LYRICS
Get a couple of things
Off my chest
Think it’s best
To forget about the rest
Before they lay me down to rest
Gotta see Man pass the test
Take interest in the interest of Man
Understand air, sea, and land

Got a couple things on my mind
Why’s it hard to find
The kind kind
Before they lay me down to rest
Gotta see Man pass the test
Take interest in the interest of Man
Understand air, sea, and land

Get a couple of things
Off my back
Why do we hack
When there’s nothing we lack
Before they lay me down to rest
Gotta see Man pass the test
Take interest in the interest of Man
Understand air, sea, and land

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
When did things go wrong
Back to the garden
Where did things go wrong
Blame it on Eden
On the eve of Eve
Dawn of destruction
Hard to believe
Call it satisfaction
On the eve of Eve

Adam’s same old song
“Woman, you’ve done me wrong”
Eternal shame
Collateral blame
On the eve of Eve
Dawn of destruction
Hard to believe
Call it satisfaction
On the eve of Eve

Satan moved on and on
On to Babylon
Playin’ the same old game
with a different name
On the eve of Eve
Dawn of destruction
Hard to believe
Call it satisfaction
On the eve of Eve

A song about people not taking responsibility for climate change. If you use fossil fuel or hydro carbon products, you are to blame. You can not blame your bad actions on Eve, an apple, and a snake.

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
Right when I saw it coming
That’s when the awe in dumbing
I came to see
Took over me
It took a long time
Such a long time
To figure it out
Seemed like forever
Or maybe never
To figure out
What it’s all about

Right when I felt it hitting
That’s when it’s too late for quitting
It came to me
I am to be
It took a long time
Such a long time
To figure it out
Seemed like forever
Or maybe never
To figure out
What it’s all about

Right when there’s understanding
That’s when there’s de-Man-ding
We’ve come to see
Left-over we
It took a long time
Such a long time
To figure it out
Seemed like forever
Or maybe never
To figure out
What it’s all about

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
Once upon a time
It was said to often
A trite redundancy
Once reason and rhyme
Trended to soften
Not right
Stupendously
When brains are in the bottom
It’s easy to see
It comes out smelling rotten
Feeling messy…
Runny
(Not funny)

Once in a while
It was said too often
Quite trite redundancy
The rancid and vile
Sent for a coffin
Not right
Repugnant, see
When brains are in the bottom
It’s easy to see
It comes out smelling rotten
Feeling messy…
Runny
(Not funny)

Once and done
It was said too often
Trite blight redundancy
Since reason and rhyme
Tended to soften
Not right
What’s left for me?
When brains are in the bottom
It’s easy to see
It comes out smelling rotten
Feeling messy…
Runny
(Not funny)

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
The day is as long
Just as right is to wrong —
Same as it ever was
Your will is as strong
As you choose right or wrong —
Same as it ever was
It’s up to you what you do
It’s up to you if you have a clue
[F# jam… E F F#]

The dark of night
Just as right is to wrong —
Same as it ever was
See the light
It can’t wait long
And become the cause
It’s up to us what we do
It’s up to us to have a clue
Our time’s come due

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
I’ve come to realize
It comes as no surprise
But should it?
Accumulate lies
Truth and justice dies
Now quit it
Change in the wind
Blow you back to where you’ve been
Waste of the sinned
Blow about, snuff us out
Blowin’ about n’ snuffin’ us out

I’ve come to realize
Can’t quite despite our tries
Bad habit
Accumulate trash
Hopes and dreams dashed
Argh, dam it
Change in the wind
Blow you back to where you’ve been
Waste of the sinned
Blow about, snuff us out
Blowin’ about n’ snuffin’ us out

I’ve come to realize
Deaf ears to our cries
Why should it?
Propogate4 lies
As the truth dies
Drip by drip
Rip by rip
Change in the wind
Blow you back to where you’ve been
Waste of the sinned
Blow about, snuff us out
Blowin’ about n’ snuffin’ us out

A song about politics and climate change.

LYRICS
Are you bullish
Or the bear?
Are you foolish
Pigs beware
The change is in the air
The change is already there

Are you so proud
Wrapped up in your pride?
A fool too loud
Cracked inside
The change is in the air
The change is already there

I’ve been humbled
Brought down to my knees
Once I’ve stumbled
Seek one with the breeze
The wind of change… prepare?
Wind of change is already there
Did you hear?
It’s here!

A song about “the long-term breathing experiment” and the Air Quality Crisis of 2023, the Canadian wildfires caused 4 days in a row of Unhealthy (151 to 200 AQI) to Hazardous (301 and higher AQI) outdoor air quality across much of the United States.

Smoke from wildfires in Canada brought record-breaking air pollution to the United States this spring, creating dangerous air quality from Bismarck, N.D., to Denver and Detroit to New York City and Washington. According to a Washington Post analysis of smoke data through June 7 (2023) from Stanford University, 197 air quality monitoring stations have reported all-time high pollution from wildfires.

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
Lead with your left
And we’ll show ’em whose right
In deed, with deft
It’s brains over might
Jumping through hoops
And loopity-loops
Still the treadmill
Uselessness drill

Block with your cross
Use footwork defense
They’re at a loss
For common sense
Jumping through hoops
And loopity-loops
Still the treadmill
Uselessness drill

Strike while you’re hot
Form a knife’s edge
Give all you’ve got
Become life’s sledge
… driving wedge
Jumping to heights
Amazing insights
Still get a thrill
Freeing freewill

A song about fighting human induced climate change

LYRICS
Hold on, Baby
It’s getting deep
Don’t know if I can ever sleep
Such a long night
Song for the light?
Give us foresight
Sing a song of light

Tell me how can I sleep at night
Knowing “things just ain’t right“?
Such a long night
Song for the light?
Give us foresight
Sing a song of light

Thank you, Baby
You got me thinking
Buoy our spirits… stop the sinking
Such a long night
Song for the light?
Give us foresight
Sing a song of light
Sing a song to get us through the night
A song sung to shower in delight

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment

LYRICS
It goes in one side
But the gap is too wide
Don’t you think so
(You know?)
Fight a rising tide
We’re in for a ride
Whoa! Let’s go
(You know!)
It’s time to take off
Those kid gloves you love
Pull yourself up
By the straps of your boot
Get ready to shoot

It goes in the other side
But the gap is too wide
Don’t you think so
(You know?)
Fight a rising tide
We’re in for a ride
Whoa! Let’s go
(You know!)
It’s time to put on
Those boxing gloves for love
Fight for what’s right
Shine as a bright light
Delight in insight

It goes in both sides
But the gap is too wide
Don’t you think so
(You know?)
Fight a rising tide
We’re in for a ride
Whoa! Let’s go
(You know!)
Let’s rise above
A reign dance of love
Shine and shine
Throughout all time
Define
Mine
