LYRICS
If we ever hope to get out of this
Then there’s something we just can’t miss
If we’re going to make the long-shot
Better give ‘er all we got
Why not?
Give ‘er all we got

If we ever hope to see the light
Then might want to keep insight
If we’re going to make the long-shot
Better give ‘er all we got
Why not?
Give ‘er all we got

If we ever want to solve the riddle
Better stop the piddle-diddle
If we’re going to make the long-shot
Better give ‘er all we got
Why not?
Give ‘er all we got

LYRICS
Cleverly disguised as the fool
Playing the part of my master’s tool
Never considered alternative rule
Just a mule
You can lead me to water
Just a mule
But you can’t make me drink
Just a mule
You can beat me to slaughter
Just a mule
But you can’t make me think

Cleverly disguised as the fool
Playing the part of my master stool
Never considered alternative rule
Just a mule
You can lead me to water
Just a mule
But you can’t make me drink
Just a mule
You can beat me to slaughter
Just a mule
But you can’t make me think

LYRICS
Here’s the thing
Free the string
And it’s off floating
Hold on tight
Or it might
Fly away
O.K.?
What did your mother say
Been saying it all day
If you don’t hold on tight
Your balloon is out of sight
Hold on tight
Or it might
Take to flight
Hold on tight
(You know…
Don’t let go!)

So you know
Don’t let go
Watch if winds blow
Hold on tight
Or it might
Fly away
O.K.?
What did your mother say
Been saying it all day
If you don’t hold on tight
Your balloon is out of sight
Hold on tight
Or it might
Take to flight
Hold on tight
(You know…
Don’t let go!)

Spare regret
Don’t forget
Don’t lose the bet
Hold on tight
Or it might
Fly away
O.K.?
What did your mother say
Been saying it all day
If you don’t hold on tight
Your balloon is out of sight
Hold on tight
Or it might
Take to flight
Hold on tight
(You know…
Don’t let go)

bookmark_borderHolding Me Down

A song about how gravity saved my life. So though I may complain from time-to-time about her holding me back, thank you for keeping me grounded.

LYRICS
What goes up
Will come down
As long as
Gravity’s ’round
Pulling me back
Pulling me back
Pulling me back
To Earth
Pulling me back
Pulling me back
Pulling me back
Ever since my birth

In spite of my plight
The weight of the world
Unfurled…
Well, here’s the darnedest thing
Now, I sing of the joys gravity brings
Hold me down, down, down
Despite my strife
Saved my life

LYRICS
In time
There’s a little bit of sunshine
Coming this way
And you know
It’s enough to say
I see my shadow
Hope to watch ‘er grow

That’s fine
Please don’t quit, Sunshine
Making my day
And you know
It’s enough to say
I see my shadow
Hope to watch ‘er grow

I’m cryin’
Don’t take my sunshine
Away… please stay
’cause you know
Long enough to say
Still see my shadow
Love watching ‘er grow

As the day goes on
My shadow grows long
While I whistle
To life’s sweet song

LYRICS
As I stand here breathing it in
Can’t help thinking how lucky I am
The effort it takes to be
When it all comes to me
In search of a glass house resident
Evident
Not prone to throw stone

Still standing taking it in
Breathing in the oxygen
Can’t believe it’s for free
See?
It all came to me
The effort it takes to be
When it all comes to me
In search of a glass house resident
Evident
Not prone to throw stone

Reflecting on the scene I’ve seen
Feeling blessed… know what I mean?
A moment of clarity
“To Be”… it all comes to me
The effort it takes to be
When it all comes to me
In search of a glass house resident
Evident
Not prone to throw stone

LYRICS
Sad, sad story
New found glory
Went to his head
Turned to walking dead
‘nough said
What could have been
Only if when
Going to his head
Turned to heart, instead
… love led
Indeed,
Let love lead
Let love lead,
Indeed

Sad, sad scenes
What it means
Started too vain
Then went insane
Stars wane
What could have been
Only if when
Going to his head
Turned to heart, instead
… love led
Indeed,
Let love lead
Let love lead,
Indeed

Sad, sad sacks
No take-backs
Rose to the top
But just couldn’t stop
The flop (FLOP!)
What could have been
Only if when
Going to his head
Turned to heart, instead
… love led
Indeed,
Let love lead
Let love lead,
Indeed

A song about: POCOPSON TWP., Pennsylvania — Pennsylvania state police have issued an arrest warrant for professional skateboarder and former “Jackass” star Brandon “Bam” Margera.

TMZ reported: According to cops — who say they spoke to the alleged victims, who happen to be Bam’s family members in this case — the former ‘Jackass’ star started banging on his brother Jesse’s bedroom door around 8 AM on Sunday … and left an ominous note behind.

Jesse told police the signed letter from Bam read, “If you even f***ing think of calling the police on me I will officially f*** you up.” Jesse goes on to say he then went downstairs to find Bam peeing into the kitchen sink, at which point … a fight allegedly broke out.

In the docs, Jesse claims Bam wailed on him and struck him multiple times in the head — and cops make a note of this in their report, noting visible injuries they say they observed.

After the brawl, Jesse goes on to allege that Bam said, “I’ll kill you. I’ll put a bullet in your head.” Jesse also told police that Bam allegedly said he’d also kill everyone in the house … the occupants of which, at the time, included his dad Phil and two other women. Jesse told police that Bam fled into the woods behind their house after this … and cops say they came up short when they went looking for him.

LYRICS
Have you no clue
I’m asking you
Offering more CO2
Least you can do
Is keep it to you
Please don’t spew
More CO2
Your gasses
Upon the masses
Surpasses
Killing time
Your gases
Upon the masses
Surely passes
As a crime

Go directly to jail
Do not pass go
No, no, no
Straight to jail
Without fail

Are you insane
It’s a damn shame
Offering more methane
If we’re to remain
Got to refrain
Please try to retain
Your methane
Your gasses
Upon the masses
Surpasses
Killing time
Your gases
Upon the masses
Surely passes
As a crime
Killing time
It’s a crime

Go directly to jail
Do not pass go
No, no, no
Straight to jail
Without fail

LYRICS
Far from the norm
Extreme storm
Better sound the alarm
Flee the harm
Time to begin that straight line wind
Take it to the chin… known wind blown
I’m thinking what the warning meant
Better get down to the basement
As a matter of fact, sky’s pitch black
We’re already under attack
Get back

Normal no more
Not before
Extreme downpour
2, 3, 4
Time to begin that straight line wind
Take it to the chin… known wind blown
I’m thinking what the warning meant
Better get down to the basement
As a matter of fact, sky’s pitch black
We’re already under attack
Get back

The sky wails hail
Time to bail
Should have set sail
Never fail
Time to begin that straight line wind
Take it to the chin… known wind blown
I’m thinking what the warning meant
Better get down to the basement
As a matter of fact, sky’s pitch black
We’re already under attack
Get back

Lost in the foray
The cat and mouse are at play
Caught in the day-to-day
Be better off getting away
Never a better place
Than your space
Never a better time

When? Than this then

Lost in the foray
Post-predator turned to prey
Caught in the day-to-day
Be better off getting away
Never a better place
Than your space
Never a better time
Than this then
When? Than this then

Lost in the foray
Say life has turned you gray?
Caught in the day-to-day
Be better off getting away
Never a better place
Than your space
Never a better time

One of the best days going
Some of the best times showing
So far
So far
One of the best things knowing
We’ve got the best thing going
Our are
Our are
A little bit more of that birthday cake
We make the most of what we make
The more I live the more to give
Had enough of just take, take, take
So serene
Livin’ that dream
How’s it feel?
So surreal

Best things still growing
Wind of change is blowing
Our way
Our way
Morning star is glowing
Dawn’s light is flowing
New day
A little bit more of that birthday cake
We make the most of what we make
The more I live the more to give
Had enough of just take, take, take
So serene
Livin’ that dream
How’s it feel?
So surreal

Love the curves you’re throwing
Love the love I’m knowing
Bizarre
Bizarre
No more needless woeing
We’ve got the best thing going
Our are
Our are
A little bit more of that birthday cake
We make the most of what we make
The more I live the more to give
Had enough of just take, take, take
So serene
Livin’ that dream
How’s it feel?
So surreal

Which came first
The wicked witch / which
Or the glacier
Are you sure?
Cold as ice
Paying the price
Temperature’s mounting
“I’m melting”
Did you know
It’s starting to go
Started slow
Now watching it flow
Oh, woah?!?!

Take pause at the fate of Oz
In your future
That’s for sure
Cold as ice
Paying the price
Temperature’s mounting
“I’m melting”
Did you know
It’s starting to go
Started slow
Now watching it flow
Oh, woah?!?!

What to do?
Not your shoes nor Toto, too
Can save you
Cold as ice
Paying the price
Temperature’s mounting
“I’m melting”
Did you know
It’s starting to go
Started slow
Now watching it flow
Oh, woah?!?!

What makes you think I won’t
What makes you think it’s a joke
Better pray that I don’t

And we’d rather be glad

And we’d rather be glad
Than mad
Eventually
We’ll all come to see
We’re in this together
Even you and me
Will all come to be
If we’re to weather

Do you go back and forth
Between yes and/or no
Does your slack lack the worth
Obscene mess and you know

Do you hem and haw
Between yes and/or no
Evil’s stem — a loose jaw
Come clean, confess, you know
And you know
Here we go

Blow by blow

Do you procrastinate
Between yes and/or no
Can’t pronounce “denounce hate”
Could care less and you know
And you know
Here we go
Here we go
Blow by blow
