracy is me

A conspiracy of me
Ohhh, yeah… I’m starting to see
The conspiracy is me
The conspiracy in me
What the difference between you and me
And we
If you’re talking about the conspiracy in me

Album notes for the yet to be completed concept album… haa… sorry, I mumble about the bungle of The Jungle.

Look up to the sky… please tell me
It’s a mumble
Why’d we bungle the jungle?

oh you ask oh why they foul the sky
they mumble why they fouled the jungle
look up to the sky
what do you see
please tell me

It’s a mumble why the bungle of the jungle
You mumble why you bumble the jungle?

—-

The bungle
The jungle
When I ask people why you foul the sky
’cause I wonder why
It’s just a mumble
Why bungle the jungle
When you look into the sky
Does it make you want to cry
Does it make you wonder why

When I was why
When you ask why
When we ask why
There’s a stumble on the words
A mumble of words
Why the bungled jungle
Destruction
From your construction
Of your mumbled bumbled ways

Twhat did you say
I C’nt hear you
