LYRICS
Have you ever seen this?
No, nothing exactly like this
An anomaly of society, see?
Have you ever seen that?
No, nothing exactly like that
An anomaly of society, see?
Have you ever seen this
That or the other thing?
I find it most interesting
Don’t know what to call it
Except for what it is
Exactly what this this is

LYRICS
What a time to pull the perfect crime?
You really think so?
What a time to pull the perfect crime…
No. I vote no.
The higher they are
The farther the fall
The bigger they are
The harder the fall
The tall fall
Fat Cat splat

Time is upon for the perfect con?
You really think so?
You’ve gone wrong with the perfect con
I really think so
The higher they are
The farther the fall
The bigger they are
The harder the fall
The tall fall
Fat Cat splat

LYRICS
Who is the fool
That thought it was cool
To challenge a charging bull?
Better guess again
Let the games begin!

Who is the rat
That thought it was fat
To challenge a raging cat?
Better guess again
Let the games begin!

Now, which monkey
Thought it was funky
To challenge a stubborn donkey?
[Do you think
You can make him drink?]
Better guess again
Let the games begin!

LYRICS
I’m loving living the moments
As they fly by-and-bye
I’m learning the does and don’ts
The courage to ask, “But, why?”

Taking it in the best I can
At least, I hope I am

I’ve been ’round long enough
To know the what’s what’s tough
I’m learning the does and don’ts
The courage to ask, “But, why?”

Taking it in the best I can
At least, I hope I am

I’m living loving the moments
Watch ’em fly by-and-bye
I’m learning the does and don’ts
The courage to ask, “But, why?”

Taking it in the best I can
At least, I hope I am

LYRICS
I wonder where the past times go
A question I’m dying to know
All of the do/due
Turns into residue

I wonder where history is kept
All the widows’ tears that are wept
All of the do/due
Turns into residue

I wonder who earns the time spent
Where our lives and memories went
All of the do/due
Turns into residue

I wonder where the past times go
A question I’m dying to know
All of the dues
Turn into residue

LYRICS
One man’s unique
Is an others freak
The rumor mill needs a tweak
One man’s unique
Is an others freak
To find the truth, one must seek
To be unique not another freak

One man’s unique
Is an others freak
Still water is running deep
One man’s unique
Is an others freak
To find the truth, one must seek
To be unique not another freak

One man’s unique
Is an others freak
What you sow you will reap
One man’s unique
Is an others freak
To find the truth, one must seek
To be unique not another freak

One man’s unique
Is an others freak
Finger in the dyke stops a leak
One man’s unique
Is an others freak
To find the truth, one must seek
To be unique not another freak

One man’s unique
Is an others freak
Earth inherited by the meek
One man’s unique
Is an others freak
To find the truth, one must seek
To be unique not another freak

LYRICS
Can’t see a fire
There’s too much smoke
Can’t be that dire
Must be a joke
Call me a liar
After you choke
Our situation
Screams for mitigation
Sound the harm alarm

Can’t see a tree
Through the forest
Is it just me
Give it a rest
How can that be
Can you attest?
Our situation
Screams for mitigation
Sound the harm alarm

Are your hands aware?

LYRICS
I’ll never get out alive
Comes as no surprise
But, when this body goes
… who knows?
When first out the door
Are my toes
Feet first
The last thing… my nose

Yes, I’ve come to realize
Yes, everybody dies
But, when this body goes
… who knows?
When first out the door
Are my toes
Feet first
The last thing… my nose

In “The End” I clearly hear it
Choir of angels with my spirit
Rise above
In the ether of love
To be
Heavenly

LYRICS
How lucky to be a human being
When I think of what I could have been
Could have been a worm
Doing a squirm
In the dirt
(down, down, down in the dirt)
Could have been viral
A downward spiral
Pain and hurt
Yeah, I could have been viral
Ill and vile
Puss or wart

How lucky to be a human being
When I think of what I could have been
Could have been an ant
Or poisonous plant
In the dirt
(down, down, down in the dirt… diggin’)
Tropical disease
A cough and sneeze
Pain and hurt
How lucky to be a human being
When I think of what I could have been
Yeah, I could have been… hurtin’

LYRICS
Every time I slow down
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

A civilized civilization
Mere figment of imagination
The humane in humanity
Sure hope you ain’t left me

Every time I have found
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

A civilized civilization
Mere figment of imagination
The humane in humanity
Sure hope you ain’t left me

Every time I look around
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

Every time still astounds
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”
