LYRICS
Kingdom Come is coming
Kingdom comes when we’re undone
Kingdom Come, come
We are calling
The End of Days
Will change our ways
How the word plays

Promised Land is landing
Due to lack of understanding
Too damned demanding
We are calling
The End of Days
Will change our ways
How the word plays

Could it even be heaven
May be time to start believin’
Kingdom Come, come again
Soon we’re leaving
The End of Days
Will change our ways
How the word plays

Ahhh…..

LYRICS
In the morning
The sun is rising
What’s surprising
You find it boring
The life you excite
Excites life

Noon drams nigh
The sun is high
Wonder why
You don’t try
The life you excite
Excites life

In the evening
The sun is setting
What’s upsetting
You find it boring
The life you excite
Excites life

The dark of night
Need insight
Be the light
Shinning bright
The life you excite
Excites life

LYRICS
Excuse me Mister
Do you believe in God
Excuse me Madam
I find your question odd
Contemplating
The virtues of “why not?”
“Sure” the answer
Quickly came to thought
Why not give it a thought
Why not?

Excuse me God
Do you find it odd
The world of MadMan
Votes for “God damn”
Contemplating
The virtues of “why not?”
I thought, “Heaven…
Can not be bought”
Why not give it a thought
Why not?

LYRICS
You’re getting warm
The situation’s volatile
Lesson to learn
Weather’s getting hostile
Sure is a fine line
To define the shoreline
And, the air we share
Who knows what’s in there?

You’re getting warmer
Didn’t wanna alarm ya
Make the same mistake
Warm until we bake

Atmosphere’s
So think it can smear
A sea change wish
Less plastic then fish

You’re what’s left of fine
Together let’s make time
Aware that we’re both there
To mend the disrepair

ABOUT THE SONG
This song is about the increased volatility in weather causing extreme weather events.

We are not saying that the Earth’s temperature is just going to rise. In general, as energy is added to a system, the fluctuations in the system increase. So, we expect more storms, more droughts, more wildfires, more floods, more fluctuations of all kinds. What we are saying is that weather conditions will become more volatile due to the impact of humans — Brouse & Mukherjee

The song was also inspired by current events including:

LYRICS
In the beginning
Could the Big Bang
Be heard around the world?
I’ve been told
Sound doesn’t travel in space
Sound doesn’t race through space
So, if so…
At what pace
’cause if there is no sound and no one around
How big can a bang be?
Answer’s troublin’ me
Eluding Man’s history
How big of a bang can it be?

LYRICS
There’s turkey in the dining room
There’s presents under the tree
The 3rd day you’ll rise from the tomb
In a resurrection analogy
(resurrection can you see?)
And before too long you’ll remember this song
Alleluia… all… ahhhhh

It’s turnkey… pick your door
Transcending about to begin
Beyond the door… way more (weigh less)
Pass through the door… way more (or heartless?)
And you can’t go wrong singing this song
Alleluia… all… ahhhhh

If there’s a monkey on your back
You’re dancing with Mr. Jones
There’s a source for what you lack
Not involving groans and moans
Helping it a long by remembering this song
Alleluia… all… ahhhhh
Amen

LYRICS
Why do we want to make it so we twist and bleed
It’s getting harder and harder to breathe
The day has dawned “beyond so long”
Come to know “you reap, you soooo(-ed)”
Guilt in silence… not even a peep?
Is what we reap “playin’ for keeps”
Did you bet there’s no harm
Betting the farm?

Why have we made hate our destiny
Why have we made hate our legacy
The day has dawned “beyond so long”
Come to know I’m my own worst foe
Now, we’re in too deep
Playing for keep

Made a habit of destroying habitation
A destruction nation in self-annihilation
The day has dawned… so long beyond
We’re all “coming home”, I reckoned
Coming ’round the bend to…
The End

LYRICS
I overheard
It’s a record
Too much sun
Reigns on our fun
When it’s too hot
We can not
This record heat
Is beat
…2,3,4
How much more?

What we got
Is too hot
Getting difficult to endure
Any more temperature
Did you see the mercury
Going up in history
Going down! It’s misery
Absurd record
Invoke heatstroke
Add the absurdity of the humidity
Think you can sweat it?
Forget it!
Can’t compete with record heat
Na ugh-uh na uh-uh
No, can’t compete with the record heat
Na ugh-uh na uh-uh

Am I all alone?
Prone to ozone
Hold the phone…
I’m not alone
Don’t breathe
Grieve
Only way to relieve
don’t breathe!
Hold your breath

Hold your breath
It’s all you can do

Sick, sick, sick
No singing songs
Damage the lungs
Damage prolongs
Swan song sung
In the “Ohh!” zone

ABOUT THE SONG
Q: Do you know what are two of the most dangerous exposures for children and the elderly?
A: Fresh air and sunshine

On days like today, do not go out and play. The sun can damage your skin and cause cancer.

Sunshine is also part of a deadly reaction.  When combined with heat and volatile gases, ultraviolet light causes a deadly reaction by creating  tropospheric ozone.

The dangerous ozone (O3) is created when vehicle (and other) exhaust is not completely combusted. Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in the exhaust react to temperature and sunlight creating tropospheric ozone (O3).

The ozone in the air can cause permanent damage to your respiratory and immune systems.

LYRICS
Under the loom of doom
There is gloom
Where you come to know
About the shadow
I crawled out long ago
In sight of the light
(Insight of the light)
At the end of the tunnel… our birth canal
I am optimism
I hope you hope
I am with optimism
Together we cope
Optimism, I’m comin’

Why generate a dark cloud
Self-suppression… crying out loud!
Don’t hesitate to rise about
Over-lords reigning down love
I am optimism
I hope you hope
I am with optimism
Together we cope
Optimism, I’m comin’

It’s your call
After all, it’s your ball
On the downfall
Going to take it all?
Earth – our great bus
Traveling through the universe
Do you want to get on with the rest of us?

You decide
How far and wide
(How long to ride?)
It’s your choice
Will you raise your voice
Earth – our cosmic train
Wanna get off or wanna remain
Don’t want to fail… don’t want to derail
What the heck? No train wreck!

Earth – meant our movement
How will we spend every moment
Let’s set sail toward prevail
And the ending of a happy fairy tale

We’ll know when o begin
As stars fall from heaven
We’ll know when the time arrives
A ratio of dies to lives
When the judgement comes due
That’s when we’ll follow through

Contagious love

We’ll know just what to do
Good God! Let’s make love

Take Her by the hand

Less forsaking… more love making
I feel like making love with you

A light bulb went on in my head
Thinking over what was said
I do believe, my dear
We’ll come up with an idea
Let’s get together
Discuss what’s forever
The levity of our brevity
Vs. our boundless energy

A spark to light up the night
Spark the dark… make it bright
I do believe, my dear
We’ll come up with an idea

The biggest deal since the wheel
They said better than sliced bread
See what the though brought
Giving birth to peace on Earth
I think before you blink
I think we all can think
I do believe, my dear
We’ll come up with an idea
Let’s get together
Discuss what’s forever
The levity of our brevity
Vs. our boundless energy

Please don’t set the precedent of denying… denying denying
When you are the President
Please don’t set the precedent of lying… denying lying
World peace cease… situation dire
When the whole world knows you’re a liar
Citizen cries over “White House Lies”

You’re a liar

Hear the cries from all over the world
Here and now you’ve been told
You’re a liar
Fiddle all night by the fire’s light
To the delight of the people’s fright
You’re a liar
Nero, you’re no hero
From 1-10… zero
Won’t you please go blow
(Go below. Go be low. You know… go blow)

In a crowded theater when there’s no one near it
Everyone can hear it… yelling, “Fire!”
You’re a liar
We should impeach over freedom of speech
You’re a liar
