LYRICS
When it’s freedom you attack
It will haunt and daunt and taunt
’cause you know it’s coming back
Chorus
We’re in the pursuit of happiness
With my inalienable rights you shall not mess / Do NOT tread
You ain’t gonna take my freedom away / No not today
You ain’t gonna take my freedom away / Not anyway
Freedom of speech to say what needs said
by Eric Loos, Rick Reinhart and Daniel Brouse
written and recorded on February 26, 2013 in West Conshohocken, Pennsylvania
Chorus
Girl or no girl
My heart is split apart
Girl or no girl
My heart is split apart
Far away
I thought I’d never see the day
When things would go… go my way
Now the world’s… the world’s my pearl
Not gonna be a bug on the grill
Chorus
Bridge
And, I live by myself for a while
Finally, my face wear’s a great big smile
I’ve come to find that no girl
Will make me squirm or squirrel
Girl or no girl
My life is split apart
Girl or no girl
My life is going to start
Today

LYRICS
The police, like lice, will get in your hair
The police, like lice, are everywhere
Suppose to be a social servant
Suppose to be a civil servant
But, you’re neither civil nor serving
No, you don’t know how to be civil or serve
Causing me to flee
Bugging me out
The police, like lice
All these lice and flees
They’re bugging me out
I can’t scratch enough
They’re so &%$damn tough
The police, like lice, will get in your hair
The police, like lice, are everywhere
Police
Mean
Scream, “We need help!”
Hello, 911
I’m being assaulted by an officer of the law
He’s out of line
He’s out of bounds
He’s an outlaw
Assault
Kidnapping
Being restrained against my will
Bring on more trouble, still

LYRICS
Your voice is a gift from God
Let’s hide our pride
Instead of being proud
Let’s get loud
Your voice is a gift from God
Let’s get out The Word
With a meaning deeper
Than just a sound blurb
Can you feel it?
Can you hear it?
Can you get to know it?
If you listen with your heart
You can start to take part
Are you listening?
Wisdom and knowledge glistening
With the power of know
You can go

LYRICS
Will you follow?
Will you follow me to the other side?
Will you come with me to see?
Will you come?
(Watch afar as the world comes undone)
Did you know you could go
Pass through the looking glass
Why not pass through the looking glass
Come with me and see
Pass through the looking glass
Go deep inside
Then, spread it far and wide
Dig deep inside
Then, spread it far and wide
To the other side
To the farside
From inside to outside
Do you know
Will you follow
Will you go
Will you come with me
Will you come see
What lies beyond
Come to see
What lies with me

LYRICS
Got to try to get the knot out of whatnot
Got to try to untangle the mess
Got to try to straighten out the situation
Before we go into critical realization
Got to get the know out of whatnot
Before we’re dead, buried and forgot
Got to try to untangle this mess
Got to get the knot out of whatnot
Got to get the not out of whatnot
Got to see… maybe if we clear the debris
Maybe we can grasp the notion
Rise up above the commotion
Let’s get things in motion
Quit searching for a magic potion
There’s no need to cross the ocean
Again and again and again
No need to climb a mountain
Forget about never
We’ll stick together
Forget about forever
We’re right now
Somehow
We’re going to rise above the commotion
Get a grasp of the notion
We can create a motion
We can untangle this mess, I confess
Get the knot out of whatnot
Get the not out of whatnot

LYRICS
Do you remember?
Climbing on my shoulders
Riding on my back
Kissing by the boulders
Sitting on my lap
Hiking on the hill
We made a bet for fun
But, before you could fulfill
Your life’s undone
Looking down from heaven
Do you remember?
Do you remember… living in days like these
With God’s grace given
I do remember.
I do remember… the memories please
Hiking on the hill
We made a bet for fun
But, before you could fulfill
Your life’s undone
Here we are holding hands
Who would ever understand?
That you could fulfill
That someday you will fulfill
That this day you can still fulfill

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — G Em
G Am D G
Written in Chester County, Pennsylvania and captured as a digital, stereo, extemporaneous recording. Demo MP3 is 1 track. Video is 6-tracks.
This song was inspired by one of my first girlfriends, Janet Welch of Clearfield, Pennsylvania. I sat down to write a song about Valentine’s Day and just started playing about love. This is what came out.
We were in high school… passing notes and falling in love. We made what I considered a great bet. She lost the bet; however, before she could fulfill her end of the bargain, she died in a car crash. Does a spirit live on?

LYRICS
Welcome the new year
Happy you’re here
Now that this year is so near
It’s kind-of already passing us by
What will we do
Happy New Year
We’ll have to get through
Happy New Year
We’ll have to make do
It’s that time of year
When you want to make some sort-of a resolution
I would suggest a revolution
Against a resolution you won’t keep
Because we can’t weep…
No, we can’t weep any more
Too many dead on the floor
We’re tired of crying
I’m just saying…
It’s time for a happy new year
Happy New Year
It will be better than before
We can do so, so much more
Happy New Year!

LYRICS
Twenty thirteen
Hard to believe we’ve seen
Twenty thirteen
Like we’re living ON a dream
Living on a dream
The days
They come and go
Now, we’re going on beyond
The Mayan calender
Further
With no end in sight
Just the light
At the end of the tunnel
Joy and peace come to all
It’s wonderful
Twenty thirteen
Hard to believe it’s seen
Twenty thirteen
Like we’re living on a dream

LYRICS
In the hour of power
Our power
All that came before that was sour
In that final hour
She said, she will show LOVE
Shinning down from above
She, who holds the key
In the final hour
In the hour of power
We’ll find out our
Our punishment or reward
If you want to be under the shower
Of Her LOVE
Then, have faith in above
She said, I didn’t denounce her name
I loved Her all the same
And, in the reflection of the image
She’s been showering Love back again
Didn’t let her name go down in vain
Hour of power
Our final hour
Some may say it’s judgement day
Eventually everybody will find their way
When you get to your Baptism
Will it be Psalms and hymns
Or Brimstone and Satin
On your Judgement Day?

LYRICS
Nothing could be much harder
Nothing could be much easier
Then tracking in the snow
All depending on the flow
All depending when you go
If there’s snow on the ground
Just look around
But, if it’s snowing still
There’s not much time ’till….
So, if you go too slow
As it continues to snow
If you go too slow
Snow, snow, snow

LYRICS
Sitting on the bed
Looking out the window
Shaking of my head
Blocking out the shadow
When I was a child it use to snow
Since then, man went wild
Now, you never know
Standing with the keys
Pining out the window
Opportunity to seize
Singing to the snow
Where did you go?
We know
What we did to you, Snow
Please last
Please forgive us
For we know what we’ve done
First is last is first is last
Please forgive us,
Quasi-civilization Of The Dumb

LYRICS
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
You’re better off having one than not
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
No sense living life like a robot
Live the life that you’ve got
You might think you’ll be sailing your big yacht
… make it through the venture, not!
Coming to know the intricacies
Of the human life expectancy
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
You’re better off having one than not
There ain’t no life like the one you’ve got
When you wake up or if you do not
Maybe you will give a shout about
Life is more than just you
Why don’t you put yourself out there for others
How come, “Why not?”
’cause here ain’t no life like the one you’ve got

A song based on this conversation:
Anudder Cast said, So…after the Harold Camping thing, and the Mayan thing, can we be done with “End Of The World” tomfoolery for a while?At least when it comes to ancient prophecy hocus pocus?
Give me a good asteroid/Earth collision story or something next time, ok?
Daniel Brouse replied, You’re in luck… this just in — To the Church in Philadelphia: “Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.”
Daniel Brouse according to The Book on The End… Revelation 3-7… can’t get much better ancient prophecy than that… well, except for the book named after me http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Daniel%2012&version=NIV
7 “To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write:
These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. 8 I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. 9 I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars—I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you. 10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.
11 I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown. 12 The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name. 13 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
