LYRICS
Now that I’m learning to fly
What’s the limit? The sky?
Flap my wings if I try
Soon I’ll be waving bye-bye

Spread your wings a learn to soar
Soon you’ll be calling “more, more, more”
Spread your wings and soar for sure
Settin’ sail your soul will endure

Now I’m wondering why
Everybody doesn’t try
We’re all learning to fly
Then, angels when we die

Chorus

Now that I learned to fly
I’m not afraid to die
Shed no tear… no don’t cry
Kite flight going high

Chorus

LYRICS
Spitting camel
Spitting cobra
Less like mammal
Much more bizarre
Animal will mar
Animals we are

Set yourself free
Shed your frenzy
Dream fantasy
Maker reality

Venomous snake
Venomous mistake
Mama bear’s cub
The wrong-way rub
Tentacles sting
Birds on the wing

LYRICS
Almost blown away
When the wind blows this way
A powerful gust
To Kansas or bust

As a matter of fact
Better hold onto my hat

Try as you might
Can’t fly a kite
Wind will break your string
Sending that thing flying

As a matter of fact
Better hold onto my hat

LYRICS
Another sandstorm
Cause for alarm?
Desert encroaching
Death Valley approaching

Climate change refugee
Sure is troubling me
Climate change refugee
Global warming tragedy
Escape while you can flee
Won’t you please set me free

Saltwater intrusion
Mass confusion
Seek higher ground?
None to be found

Chorus

Giant tumbleweed
I had to concede
No food for feed
Starving, indeed

LYRICS
Not sure
No, I’m not sure
I’m not sure what I’m going to do
I’m looking to you
I’m not sure what we’re going to do
How about you?

I’ve been looking around at what we’ve done
How can this battle be won?
We took on the sun
We took on the Earth
We tried to eliminate birth

What’s been done can’t be undone
I’m done
Undone
Classification
Change of the definition
You thought that was fun
Enjoy done under the sun

Come on people
We are the steeple
You’ve got your day under the sun
What can be done?

LYRICS
No matter what might happen
Man just carries on
Keeps carrying on and on and on

Call it cuckoo extincting the cuckoo
I know about me… don’t know about you
Do you call that cuckoo, too?

Not to mention we’ve been told
We’re melting ice millions of ears old
A provocation action… rather bold

No matter what might happen
Man just carries on
Keeps carrying on and on and on

We sunk California more than 40 feet deep
But, I’ve yet to hear anyone make a peep
Man is the world’s predator creep

Polluting the land, air and sea
As long as the consequences don’t bother me
What do you mean “we’ll have to wait and see”?

Children going from crying
To drop dead dying
Why aren’t we even trying

No matter what might happen
Man just carries on
Keeps carrying on and on and on

LYRICS
We cordially invite you to the zoo
We invite you
To Sunday at the zoo
Come on and do what you wanna do
You know you want to
At the zoo

When you get there
Music fills the air
Are there vultures?
Yeah! For sure
Going to be zebras and a whole lot more
Not to mention Homo sapiens galore
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

I’m going to the zoo
Are you going, too
I’m going to the zoo
That’s what I really, really want to do
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

The Bald Eagle is looking regal
And you don’t want to miss
Reindeer at Christmas
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

Have you heard the herd
Seen the scene
There’s so much to touch
Come on and do what you wanna do
At the zoo

See ya later alligator!

LYRICS
Let’s dig up a coal pit
And burn a bit
Our noose is tied right
13 kNots tied tight

What? What’s left of the fossils let’s turn to fuel
The folly of playing the Devil’s fool
Our noose is tied right
13 kNots tied tight

Tyrannosaurus Rex is perplexed
Wondering why our home we’ve wrecked
Our noose is tied right
13 kNots tied tight

If the dinosaurs were alive
I’m sure they’d be sore
Wondering why man is nature’s whore
Our noose is tied right
13 kNots tied tight

LYRICS
The flora has started blooming
With a fragrance dance
The fauna has started crooning
For a romance dance

Hear the Spring singing
Here the ring springing
Send the spirit soaring
’til the love’s pouring

As the buds start coming
They are leaving (leafing)
Babbling brook is flowing
Ocean going

We see that we’ll see
Our return to the sea
Not surprisingly
Seeing the sea is rising

We’re filling our place
In outer space
They call our block
“Little blue rock”
Oh no humans plunder again
Leaving a swatch of where we’ve been

Destroyin’ us all

No intelligent life on this planet
No intelligent life. God said, “Damn it!”

Waster and yearn
Never learn

Let’s get out there
Bring on some sun
Before the day is done

Couldn’t wish for it to get nicer than this
Gonna pick up the guitar and play away

Insight in sight
Thankful we’re got
We’re not have-not

Couldn’t wish for it to get nicer than this
Gonna pick up the guitar and play away

Loving that beat
Is there a chance
You’d like to dance?

Couldn’t wish for it to get nicer than this
Gonna pick up the guitar and play away

LYRICS
The sun rises above the horizon
In and of itself, not surprisin’
Nevertheless, a miracle in the sun risin’

To start the day in an amazing way
To light the way for the music to play

The energy to keep my heart beating
Plenty of fresh air for the breathing
Harmonies come to me when I’m listening

The more I give the more I’m receiving
The more I receive the more I’m believing
The more I believe the more I’m living

LYRICS
Was given birth on an island
The third one from the sun
They call it Earth — my asylum
Long may our days run

As we travel round and round
How do we know if we’re upside down
As we spin round and round
Starting from where we’re bound

Came to Earth as an infant
Second son of a second son
Only know can, not can’t
Long may our days run

Chorus

Gonna leave when I die
No need to gasp. No need to sigh
Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust
Hitchhiking to heaven or bust

Fall off the horse
Drift off the course
Sing the wrong verse
Get back on

Carry on

Fall off the boat
Boat that won’t float
Play the wrong note

Turn it on
Win the prize

With “our”
There’s power
Mother Nature’s natural remedy
Music and a lil’ comedy

It won’t be that long now
’til we see reality
Hoping there is somehow
We can adapt quickly
Have you heard the scoop
On the feedback loop
Painstaking
Accelerating
Exasperating
Eliminating

A new day is dawning
For some The End… others anew
Light and darkness spawning
Giving birth. Which are you?

There’s no place to hide
All your inside
Resides outside
