LYRICS
Indecision
X-ray vision
I see a revision
… can see right through you
What the damage is going to do
Make the decision
X-ray vision
Isotope probe
You know you’re going to glow
Can see right through you
Envision revision
X-ray vision
On a mission
Season of reason
X-ray vision
See inside me
Internal treason
Fight in sight
My decision
X-ray vision

LYRICS
In a race
Running in place
Unaware
Going nowhere
Keeping pace
Running in place
Soon I found
Gaining no ground
Stagnant
Like a plant
Maybe I’ll grow on you
Static
Less than quick
Clue: non-changing view
Face-t0-face
Running in place
Now aware
Going nowhere
First place
Running in place
Running late
To wait

LYRICS
Quick! Going to get sick
The hospital makes me ill
At the time, I was feeling fine
Well, now my wellness is on the line
Get me out of here
Need air that’s clear
Sound the alarm for harm
Induction of infection
Don’t want to learn of the germ
My health is a gem
My wealth is a all gone
From the system I’m in
Oh, dear! Get me out of here
Hypochondriac fear
Cardiac attack
Fell ill from the bill
Treasure my health
But lost my wealth
From the system I’m in

LYRICS
Treatment
I meant
Treat meant
I scream
Ice cream
Take cake
Candy
Treatment
I meant
Treat meant
Not to probe or poke
Nor resentment stoke
Treatment treat
Treatment
May it be pain free
Void of annoyed
A pleasant event
Treatment
Treat treatment
Treat evident
Heaven sent
The kind kind-of treatment

LYRICS
Doctor! Doctor!
Tell me what you knew
Doctor! Doctor!
Tell me what is new
Doctor! Doctor!
This ain’t the flu
And I’m overdue
Need a transfusion
From this delusion
Feel like mud
Need new blood
More radiation
For cessation
Know what I mean
Can’t even scream
Laryngitis
Illness fights us
The modern dread
Is waking up dead
Let me out of this hospital bed
Hospital gown getting me down
The lack of a back
Let’s my ass pass
Into thin air
Is there anybody there?
Hello? Hello?
I just dunno…

Still Waiting.mp3

LYRICS
Still waiting
Anticipating
Don’t hesitate to wait
Same space another place
A waiting room boom

Still waiting
Anticipating
Don’t procrastinate… wait!
Same race another place
A waiting room loom

Still waiting
Anticipating
Regurgitate the wait
Same taste another place
Sick of the waiting room

Still waiting
Anticipating
Can’t help but hate the wait
Snail’s pace another place
Shades of retrograde… in the waiting room

LYRICS
Extinguisher
Put out the fire
Extinguisher
Situation dire
Fanning the flames
Higher and higher
Political games
Still transpire
We’ll all retire
Fire, fire, fire
We’re all on fire
Fire, fire, fire!
Dowsing the flames
Treat the heat
Out shames and blames
Devil’s defeat
Fire fighter
Extinguish fire
Wrong righter
Extinguish dire

LYRICS
Better sit down
The wheels go round
Even if you can stand no longer
There’s the support of the stronger
As the wheels go round and round
May freedom found abound
As the wheels go round and round
Freedom ringing is the sound
Set yourself free
Upward mobility
The world you’ll see
Semi-dependently
We all need somebody
For an everybody
WE all are somebody
Part of everybody
Together we’ll weather
Going round and round
No matter “whatever”
With a smile it’s found
Riding a merry-go-round
Going round and round
As the wheels go round and round
May freedom found abound
As the wheels go round and round
Freedom ringing is the sound

LYRICS
A view
A window on the world
What can I do
To make the colors bold
A view
Red, yellow, blue
The spectrum’s hue
Point-of-view
A view
Out of the dark
Into the new
Be the spark (new knew, a new anew)
A view
Help me to see
What can I do
To enlighten me
A view
Into the light
A view
Giving me sight
A view of you

LYRICS
Authorized personnel only
Wonder if they’re lonely?
What’s beyond the door
Are there any more?

Can it be realized
How to be authorized
Is there a center
For “do not enter”

What makes one special
Features that are facial
Does it all start
Examining the heart

Authorized personnel only
Must be simply lovely
What’s behind the door
Can any human endure?

LYRICS
We’ve got a war on cancer
The only problem…
The cancer’s in her
The war on the goblin
The issue at heart
Hard to tell them apart

Throw out the baby
With the bath water
What about maybe
We try to save her?

We’ve got a war on terror
The only error
The terror of terror
I just don’t know
Can we wage war on a shadow
Here we go
Throw out the baby
With the bath water
What about maybe
We try to save her?

We’ve got a war on war
We just can’t wait
Fighting hate with hate
The real debate
Can you hate hate?
Ahhh… it’s too late
Throw out the baby
With the bath water
What about maybe
We try to save her?

LYRICS
I read, “The late Alfred Doe”
Late? He’s really dead, though
Beyond tired…
Expired
Beyond past due
He’s through
I’ve got the future past life blues
When I die
Hope you stop by
n’ say “hi” and “good-bye”
When I die
Hope you stop by
Or at least try

I heard, “The late Jane Doe”
Late? At her rate…
Died in the fast lane, though
All horizontal
Open casket… full frontal
I’ve got the future past life blues

When they say I’m dead and gone
Sing that “Jolly Good Fellow” song
Any time of me you think
Raise your glass and toast a drink
I’ve got the future past life blues

LYRICS
I saw a jigsaw
Puzzle
Fallen to pieces
Broken… old
New life leases
Put together
Escaping never
Trying to get the picture
To ensure we’ll endure
The art of the parts into a dream scene

I can’t wait to see what we’ll be
Our part in the heart of art
The puzzle’s solution
Our evolution

How long will we be together
Can it last forever and ever
Will someone start to pull us apart
Once they dismember will they remember
… will they begin to make us whole again?

A song about a puzzle in the doctor’s waiting room as a metaphor for human life.

LYRICS
The fading scene of the magazine
Once the scourge of the forest
Now it’s being put to rest
Soon I hope to see
The same thing happen to TV

Maybe we can learn to earn
The need to earn to learn
An appreciation for the acquisition
Of knowledge as privilege

Today and forever more
Banished to a waiting room
In the fading light of glory before
Parent of an empty womb

With any luck, reincarnated
Instead of to the garbage fated
Recycled to a new life form
A birthday to be reborn

The fading scene of the magazine
Once the scourge of the forest
Now it’s being put to rest
… think it’s best

Coversong originally made famous by The Beatles

“Yer Blues” is a song by the English rock band the Beatles, from their titular 1968 album The Beatles, also known as “The White Album”. Though credited to Lennon–McCartney, the song was written and composed by John Lennon during the Beatles’ retreat in Rishikesh, India.

The song is believed to be a satirical reference to white English boys trying to sing the blues.

        E                 E7+9
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
        A            E
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
   G
If I ain't dead already
B7                            E    A  E  B7
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why.
E                         A E
My mother was of the sky
E                         A E
My father was of the earth
E                         A E
But I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth

I'm lonely (verse)
The eagle picks my eye
The worm he licks my bone
I feel so suicidal
Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones
Lonely (verse)

Black cloud crossed my mind
Blue mist round my soul
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock and roll
Want to die
Yeah, want to die
If I ain't dead already
Oh, girl, you know the reason why
