LYRICS
There goes someone with too much cash
Over concerned with how to make it last
Worry away the best of their days
Worry away in so many ways
If you worry beyond today
Maybe you’ve too much any way?

There goes someone with too much time
Over concerned with “me, my, my, mine”
Chorus

There goes someone with too much freedom
Over concerned terrorists will come
Chorus

There goes someone with too much conceit
Under constant threat of defeat
Chorus

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords
F#m A
E C A

A song about greed and overabundance. Written in Blue Bell, Montgomery County, PA about the population of Blue Bell. It’s always interesting to me when playing out… that the wealthiest zip codes are home to the most selfish people.

A live 1-track stereo recording.

LYRICS
There must be a reason
No matter the season
You bring out the worst in me
There must be a reason
No matter the season
Justice comes eventually

And by chance
When the scales balance
I’m around to see
Eventually be
Inevitability to reality

There must be a reason
No matter the season
The pig is ripe on the vine
There must be a reason
No matter the season
Humans turn to swine

And by chance
When the scales balance
I’m around to see
Eventually be
Inevitability to reality

LYRICS
You and your voodoo
You and your voodoo do what you do
The more you change the more you’re the same
You’re going insane
You and your voodoo

Without concern
When will you learn
You don’t care about me
When do you think you’ll see
You and your voodoo
You and your voodoo
Do what you do

The more you change
The more you stay the same
The more you change
The more convinced I am
You’re going insane
You and your voodoo

The more your change
The more you rearrange
The more you change
The more insane
You’re insane
You went insane
You went off the tracks
You don’t know fiction from facts
You and your voodoo
You and your voodoo
you do what you do

The more you change
The more you rearrange
The more you change
The more insane
You and your voodoo
You and your voodoo
You do what you do

The more you change
The more you rearrange
The more you change
The more insane
You and your voodoo
You and your voodoo
You do what you do

This is the part we talk about the change
Postpartum depression
Ya I am
I learned my lesson
The more you changed
The more you rearranged
The more you changed
The more insane
You went insane
You went crazy on me
You and your voodoo
You and your voodoo
You do what you do

LYRICS
I was…
Naked. Tied-up.
Bound and gagged
In the back of your mother’s station wagon
Hang-on
Lights are flashing
The spot light is on
Officer says, “What’s going on?”

Now, you’ve changed
How you’ve changed
Your mind rearranged
(You’re) estranged

Oh, no
She went psycho
Joined the Puritan Police
Now, I need a release

Oh, let my daughter go
’cause you know
You went psycho

You use to be some fun
But, now
People run!

You ain’t no superhero
With that super, super ego
No. No. No.

Janet, try your switch
’cause less is on

LYRICS
Are you afraid to open your door
See people hurting like never before
Are you afraid to answer the phone
Hear the moan become a constant drone

Are you afraid to show your face
Tired of being made a public disgrace
Are you afraid to communicate
The wrong way on a one-way
Bombarded with hate, hate, thate

Then, please don’t hesitate
To call on God. Let Her mediate.

The place is here. The time is now.
Believe She’ll hear… She does somehow

God’s good grace. The mercy upon you.
Redeem your scene to heavenly… see!

Why not fear not?
