One Guess.mp3

LYRICS
I’ll give you one guess
As to who created the mess
It wasn’t the birds
It wasn’t the bees
Wasn’t the monkeys
Swinging from the trees

I’ll give you one guess
As to who created the mess
Too late to warn
The bees swarm
Birds take flight
Out of fright
We’ve made a monkey
Out of me

I’ll give you one guess
As to who created the mess
One guess

Well, can’t you see
There ain’t no honey
The goose that lays the golden eggs is gone
At some point the light of insight will dawn

LYRICS
Born in the wild
Be a shame to tame
Naked to the world
True story be told
A true wild child
With a destiny still free
Naturally

Born in the wild
Nurtured by nature
Raised by animals
Void of rituals
Chorus

Born in the wild
In nothin’ but skin
If I had it to do over
I’d do it again
Chorus

LYRICS
As you arrive on the platform
The train is already leaving
If you’re off to take the world by storm
Might want to start with some learning
Listen to which way the wind blows
I’ll flow with Her… surely, she knows

Time and time again it never fails
Your ship already sails
When you’re off to take on the world
The next lesson is unfurled
Listen to which way the wind blows
I’ll flow with Her… surely, she knows

No sense making a great big fuss
Just because you always miss the bus
You’ll be better off anyway
Finding the meaning of the day
Listen to which way the wind blows
I’ll flow with Her… surely, she knows

LYRICS
Don’t know if it’s gonna snow
Ask my brain if it’s rain
Sunshine and rainbow
Just when I thought I had nothing to fear
Sure lookin’ like global warming is here

Will we survive the scary ride
There’s another record high tide
Praying flood waters will subside
Just when I thought I had nothing to fear
Sure lookin’ like global warming is here

Didn’t know the wind would blow
Fracture the structure… to and fro
I’m guessing that it’s time to go
Just when I thought I had nothing to fear
Sure lookin’ like global warming is here

How am I to beat the heat
When our fields are concrete
Even conceit’s gotta admit defeat
Just when I thought I had nothing to fear
Sure lookin’ like global warming is here

Polar Bear Starves to Death

LYRICS
Can’t you see his life’s in jeopardy
Can we bear to kill another bear
Should be aware of the cross we’ll bear
Bi-polar killing the polar bear

Who’s more mighty… we or he
Certainly our insanity
All the mighty lossin’ dignity
In their fight for me, me, me

First is past but last can’t be first
When the population bubble bursts

Light as a balloon
Floating like a feather
Feel it will be soon
Change of the weather/whether

In the vision
A decision
On indecision

Aroma in the breeze
Rose in the heather
Comes to me with ease
Change of the weather/whether

Is it dusk or dawn
Twilight in our theater
The change is upon
Change of the weather/whether

LYRICS
Looks like we’re staring straight into the storm
Better raise the alarm

Can you take me to the wizard
That conjured up this blizzard
… take away his royal robe
… shaking up my snow-globe

Looks like we’re staring straight into the storm
Better raise the alarm
So, I’d love to quiz the wizard
That conjured up this blizzard
See what he was thinking… do a mind probe
Perhaps lobotomize his frontal lobe
… shaking up our snow-globe
For crying-out-loud
It’s a total white-out out

LYRICS
Soon you’ll come to learn not to swoon
Your position relative to the moon

Undone
Your position relative to the sun

The reality of your relativity
Graduate to the first grade
When you’re past a retrograde
Mercury
Can you see
When you’re past a retrograde theory

Your perception undone
Your perspective undone
Your relationship to the sun
It’s not that far to that star
Your relationship to the sun
It’s not that far to the start

Perhaps a loon is really influenced by the moon
But, believe me
Clarity
You don’t have to move a star
You don’t have to go that far

The relativity
Of your clarity
Let it shine
Let it shine on through
Let it shine
Let it shine on you

The reality of relativity
The theory of me and my relativity
Theory of me
Relativity

Where did everybody go?

LYRICS
Nothing like the light shinning in my window
The sun’s ray finds its way
I get to know my shadow
It’s easy to see… follows me
As I lead into the shine
Everything works out fine

Here all this time the trials of mine
Were all just trivial
Now I see the light I fell alright
I feel the arrival
The End of the beginning begins to transcend
My belief system I’m forced to suspend
The beginning of The End all starts to blend
The shadow, still in the know, follows me into the light
Bestow the gift of second sight
As I lead into the shine
Everything works out fine

LYRICS
I went to the edge
And, there looked over
Quick to discover
It wasn’t over

Crossed my heart
Made a pledge
Won’t allege to start
Driving the wedge

Sledge whacks the wedge
Wedge splits the grain
What does it mean
Have we all gone insane
Splinters of strength are all that remain
We’re building a bridge over consciousness’ stream

I heard Mother Earth gave birth
She has a sun
Soon…
I’d come to learn she’s gotta moon
And, the moon gave rise to the tide
And, the sun brought the energy for me
Positively relativity

I heard Mother Earth gave birth
She has a sun
Soon…
I’d learn she has a moon
And, nature for sure will endure
Though I may be be no more
She’ll endure
For billions and billions of light years
And, us mortals though mere will endear
Positively relativity to me

Positively relativity to me

Today a ray made its way

Without Her heat we could never compete to be complete

There’s got to be a Soul-ution
For our pollution

For malnutrition

There’s got to be a Soul-ution

There’s got to be a Soul-ution

There’s got to be a Soul-ution
For lack of education

Cure mass manipulation

LYRICS
The air in Beijing
Is breathtaking
If you go there
You better be taking your own air
You’re not suppose to be able to see
The quality
Of air
Beware!

The air in Tehran
Iran
It’s terrorizing
We’re not alone
Closer to home
Philadelphia
Well, the air there
Is filth dealt to ya

Breathtaking

Better not gasp
’cause your lungs won’t last
You’re not suppose to be able to see
The air quality
We’ve gotta gotta find
Rack your mind
We’ve gotta find
A solution to all our air pollution
Gotta find
What comes to mind?
For crying out loud
My, Lord!
We’re not suppose to be able to see the air quality
We’re not suppose to be able to see the air…
Quite frankly

Living in a fog
When you’re living in smog
Clearly there’s no clarity
The air there is breathtaking
If something’s ever been meant for “goodness saking”
It’s air that’s breathtaking

LYRICS
(I think I see the sun coming up… up, up, up)

Right before dawn
It won’t be long
’til broad daylight
Enlightened by morning twilight

I’m starting to see more clearly
Everything will be alright
Just before dawn
It won’t be long
’til broad daylight
Enlightened by morning twilight
Enlightenment by morning twilight
Light meant by morning twilight

Another day is on its way
Playin’ it day-by-day by day
I say, “Thank God! I’m alive today!”
Just before dawn
It won’t be long
Starting to shine light
Delight in gaining insight
In to the delight of light
Into the light
Morning twilight.. curtains undrawn… right before dawn… light before dawn… morning twilight

Right before dawn
It won’t be long
’til we all belong
In to the light
Into the light
