LYRICS
We’re moving… moving into the light
It feels right
We’re moving… moving into the light
It’s alright

No sense trying to fight the fight
Why go to war against war
No sense trying to slight with might
Might just find Self dead on the floor
Might as well banish all the blight
Can’t imagine life as a bore
Making others’ days bright with insight
Taking off on a spiritual tour

A C A

A 6-track stereo recording made in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States of America.

LYRICS
If we all stand and dance
We might all stand a chance

You might think you can sit in your seat
And, dance
Well, if you do
And, you can sit and through a fit
That’s you
But, if we all stand and dance
We might stand a chance

As the times get tougher and tougher and rougher and rougher
You might even call it ugly
There’s a light you can see
Come with me
And, make me we
We’ll dance
Because if we all stand and dance
We might stand a chance

Dance is a spiritual romance
It can take us higher
Love is in the dance
There’s romance in the dance
If we all stand and dance
We might stand a chance

We can get together with our energy
And, you and me become we

We’ve only got so much time on this Earth
From when you’re dead
Back to the time of your birth
If you want to make those days pay
And, be on your merry way
If we all stand and dance
We might all stand a chance

What do you say we pick this up a little bit maestro?

(up the tempo)

LYRICS
As you are going through your day-to-day
Are you having fun along the way?

If you’re feeling miserable and mean
I’m hoping I can help you come clean
If you’re having trouble all the time
Hoping that you get to find a rhyme
That will help you on your merry way
Be on your merry way

As you’re going through your day-to-day
Are you having fun along the way
For I’m just here to help you say O.K.
Hope you can be on your merry way

As you are going through your day-to-day
Are you having fun along the way?

LYRICS
I confess the world is a mess
Come on
Join the slugfest

We can do our best
To take the high road
We can do our best
To lighten the load

Come on
Join the slugfest

Might as well join the slugfest
The world is a mess
We can do our best
To take it to a better place
To make it a better place…
Before we eclipse our race

If you’re able please keep pace
Well, we gotta win this race
It’s more like a relay
Than an individual event
So, we need that spirit
We need to be a team
If we’re gonna glean
The winner’s circle
If we’re gonna be
On the podium
Gotta be the best I can
Gotta be the best I am

The best I.M. (individual medley)

Come join in the slugfest
We can make it the best
Once we think of it
A soul mosh pit
Join in the slugfest
We’ll do our best
To reach a crest
Through the trough

LYRICS
Let’s get silly and see what happens

Let’s get silly
Really silly
Let’s get silly and see what happens

And, I don’t mean stupid
And, I don’t mean ignorant
I mean
Let’s get silly and see what happens
Childlike
Without preconceived notions
Let’s make a motion
That’s right
Alright?

Let’s get silly and see what happens

Where we can stay up all night
Alright?

LYRICS
Driving down the road, I saw a bumper sticker
Reading, “If you could ask God one question, what would it be?”

I couldn’t ‘ve thunk much quicker
Before it occurred to me —
Why?

The gauntlet of life
May you be the light
Shinning bright
So rife
Ever evolving cycles
Letting us grow together
Bugle of Gabriel
All things getting better

I use to be the image of an ape, too
… just like you
We’ve traveled through
To a condition of raised vibration

An eye on why I?

Why? .mp3
