This is a song
It’s the soundcheck for the song
That we’re hoping to call “the party”
It’s a ska tune at 128 beats per minute
We’re working with this new Vox effects… pedal thing… we got it kinda for free at Sam Ash… it’s called the Vox Tone Lab… and it’s like C
If you wanna be free… the boogie… and, just doesn’t do it for we
Children going round and round
It’s getting down, down, down
To me
To me
Once we put the other further
Less and less will suffer
I can feel you….
And, you can, too
Then, you can see
You contribute to me
And, I to you, too
And, we sing in harmony
Once we see harmony
Harm no me
When you get down to the bass
The bass in the lower space
The bass takes over the lower space
The mid’s in middle
Not much of a riddle
Once the pieces fall together
(Feels natural)
Don’t ask why
Don’t let the middle pass by
And, the high
For you and I
When you get down to the bass
The basics
Of the music
Don’t let the high pass by
Once you get down to the basics
Of the music
It’s not a riddle of the middle
The basics of the music
It was originally titled the Party because of political parties… but, I forgot that part once the soundcheck started. I liked the soundcheck enough to just keep it. Anyway, it’s more about getting the parts of music together rather than governments. What the heck, feel free to take it either way.

LYRICS
Bend your mind and stretch through the stars
Send your mind and fetch through the stars
Bend your mind and stretch through the stars
Bend your mind and fetch through the stars
The message that you send
When it reaches your end
Might just be the message you receive
Might just be the message to relieve
Believe
In the end, the message that you send
Might just be the message you receive
Probably can’t hurt if you believe
In the end, the message that you send
Might be the message you receive
It’s in your will to relieve
In spite of what you believe
Believe it’s real
And, you’ll seal
The real deal
LYRICS
Does it feel as though we’re in the thick of it
With everybody moving so quick
Well, you know you can go to the show
Get in the flow
Go
Burn to the wick
Moving quick
Does it feel as though things are moving too fast
Wondering whether we’re gonna last
Well, you know… better than moving to slow
Either in the quick or of the dead
Let the followers be led
Let the rock be bled
LYRICS
An atmosphere of fear
Hovering in the fog of smog
Filth is in the air
In fact, it’s everywhere
Time for a fresh wind to blow again
The air is getting tight
And that ain’t right
Time to clear the atmos-fear
An atmosphere of fear
Lingering cloud over the crowd
Clouded reason veiled shroud
For crying outloud
Time for a fresh wind to begin
An atmosphere of fear
Did it make your make-up smear
Mascara masquerade parade
Trying to cover-up the humanitarian raid
Time for a fresh wind to blow in
LYRICS
Salamander or newt?
I knew it!
A newt is a salamander
Become an understander commander
Do you find the question odd:
Allah or Jesus or God?
I knew it
A subspecies thesis
An exhibit
All created in the image
An iconic mental representation
Spread out through every Age
Fabrication of the holy creation — manifestation
Whose the commander newt or salamander?
Which came first the chicken or the egg
Hard to use God’s name and not to slander
If everyone is equal, how can a beggar beg?
Hard to use God’s name and not to slander
Sss-allah-commander
LYRICS
Were you dreaming you were screaming
Calling as your falling
But, nothing coming though your lips was ever really forming
A silent scream
It was just a dream
Were you dreaming you were screaming
Reeling from the seeming
As you’re trying not to be the one that is dying
A silent scream
It was just a dream
Were you dreaming you were screaming
Flailing as your sailing
Obscene! I thought you couldn’t die in a dream
Taking over this consciousness stream
To a conscientious dream
