LYRICS
I am… caught up in… the space-time continuum
Four dimensional sensational
For dimensional sensation realization
I am
Space-time continuum
I am in time
I’m in time
Time’s role is fourth dimensional
Not that unusual
The I I ignite traveling at the speed of light
I know I’m in the flow of the space-time continuum. I am.
Where and when we’re all four dimensional

LYRICS
Though I may appear sloppy
I’m happy
And if you pull back, you just might see
The anomaly of me
Through chaos theory
If you’re in the hurricane, you can’t see the eye
But, when you pull back, you can eye I
You can see me
Unordered system that I am
Or may appear to be
Relatively, it’s up to you and your point-of-view
Nevertheless, your relativity has little impact on reality. Really.
So, you see
Chaos theory
Insane to deny the eye of a hurricane
Insane to deny the I of my hurricane
Us is chaos
LYRICS
Does anybody know if this is it?
The decision of the ribbon
The decision of the rhythm
Ribbin’
Like string theory
Doesn’t have to be such a mystery
Just use your mind’s eye… I
Decypher the cypher in the sky
The decision of the ribbon
Rubbing the ribbon
More like how a butterfly flaps it’s wings
The resulting things
Chaos theory
The decision of the ribbon
The decision of the rhythm
In the chaos theory

LYRICS
Oh noooooo!
OONO
The damage age damage
Age damage Damn age
The damage of age
Oh nooooooooooo!
OONO
Worse than a Yoko to the Beatles
Oh, no
One two many free radical for us all
Oh, no
One too many free radical for us all
The dismay of decay
Don’t want to fade away
Fade away
Worse than a larva attack of beetles
Snakeoil salesman are just weasels
Damn us from the animal kingdom
Longevity travesty of me
… and, it’s getting old
Foretold
… getting old
Songwriting And Recording
ABOUT THIS SONG
The free radical theory of aging (FRTA) states that organisms age because cells accumulate free radical damage over time. A free radical is any atom or molecule that has a single unpaired electron in an outer shell. Strictly speaking, the free radical theory is only concerned with free radicals such as superoxide ( O2– ), but it has since been expanded to encompass oxidative damage from other reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), or peroxynitrite (OONO–)

LYRICS
Polar vortex, clipper or nor’ easter
Take it as another kick to the keister
Or consider the splendor of the impending gleam
Know what I mean?
Snow — what I mean
Veil the frail in fractal white crystal
As to the blind man’s Braille
The third eye’s sail
See it all
LYRICS
Water dripping from a faucet
Try to dodge the raindrops without getting wet
Unordered as the system may appear to be
It’s only because you’re too close to see clearly
Shark Swimming in the Streets of Margate, NJ During Hurricane Sandy
LYRICS
The wind does howl
To the pour of rain’s growl
Poor, poor, poor visibility (Can’t you see, you can’t see?)
Ohhhh… I thought the day I’d never see
Full moon. High tide.
You’ve got no place left to hide
“Cryin’ won’t help you, prayin’ won’t do you no good”
You should’ve run, should’ve run just as fast as you could
Full moon. High tide.
Worst time to make landfall
Full moon. High tide.
It’s a wonder if there’s anything left at all
ABOUT THE SONG Music by Eric, Carpenter John and Daniel; written and recorded as an impromptu blues jam as we waited for the Hurricane to arrive; Norristown, PA on October 28, 2012. Lyrics by Daniel; written and recorded inside the truck as Hurricane Sandy was making landfall; West Chester, PA on October 29, 2012.
“Cryin’ won’t help you, prayin’ won’t do you no good”

Shark Swimming in the Streets of Margate, NJ During Hurricane Sandy
The science of a high tide, full moon and landfall of a hurricane —
Higher-than-normal tides — tied to a full moon — have added to Hurricane Sandy’s coastal flooding threat.
As you might expect the explanation is a matter of simple astronomy, not any kind of lunacy associated in folklore with a full moon.
“It’s not the moon’s phase that matters, but the position,” says astronomer Phil Plait on his Bad Astronomy website.
During a full moon, the moon is essentially lined up on the opposite side of the Earth from the sun (this is what allows the near surface of the moon to be illuminated in its full splendor) and the gravitational tug of war between those two intensifies at this time, resulting in higher tides.
This kind of alignment of astronomical objects is called a syzygy (SIH-zhih-jhee) and sailors have understood the effect for centuries. So, for Hurricane Sandy, the higher-than-normal tides that threaten to add to an 11-foot storm surge feared for lower Manhattan are simply a matter of bad timing. — USA Today

Ed called… and left a message (he has experience with the dead, is a member of the Family):
He has already attempted to contacted with “the bear” on other matters… and this type of music sounds like it is right up his alley.
He suggests we should also try to get with the bear, too.

I ask, “the bear is the grateful dead sound guy that kind-of invented the modern PA? right?”
Wally added:
His real name – Owsley Stanley
but yes, helped conceive and implement the the dead’s early sound and the infamous “wall of sound” (’74-’76)
75 tons of equipment

Eric chimed in:
I’m going to research information about the the specific musical note of Bb (B flat).
It is of great significance. Exploding stars, musical waves, groovey.
Peter replied:
Numbers and beats–which also affect pitch, but ultimately it is rhythm. the area of four dimensional music must manifest in rhythm as it relates to time. pitch is just a quality of rhythm. the act of a phenomenon in space time and finding a new paradigm in space time, that is the area to attack! computers can help, but it is better to apply this to live experience.
