LYRICS
They say, they say
We’re out of the Golden Age
We’re past the Uranium Age
We’ve entered the Plutonium Age

Say, say what do you say?

Even after generation upon generation upon generation
Upon sage upon sage upon sage
We rolled out of the Golden age

“You are now leaving the Golden Age”
How will you ever manage?

They say we’re leaving the Golden Age
Going past the Uranium Age
Must be in the Plutonium Age
A nuclear nightmare
Stay clear

I guess we’ve left the Golden Age… left it far behind
The how to be kind kind
The kind of kind that would mind
Do you find that you mind
All the things that society brings

I guess we’ve left the Golden Age
Entering the time of severe rage
Let our animal instincts think
And, we don’t mind not being kind

Acting like a mean old junk yard dog
Acting like a hog
Acting like a junk yard dog
Howling at the moon
None too soon, we’ll be left howling at the moon

They say we’ve left the Golden Age
At the nucleus, we’ve turned nuclear
Exactly as we did fear
Time to wear military gear
Now, your task
Get a gas mask
They’ll be dropping bombs
Sending you flying to your tomb

Don’t want that coming too soon
Just howling at the moon

Thank you for putting me here, my Lord

You come into life
As though you’re here to stay
I’m sorry to tell you
It’s just not that way

Enjoy each day
As if it’s your last
’cause every lifetime is sure to pass

Conquer our strife
Keep evil at bay
The fortune to tell you
You’re found the right way

Give me freedom, and I’ll be home

Land, sea or foam
Wherever I may roam
Give me freedom, and I’ll be home
Give me freedom, and I’m coming home

Give me freedom, and I’ll be home
Add a dash of liberty
The taste we shall hone
So, the flavor is just right
For civil rights
And, the fat cats
Give up the fight

Give me freedom, and I’ll be home

Lord, tell me I ain’t alone
Give me freedom, and I’ll be home
Ring the bell. We’ll come hone
Give me freedom, and I’ll be home

Give me freedom, and I’ll be home
Freedom, here I come
Give me freedom, and I’ll be home

LYRICS
Who let the fox in the hen house again?
(repeat x3)

As long as we don’t cluck
And, &^$% things up
If we all start panicking
We’ll stampede in our own confusion

Like sitting ducks on the first day of huntin’
(repeat x3)

Probably should take flight
Before we’re in their sights
If they all start shootin’
We’ll stampede in our own confusion

ABOUT THE SONG
A song about politicians and the herd mentality of citizens.

A stampede is an act of mass impulse among herd animals or a crowd of people in which the herd (or crowd) collectively begins running with no clear direction …

“Politics is the entertainment arm of industry.”
— Frank Zappa

LYRICS
Beam me down, Scotty

Beam me down
All our sensors have found
There’s nothing around

Scottie

Beam me down

On the ground
What I fear
Was found…
No intelligent life around

I mean know
Of the human species
No, no know, no know

I said, “Take me to your leader.”
They said, “We have none in which we can trust.”
Then, we agreed it’s a must
In a leader, you must trust

At the very least, that’s a must
A leader you can trust
And, we all agreed,
We’ve had too much greed

We sat down
For a little picnic
So, we can think quick
Where’s Frank Zappa when ya need ’em

I suppose you’re right
Who would listen to him
cause he already ready said it once
Know need to say it twice
Are we men or mice?

I had to think twice

LYRICS
You can believe in what you want to believe in
As long as your believe
Or else you’ll be *it*
A hypocrite

Do you have faith in what you believe
Then you’d better believe
You better believe in what you believe
Or that’s it
You’re the hypocrite

Do you want to believe in yourself
Then, go right ahead
As long as you believe in what you believe
Do you want to believe in God Almighty above
Then, go ahead
As long as you believe in what you believe
’cause there is this universal love
As long as you believe

Whether you want to believe it’s God above
Or, you believe it’s in your heart
As long as you start
Believe in what you believe

Let’s believe
We can relieve
The pain and suffering
Letting the love in
If you believe

You can believe in what you want to believe in
As long as your believe
We can believe if you believe
In the power of love

LYRICS
Jesus vampire…
Upon your empire?

Somewhere along the line
People thought it would be just fine
To claim it as their own
(The Martyr’s throne)

Like the Pope’s empire
Built on Jesus The Vampire

Once you’re a vampire
You can’t retire

Nails through the hands and feet
Step right this way and get your seat
Get your fill on Calvary Hill

A vampire Jesus just for us
Christ the Lord has risen today
Hallelujah
Hell-elujah

Higher!
Take us higher
Jesus vampire
Show us the glory of all
Tell us the story
Of the good
And, how we could and should

Jesus vampire
Take us higher

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Em Em7 Em7(11) A

The song was inspired by a conversation with my son, the vampire slayer, on Good Friday.

Daniel 12

New International Version (NIV)
The End Times

12 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. 2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.

John 2:22
When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

“Vampire Definition — Among the Romani people, mullo (literally one who is dead) are believed to return from the dead….”

Don’t be no dread

For you mental health
Don’t cast a spell on yourself

If you fell victim to black magic

You are my sunshine

Bring love and feeling fine

That would be tragic
If you fell victim to black magic

Cure the ill… heal the sick

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you say mayhem?

I don’t know that’s who I am

Excuse me, Ma’am
Were you addressing me
If so, I’ll try to see

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you say mayhem?
I didn’t ever want to be the master
Of what you would consider disaster

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you say mayhem?
Would you mind repeating it again

Do you want to play the ham
Then, say it again — mayhem!

You thought the pork was all &^%$ed
You ain’t see nothing
Go tell your Gram

Avoiding the P.M.
For the A.M.
Cause that’s where I am
That’s where we are
Out under the stars

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you want mayhem?

That’s not who I am

I try, try, try
To make sense of all humanity
I try… how I try
But, if it falls on deaf ears
Then that’s exactly what you feared
