LYRICS
This 2-D picture just won’t do
Want to add depth… get 3-D with you
The length will get board
The width… two notes of a chord
Find harmony with me… 3D
Add me and I’ll be 3-D with you
Three dimensional
Intentional unconventional
When you wiggle in a line… that’s fine
And, on the insides of your sides… love resides
But, I’ve found… I love to find your mound (love to have found your mound)
Length, width and depth
Delight in the height
That 3-D view
Wanna get 3-D with you
Going in deep
No slumber, no sleep
Makin’ that three dimensional leap
No depth without steep
Going to climb that mountain
Of fortune and grin
Going in deep, again
LYRICS
What is meant by “what is in your basement?”
Is it hell in your cellar
What is meant by “what is in your basement?”
Is it hell in your cell, or….
Carry on with your purple crayon
The torment of your basement
The toys in your attic
The confinement of your basement
Making your mind sick
Carry on with your purple crayon
Inspired by Sybil — “The personalities make Dr. Wilbur a Christmas card, but Sybil made everything purple, a color that frightens Peggy. Dr. Wilbur hypnotizes Vickie and asks about the purple. Vickie relates a memory of a time Sybil’s mother locked young Sybil in the wheat bin in the barn. Thinking she was smothering, Sybil used her purple crayon to scratch on the inside of the bin so someone would know she had been there.”

LYRICS
How’s life going?
It’s coming along… how ’bout you?
How’s life going?
It’s coming along… it’ll surely do
How’s life going?
It’s coming along… lovin’ every minute, too
How’s life going?
So far, so good
Hoping it will go along… as far I could
’cause when it’s gone
It’ll be hard to live on
LYRICS
The worms squirm
As you go insane
Infestation of the brain
Worms squirm
Your turn to learn
Infestation of the brain
Going insane (He’s going crazy. Ain’t it plain to see?)
Now there’s nothing to gain… everything to lose
What will you choose?
The worms squirm
As you go insane
Infestation of the brain
Worm of the ear
Now it’s all you can hear
The worms crawl in as you begin
The worms crawl out as you find out
The meaning of doubt
The worms crawl in. The worms crawl out.
Won’t be long ‘fore the flies play pinochle on your snout
No doubt
The worms squirm
LYRICS
You might think it’s easier to hide on the darkside
But you might wake up beside the fried
Will you realize… you’ve died
Should have tried to reside on the rising tide
Ride the tide to the bright side
’cause you don’t wanna know the shadow
No… you don’t wanna know
Slide past the snide to the bright-side
Don’t let pride break your stride
Search far and wide for the outside
And, you’ll reside on the bright-side
Beside the denied to help guide
To the bright-side
Step into the light
Beyond the blight of might
You might… find insight
Excite! Ignite! Invite outright upright
LYRICS
If you’re board, why not go searching for the Lord
They say, “It’s alive”
Into the hunt let’s dive
They say, “Christ the Lord has risen today”
Let’s search until we find
If that’s what they had in mind
Let’s search until we find
Or ’til our eyes go blind
Are our I’s already blind
He’s not the kind you can wind
He’s not the kind you had in mind
I’ve a suspicion he’s risen
Now on high… listen
A titled peer of the realm
A champion of morals at the helm
Come see the deity… they say he’s in you… they say he’s in me
LYRICS
Ladies and gentlemen
For your listening pleasure
All the way from outer space
The human race
They float around a star they call the sun
Fighting over how peace can be won
Even though the race is one
Their ladies aren’t very ladylike
Acting more like the Third Reich
And the gentlemen aren’t gentle at all
Only a matter of time until an uncivil civilization will fall
So if you like the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard
Have you heard the human herd?
As for me, theirs is too much pain and agony
Spending their days trying to see
How much destruction there can be
I’m looking around trying to hear if a sweet sound can be found
Ladies and gentlemen
For your listening pleasure?
I’m not sure you can endure
Row: To take part in a noisy quarrel or disturbance.
LYRICS
Getting in a bout over what it’s all about
At any rate trying to agitate
Trying to combat where we’re at
Wow! Getting in a row over how
No time to quarrel about what’s immoral
Woah! We already know
No need to fight about what is right
’cause no good will come form trying to spite
After all, doesn’t it seem like we’re on the same team
We’re all part of the worldwide scheme
On the same side for our Earthly ride
And, well… we don’t wanna end up in hell
Better begin trying to get into heaven
Time to get along as we get along
’cause we won’t be ’round for very long
Life’s too short to spend in International Criminal Court
See our tragedy in the ICC
LYRICS
Oh, my, my
Someone told me we’re all going to die
And they don’t why
Wow! They don’t even know how
Shot through the heart or a poisonous dart?
Probably not… more likely from something we caught
We should be searching for a panacea for diarrhea
Or a solution for air pollution
Millions dying every year
Yet, no one’s developed a fear
Oh, my, my
Kneel and pray to the sky
As to why humans deny, deny, deny
The things we do killin’ me n’ you
Save us from ourselves
It ain’t no gnomes or elves
Save us from ourselves
Save us from us
Before we throw us under the bus
LYRICS
The command of the land, air and sea
I can see to eternity
Command understand
And, control your destiny
One-man-band command the polyphony epiphany
Conductor of the angelic army symphony
Singing in harmony
There ain’t no harm in me
I’m here to serve thee
I’m here to hear your cheer
Audience participation as a solution to devastation
Emancipation of your will to be free
Will your will be free?
Will your will to be freewill
Until you’re forever still
Emancipation Will (Set You Free)
Emancipation Will (Set Me Free)
Emancipated will
Salvation liberation
LYRICS
My Son, do you know how far to the closest sun?
How far to the closest star…?
It’s feeling kind of dark in here
And, I hear it’s pretty near
Can you shine some light
And make us bright… enlighten insight
It’s been feeling pretty slight
So, I’m wondering how far to the closest star?
My Son, how far to the nearest sun?

LYRICS
Not so subtle
About as gentle as a blow to the brow
Somehow, I’m hoping for more mental
Less brutal for all
Maybe put our heads together
Don’t have to pledge it’s forever
Just join hands to understand
The things damned by man
Giving way to a brighter day
Past the pages of the Dark Ages
To a new era of pro-engage
See beauty
Hear harmony
See beauty
Here harmony
LYRICS
None to soon
We’ll be living on the moon
On our way through the stars
Maybe make home on mars
But the moon’s not mine
Can I mine the moon
And, do we want to leave our scars on mars?
Space debris as far as the eye can see
Another giant hunk of space junk
Orbital debris — a mess due to humanity
Humans have a taste for space waste
Leaving us the curse of the universe
Aliens will be left in strife
If they come looking for intelligent life
Come on, Man! Can “leave no trace”
Be our motto for space
Europe and Russia announced their joint plan to colonize the moon for the purpose of mining. From the moon, man would launch humans further out into space. NASA recently announced its plans for manned missions to mars.
Space debris, also known as orbital debris, space junk and space waste, is the collection of manmade defunct objects in orbit around Earth. This includes spent rocket stages, old satellites and fragments from disintegration, erosion and collisions. Since orbits overlap with new spacecraft, debris may collide with operational spacecraft.
As of 2009 about 19,000 pieces of debris larger than 5 cm (2 in) are tracked, while an estimated 300,000 pieces larger than 1 cm exist….
