LYRICS
1,2,3,4
1,2,3,4
1,2,3,4
Counting out in music
Let’s play and play some more
Starting in the morning
The rooster counts its crow
Waking us to counting
Letting us all know
Moving us to getting…
Getting up and go!

5,6,7,8
5,6,7,8
5,6,7,8
We’re counting out some more
Till we dissipate the wait
Then, all afternoon
We’re counting out the time
Bell can’t ring to soon
Dismissal bell chime
Counting the days till June
And playing all summertime

9,10 again
9,10 again
9,10 again
Going to keep on counting
Till you tell me when to end
Later in the evening
Crickets start the counting
Till I should be sleeping
The sunlight starts dimming
But I want to keep on counting
Count on counting on playing

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Going to keep on counting
Till you tell me when to end

1,2,3,4 (Counting.mp3)

LYRICS
Looking to put a little harmony
Back into country
Some transparency
In our dirty laundry

Just the basic fact
Of exactly where we’re at
In our humanity extract

Looking to put a little peace piece
Back in civility
Civil in our civil war
On integrity

Chorus

Looking to put a little pride
Back in nationality
A quick logic fix
In our rationality

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The left ain’t right
And the right’s left
(And, that ain’t right)
Gone
A blight
Wrong
The right’s deft

The left is all wrong
About what’s going on
The right is all wrong
About what’s going on

As the left and right fight
There’s nothing left
No direction
The intersection
Of dejection
And perplextion

Circumcision
Concoction
Circumspection
Erection
Rejection
Infection

The left ain’t right
And the right’s left
(And, that ain’t right)

Enough drama

A song about senators pulling a vote-a-rama.

As Republicans push forward with repealing the Affordable Care Act, lawmakers are about to undertake a grueling Senate tradition: the vote-a-rama, a marathon of rapid-fire votes that is likely to stretch on for hours.
Yes, that’s really what it’s called. — New York Times

LYRICS
It’s hard to face the facts
When the facts lack
Or pull yourself up by the bootstraps
A barefoot kickback
Going to find the facts
Put an end to this fact flack
Get baby a new pair of shoes
Compassion’s for those that choose

Give me a break
There’s a lot at stake
When the POTUS turns fake
And the news — if only we knew

Now that I’m facing the facts
We elected a slack
In need of a boot to the ass
To show us worldly class
Back from fact finding
No need in reminding
Don’t ever, ever, ever let in
A con-man with thin skin
Give me a break
There’s a lot at stake
When the POTUS turns fake
And the news — if only we knew

Give me a break
There’s a lot at stake
When the POTUS turns fake
And the news — if only we knew

LYRICS
The fear
Of his smoke and mirror
I tire
Of the bold face liar
Bankruptcies
As far as the eye sees (the I’s see)
Oligarchists
Stealing money hands over fists
Took a full-time job
Taking money from the mob
Imagine this
Russian prostitute piss
What’s next
Off shore snakeoil drilling
Perplex
For sure, taxpayer billing
OH! Sob…
Dirty laundering with the Russian Mob
Now you
Make ‘merica squandering, again

LYRICS
You thought the bell had rung
That the fight was all done
Become aware
As you stare into the air
That was just round one

Don’t give up your fight
When you fight for what is right
Keep up the good fight
When it comes to shedding light

Hear my battle cry
“Fighting for peace!”
Here we try, try, try
Getting hate to cease

Did you hear the bell? Did you?
Well, that was just round two
Become aware
As you start into the air
There’s much more to do

LYRICS
Hanging by a thread
Holding on to life
Before dropping dead
Sigh.
We’re all going to die
But why
Foster dread
Instead
Light
Alright

Hanging by a thread
Don’t wanna be
Better off dead
I can see
Ya know
Below
I can see below
Hanging from a thread

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
One door will make you small
The other one will make you tall
Fly out the window
Up to the sky
Or maybe you’ll follow
The call of gravity… and fall

Command and choose a hand
You’ll come to understand
The wisdom of random
In our chaos kingdom
Or maybe you’ll swallow
The bliss of ignorance

One side will fix it all
The other drop the ball
One lives in shadow
The other blue sky
Belly ache n’ wallow
Or get it on the ball
After all

A song about chaos not being random (and the science of political science. ) “A dripping faucet seems random but when plotted… reveals an eerie order unexpected by conventional means.”

LYRICS
He puts his pants on one leg at a time
Just like you
Pulls up one sock then the other one, too
Just like you
He even had to learn to tie his shoe
Just like you

You can be what you want to be
Just ask me
Practice doing what you want to do
Try and see
What you can do!

You can run the fastest race
You can go into outer space
Jump in the deep-end and learn to swim
Pic a sport and to onto win
Pick up a guitar and start to play
Give it a try… it’s the only way

LYRICS
Oh, what a year it’s been
When hell freezing over did begin
Polarization at the polls
Realization of whose hearts have holes
Oh, what a year it’s been
When hell freezing over did begin
Listen! (Hear the) screams of tortured souls
Heaven? Better forget such lofty goals

King of the rude and crude
Destroys our peaceful interlude
The pseud of the shrewd “dude”
Screwed by lewd attitude

Delusional… the delusion of all
Install the “Great America” fall
Encourage the brawl
Encourage the maul
Drop your jaw in appall

LYRICS
I love the morning when I rise
Another day… another surprise
It always feels like noon is here too soon
Wish the day would never go away
Until the nightime

When the light gets slight
It’s the right time
Get a dose of holding you close

First Verse

You’re my spark in the dark
The fire in desire
The nightime
Feels like the right time
Nightime
