LYRICS
As a matter of fact
I just got back
None too soon from the moon
’cause while I was away
Came to the day
… well…
The freezing over of hell
What can I say
Never thought I’d see it this way

Not to be outdone
Had to dash n’ run
Just got back from the sun
’cause while I was away
Came to the day
… well…
The freezing over of hell
What can I say
Never thought I’d see it this way

LYRICS
What are the odds of winning the lottery
More likely to get a shark bite
What are the chances for long lasting romances
More likely to end in a fight
What good’s red or black when it lands on green
Any idea what it’ll mean
Rolling the dice
May I roll twice?
Thrice
What the #uck
One more for good luck?
[Keep rolling, rolling, rolling…
Strolling
Out-of-controlling]

LYRICS
Do I wanna be a space age cowboy?
Think I’d rather be an indigenous genius
Doubting if the conqueror quest is best
Never dormant taking in the moment

Forego the notion of autocrat’s toy?
Think I’d rather be an indigenous genius
Doubting if the conqueror quest is best
Never dormant taking in the moment

Do I wanna be a geriatric playboy?
Think I’d rather be an indigenous genius
Doubting if the conqueror quest is best
Never dormant taking in the moment

LYRICS
Think of something real quick
’cause it’s on with the show
They won’t know
What you don’t know
… just go with the flow

Think of something on-the-fly
Fly by the seat of your pants
It’s up to you
Do or die
Let’s see what you soul grants
[The crowd chants]

LYRICS
It’s getting late
Way past twelve-thirty
The morning wait
Till the dawn gets dirty
It’s getting late
The morning wait
Till the dawn gets down and dirty
Slipping into something translucent
Wondering where time went
Another month of rent
Slipping into something translucent
Wondering where the time went
Mortgage payment sent
Pay the dues
Gathering clues
Come of age
Be the sage
Understanding
Time spent

LYRICS
It’s starting to come back, again
The happened happens, again
The same ‘ole same ‘ole
Trying your soul
You’re the China shop
They’re the raging bull
Over-the-top
Blow your stack
Full of bull
And, all that whack
Awake to the same mistake
Over and over, again
Ground Hog Day
Rolling over the log
The same ‘ole

LYRICS
Daily grind
Down in the grime
Spending time
No reason
No rhyme
Look up to see me
Distantly
What goes around
Comes around
Sometime
In the meantime
Onside of the line
Feels fine
Outside the box
No cages
No locks
Look up to see free
Intensely

LYRICS
Are the colors muted to you
Or is vibrance seeping through
Through the fog, the clog, the cloud
Poppin’ n’ screaming outloud
Applaud?
… (pause)…
Applause
Amplifies the hues
See the sight
From the brightest blues
To deep, deep midnight
Intensifies my eyes
The bling makes it sing
To a mighty fine shine
Bestow
Know the rainbow
Is a light years so far from here
Behaves as rays and waves
Seam of particle and beam
Casting a shadow of what we know

LYRICS
They say you are what you eat
So why not be a treat?
They say grasp the victory
From the jaws of defeat
New history
Victory
Try to fly…
Fly with eagle’s wings
Then, on high…
Hear your universe sing

To be or not to be
Why such a mystery?
Blank page of your story
Scribe your tribe’s victory
New history
Victory
Try to fly…
Fly with eagle’s wings
Then, on high…
Hear your universe sing
