Where Would We Be?

Posted on July 25, 2012July 27, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Where would we be without the hives and the trees?
Where would we be without the birds and the bees?
What would you do without the innocence of children?
What would you do without the memory of been?

Do you think you’d miss a cool rain’s kiss?
Would you be remiss… speechless?

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 5
A (less C#, add A, add F#)
A / D

Written and recorded on July 24, 2012 at Marsh Creek State Park, Chester County, Pennsylvania. For quite sometime, I have been conducting a study on deforestation of the Earth. While writing the song, I noticed the sun shining through the leaves of the tree… like is was winter time; however, it is summer. Then, a couple of small children walked up to me and said, “Thank you guitar man.” What would the world be like without trees? What would the world be like without the innocence of children?

Something About You

Posted on July 24, 2012July 27, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
’cause there is something about you
that makes me want to sing
’cause there is something about you
that makes me want to dance

The sparkle. The Twinkle. The glimmer in your eye
The uplift of your riff. The glimmer of your I.

’cause there is something about you
that makes me everything
’cause there is something about you
that makes me risk a chance

The sparkle. The Twinkle. The glimmer in your eye
The gift of your lift. The answer to my why.

LYRICS
Did you find what you were looking for
Did you check right there… in your pocket
Did you check right there… before your eyes

Are you blind? What were you looking for?
Did your eyes pop (fall) out of their socket
Now that you’ve heard their lies
Realize?

Fear Not

Posted on July 22, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Are you afraid to open your door
See people hurting like never before
Are you afraid to answer the phone
Hear the moan become a constant drone

Are you afraid to show your face
Tired of being made a public disgrace
Are you afraid to communicate
The wrong way on a one-way
Bombarded with hate, hate, thate

Then, please don’t hesitate
To call on God. Let Her mediate.

The place is here. The time is now.
Believe She’ll hear… She does somehow

God’s good grace. The mercy upon you.
Redeem your scene to heavenly… see!

Why not fear not?

Storm Trooper

Posted on July 22, 2012July 22, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
If you should go out
There is a storm looming about
Be prepared to go under… how close is the thunder?
If you should go out
There is a storm brooding about
About an unrest in the atmosphere

If you should go out
There is a storm’s thunder shout
About to make Her way near
her intention are clear
About to make Her way here

if you should go out
There is a storm looming about
No question who is the mightiest
No question who is the frailest
Not even a test in jest

From Her foreboding i can foresee

ABOUT THE SONG
Am / Dm
Am / Em (add C)

Written at East Goshen Township Park, Chester County, Pennsylvania on July 18, 2012. Unfortunately, the storm came and the music did not get recorded.

Q: How fast does thunder travel?
A: Thunder travels at the speed of sound… approximately 6 seconds / mile.

String Theory

Posted on July 22, 2012July 22, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Here’s the thing about string
In the theory of string
You ought not push
Less knot you furnish

Here’s the thing
If you push on a string
Appear a gluttony lush
With the knot (not) you furnish

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 5
fingered
Am
Am (less C / add D / add G)
Em
Em (add D / add G)

The meaning of the song has to do with the Complete Theory of the Universe. Some consider String Theory to be the complete theory of the universe. A simplistic view would be to imagine everything as a string. What happens when you try to push a string? A more complex way to look at is through a vibration. Can you imagine everything as a vibration? What kind of vibration will you be?

String Theory states that strings propagate through space and time.

“These oscillations exist in discrete vibrational modes, the spectrum of the theory.”

“An analogy for strings’ modes of vibration is a guitar string’s production of multiple but distinct musical notes. In the analogy, different notes correspond to different particles. One difference is the guitar string exists in 3 dimensions, so that there are only two dimensions transverse to the string. Fundamental strings exist in 9 dimensions and the strings can vibrate in any direction, meaning that the spectrum of vibrational modes is much richer.”

Written and recorded July 17, 2012 at Marsh Creek State Park, Chester County, Pennsylvania using a Boss digital 8-track.

Peace

Posted on July 17, 2012July 17, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Have you heard what they did?
Marched her up a pyramid
’till they screamed for more
Split her skin wide open
Exposing blood and gore

Have you heard what they’ve done?
Locked her in a dungeon
Brought the dragon in
Disgracing the glen
With disdain and sin

Have you heard what they do?
Please take upon my peace pipe
Lit with magic stick
and, offer it, offer it, offer it up a bit

Sacrament
Sacrifice
You decide which is right
Sacrament
Will suffice
In shedding the light

Peace .mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 2
E / B
E / B / G / A / E
E / G / A / E

Written and recorded on July 16, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

“Human sacrifice was a religious practice characteristic of pre-Columbian Aztec civilization, as well as of other mesoamerican civilizations such as the Maya and the Zapotec.” “Heart-extraction was viewed as a means of liberating the istli and reuniting it with the Sun, as depicted in Codex Magliabechiano, Folio 70 (illustrated in this section), wherein a victim’s transformed heart flies Sunward on a trail of blood.” “The Aztecs would give a series of rituals to unlucky nearby tribesman to be sacrificed with an obsidian knife, and donate their blood to Acolnahuacatl, an Aztec god. When they had known he had finished his drink and he was no longer thirsty, they would end the sacrificing. This ritual would go on for a whole weekend, so as to please the gods.”

A sacrament is “a Rite in which God is uniquely active”

“A calumet is a ceremonial smoking pipe used by some Native American nations. Traditionally it has been smoked to seal a covenant or treaty, or to offer prayers in a religious ceremony.”

Instead, fill your head — dreams do come true.

LYRICS
I’ve been told… I’ve been told (before I was too old)… I’ve been told… you can
Take a little love and spread it all over the world

Spread it on bread
‘neath the bedspread
Anywhere you want to
Even in your head
Take it. Give it. Take it. Spread it!
Take a little love and spread it all over the world

Spread it on the ceiling
Spread it on the floor
Spread it. Spread it. Spread it ’till they beg for more
Spread it. Spread it. Spread it ’till you’re folklore
Take a little love and spread it all over the world

Spread it on with feeling
Spread it on a S’more
Spread the warm and fuzzy. Penetrate the core!
Believe me if you spread it you’ll never be a bore
Take a little love and spread it all over the world

Come on, come on
Spread it on…
Take a little love like a baby
Not a wanna be. Not a maybe.
Take a little love and spread it all over the world

LYRICS
Tune in
Can I connect to the frequency?
(Is this correct can I connect?)
Can I see the deity
I want to talk to God
Tick, tick, tick, tock
(Of your lifetime clock)

I just got to listen

I am here and I hear!

What if God is listening to us?
If we don’t discuss the fuss
Instead we try to shush

Shh… shh… She’s listening

I’m here and I hear
Right
Here
Right here

I’m human
I can and I am

No one else has to die on a cross
No more martyrs

Hey, you
I’m here and I hear
Right
Here
Right here

Wait for me

The Monkey and the Ass

Posted on July 11, 2012July 11, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
You wanna be a snake in the grass
You’re more like a red baboon ass
The monkey in you
Gets the better of me
And, I have to flee

A snake in the grass?
More like a red baboon ass
You want to show your dominance
You only show ignorance
A snake in the grass
Red baboon ass
You want to show your dominance
And, all that bleeds through is ignorance

So dumb
Make us numb
You breed conceit

Dominance ignorance

You wanna be a snake in the grass
You show your red baboon ass

You, monkey
Won’t get the better of me
I am not going to submit to the submission

ABOUT
Capo 4
Keep a finger on Ab of the D-4 string

Why do some people force dominance and violence… especially within a family? A quote from Wikipedia about baboons:

“A female initiates mating by presenting her swollen rump to the male’s face. But “presenting” can also be used as a submissive gesture and is observed in males as well. This submissive gesture has many unspoken meanings amongst the troop. The dominant males often engage in what is known as a false-mount, in which they mount the submissive males. It is a sign of dominance, and happens very commonly to younger males in the troop.”

And, thinks that’s that

Well, this cat is resilient
And, he doesn’t take can’t, don’t or won’t

You’ve got to awake
You can’t just take, take, take

ABOUT
Capo 2
Played with a 5-string guitar (no G-string)
Keep index finger on A-5 string C# (for the most part)
F# variations with a beating beat

Written and recorded July 9, 2012 outside the Whitpain Township Police Department, Blue Bell, Pennsylvania. The song is about a dangerous mental illness that some people in authority develop — the militant attitude. On two separate occasions Whitpain Township Police officers sent me to the hospital, not to mention a host of other atrocities. In neither incident was I charged with a crime. Why do some people get pleasure from inflicting pain?

Posted on July 9, 2012July 9, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Did I dig into a nerve
Asking what God you serve?
Should have called 811
Now your #1 is on the run

Did I strike a nerve
Asking what God you serve?
I should have called 811
Now your #1 is on the run

Did I dig into deep
Is your conscious starting to creep
Does reality seep?

ABOUT THIS SONG
G / D / A / E
E / D

Recorded on July 8, 2012. It is the fourth song from the album Baby Formula. The third song, Number One, was about physiological flaws verses spiritual flaws. This song questions your emotional stability when questioned about morals and ethics (and your spiritual flaws.) The concept came about when I was watching an electric company workman, and I thought to myself, “I wonder why people don’t call God’s 811 before they start digging?”
