LYRICS
Kingdom Come is coming
Kingdom comes when we’re undone
Kingdom Come, come
We are calling
The End of Days
Will change our ways
How the word plays

Promised Land is landing
Due to lack of understanding
Too damned demanding
We are calling
The End of Days
Will change our ways
How the word plays

Could it even be heaven
May be time to start believin’
Kingdom Come, come again
Soon we’re leaving
The End of Days
Will change our ways
How the word plays

Ahhh…..

LYRICS
In the morning
The sun is rising
What’s surprising
You find it boring
The life you excite
Excites life

Noon drams nigh
The sun is high
Wonder why
You don’t try
The life you excite
Excites life

In the evening
The sun is setting
What’s upsetting
You find it boring
The life you excite
Excites life

The dark of night
Need insight
Be the light
Shinning bright
The life you excite
Excites life

LYRICS
Excuse me Mister
Do you believe in God
Excuse me Madam
I find your question odd
Contemplating
The virtues of “why not?”
“Sure” the answer
Quickly came to thought
Why not give it a thought
Why not?

Excuse me God
Do you find it odd
The world of MadMan
Votes for “God damn”
Contemplating
The virtues of “why not?”
I thought, “Heaven…
Can not be bought”
Why not give it a thought
Why not?

LYRICS
You’re getting warm
The situation’s volatile
Lesson to learn
Weather’s getting hostile
Sure is a fine line
To define the shoreline
And, the air we share
Who knows what’s in there?

You’re getting warmer
Didn’t wanna alarm ya
Make the same mistake
Warm until we bake

Atmosphere’s
So think it can smear
A sea change wish
Less plastic then fish

You’re what’s left of fine
Together let’s make time
Aware that we’re both there
To mend the disrepair

ABOUT THE SONG
This song is about the increased volatility in weather causing extreme weather events.

We are not saying that the Earth’s temperature is just going to rise. In general, as energy is added to a system, the fluctuations in the system increase. So, we expect more storms, more droughts, more wildfires, more floods, more fluctuations of all kinds. What we are saying is that weather conditions will become more volatile due to the impact of humans — Brouse & Mukherjee

The song was also inspired by current events including:

LYRICS
In the beginning
Could the Big Bang
Be heard around the world?
I’ve been told
Sound doesn’t travel in space
Sound doesn’t race through space
So, if so…
At what pace
’cause if there is no sound and no one around
How big can a bang be?
Answer’s troublin’ me
Eluding Man’s history
How big of a bang can it be?

LYRICS
There’s turkey in the dining room
There’s presents under the tree
The 3rd day you’ll rise from the tomb
In a resurrection analogy
(resurrection can you see?)
And before too long you’ll remember this song
Alleluia… all… ahhhhh

It’s turnkey… pick your door
Transcending about to begin
Beyond the door… way more (weigh less)
Pass through the door… way more (or heartless?)
And you can’t go wrong singing this song
Alleluia… all… ahhhhh

If there’s a monkey on your back
You’re dancing with Mr. Jones
There’s a source for what you lack
Not involving groans and moans
Helping it a long by remembering this song
Alleluia… all… ahhhhh
Amen

LYRICS
Why do we want to make it so we twist and bleed
It’s getting harder and harder to breathe
The day has dawned “beyond so long”
Come to know “you reap, you soooo(-ed)”
Guilt in silence… not even a peep?
Is what we reap “playin’ for keeps”
Did you bet there’s no harm
Betting the farm?

Why have we made hate our destiny
Why have we made hate our legacy
The day has dawned “beyond so long”
Come to know I’m my own worst foe
Now, we’re in too deep
Playing for keep

Made a habit of destroying habitation
A destruction nation in self-annihilation
The day has dawned… so long beyond
We’re all “coming home”, I reckoned
Coming ’round the bend to…
The End

LYRICS
I overheard
It’s a record
Too much sun
Reigns on our fun
When it’s too hot
We can not
This record heat
Is beat
…2,3,4
How much more?

What we got
Is too hot
Getting difficult to endure
Any more temperature
Did you see the mercury
Going up in history
Going down! It’s misery
Absurd record
Invoke heatstroke
Add the absurdity of the humidity
Think you can sweat it?
Forget it!
Can’t compete with record heat
Na ugh-uh na uh-uh
No, can’t compete with the record heat
Na ugh-uh na uh-uh

Written at the doctor’s office during record heat. It is about the health risks from global warming. A significant cause of ill health is Temperature-Related Death and Illness.

LYRICS
Am I all alone?
Prone to ozone
Hold the phone…
I’m not alone
Don’t breathe
Grieve
Only way to relieve
don’t breathe!
Hold your breath
’till you turn blue
Hold your breath
It’s all you can do
Tropospheric
Sick, sick, sick
No singing songs
Damage the lungs
Damage prolongs
Swan song sung
In the “Ohh!” zone

Ohh-zone.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Q: Do you know what are two of the most dangerous exposures for children and the elderly?
A: Fresh air and sunshine

On days like today, do not go out and play. The sun can damage your skin and cause cancer.

Sunshine is also part of a deadly reaction.  When combined with heat and volatile gases, ultraviolet light causes a deadly reaction by creating  tropospheric ozone.

The dangerous ozone (O3) is created when vehicle (and other) exhaust is not completely combusted. Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in the exhaust react to temperature and sunlight creating tropospheric ozone (O3).

The ozone in the air can cause permanent damage to your respiratory and immune systems.

LYRICS
Good grief?
Like pulling teeth
Disbelief
Pulling teeth
(Open wide! You can’t hide!)
The sound of the drill
Makes me ill
When you see the bill
Feel ill still
Get the grind
Out of mind
Try to find
Someone kind
The gravity of a cavity
Weighs me down
Dental crown
King clown
Phew! Relief
Not pulling teeth
Glad the Dr. could
Say “Looking good”

LYRICS
Different? OK!
Indifferent? No way!
If you don’t care to care
This is going nowhere
The fashion of compassion is no fad
Imagine how you’d feel if you never “had”
Never had… never had had
If yo never had clean water, would it matter?
If you were cold and hungry how indifferent would you be?
If the clothes you chose weren’t a choice
Would you raise your voice
Against indifference
I’ll have one of those
And make a difference
My stance — make a difference
This instance
Any circumstance
Make a difference

Message it’s relaying
Get together clap your hands

Surely we’ll pass
In the meantime
My heart burns
In verse and rhyme
My heart yearns
Alas

Present to past
Hope to out last

I haven’t written anything yet
On your mark, get ready, set….
You know it’s time to go
Had to wait and anticipate
For blue sky to roll by

You can bet the first chance I get
On your mark, get ready, set….
You know it’s time to go
Had to wait to participate
In blue sky rolling by

Singing out loud
Break in the cloud
You know it’s time to flow
On your mark, get set, go!
Where air and earth mate
Had to wait and anticipate
For blue sky to roll by

In our eyes to realize
Time and a word
Time our message
Of love is heard
Yes, the time at hand to understand
