LYRICS
If your best trick’s drastic
Irony of a one-trick-pony
Ain’t that funny
When it cuts ya to the quick
Chorus:
As I’m watching the fish jumping
Head scratching as I’m thinking
Which am I… fish or fly
Which will die… swallow or fry
Can I only face the surface
Or am I willing to dive deep
If we don’t outpace the human race
Ya won’t even hear a peep
(chorus)
Bold to assume both I’ll consume?
Please remain king of the food chain
Yet no matter how hard I try
My know-how’s gonna die
(chorus)
No sense to weep. No sense to cry.
Distraught knot?
Distraught not!
[The fish eats the fly
Then both are eaten by I
We’re all going to die
Would you rather be swallowed or fried?]
LYRICS
Will I recognize you
After we breakthrough
When we reside on the other side
Will we begin again
Starting already knowing
Wondering when the outside we’re in
May the blackness of the heavens
Turn to pure white light
Soul is soaked in safe havens
All is justified just right
Dead but not gone
Playing a long song
Through the light of the night… an eternal dawn
In the light incites
Your light is in my sites
I know I’ll recognize your glow
In the light insights
Your light is in my sights
I know I’ll recognize your glow
“The time has come,” he said. “The kingdom of God has come near.”
LYRICS
Any way to say if you’ll be here today
Any way to know when you’re going to go?
We made the bed we’re going to sleep in
Our best friends and closest of kin
Will I sense that my time has come
Give me a chance before I’ve come undone
Rather dance with crazies then pushing up daisies
All too soon we’re howling at the moon
Though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death
Not choosing the path of the devil’s wrath
If She’s calling me to the Promised Land
When it’s time to come home, I understand
LYRICS
The sky’s eyes cry
The eyes of the sky cry
Raining tears of joy
Going to wash and dry
Mother Nature’s toy
Man can try as he can
But he can’t begin
To comprehend
The need to cleanse and mend
Don’t take the bait
To self-annihilate
Quick before it’s too late
Self-inflicted wound
Again and again
Self-inflicted wound
’till you turn your mound
Into a mountain
Again and again
Self-annihilation nation
Desolation Boulevard
Runnin’ through your backyard
Traffic jam of fossil fuel fools
They say they saw the sign, “Humanity, USA — Left”
So they turned around and went home alone
Bye-bye
The sky’s eyes cry
Bye-bye
The eyes of the sky cry
Bye-bye
LYRICS
Is this going to be big
Is it going to be epic
Quick, cut to the quick
Big… large?
Who’s in charge?
Don’t want to be seasick
Got to cut to the quick
Is it going to be big… is it going to be epic
It looks like this is going to be epic
Dig… dig deep… is it going to be big? Dig!
Is it going to be XXL… who’s in charge?
Who’s in charge to be in charge
Cut to the quick, quick!
Will you please appease and cut to the quick, quick
It seems the seams of the dreams have come un-stitched
Reincarnation itch
Is it a bitch?
We can do better
The fact of the matter… it matters, in fact, we can do better
It seems the seams seep reality… for me… you and me… we… reality
LYRICS
Suckling the nipples of the Milky Way
Singing spirituals of a better day
Through the nectar of stardust, we weigh
Through the dust to dust, we will return someday
A snake eating it’s own tail
Talk about an epic fail
Want to write a better tale
Into the galaxy we sail
Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
Eating her curds and whey
Along came a blackhole and sucked up inside her
Making more mortality a blur (more mortality)
Just for fun run ’round the sun
As we make our way
So our mass may pass
Into the future past
To say “we are stardust” may be a cliche, but it’s an undeniable fact that most of the essential elements of life are made in stars.
“For the first time, we can now study the distribution of elements across our Galaxy,” says Sten Hasselquist of New Mexico State University. “The elements we measure include the atoms that make up 97% of the mass of the human body.”
The new results come from a catalog of more than 150,000 stars; for each star, it includes the amount of each of almost two dozen chemical elements. The new catalog includes all of the so-called “CHNOPS elements” – carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, and sulfur – known to be the building blocks of all life on Earth. This is the first time that measurements of all of the CHNOPS elements have been made for such a large number of stars.

LYRICS
A pinprick in the night
A sliver of starlight
Then quick… with the millionth pinprick
Can’t count all the lights in sight
You know… when the horizon starts to glow
It won’t be long till dawn’s daylight
You know your star is rising
Cock’s crow… sunrise… good morning
Good news: good knews
Is coming our way
Who knows… no no’s
A-OK
LYRICS
In a mind down in the gutter
Pick it up and feel better
Being kind sure does matter
Me as debtee or debtor?
Waiting at the pearly gates
Don’t wanna be a faster regretter
Is my will free or is it fate’s
Name in The book letter-for-letter?
In line on their judgement day
Will I be searching for words to say
Don’t want it all to end that way
Want to go feet first… no debts to pay
On the fence at heaven’s gate
Don’t want to teeter ‘fore St. Peter
Repent offense ‘fore it’s too late
Wanna be in time with the master’s meter
[Sir Vent your servant]

LYRICS
What do you get when you fall in love?
Achin’ and shakin’ is what I’m thinking of
Finding I’m pining
Longing too long
Don’t need reminding
… livin’ a blues song
What do you get when you fall in love?
Quackin’ heart breakin’ is what I’m thinking of
What do you get when you fall in love?
Makin’ no mistakin’ is what I’m thinking of
What do you get when you fall in love?
Stakin’ breathtakin’ is what I’m thinking of
LYRICS
Pulling out of the station
Headin’ down the track
No need to bother lookin’ back
If you are out there ahead
Don’t look over your shoulder
Lessons you learn growin’ older
I better pay attention
Or I might miss my stop
Pay attention… stay on top
Or find the end-of-the-line
No! Please not that… It’s not my time
I tell ya doctor, “I feel fine!”
Glass half-full of satisfaction
On my way to saturation
Cup overflows with jubilation
When every day’s a celebration
Thankful for all of creation
Reaching self-realization
Pulling into my destination
LYRICS
Do you want to feel up
Well, if you uplift
Do you want to feel high
Can’t buy… give the gift
(Get by… give the gift)
Loving unconditional
Embracing all
Loving is medicinal
Embraced by all
Don’t ever give up hope in the future
Don’t ever give up faith in the kids
Do fill up your heart till it’s spillin’ over
So the “should haves” are always “glad we dids”
LYRICS
I ask you
When the sea turns
From a lovely blue
To the deepest of green
What does it mean?
Forecast fast
Outlast the past
Future for sure
Ensure future
I ask you
When the sky turns
From a lovely blue hue
To so grey… almost black
Time to stand back?
Forecast fast
Outlast the past
Future for sure
Ensure future
The lunacy of blasphemy
The insanity baffles me
No need for conspiracy
When it’s a bureaucracy
The lie-rd conspired
The liar conspire
Bureaucracy hypocrisy
