LYRICS
The dark of night
Gets coated in white
Covered like a blanket
Coming down… down blanket
Comforter
Will you comfort her?

Black of night
Covered in white

Turns the bright on the night
I can see
Intensity
It’s coming down
Like a blanket
It’s coming down
Coming down
Cover it
Thick and deep

It’s coming down
Thick and deep
Let’s hope our lives… we can keep

LYRICS
Soundcheck — “Blizzard”

Starts off with… talking about a lizard
A lizard blizzard

Lizard
Lizard grew
Lizard grew and grows and grew and grows into a dragon
Zilla God Zilla God Zilla Godzilla
King of the lizard

There was a squall
This squall said after all
I want to be tall
I want to be a tall
I want to be a tall tale
(tail of the wind… tale of the wind… )
I want to be the king of the storms
I want to blow hard
And not be a blowhard
The king of the storm
Cause to raise the alarm

King of the storm
The blizzard

The 100 year blizzard
A 500 year blizzard
The king of the storm
Enough to cause alarm
A state of emergency
See! Emergency!

The storm of the dragon
Blizzard
The king of the storm
As is the king of the lizard
The king of the storm
Blizzard

Sustained wind(s)
Blowin’
Visibility — snowblind
Visibility zero
Temperature subzero
(Climate unkind)
King of the storm
Blizzard
The blizzard

(I beg for some milk and an egg… I beg)

LYRICS
Stripped down
To the lean and clean

Gonna strip down
To the lean and clean

See what I can gleam
From the glistening (The Electric Slugs leave trails that are glistening)
Stripped down
(listening to the sound around)

interlude

Stripped down
Taking off those dirty clothes
Off that dirty robe
Disrobe and get clean
Gonna stand under that water flow and get to know
Stripped down
Stripped down
Down, down, down

(solo)

Stripped down

Gonna let that water flow, ya know?
Gonna get to know that water flow
Making me so clean
Let the water rain over me
Let the water reign over me
Gonna feel so clean

(bass jam of the subwoofer dub stepped dance-able)

Under the water flow you get to know
What it feels to be clean
Like… squeaky clean, I mean

Under the water flow
Under that flow
You get to know
What if feels to be clean
Like lean n’ clean

(post interlude / bass override / guitar solo overkill)

LYRICS
Let’s have some phunwitit?
Hey! What do you say
Can we have some phunwitit?

How about we quit?
Quit the reaper habit
Instead, let’s have some phunwitit
If we use our head
Instead
We use our head
And, have some phunwitit

[space interlude having fun with the sound]

Why so grim, Grim?
Why so grim, Grim Reaper?
Don’t want to be like him
Grim Reaper
Talk about a creeper
Want to quit that reaper habit
I want to…
Don’t you want to, too
Quit that… that reaper habit
(Gonna have some fun with it)

[space interlude having fun with the sound and dance]

I thought you said, “We were going to have some phunwitit?”
Maybe I missed that part
Unless you consider that art?

[space interlude having fun it]

Let’s have some fun with it?

I like your backing vocals
And the dancing girls
That’s what I call having some phunwitit
Let’s have some phunwitit
And… I like the way ya’ll got off your seat
And… off your feat and on your feet on your seat
You’re feet on the defeat of the seat
You had some phunwitit?
You had some phunwitit!
Yean, let’s have some fun with it

[Far outer space interlude]

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
I wouldn’t get caught-up in all of that
Tangled up in a knot
I’d rather not
No, I don’t really want to get caught-up in all of that
I hope to know when to let go of the millstone
(Do you have a millstone around your neck
What the heck?
Too aloof to take it off)
I don’t have to sit all high and mighty on my throne
If my ankle gets tangled up in the anchor’s chain
I’d rather refrain
From getting caught-up in all that
Rather stay a rocker than in Davey Jone’s Locker

No, I don’t really want to get caught-up in all of that
End up as some splat
I’m not into a tit-for-tat
No, I don’t really want to get caught-up in all of that
End up a splat
I have fears
Of a little loose clothing getting into the gears
Before I know what
I’m caught-up in all that
… I’ve the feelin’ it’s real beat to be mincemeat
I’d rather stay a rocker and keep the beat
Then, ending up being mincemeat
(What would my fans think at a meet and great?)

You know, this guy ain’t chopped liver!
I’ve got a life to live of being a giver
Thus, my reluctance to get caught-up in all that
In that hypocrite fat cat spat shat
(That’s it! The hypocrite fat cat spat shat… I don’t want to get caught-up in all that)
If it’s alright with you, I’d like to find out about gracefully “bowing out”

(Oh! That’s what that is — hypocrite fat cat spat shat. I don’t want to get caught-up in all that.)

LYRICS
I think I’ll go catch me a comet
Wanna come get it?

I’ve got a comet by the tail
But, I can’t wail
There’s no sound found in space
But, at least, there’s no friction upon my face

I’ve got a comet by the tail
I just wish I could wail
Ride ’em cowboy
Express your joy
But, I can’t wail
In space
But, at least, there’s no friction upon my face
There’s no sound to be found
In outer space

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Cheetah
Jaguar
Tiger
All in a line with the lion
King of the jungle

Not one to mumble and grumble
But it looks like a jaguar
And the cheetah
Together with the tiger
Are forming a line
with the lion
They’re standing shoulder to shoulder
If you have a girl, you better hold her
’cause those are some really bad cats
And ya know, they’re all in a row
Oh no

Cheetah
Tiger
Jaguar
Forming a line with the lion
I ain’t lying
I wish I had my whip and my chair
But they’re nowhere

No whip, no chair
Anywhere
No whip, no chair
We better beware
I don’t think we can hold back
An attack

Cheetah
Jaguar
Tiger
All forming a line with the lion
The king of the jungle
I can see it in their eye
Eye can see it in their I
They want to toss
And they want to tumble
They want to rumble
They want to eat me as meat
They want to eat me as a delicious treat

LYRICS
The supernatural is trending hard today
In the most peculiar way
Wouldn’t you say?

Better hold on tight
Gonna be a long night
The winds gotta bite
Better error toward right

We should left wrong along
Not so wayward prone
Chilled to the bone

Chorus

Is this The End of Times
Devilish riddles… hellish rhymes
Monster crimes

Chorus

They say an explosion out shines the Milky Way
An earthquake makes D.C. shake
What’s your take?

Chorus

Amid a bent pyramid
An impetus for evidence
Human cycle is on rinse

bookmark_borderDose Of Cosmos

Posted on by admin

A song inspired by NASA and scientists all around Earth… that inspire us earthlings to consider the realms. Here is a dose of the cosmos using their visuals… combined with a little fractal animation, chaos theory and special effects. A partial list of picture credits would include New Zealand, Earth, Moon (ours and others), Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, space debris, nebuli, galaxies, black holes and artists’ depictions.

LYRICS
I’m going to take a dose of cosmos
And get far out
Into my outer space

My body leaving no trace
Getting into my outer space

Going to take a dose of cosmos
And get far out
Without a doubt
Get into my outer space
Just put on your brave face
And, let’s get into our outer space

This is the verse
About getting out of the universe
We were much to close
Now it’s time to get far out
In our outer space
I hope I’m not off base
By suggest you take a dose of cosmos
And, get far out

Bizarre?
Mars isn’t that far
Get your arse passed Uranus
Maybe stop at Jupiter
Play a little guitar
Burn on Saturn
Another dose of cosmos
We’ll be in outer space
On the way through the Milky Way
As we transverse the universe
Another dose of cosmos

Just for fun
Go around the sound
Round and round the sun
Soon will be coming home
Around the moon
Take a dose of the cosmos
And, get far out

LYRICS
You are so beautiful
You’re beyond adorable
Of the beauty that was available
You soaked it in
You sucked it in
You’re so beautiful

You’re so beautiful
You’re full of beauty
So, easy to see
Yes, you’re easy on the eyes
The I’s, the me’s and the we’s
You’re so beautiful

It’s like you’re from out of the world
Cuddling, spooned and curled
You’re so beautiful

You are so beautiful
You’re beyond adorable
It’s incomprehensible how beautiful
It would be horrible
If I didn’t take you in
It’s be a sin
So, if you don’t, mind… I’ll begin

You’re the force that’s driving me
You’re the force that’s driving me
Into the future
For sure
You’re so beautiful
For sure

You were going to bet
I couldn’t remember the first time we met
That would have been my biggest regret
If we’d never met
’cause you’re so beautiful
Beyond adorable
You’re taking in the the beauty available
You’re beautiful
Full of beauty

Is there any hope for revitalization of our zombie nation?

Are salvation is in starvation
Is there any hope for revitalization of our zombie nation?

Lookin’ like air pollution is in stagnation
This can’t be hallucination
Oh, we need a crucifixion to save us from this zombie nation
Revitalization of our zombie nation

My mommy… zombie
My daddy… zombie
I’m starting to wonder if even me… zombie

Revitalization of our zombie nation
Revitalization of a zombie nation
Revitalization of this zombie nation
We’ve been in evolution stagnation
It’s way too late for all this hate
Got to hope that the love will rain down from above
Let the love reign down from above

Tired of being dumber
Let’s awake from our slumber
We’ve got this thing outnumbered
We could strive the notion of being alive
Revitalization of our zombie nation
A humane human nation
Revitalization
Rejuvenation

LYRICS
Have we all gone blind
To being kind
Have we lost our mind
Have we all gone blind
“I think I’ve lost my mind”
Going blind to being kind
Mankind going blind
To being kind

Do you mind if I ask you a few question?
Do you think we’ve gone blind to being kind?
Has mankind gone blind to being kind?
Have we come to find that mankind is totally blind to being kind?

I came to find mankind has gone blind to being kind
I think we’ll have to change our name
Out of shame
If mankind isn’t kind that leaves us in a bind
We’re gonna have to find another name
What a shame
I suppose it’s me and you
That are to blame
We’re gonna have to find another name
We’re to blame
That’s a shame

I’m hoping there’s still a shred shew
A shred shew to get us through
I do… how about you?
Hate to be a disgrace to the face of mankind
I’m going to find the kind in mankind
In humankind
