The impact of the hit is getting stranger by the minute
By the second every day in every way
Stranger by the minute

Just like that…
Sudden impact

LYRICS
That wind is bone chillin’
Until we acknowledge our killin’
Six feet under is fillin’

The price we pay for the dues we owe
Has run out of generations to bestow
What were we thinkin’… I dunno
Remember us… with no one left to know?

bookmark_borderEdumacation

LYRICS
Forget about subsidizing
… corn… or oil exploration
Realizing…
I yearn… for some real education
Tired of paying for the ignoramus
Hard to ignore the value in us
(instrumental interlude) Hey, Ignoramus!
Edumacation benefits all of us (Hey, Ignoramus! Edumacation — benefit to us. Come out of the ignorant fit… Edumacation = benefit)

“We don’t need no education”
Double negative reaction
When it’s obvious ya do
And, then sum, too
What you say just doesn’t add up
Is it half empty? What’s in your cup?

What about subsidizing
Are you realizing
The gain from an asset
The cost of an ass, yet…
And, lying… can’t you see the liability of your disability
Why promote being ignorant
Or being indifferent
To enlightenment

Nooooo, Ignoramus please don’t ignore us

After what you’ve said, I wonder what’s in your head?
How can you have any learning if you don’t know meet from meat?

LYRICS
The Queen of the make-believe
Going to the gossip garbage dump
To see what she can retrieve
Talk about the cold-shoulder
She’s giving me the freeze

The Queen of the make-believe
Heading to the garbage dump to see what she can retrieve

Pick up some dirt
With the intention to hurt
Got some balls up her skirt
The Queen of the make-believe

Swimming in the sleaze
Talk about a cold-shoulder
It’s a deep freeze
Get’s her kicks out of making up $hit

Guess we’re in that age
When there’s no turning the page
You’d think those in favor of free speech
Would have some sort-of outrage
Let the truth shine in
Maybe we can begin
To have a rational conversation
About a prosperous civilization

The Queen of the make-believe
Going to the gossip garbage dump
To see what she can retrieve

LYRICS
I scream
As my eyes scream
The ice cream has left the cone alone
Toppled to the concrete
Left with none to eat

If your lollipop got covered in lint
Here’s a lil’ housekeeping hint
Don’t let your meat loaf
Ending up as a meatloaf oaf

Could leave a bad taste in your mouth
Like a racist from the old south

If you can’t have your cake and eat it too
Maybe the whole world ain’t just about you

Just when I’m starting to think
I’ve got the ling for ink
I start to begin
Letting the inkling
Commencing settling
The inkling sets in

It’s when I do have a clue
A dash of wit… I get it
No need for gossip or a hissy fit

LYRICS
Since your inevitable ending is clear
Hold life dear
Though your inevitable ending is clear
Have no fear

The credible evitable is sensible
The unavoidable — inevitable
Even though death is certain
’till my final curtain, I am able

Will your soul remain stable or be left as fable?

LYRICS
Jesus!
Oh, my God
(ooops)
Oh, oh… how odd
To claim you as my God. My God!
We won’t be one ’till I’m done?
Guess it won’t be ’till I’m dead
That being said
Hope I haven’t made my bed
Gotta lie in it
Gotta die in it
Forgive me Lord
For I have sinned
Sinned again, again, again
What’s been has been
Has been
Now I’d love to start again
Love love to start again
Love Love to start again
