Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In case I’m not clear
The time draws near
We’ve got to get out of here
… gotta get out of here

Off base
It’s not clear
If you can here
We’ve got to get out of here
… gotta get out of here

The way you veer
Please let me steer
We’ve got to get out of here
… gotta get out of here

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The drums of war
Are growing louder
Chimpanzees
Thump their chests louder
The offspring ring
Their bells and sing
“No more war!”
The offspring ring
Their bells and sing
“War no more!”
Wars can cease
Ring in peace
May wars cease
Bring in peace

The guns of war
Are growing louder
Enemies
Keep dry powder
The offspring ring
Their bells and sing
“No more war!”
The offspring ring
Their bells and sing
“War no more!”
Wars can cease
Ring in peace
May wars cease
Bring in peace

The pain of war
Is crying louder
Chimpanzees
Could not be prouder
The offspring ring
Their bells and sing
“No more war!”
The offspring ring
Their bells and sing
“War no more!”
Wars can cease
Ring in peace
May wars cease
Bring in peace

bookmark_borderOn a Roll

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
1 and 2 then 3 of a kind
Just one ace left
For you to find
On a roll
To the goal
Won’t get fooled
Fool’s gold

Jack of clubs, ace of spades
Into the depths
The soul wades
To the goal
Takes its toll
Won’t play the fool
Fool’s gold

Counting as fast as I can
Mounting as the run ran
Roll and roll again

bookmark_borderDouble-edged

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Life cuts both ways
Everyone comes
No one stays
Life cuts like a knife
Mentally sharp
Or mental drop?
The word is the sword is
Double-edged
Are you left standing
On the edge

Fatal blow of the lance
Or merely
Just a glance
Straight as an arrow
Or round and…
… round we go
The word is the sword is
Double-edged
Are you left standing
On the edge
Wedged on a ledge

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
You can say that again
And, how…
… wow… now
Somehow
Got to find some higher ground
Take a step back… look around
See all there is to see
All a being can be

You can say that again
You can say that again
And, how…
… wow… now
Somehow
Climb up to some higher ground
Get a glimpse of looking down
See all there is to see
All a being can be

You can say that again
You can say that again
And, how…
… wow… now
Somehow
Pull you up to higher ground
Show you what can be found
See all there is to see
Be all beings can be

LYRICS
Do you know to be low
Why not try to be high
And, we’ll see how things go
Only humans can ask why
Step right up! Don’t be shy

Do you choose to forego
Why not make and partake
And, we’ll all get to know
Only humans can ask why
Step right up! Don’t be shy

Do you avoid the flow
Why not grow in the know
And, we’ll see where things go
Only humans can ask why
Step right up! Don’t be shy

LYRICS
Are you satisfied
Before you’ve died
(Are you satisfied?)
Are you satisfied
At the way you live

At the way you give
When the afterlife

Have you paid your due
As the afterlife
Starts calling you
What will you do?

Once an angel
Found an angle
To get back down
All is well
Rockin’ to her spell
Fly high
Dare to tell
The damned she’ll quell
Fly high

Now an angel
Found an angle
To get around
Rockin’ to her spell
Fly high
Dare to tell
The damned she’ll quell
Fly high

Found my angle
Your safe and sound
Rockin’ to her spell
Fly high
Dare to tell
The damned she’ll quell
Fly high

And shake off some of that dust

LYRICS
Do you find it heart warming
when the people are charming
it does one good
As it should
Freed my freewill

It’s come to this
Granted each and every wish
Now server
what shall I do?

Do you find it alarming
When the people are harming
Not as one should
For the good
Freed my freewill

It’s come to this
Granted each and every wish
Now server
what shall I do?

LYRICS
In a dream
(So it seems)
1 o’clock
Knock knock
At the door
Flat on back
Feat of feet
Hit the floor
Am I dreaming any more?
Awake or walking in my sleep
To take or giving to think deep?
