LYRICS
What once was blue
Has turned to grey
Another storm is on the way
Goes dry for days
No end in view
Then a deluge falls on you
Makes no sense to runaway
Try n’ deal a different day
Anyway
Sooner or later catches up to your
There’s not much you can do
Cry or pray

What once was grey
Has turned to black
Looks like the sky is going to attack
Been dry for weeks
No doubt a drought
Now the roads have cr3eks
Makes no sense to runaway
Try n’ deal a different day
Anyway
Sooner or later catches up to you
There’s not much you can do
Cry or pray

Extreme foregone green

Half-way Part III.mp3

LYRICS
Half-way out the window
Should I stay
Or should I go
How will I know
What’s best for the rest
The rest of humanity
The rest with sanity
The rest with heart
Where should I start?

One foot is out the door
Stay for more
Or should I go
How will I know
What’s best for the rest
The rest of humanity
The rest with sanity
The rest with heart
Where should I start?

I am of half the mind
to unwind
Or should I grow
How will I know
What’s best for the rest
The rest of humanity
The rest with sanity
The rest with heart
Where should I start

LYRICS
You have a clue just what to do
Now that we’re running out of steam?
Do you know what I mean
Was life just but a dream?
So-ing up the seem
Sowing up the seam
So it seems

You have a clue just what to do
Now that we’re coming to the close
What is it do you suppose
… we’re our worst foes?
So-ing up the seem
Sowing up the seam
So it seems

You have a clue just what to do
Now that we’re hanging by a thread
Did you hear what I said
Or prefer being dead?
So-ing up the seem
Sowing up the seam
So it seems

LYRICS
Too far to the left
Too far to the right
The dangers of politics
Since intellect left
Goin’ to rule with might
The dangers of politics
Chorus:
We the people
Know that all life’s equal
It’s up to us to shine the light
All our nation
In the same situation
Add our candlepower brighten the light

2. Too far to the right
Too far to the left
The dangers of politics
Since neither’s right
It’s time I left
The dangers of politics

3. So far I suggest
How far to cast the light
The strangers of politics
Sow more for the rest
Bring all to insight
Be strangers of politics

LYRICS
Don’t want to think about it
Can’t bear to think about it
Don’t want to think about it now
You don’t need to fuss and scream and shout
I’ve got myself to worry about
Don’t really care if the world is failing
As long as I’ve got smooth sailing
Since I’m not the on crying and hurting
Why would I care if the curtain’s falling?

Don’t want to talk about it
Can’t bear to talk about it
Don’t want to talk about it now
You don’t need to fuss and scream and shout
I’ve got myself to worry about
Don’t really care if the world is failing
As long as I’ve got smooth sailing
Since I’m not the on crying and hurting
Why would I care if the curtain’s falling?

Don’t want to hear about it
Can’t bear to hear about it
Don’t want to hear about it now
You don’t need to fuss and scream and shout
I’ve got myself to worry about
Don’t really care if the world is failing
As long as I’ve got smooth sailing
Since I’m not the on crying and hurting
Why would I care if the curtain’s falling?

Don’t want to bother ’bout it
Can’t bear to bother ’bout it
Don’t want to bother ’bout it now
You don’t need to fuss and scream and shout

Don’t really care if the world is failing
As long as I’ve got smooth sailing

Why would I care if the curtain’s falling?

LYRICS
The wind’s all messed up
Have we blown it now?
We’ve put the holey in cow
Butt, your mind’s made up
To your error won’t bow
Oh please don’t have a cow
Look what we’re left with now
Gotta make it through somehow

Temperature’s going up
Did we cook our goose
Tie the hangman’s noose
Butt, your mind’s made up
Though in error you choose
Tighten up the noose
Look what we’re left with now
Gotta make it through somehow

See sea risin’ up
Do you swim real strong
Can you do it for long
Butt, your mind’s made up
Do you care if you’re wrong
Playing your swan song
Look what we’re left with now
Gotta make it through somehow

Less kingdom
Chaos it
Not random
An arm’s length from Armageddon
Fare the well gates of hell
Time did tell

Bring on wisdom
Less stardom

It’s too late
It’s know/no surprise
Need to get wise
No more lies

When does a sage come of age
Why does logic still outrage?
Turn the page

Supposedly
It’s easy

(It’s as easy as 1,2,3)
Had to think twice
How to freeze some old ice?
How to pick fossils
Out of thin air
Bury them back under earth
Somewhere?

Supposedly
It’s easy

Freeze permafrost
With methane un-lost
Bring the coral reef
Permanent relief
How to pick fossils
Out of thin air
Bury them back under earth
Somewhere?

Supposedly
It’s easy

How to un-fall
Where timbers stood tall
How one can tell
Where snow once fell
How to pick fossils
Out of thin air
Bury them back under earth
Somewhere?

bookmark_borderAbout the Reign

I asked Sidd:
Is there a limiting factor to the size of raindrops… that will prevent them from becoming lethal?
“Availability of water vapor and intensity of updrafts within a cloud determine the size of a raindrop. Larger drops tend to result from the vigorous updrafts within a thunderstorm and fall faster than smaller drops.”
Sidd replied:
dunno,
but if it freezes, yes, it can kill you.
i imagine around a centimeter is about as big as raindrops can get …
would break up bigger than that for sure. i imagine there are studies somewhere
… never heard of raindrops killing anyone, but hail, yes.

LYRICS
About the reign of rain
We can train to sustain
Remain
As for the strain of rain
Use our brain to maintain
Remain
But you know
When the temperature’s low
The laws of physics please
Use to flow
Now won’t go
Sure did turn solid
Cause you know
When the temperature’s low
Liquid tends to freeze
What a shock
Feels like a rock
Sure did turn solid
Hell, the rain won’t kill
But, the hail will

2. Though rain’s reign goes on
You know it won’t last long
Till hail raises hell
How much longer is hard to tell

LYRICS
Particle derived raindrops arise
The mass amassed depends on size
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

Evaporate
At an ever increasing rate
Participate
A pounding precipitate
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

What goes up must come down
Bob and weave… avoid the crown
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

The moral of the story
Don’t belittle
The vision and the glory
Of Chicken Little
Caught in the updraft
Cycle round
Before coming down
In a wrath

You might say alarming
It’s a bit of a shock

Are you telling me
Things can’t be

Have always been
Wait! Tell me again

2. It’s a bit of a shock
Though trite, insight
It’s a bit of a shock
Why mock what’s right?

It’s a bit of a shock
A hard place and a rock
It’s a bit of a shock

bookmark_borderThe Momentum of Rain

As rain becomes more massive, it will have greater momentum when it hits. It will cause more damage to crops, plants, soil, asphalt, concrete, roofs, solar panels… and I bet if you use your “head” you can think of other impacts.

LYRICS
A hard rain is falling
The mass x velocity
Is starting to kill me
Driving right through me
More momentum
Sore cranium

A hard rain is falling
Frequency n’ intensity
Is starting to kill me
Driving right through me
More momentum
Sore cranium

Storm warning is calling
Rain drops with severity
… it’s starting to kill me
Driving right through me
More momentum
Sore cranium

Fire another
Shot into the dark
Ire of brother
Lost him to the dark
Of your mistake
What will you make
Cause of error
Reign of terror
Time for change

King of jungles
Falling from his throne
Cries and mumbles
Balling all alone
Of your mistake
What will you make
Cause of error
Reign of terror

Tire of bother
Shoot into the dark
Fires to smother
Living in the dark
Of your mistake
What will you make
Cause of error
Reign of terror
Time for change
