LYRICS
How far
How far
How far to push bizarre
Go to your closest city and see
Insanity
Coming to a town near you
The human zoo
So God bless the witness
Save us from this bliss
Unless we’ve experience
Death by ignorance

How far
How far
How far to push bizarre
Out of your closet and be
All you can be
Coming into view real soon
The full moon loon
So God bless the witness
Save us from this bliss
Unless we’ve experience
Death by ignorance

How far
How far
How far to push bizarre
Know all your closest intricacies
Let’s see
Coming to mind how to be kind
Loves not hard to find
So God bless the witness
Save us from this bliss
Unless we’ve experience
Death by ignorance

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Day by day
We say, say, say
More
Just like before
The same old thing
Won’t help the birds sing
Calamity
Repeating our history
Thought it easy to see?

Day to day
We say, say, say
Same
Ain’t it a shame
The same ole story
All for our glory
Calamity
Repeating our history
Thought it easy to see?

Still today
We say, say, say
Talk
Forego the walk
Insanity
Our infinity
Calamity
Of humanity
Thought it easy to see?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Let’s run it up the flagpole
See if anyone salutes
Run it up the flagpole
See if anyone refutes
Absolutes
1+1=2
This we know is true
Shortest wavelength — why the sky is blue
Who knew?

Let’s run it up the flagpole
See if anyone salutes
Run it up the flagpole
See if anyone refutes
Absolutes
2+2=4
This we know for sure
When the soul’s sick
Music is the cure
Play more!

Let’s run it up the flagpole
See if anyone salutes
Run it up the flagpole
See if anyone refutes
Absolutes
4+4=8
Say it’s not too late
Push back the date
Re-arrange our fate
Is resolute an absolute?
Let’s run it up the flagpole
See if anyone salutes
Run it up the flagpole
See if anyone refutes
Absolutes

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Is comatose
The most
You can boast?
Courage made of milk-toast
Or standup to the Man
Foot off the gas… let ‘er coast
Or demand to command

Is verbose verse
As close
To almost
Courage made of milk-toast
Or standup to the Man
Foot off the gas… let ‘er coast
Or demand to command

Is overdose
Morose
The endmost
Courage made of milk-toast
Or standup to the Man
Foot off the gas… let ‘er coast
Or demand to command

To be utmost
As host
Our milepost
Courage made of milk-toast
Or standup to the Man
Foot off the gas… let ‘er coast
Or demand to command

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Went to the well
But the well ran dry
Only drop around
Falling from my eye
I could just cry
I could just cry
Go to the well
Do tell
Do just as well
To yell
Shout out, “Oh, well”
Oh, well!

Go to the well
Well, go and try
A drop to be found
Falling from you eye
Could you just cry?
Could you just cry?
Go to the well
Do tell
Do just as well
To yell
Shout out, “Oh, well”
Oh, well!

bookmark_borderWhat Doesn’t Kill Us

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
After all that we’ve been through
It’s the least I can do
If pointing out to you
Will change your point of view
If it will get through
The things that we both do
Are going to kill you
And, me too
What doesn’t kill us
Will make us stronger
Learn the calculus
Of how much longer
Observe
Under the curve

After all that we’ve been through
It’s the least I can do
If upon reflection
It will alter your perception
Introspection
Since we all participate
The actions that we take
Are/our make or break
What doesn’t kill us
Will make us stronger
Learn the calculus
Of how much longer
Observe
Under the curve

LYRICS
Don’t give up now
You’re living
Let’s live up now
By giving
We’ll come upon
A way to move on
Then find our way
Back to play

Let’s live up now
By giving
Figure out how
We’re thinking
We’ll come upon
A way to move on
Then find our way
Back to play

Figured out how
By thinking
Living right now
And giving
We’ll come upon
A way to move on
Then find our way
Back to play

LYRICS
Can you hear the rain
On the window
And did you know
It gets harder every day
In every way
When you say
In vain
Our shadow
Falls on the road
The storm keeps pounding
n’ rounding round the bend
The End
Out from
Under a dark cloud
Time to state our stance
Aloud
When you say
In vain
Our shadow
Falls on the road

LYRICS
The God of War
And just how far
The art of war
Are
The battlefield
Refuses to yield
Her shield
The message she’ll send
Warriors lose in the end
The End

Did the start of your heart
Ever take part
Your ego and id did
Did you know in your mind
The thought to be kind
Is insight hard to find
“Remind”
The battlefield
Refuses to yield
Her shield
The message she’ll send
Warriors die in the end
The End

LYRICS
Pretty soon
Is starting to loom
I’m pretty sure
That pretty soon
You won’t have to go
Down the shore
… no more
You know
Won’t have to go
Down the shore
… no more
No matter what you do
It will come to you
Won’t go down the shore
… no more

Pretty near
Is almost here
I’m pretty sure
In fact, crystal clear
Don’t have to go
Down the shore
… no more
You know
Won’t have to go
Down the shore
… no more
No matter what you do
It will come to you
Won’t go down the shore

LYRICS
Is that shocking news?
How can you say
You never knew
Acting the way
You had no clue
Is that shocking news?
Bringing on the blues
How can you say
You never knew
Acting the way
You had no clue
Is that shocking news?
The wishes you choose
Are they win or lose?
How can you say
You never knew
Acting the way
You had no clue
Hear the disgruntled mumbles
“The way the cookie crumbles”
Are you of the ilk
Cryin’ over spilt milk
Having built a house
Of never forget regret
How can you say
You never knew
Acting the way
You had no clue
(You do)
Is that shocking news?
Careful with the wish you choose

LYRICS
There’s a place you could go
That we all know
Was the best place around
Keeps turning round
And there’s still no way
To slow her down
No, there’s no place like home
No, there’s no place like home
Wherever you roam
No, there’s no place like home
Well, damn it
There goes our planet

So the human race
Yelled “Let’s trash this place!”
They tore it up
They tore it down
But she just keeps spinning round
No, there’s no place like home
No, there’s no place like home
Wherever you roam
No, there’s no place like home
Well, damn it
There goes our planet

Silent scream
To the sky
Asking “why?”
Broken dream
Still I try
Asking “why?”
Not to be the keeper
Of sister or brother
Now who’s to blame
One and no other
(One and the same)

LYRICS
An unimaginable heat wave
Coming to our age
Say it’s all the rage
Hear the critics rave
“It’s hot — heat wave!”
(It’s to die for… and so much more)
Heat wave

Man will bake his cake of earth
Curse the land of his birth
No way to behave
Heat wave… wave… bye-bye… don’t cry

Man demands it’s a must
We will all return to dust
Man commands The End of Days
Damn demand won’t change ways

This song was inspired by the world’s largest life saving agencies (U.N. humanitarian aid agency OCHA and the International Federation of Red Cross) saying neither they nor humans can adapt to climate change in time. The lifeguards cannot save you — Extreme Heat: Uninhabitable Within Decades. “We don’t want to dramatize it, but clearly the data shows that it does lead towards a very bleak future,” said IFRC secretary-general Jagan Chapagain.

Do you care to share
Are you fully aware
Did you hear
There’s a shortage ’round here
Care to share?

Do you care to share
Whatcha hoardin’ in there?
Do you care to share
Are you fully aware
Did you hear
There’s a need to feed ’round here

Can you shove some love?
Do you care to share
Are you fully aware

There’s withholdin’ ’round here
