LYRICS
What’s that? Runnin’ round naked
Suspect hard to neglect
Quaking… foundation shaked
Waked — the origins of intellect
What the heck?

Started as hairless apes
Started shifting shapes
Clothing, leaves of grapes
Save us from disgrace
(save face)

Tainted… forbidden fruit
Garden… got the boot
Work… toil the soil
Strain… give birth in pain
Insane?

Given birth on Earth
Habit kickin’ habitat
What’s that? Stable genius
Less n’ less amongst us

What’s That.mp3

LYRICS
Some things you just can’t change
Others you can rearrange
An object in motion stays in motion
No matter your personal notion
Time rolls on
Dawn of dawn

One person’s trash is an other’s treasure
One person’s work is an other’s leisure
One person’s passion is an other’s pain
One person’s fashion is an other’s vain

Caterpillar’s ending… butterfly’s beginning
A king’s demanding as pauper’s begging
First to draw the last straw
Frozen winter starts to thaw

Start to begin and the end’s done in
Begin to start… the ends depart
For sure the future will endure
Even as the present passes to past
Time rolls on
Dawn of dawn

The New Sedition.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
A song inspired by Iran’s supreme leader and the protests of the “New Sedition”:

Supreme Leader Khamenei has blamed the protests on enemies of Iran. And, today, the commander of the elite Revolutionary Guard sent troops into three provinces to put down what he called the new sedition.

Iran’s supreme leader was in a supremely sarcastic mood Tuesday as he gave a speech to a sea of military officials. His target: Trump’s first foreign policy moves.

“We actually thank this new president! We thank him, because he made it easier for us to reveal the real face of the United States,” said Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to a transcript posted on his official website. “… Now, with everything he is doing — handcuffing a child as young as 5 at an airport — he is showing the reality of American human rights.”

LYRICS
Extreme whether?
Extreme weather!
Volatile all the while
Seekin’ shelter
Takin’ cover
Careful what you wish…
Might start raining frozen fish
Please don’t leave me standing all alone…
Bomb cyclone

Feel the genesis
Of bombogenesis
Adaptation of Revelation
Cyclical biblical
Of portion proportion
Seekin’ shelter
Takin’ cover
Careful what you wish…
Might start raining frozen fish
Please don’t leave me standing all alone…
Bomb cyclone

Could be the feaster of a Nor’ Easter
Jumbo shrimp? No need to skimp
Should be a whale of a wail tail/tale
When the mumbo bombo bomb cyclone hits home
If I had my druthers,
I’d rather mainly Maine lobsters*
(*tales hold the clause / tails hold the claws)
Floundering in flounder-ings
I’m up to my ass in sea bass
Careful what you wish…
Might start raining frozen fish
Please don’t leave me standing all alone…

LYRICS
Here I stand wringing my hands
I didn’t know you were such…
A gambling man
A gambling man
You put your egg in one basket
Tripped n’ fell, now you cracked it
All the King’s horses and all the King’s men
Could never bring gains to your losses again
… no never again
You’re a gambling man
Here I stand with head in hands
What I said, you didn’t understand
… didn’t understand?
Bulls and bears can be on top
But don’ you know pigs get slop?
… pigs get slop
It’s as easy as buy low… and, don’t you know
Try, try, try to sell high
… you’ve gotta sell high
Here I stand wringing my hands
I didn’t know you were such…

LYRICS
That which lay before us
Lie no more
The scales of justice / just us
Heard roar
Herd roar
All of us
Which lay before
The scales of justice… just us
Skating, skating on the thin ice
Maybe, maybe should have thought twice
Icing, icing on the cake
Shaked and baked before you wake
Now the toll you took, they take
Naughty, naughty could have been nice
Skating, skating on the thin ice
Maybe, maybe should have thought twice

I tell no lie
I say, if you look at it this way
That which lay before us
Heard roar
Herd roar
All of us
Which lay before
The scales of justice… just us
The scales of justice
It’s just us

LYRICS
It’s great to be back
Though I was never gone
No need to unpack
I’ve moved on from moving on
Moved along from moving on
For today, here to stay

For the love of my heart
From our start
Just becoming aware
Always there
Ever since birth
Grounded on Earth
If they’ve got the beat in ’em
Might as well join in
And the Earthlings sing
La, la, la, la
Reality thing swing
La, la, la, la

It’s great to be here
Guess I was since my dawn
It’s all coming clear
I’ve moved on from moving on
Moved along from moving on
For today, here to stay

LYRICS
If you know what’s best
Don’t grab her by the tail/tale
She will digest
And we’ll see how loud you wail
It’s the same sad story
Spread your wings and sail…
As you fall from glory
Into the epic fail
If you know the rest
I’m sorry for the boredom
Been put to the test
And, now I’m feelin’ dumb
’cause you’re suggestin’
I’m giving you the Nemesis follows Hubris blues

What is this…
… paying my dues

Bite the hand that feeds you
And, it’s a really big deal
Do what you want to
… a bite in the ass feel?
All about yourself
A narcissistic tail/tale
Pilfer wealth
Coffin’s final nail
If you know the rest
I’m sorry for the boredom
Been put to the test
And, now I’m feelin’ dumb
’cause you’re suggestin’
I’m giving you the Nemesis follows Hubris blues

LYRICS
Thought I heard them say
It’s plain as day
Standing in the light
Of the dark of night
May the day dawn on you
On the way dreams come true

It’ll be OK
We’re on our way
Standing in the light
Of the dark of night
May the day dawn on you
On the way dreams come true

Acquired journey
Is destiny
The farther you go
The more that you know
May the day dawn on you
On the way dreams come true

Accumulate
Prior to late
Standing in the light
Of the dark of night
May the day dawn on you
On the way dreams come true

Catching the drift
Ride the updraft
Soar to highest heights
Into the bright lights
May the day dawn on you
On the way dreams come true

LYRICS
Don’t know if I can testify
When you purse your lips
Don’t know if I can answer “why?”
You’ve the perfect hips
The politics of a complement
Give pause to lament
The politics of a complement
Give cause to what’s meant

Don’t know if I can satisfy
The rule or requirement
Don’t know if I can ratify
A fool as precedent

Are you a victim of her-ass-meant
#me too #it’s true
Found out that I am entertainment
For you know who
