ABOUT THE SONG
This song was inspired by people on the street. As I was writing the song in front of the old courthouse in West Chester, PA, a lady went out of her way to say, “Nice!” Then, a young girl walked by… turning her neck like an owl with an ear-to-ear smile.
LYRICS
Live from KingArthur.com with an important public service announcement:
I’d like to take this opportunity to remind all of you fine citizens out there in TV-land…
Don’t forget to tip the bartender
Don’t forget to tip the waitresseses
I’d like to tip the waitresses
… I’d like to tip the waitresseses
For making us tipsy
A tip for making us tipsy
If you just showed up
Raise a cup
Here’s what’s up
Don’t forget to tip the waitresseses
A tip for getting us tipsy
Now, I think I’ll walk home….
Maybe… if it’s not an inconvenience I’ll just sleep on your couch. I could sleep on the floor… you don’t need to worry… I’ll lock the door… on my out.
I could lock up?
Raise a cup
A tip to the waitresses
Don’t forget the bartender
Yeah, that’s a hard job… listening to all of our wine… ya know… we go into such detail… blah, blah, blah….

LYRICS
I don’t think I can hear your freedom of speech speech
When you start to wine, wail n’ preach
I don’t think I can hear your freedom of speech speech
Chorus
If you’re going to talk the talk
Better make sure you can walk the walk
To get what we teach to reach
(2) To get what we seek in deep
What we seek to sink in deep
Start to think I can see the kingdom come come
When we start to find, sail n’ then some
Start to think I can see the kingdom come come

LYRICS
The mad ones march on
The mad ones march along
Whistle their song
What madness will spawn
The mad ones march over
Over four leaf clover
Whistle their song
“Done me wrong!”
Seeing how they make veal
The pig lets out a squeal
Bringing home the bacon
For his kin
Forgiven of his sin
A gentle Gentile will begin
To do right over again
Created
Regurgitated
Resurrected
Reincarnated
Am I one and the same by any other name?

ABOUT THIS SONG
“In Jewish folklore, from the 8th–10th century Alphabet of Ben Sira onwards, Lilith becomes Adam’s first wife, who was created at the same time (Rosh Hashanah) and from the same earth as Adam. This contrasts with Eve, who was created from one of Adam’s ribs. The legend was greatly developed during the Middle Ages, in the tradition of Aggadic midrashim, the Zohar, and Jewish mysticism.[3] In the 13th century writings of Rabbi Isaac ben Jacob ha-Cohen, for example, Lilith left Adam after she refused to become subservient to him and then would not return to the Garden of Eden after she mated with archangel Samael.”
Some legends have Lilith mating with various demons and spawning all sorts of evil creatures. “It was there, in those caves, that Lilith spent her time having sex with lascivious demons, and she gave birth, day after day, to hundreds of demonic babies…”
