LYRICS
You saw it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Your conscience took the dare
You saw it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Are your hands aware?

You heard it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Your conscience took the dare
You saw it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Are your hands aware?

You touched it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Your conscience took the dare
You saw it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Are your hands aware?

You smelled it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Your conscience took the dare
You saw it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Are your hands aware?

You tasted it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Your conscience took the dare
You saw it
You want it
Went ahead and grabbed it
Are your hands aware?

bookmark_borderThe Future Is Coming

LYRICS
Well, looky, looky
What have we here
Does appear
To’ve gone queer
What use to be the sound I’d hear
Has faded to disappear

Catch, hooky, hooky
What have we “hear”
Sounds in the ear
New and queer
What use to be the sound round here
Changed gear to reappear

The future is coming
There’s no sense in running
It’s very, very near
The future is coming
There’s no sense in running
In fact, it’s already here

bookmark_borderAfter Life

LYRICS
I’ll never get out alive
Comes as no surprise
But, when this body goes
… who knows?
When first out the door
Are my toes
Feet first
The last thing… my nose

Yes, I’ve come to realize
Yes, everybody dies
But, when this body goes
… who knows?
When first out the door
Are my toes
Feet first
The last thing… my nose

In “The End” I clearly hear it
Choir of angels with my spirit
Rise above
In the ether of love
To be
Heavenly

bookmark_borderLucky Being

LYRICS
How lucky to be a human being
When I think of what I could have been
Could have been a worm
Doing a squirm
In the dirt
(down, down, down in the dirt)
Could have been viral
A downward spiral
Pain and hurt
Yeah, I could have been viral
Ill and vile
Puss or wart

How lucky to be a human being
When I think of what I could have been
Could have been an ant
Or poisonous plant
In the dirt
(down, down, down in the dirt… diggin’)
Tropical disease
A cough and sneeze
Pain and hurt
How lucky to be a human being
When I think of what I could have been
Yeah, I could have been… hurtin’

LYRICS
Every time I slow down
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

A civilized civilization
Mere figment of imagination
The humane in humanity
Sure hope you ain’t left me

Every time I have found
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

A civilized civilization
Mere figment of imagination
The humane in humanity
Sure hope you ain’t left me

Every time I look around
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

Every time still astounds
Angry mob makes the same ‘ole sound
“Kick ’em while they’re down!”

bookmark_borderAlpha Centauri System

LYRICS
Do you want to take a trip
To the next closest star
I hear Alpha Centauri
Really isn’t that far
Do you know why the drip
From a leaky faucet
Is considered chaotic
Not a random event?
Can we get to Alpha Centauri
This century?
Oh, the mysticism
Of an unordered system

Do you have a rocket ship
Or interstellar car
Do you want to let ‘er rip
Holds? None barred
Do you know why the drip
From a leaky faucet
Is considered chaotic
Not a random event?
Can we get to Alpha Centauri
This century?

LYRICS
Whacked up algorithm
Is something missin’
Finding the girl of my dreams
Not as cracked-up as it seems
Sure’d add up better
If numbers would let her
Be kissin’
(Numbers kissin’
Numbers were kissin’
Numbers we’re kissin’)

Whacked up algorithm
Moanin’ and pissin’
Whacked up algorithm
Should’ve gone fishin’
Whacked up algorithm
But I wouldn’t listen
Whacked up algorithm

LYRICS
The ice is melting
From the outside in
The surface is getting
A little thin
Better get movin’

The pan is frying
From the underside out
The surface is getting
A little hot
Better move ’bout

The soul is soaring
From the inside on
Interface is getting
A little beyond
A better dawn

LYRICS
In a blast from the past
The first is last
Castles and knights
Pastels and nights
To night
Tonight
The last served first
Deserved quenched thirst
As they said
We’d be
We are
How #ucking bizarre

In the game of the blame
It’s too late now
Somehow
Apt to adapt
Hassles and fights
Overshadowed by lights
Delights
Insights
In sights

LYRICS
I met a guy who thinks the world is flat
I know, I know… can you imagine that?
Could it be his reality is 2D

I met a gal who thinks chemtrails are fact
I know, I know… can you imagine that?
Could it be her reality is 2D

I met a guy who thinks he’s a fat cat
I know, I know… can you imagine that?
Could it be his reality is 2D
Reality in 2D

I met a gal who pulls rabbits from a hat
I know, I know… can you imagine that?
Could it be her reality is 2D

I met people who are into tit-for-tat
I know, I know… can you imagine that?
Could it be their reality is 2D
Reality in 2D
2D reality… really?

LYRICS
Once experienced
Absorbed the essence
Guess I really know
A child’s innocence
Sure beats arrogance
Can intelligence grow

Brushed experienced
Without the evidence
Guess, but never know

Sure beats ignorance
Can intelligence grow

Gained experience
Is all the difference
Guess you really know
A child’s innocence
Sure beats arrogance and ignorance
Can intelligence grow
