LYRICS
Again and again with the sin, sin, sin
Then say it’s only true if I go through you?
Don’t you think Jesus had a dog, too
Who did either of them have to go through

Don’t try to save me

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
All good dogs go to heaven
8, 9, 10 then 11
All good children go to heaven

Don’t try to save me

Over and over with brimstone scented sulfur
Saying hell’s the only viable offer

Don’t try to save me

Don’t you think Jesus HAS a dog, too
How did they manage to get on through?

Don’t try to save me
Don’t wanna enslave me

Hold my hand into the Promised Land
Where the trees grow tall… and from the sky… bones fall
… bones will fall

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Em Em+c#
A Em
A D G

A song inspired by the passing of the family pet. It’s about doing your best at doing what’s right. The day my dog died a bunch of religious zealots tried to save me. So, if Jesus is the only way to heaven, how does a dog get into heaven. Even more puzzling, how does Jesus get into heaven?

LYRICS
As it starts to fall on the curtain call
Unable to stall… with a smile stand tall
“That’s all!”

No matter how you scream, “More, more, more!”
Last encore. Last encore.

Take the courtesy of a bow or curtsey
Give the electricity of giving total
“That’s all!”

Well, Folks, I enjoyed the jokes
And the music brought pleasure quick
An amazing festival… a hell of a ball
However, “That’s all.”

That’s all
That’s it
That’s all
I hate to quit
That’s all
Over and done
Fade to the setting sun

That’s All Folks.mp3

LYRICS
What’s round at the end
And really just depends
How soft it is in the middle

What’s found at the end
Will really just depend
On if you can solve the riddle

Hurry before it’s too late
You clock is running out
And if your end is full of hate
The End is near… no doubt

It’s true it’s you
How true are you
On this true and false test

If false your loss
Ain’t no coin toss
I suggest you try your best

LYRICS
You want me to decide?
I’d rather just run n’ hide
No, I just can’t go along for the ride
When it’s the life and death divide

I’m no good
At playing God

You want me to make the shot
I’m tellin’ you I’d rather not
You want me to make the call
No, I’m not up for that at all

I’m no good
At playing God

You want me to stop the heart
I’ve not the heart to stop the start
You want me to cease the breath
I’m not one to induce death

I’m no good
At playing God

LYRICS
You know I hate to say goodbye
But I don’t know what else to try
You know I hate to say goodbye
It brings a tear to the eye.. I cry

At least your not a slave
To how a dog should behave
The soul we remain
And ride the great gravy train
You can dig right through
To the heavenly view

Be born anew

You know
At least finally you’ll be tumor free
I suppose only God knows the reason why
At least the pain will cease and you’ll release

See you upstairs
Without the cares
Be born anew
I love you, I do
