LYRICS
Do you believe in damsels in distress
Would you try to rescue a princess

Do you believe in the Power Of Love
Do you pray for enlightenment from above

Misunderstood dragonhood
Look under the hood
See if all is good

LYRICS
If you think it’s out of reach
Maybe if you stand on your toes
… who knows

If you think you can reach
You will grow
If you think can teach
Then, any which way the wind may blow

If you believe in the search
Matters not the Emperor’s clothes
… expose

LYRICS
When the tide rolls out
May it carry cares away
When it rolls back in
May you start new again

When the tide rolls out
May it ferry (fairy) you away
When it rolls back in
Well… may your youth return

Let the seagull fly
Across the sky
Let you imagination… occupy

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Where do you find beauty?
Is it in your comfort?
If you seek you must confront,
The demons in your body

Chorus
What the heck…
I see it in the crape of your neck
Down the small of your back
… and back
Are you sensitive behind your knee
… let’s see
Can I find your soul
In your sole?

Bathing in the light
Basking at the sight
How do I find beauty
Let me count the ways
With this view that I see
We could be here for days

Chorus

LYRICS
I can’t see clear
Until I’m outta here

’till the shackles are gone
I can’t go wrong
Free of the ball and chain
Before I can roam again

Where do we go from here

I can see your fence
And, I can see past
To a fence past tense
And, we’re free at last

We can see clear
To a place outta here
We can be free
There’s a place… it can be!

LYRICS
So, this is class warfare
I was totally unaware

People sleeping in the streets
You call this natural?
People sleeping in old crates
You say this is normal

Children dieing of starvation
You call this natural?
Part of society in deprivation
… business as usual

So, this is class warfare
I was totally unaware

LYRICS
Maybe for you it’s numbers
Maybe for you it’s the day of the week
The month or the day
Or the year
The year of the snake
The year of the monkey
Maybe you can see sound
Chromesthesia

Chromesthesia

What if I could hear what you could see
What if you could see what I could hear
Well, we can
And, it’s coming in clear
Just got to tap into the part of the brain
Not insane at the membrane

You can see what you can hear
Chromesthesia

Maybe you’ve got to do a spinal tap
Or some sort-of Buddhist chant
Or maybe you can connect
Just like that

’cause you can see what I hear
And, it’s coming in clear
Sometimes like lines
Other times like fireworks
Sometimes like lines
No one is quite sure how it works
Chromesthesia

Neurological miracle

Here we go
Like a rainbow

LYRICS
They say, they say
We’re out of the Golden Age
We’re past the Uranium Age
We’ve entered the Plutonium Age

Say, say what do you say?

Even after generation upon generation upon generation
Upon sage upon sage upon sage
We rolled out of the Golden age

“You are now leaving the Golden Age”
How will you ever manage?

They say we’re leaving the Golden Age
Going past the Uranium Age
Must be in the Plutonium Age
A nuclear nightmare
Stay clear

I guess we’ve left the Golden Age… left it far behind
The how to be kind kind
The kind of kind that would mind
Do you find that you mind
All the things that society brings

I guess we’ve left the Golden Age
Entering the time of severe rage
Let our animal instincts think
And, we don’t mind not being kind

Acting like a mean old junk yard dog
Acting like a hog
Acting like a junk yard dog
Howling at the moon
None too soon, we’ll be left howling at the moon

They say we’ve left the Golden Age
At the nucleus, we’ve turned nuclear
Exactly as we did fear
Time to wear military gear
Now, your task
Get a gas mask
They’ll be dropping bombs
Sending you flying to your tomb

Don’t want that coming too soon
Just howling at the moon

Thank you for putting me here, my Lord
For that I am

Thank you for putting me here, my Lord
So, I can hear, and I can testify

You come into life
As though you’re here to stay
I’m sorry to tell you
It’s just not that way

Chorus
Enjoy each day
As if it’s your last
’cause every lifetime is sure to pass

Conquer our strife
Keep evil at bay
The fortune to tell you
You’re found the right way

Come into the light
As if you want to play
I’m happy to tell you
It’ll turn the sky blue… from the darkest of grey

LYRICS
You can believe in what you want to believe in
As long as your believe
Or else you’ll be *it*
A hypocrite

Do you have faith in what you believe
Then you’d better believe
You better believe in what you believe
Or that’s it
You’re the hypocrite

Do you want to believe in yourself
Then, go right ahead
As long as you believe in what you believe
Do you want to believe in God Almighty above
Then, go ahead
As long as you believe in what you believe
’cause there is this universal love
As long as you believe

Whether you want to believe it’s God above
Or, you believe it’s in your heart
As long as you start
Believe in what you believe

Let’s believe
We can relieve
The pain and suffering
Letting the love in
If you believe

You can believe in what you want to believe in
As long as your believe
We can believe if you believe
In the power of love

LYRICS
Jesus vampire…
Upon your empire?

Somewhere along the line
People thought it would be just fine
To claim it as their own
(The Martyr’s throne)

Like the Pope’s empire
Built on Jesus The Vampire

Once you’re a vampire
You can’t retire

Nails through the hands and feet
Step right this way and get your seat
Get your fill on Calvary Hill

A vampire Jesus just for us
Christ the Lord has risen today
Hallelujah
Hell-elujah

Higher!
Take us higher
Jesus vampire
Show us the glory of all
Tell us the story
Of the good
And, how we could and should

Jesus vampire
Take us higher

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Em Em7 Em7(11) A

The song was inspired by a conversation with my son, the vampire slayer, on Good Friday.

Daniel 12

New International Version (NIV)
The End Times

12 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. 2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.

John 2:22
When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

“Vampire Definition — Among the Romani people, mullo (literally one who is dead) are believed to return from the dead….”

LYRICS
That would be tragic
If you fell victim to black magic

“From there I shall come to judge the quick…
And, the dead.”

Lively up yourself
Don’t be no dread

That would be tragic
If you fell victim to black magic

For you mental health
Don’t cast a spell on yourself

That would be tragic
If you fell victim to black magic

You are my sunshine
The only sunshine
Bring love and feeling fine

That would be tragic
If you fell victim to black magic

Abracadabra the white magic
Cure the ill… heal the sick

LYRICS
Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you say mayhem?

I don’t know that’s who I am

Excuse me, Ma’am
Were you addressing me
If so, I’ll try to see

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you say mayhem?
I didn’t ever want to be the master
Of what you would consider disaster

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you say mayhem?
Would you mind repeating it again

Do you want to play the ham
Then, say it again — mayhem!

You thought the pork was all &^%$ed
You ain’t see nothing
Go tell your Gram

Avoiding the P.M.
For the A.M.
Cause that’s where I am
That’s where we are
Out under the stars

Excuse me, Ma’am
Did you want mayhem?

That’s not who I am

I try, try, try
To make sense of all humanity
I try… how I try
But, if it falls on deaf ears
Then that’s exactly what you feared

Mayhem Ma’am Part 2.mp3
