Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What do you hope to prove
By attempting to move
The line between fact and fiction
Affliction
Sick logic contradiction

What do you hope to prove
By attempting to move
The line between love and hate
Fake create
Sick logic adjudicate

What do you hope to prove
By attempting to move
The line between good and evil
Ethics upheaval
Sick logic of the devil

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What have you got to lose?
Not to choose is to choose
Win some
Lose some
Naturally to be
Love sum
Then some
I’ll strive while alive

What have you got to gain?
All the times that remain
Win some
Lose some
Naturally to be
Love sum
Then some
I’ll strive while alive

What do we have at stake?
All nature can create
Win some
Lose some
Naturally to be
Love sum
Then some
I’ll strive while alive

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do you want to live your life being mad
Perpetually sad
Don’t you think that would stink
So bad
Get glad!
(So glad, know glad, ohhh glad!)

Do you want to live your life all crazy
In a petulant frenzy
Pretty sure that can’t endure
Too bad
Get glad!
(So glad, know glad, ohhh glad!)

Do you want your life to pass you by
Never knowing really “why?”
Last gasp before you die sigh
If I’d
Get glad
Get glad!
(So glad, know glad, ohhh glad!)

LYRICS
Never ending circle dance
Birth on Earth
Back to earth
Both ends pomp and circumstance
Hydrogen, oxygen, then…
Carbon, nitrogen made Man

So I did begin
Likely will retreat
Between I’m singin’
To the circle of life beat
Keep singing
Keep dancing

Never ending circle dance
Birth on Earth
Back to earth
Both ends pomp and circumstance

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Can touch “I am”… I think
(Heart beat)
A conflict of intellect
And circumstance
Watch it pass by
Or stand up
And take a stance

Can touch “I am”… I think
To restrict the derelict
Or cooperate
Watch it pass by
Or ask why
And participate

I think I am… in touch
The question: how much?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
There’s always been more more before
But now depleted
There’s always been more more in store
For now completed
Anoint our exploit with conceit
Appoint our desire to deplete
Higher than our need to eat

There’s always been more more before
Nature’s defeated
There’s always been more more in store
Our greed’s deep-seated
Anoint our exploit with conceit
Appoint our desire to deplete
Higher than our need to eat

There’s always been more more before
Mothers maltreated
We’ve never been this poor before
Problem untreated
Anoint our exploit with conceit
Appoint our desire to deplete
Higher than our need to eat

LYRICS
Turned yellow
Running into red
Spurned fellow
Gonna wake up dead
In case you’re wondering
Here’s the saddest thing
You won’t hear angels sing

Turned yellow
Burning in the red
Knees of Jello
You’ve made your bed
In case you’re wondering
Here’s the saddest thing
You won’t hear angels sing

Learned Hell-o
Bet your obit. read
Earned hell, oh…
Will you know you’re dead?
In case you’re wondering
Here’s the saddest thing
You won’t hear angels sing
Amen

LYRICS
A stowaway
On a run to circle the sun
A stowaway
Hitched a ride on Earth since birth
Whoever’s driving this thing
I’d surely love to know
Forever striving to bring
Conscience feelings flow

A stowaway
On a run to circle the sun
A stowaway
Hitched a ride on Earth since birth
Whoever’s driving this thing
I’d surely love to know
Forever striving to bring
Consciousness to flow

Clandestine traveler
Time unraveler
Tearing through the days
Part particle riding the wave
Through the day
Making way

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Are you coming… are you going?
Hard to tell which end is showing
As you turn away
Neither face can say
Not knowing
Just another day
Glasshouse sort-of way
Rock throwing

Are you coming… are you going?
Hard to tell which end is showing
As you walk away
Neither face in play
Unknowing
Just another way
Glasshouse living day
Stone throwing

Are you coming… are you going?
Hard to tell which end is showing
As you fade away
Faces in disarray
Fought knowing
Live your last day
Glasshouse error day
Still throwing

LYRICS
Really picked that right out of nowhere
Right into sight… naught… now there
Precision of a magician
Focus on hocus pocus
Merlin will rise again

Pure pulling a rabbit out of a hat
Never could have imagined that
Precision of a magician
Focus on hocus pocus
Merlin will rise again

Scientists along the radius
Of the round table
Realists among the populous
Of our bound fable

Merlin to the rescue again
Save us from us
Merlin our savior begin
Balance injustice
Balance in justice

LYRICS
Hey you
Snap to
It’s time to get up
Got to move
Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe know
Make no mistake
When the levee breaks
You’ve got to move
The levee broke today
We have no place to stay
Mountain man left his home
Weep and moan

Hey you
Snap to
It’s time to get up
Got to move
Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe know
Make no mistake
When the levee breaks
You’ve got to move
The levee broke
Mama you got to move
Ain’t no joke
The levee broke
Behooves to move

All last night
I ran from the levee and moaned
Mean ole levee mowed down my home
All last night
You can cry with all your might
Won’t do you no good… only running could

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The last thing will be the first thing
The start of something new
The ending of the ending
As beginning I never knew
… how time flew
The best of the best
Just keeps getting better
Book, chapter, verse
Down to the letter
The reality of living history
Now you’ve told your story
That story has been told
That story has grown old
(End of age… turn the page)

The next thing will be a new thing
In time the future passed
the ending of the ending
We knew it couldn’t last
… time went past
The best of the best
Just keeps getting better
Book, chapter, verse
Down to the letter
The reality of living history
Now you’ve told your story
That story has been told
That story has grown old
(End of age… turn the page)

What do you think about tomorrow
Will it bring laughter or sorrow?
Well I suppose what you chose

Now that tomorrow’s today
Would you say things will go our way?
Well I suppose what you chose
Was to choose

Sure enough today fades to yesterday
How well did your dreams voice your choice?
Well I suppose what you chose
Was to choose
Uplifting blue
