LYRICS
Pick up your battle axe
Head on to the battle field
Where the reality is found
Of your battle wound

Chorus
Let out your battle cry
“We’re all gonna die!”
Does it matter why?
Doesn’t matter why?

Pay up you due tax
On your illegal yield
Less, when “The Book” is unbound
Your fate will be doomed

Chorus

LYRICS
22,000 days
If you’re lucky 100 years
Death displays in so many ways
Creating uncertainties… creating fears

Is your crime wasting time
Cheating the human race
Is your crime wasting time
Taking up precision space

22,000 ways
All days to shed in tears?
Keep death at bay on any given day
Shedding light… overcoming fears!

Is your crime wasting time
Cheating the human race
Is your crime wasting time
Taking up precision space

Can’t acquire a taste for waste

LYRICS
I bet that really stings
Makes your ears ring
Causes throbbing pain
Lack of oxygen to the brain

The road less traveled is more unusual
Such is learned by the stampede of the cruel
Do you see the cruelty of the cruel crowd rule?

(bullfight music interlude)

I bet that really brings
Pain and suffering
Obviously misery
Blinding is what I see

LYRICS
If we pick our battles like we pick our nose
Who knows where that goes

Ya might start to run
Ya might start to bleed
It’s no fun
Having to concede

Have we slipped into a rabbit hole
New Age mole… through the looking glass
Does time move pass n’ weigh too fast
Does too fast turn to wayback past

Chorus

While we have hands to have tome on our hands
Time to let loose on the command and command understand

LYRICS
There’s a big wide world larger than me
Now that’s easy to see
Since we share this consciousness why not requiesce
And go from I to us?

How can I ever be alone
Isn’t Earth all of our home?

If we wanna claim we’re from outer space
And not part of our race
Some sort-a born again alien
Better think again
Isn’t Earth all of our home
How can I ever be alone

Its time to hunker down and then charge in
… much to their chagrin
Get together begin sporting a universal grin
How can we ever be alone
Isn’t Earth all of our home?

LYRICS
There’s nothing wrong with searching and searching
As long as your researching is educating
Learn something new ’bout every moment
Startled by the movement
Think I surprised you?
You scared the crap out of me, too
But now that I see you’re just havin’ fun
Fawn on the run

There’s a squirrel lookin’ down at us
Thinking “in too bad taste” to be nuts
Had to agree, wink and nod
We should act like animals instead of God
Takin’ in the moment
Startled by the movement
Think I surprised you?
You scared the crap out of me, too
But now that I see you’re just havin’ fun
Fawn on the run

ABOUT THE SONG
E7sus4 E7 A7
D6 A7 E7sus4

Have you ever been scared of something only to find out there was nothing to fear? Such an instance inspired this song. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something moving. It was only a few feet from me. I could see it was larger than a rabbit… it was larger than a groundhog. It started stumbling and fumbling right toward me. Then, I recognized it was a fawn. It barely knew how to standup and run away.

Written and recorded at Lake Wynonah, Schuylkill County, PA.

LYRICS

Why live like you’re barely alive
Why even bother to try?
Why not give it all you’ve got
Why not?

The saddest thing I’ve ever seen…
Is Shoudy sailing in a U-haul truck
What the %uck?
Life gets obscene
Know what I mean?

Don’t hesitate
Before it’s too late
Tempt fate
Go irate
Set ’em straight

Come on back, Jack!
The best crib to ad-lib
Music, dancin’ shakin’ the shack

Why live like you’re barely alive
Why even bother to try?
Why not give it all you’ve got
Why not?

LYRICS
Here it comes!
Add up the sum of the sum of the sums
Here it comes

Here it comes!
It comes
Will come like a drip, drip, drip
To the tick, tick, tick-tock
Of the clock
Will it walk the walk
Just talk the talk
Talk the walk walk the talk?

Well, do you know
Will it flow
Will it usher in the gusher?
Here it comes!

Here it comes!

Will it rush right out
We’ll we find out
When it’s not quite
It won’t quit
Will it just keep coming like a comet
Through the atmosphere
Do we have something to fear?
’cause here it comes!

Here it comes!

Hope it’s bringing fun
And, then some
’cause there’s nowhere to run
Here it comes!
Like the light of the sun
I yearn that it won’t burn
I am hoping that it will shine so fine
Like a light divine

Here it comes!

Gonna usher in the gusher
Gonna know the flow
It’s about
It’s about to spout
It’s about to spout out
Here it comes!
