LYRICS
Think it’s getting on getting on
Getting along
Watching us roll away
Has it been too long to long
Getting along
Living… loving on our way
It feels it’s right
It’s right
It’s right on
Giving way to way
Along the way

LYRICS
Which way is up
Which way is down
Depends on if
Your plant’s round
Spinning round
Relative to the sun
An annual run
At the very least
Where west meets east
At the very best
Where east meets west
As our up and down spins around
Spinning round
On our axis
This is
In our orbit
That’s it

LYRICS
Did you wonder what happened to the contrails in the sky
Ever since the virus people are afraid to fly
After all…
Who wants to die?
Did you wonder what happened in all those days gone by
Ever since the virus people forget exactly why
After all…
Who wants to die?
Did you wonder what happened to all the live music
Ever since the virus people don’t want to get sick
After all…
Who wants to die?

Do you know
We’re still the Nazis’ killjoy
Let them know

What ever happened to justice
This just in
More to this than just us

LYRICS
Greed for cash
Jewels then dash
Lust of fuss
Fools won’t hush
Hush now baby don’t you lie
Shut the hole for your pie
Try to open up an eye
Let go of, “Me, my, I”
Palm money
Not funny
Nor sunny
Ain’t no honey
Hush now baby don’t you lie
Shut the hole for your pie
Try to open up an eye
Let go of, “Me, my, I”

… no….
… was not expecting that
The alarm clock is ringing
Time to get up and go to school
Smell the coffee! Birds are singing,
“Stop playing the fool”

Get out of bed and go to school
Wake up and smell the coffee! Try!
Stop playing the fool

LYRICS
I’m not alone on this… am I?
All this talk, talk, talk — do or die
Have to shake my head and ask why
If you don’t like your birth on Earth
Don’t blame it on your fellow earthlings
Why not see what good will will bring
(Goodwill brings)
I’m not alone on this… am I?
When it comes to walk the walk — bye
Have to hang my head and ask why
(Cry)
If you don’t like your birth on Earth
Don’t blame it on your fellow earthlings
Why not see what good will will bring
(Goodwill brings)

Yellow and blue
Got together to…
Change their color
The allure of something more
As their scene turned to green
Do you know what it means?
Little did they know
Makes everybody go
Red and blue
Got together to…
Change their color
The allure of something more
Double down to deep purple
A royal popped bubble
Little did they know
Of the cosmic flow
