Quick! ’cause the evening

Before it gets too dark
Light it up… strike a spark
In the evening air
Aware it’s there

LYRICS
Squawk! Jay and hawk
Say, Jay giving the blue away
Giving the blues away
Those birds are not the the feather
Nor does it appear to be whether
After all
The bigger they come the harder they fall
Jay’s giving the blues away
Got to fathom
When I’m part of the equation
When my ass is mass
And I’m momentum
I can see the velocity
p = mv
p = me
After all
The bigger they come the harder they fall

I’m able to manage
Day dreamage
With mild reality seepage
The drip, drop, drip
Of the tick, tock, tick
The scene’s pulling apart at the seems

Pound of brick…
Or pound of feather
The foul little calling
The sky is falling

Candy coated popcorn, peanuts and a prize
Starting to realize

If there is substance lack… there of

Champion, again
Bringing home the dinner

LYRICS
Can you feel the essence
Through the thickness
Of the air
Can you seal existence
Effortlessness
Become aware
Gasping for air
The absurdity of the humidity
Don’t know how much
I can bear
Don’t know how much
I can wear
The absurdity of the humanity
Don’t know how much
I can dare

Apply within… er, a… without
Would you like to command the Space Force?
Of course,
The forces at play in space
Poof! Gone without a trace
Zero gravity. Are you getting me?
Any notion of an object in motion
Lack-of-friction diction?
As a matter of fact,
Who ya gonna attack?
And, who’s got your back
Depending which way you face
In space
[space interlude]
(Warning! Warning!)
International space station
Encroaching are location
Poof! Gone without a trace
The forces at play in space

LYRICS
Alright
It starts off nice and calm
… when we’re still in love
I thought you said you’d love me
You’d love me till The End
And, then…
It was The End
Things are looking brighter now
And, I know somehow
I’ll find my way out of here
I’ll find my way clear
You said you’d never go
Now, I know
It’s time to go
No blood and guts?
You’ve gone nuts
There’s enough blood and guts
You’ve gone nuts
