Oncoming Traffic.mp3

LYRICS
If your ball should roll out onto the road
Before you run out, watch for the oncoming load

When you run out into traffic
It could end up tragic
Not the story you want told
“Tragic.. died before he was old.”

Wonder who built the roads anyway?
Now they just seem in the way
Of our progress in being a civilized civilization
On that superhighway of life
A bug’s life is strife
Being shattered on the windshield
’cause that oncoming load would not yield

My life became a mess
My innards on the interstate

Stop. Look. And, listen.

Before you run out on the road, look out for that oncoming load

Oh, %^&*!
Here comes a truck
Do you know if I can duck?

With a giant leap of faith we can overcome that oncoming freight

There’s no sense in crying
Over yesterday
Make thunder and lightning
Show us the way

Move into the light

LYRICS
Look deep inside
Have I the courage to ride?

Envision a creature
Half woman… half horse
A significant feature —
Majestic wings
To take flight… of course
The prophecy She brings

Centaur: God sent her

Heard the wings huge whirr
So fast as to blur
Descending from heaven
Calming the heathen

Put an end to war,
Centaur

Envision a creature
(Heaven sent, for sure)
Intelligent brain
Glowing mane
No chance to tame
Sent from the Main

Look deep inside…
I have the courage to ride!

LYRICS
Gonna move along
Without any trace or track
If I don’t leave a track
Can’t backtrack
Gotta move ahead
No sense rehashing everything we said

Gonna roll down the road
Gonna roll this old soul

This rolling stone will gather no moss
Not gonna leave destiny to the ole coin toss

Gotta take charge of your destiny
I mean, after all… it’s all about *me*… my destiny
Gotta set yourself free
Break out of those chains
Cut the losses for gains

Heading down the tracks
Leaving no tracks
No backtracks
Moving ahead
No rehash of what’s been said
Gonna move along
To a traveling song

The blowing wind
Of the fiercest storm
Well, be forewarned
I’m coming at you like a freight train
Heading at ya
There’s no backtrack

LYRICS
There’s a place below absolute zero you can go
Where the evil spirits can’t go… the temperature is too low

A place where freewill will
And, the evil spirits distill

Someplace low, low, low, low, low
Where the evil spirits can’t go
They can’t go

Distill the evil spirits (and, they fear it.)
The cream of the crop will rise to the top

If you can seek out… find out about
A place that is low
So low the evil spirits can’t go

LYRICS
There was a protracted, aggravated dry spell
About the only song written was “Oh, Well“, well
Once there was a length of time
When nothing would rhyme

Aggravatingly long dry spell

Needed a diving rod
For some spiritual inspiration
Something from God…
An Act Of God
So, we could get some H2O penetration

As long as it’s the highway

I’ve been listening to you all night and day
The only thing I’ve got to say…

Do you call for the fall?

LYRICS
Said, the cat to the mouse,
“The race is on”
You know the race is on
Run!

The race is on

You know the race is on
When you hear the starting gun
The race is on
It’s time to run

Said, the dog to the cat,
“The race is on…
Didn’t you hear the starting gun?
Come on and run ’cause the race is on”

You know the race is on
When you hear the starting gun
Come on and run

Don’t hesitate as we commence the chase

Said, the spider to the fly,
“The race is on…
Go on and run,
The sticky web that I weave
Makes it hard to leave.”

Come on the race is on

1, 2… 1, 2 ready go

They’re off!
The race is on

You better run
Before the setting sun

Didn’t you hear the starting gun?
It’s in my heart to give you a little head start

Last chance

If you knew this was your last chance
Would you take the opportunity to dance?
If you knew this was the last dance
Would you take the opportunity
Would you take the chance?

Let’s not let the opportunity lapse
Let’s not let all our future drain into the past
Let’s take the opportunity to dance

Dance!

Dance yourself right out of those pants
Dance
Forget about the politicians and their rants
Forget about all that silly nonsense
Come on and dance

What if you knew this was your last chance
Last chance
Last dance
Last call
For ya’ll to dance?

LYRICS
Let’s get in sync

A jazz experimental ditty
Try to get into some spiritual possibility
In this time, in this day, in this age
When you want to turn the page
And get a way from history
Because that’s not my story
I might be a product of my genes
I might be a product of my environment
I’m not a product of the obscene
I’ve come to appreciated what life means

If you feel like your downtrodden… down beat…
Of the old narrate
If you can’t figure out what the hell you’re doing here
When this is heaven
Well, maybe you haven’t been forgiven
Or, maybe you haven’t been enlightened
It’s not too late

Whenever things get hard…
When you think it’s hard
Of course it might depend on your tissue
Your issue
’cause you could be soft inside
The hardened shell is your own hell

It could be just as well
Come out of that shell
With that soft underbelly
Crawl out… it’ll be funny
Come to see
Enlightenment
And, that’s excitement
That’s how you create a thrill
So that people will chill
Create a thrill
And get rid of ill-will

LYRICS
Prelude (recorded in the soundcheck)
What if I’ve just been the victim of the world’s greatest con
What if I’m just a victim of everything that’s gone wrong
And, we all bleed
When one of us is bleeding, we concede to bleed.

The Song
Have I just been the victim of the world’s greatest con?
All these people and politicians tell me nothing’s gone wrong?
That’s the wrong song!

Try to convince me
We’re not responsible?
Yes, you try to convince me
That we’re not responsible?
That’s most irresponsible

We’re responsible for all this trash
We’re responsible for all this mess
We’re responsible for all pollution
We’re responsible for institution
De-civilization

Maybe it’s time
We woke up and smell the coffee
Can you smell the coffee
Or, is it just me?

We’ve all got something wrong going on
Well, folks…
Look behind that curtain
It’s a hoax
The Wizard is you
Now, what’cha gonna do?

Have we just victimized ourselves of the greatest con
It’s all around
How it went wrong is now in song

Is it just me or do we have to take responsibility?

Since your time is getting cut short

Where will they fall
Deaf or dumb
Will they hear the call?

Did their brains all stall?

Lets get getting while the going is good
Livin’ in the moment… just a bit
Never the regret of would, could, should
