Let’s raise the spirit
Come on! Can you hear it?

In the way that you move
In the way you lay down a groove

When more is less
Less will prove
In the way we lay down our groove

Let’s raise the spirit
Come on! Can you hear it?

Proof Is In The Pudding

Posted on January 21, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
The proof is in the pudding
How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat?

The proof is in the pudding darling
The pudding is the proof

So, it seems the tailor sows a seam to ward off evil

The proof is in the pudding darling
The pudding is the proof

Poof! Let’s see how it cooks up

So, it seems the tailor sows a seam to ward off evil
Yet, still…
Leave some room for freewill

Embody The Soul

Posted on January 21, 2013January 21, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
You can be the eye of a hurricane
You can be the face of a cliff
As long as you’re not an old stiff
By keeping an active brain

You can be the moth of a river
You can be the heart of the matter
By keeping young as a mad hatter
You’ll be the one to deliver

Embody the soul
The sole body

Where one and one and one are one
When one and one and one are one

Embody The Soul.mp3

Ain’t Fate

Posted on January 19, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Just when you think everything’s alright
Something comes up to give you a fright
It’s another sleepless night

Just when you think wrong is long gone
A wind of evil up and comes along
You’ve gotta hope your faith stays strong

Just when you think everything’s alright
Something comes along and vies you a bite
You better pray your hope in faith is great

Coy like a fish
Going to be the dish

Dastardly Deeds

Posted on January 18, 2013January 18, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
Order another drone strike
Maybe this time we’ll get it right

Order another drone attack
No need to worry if our man comes back
Order another drone strike
Maybe this time we’ll get it right
Fulfilling government contracts
Doing dastardly deeds

Let’s order some more murder
Maybe that will be the cure
For all that ails mankind
We’re vicious and unkind
Fulfilling government contracts
Doing dastardly deeds

Let’s foul the drinking water
Not care what happens to order
Let’s kill them with their own feces
Then chant U.S., U.S., U.S.
Fulfilling government contracts
Doing dastardly deeds

Devilish Whirling Dervish

Posted on January 15, 2013November 15, 2013 by admin

Devilish Whirling Dervish.mp3

LYRICS

Whirling. Twirling. Spinning ever faster
Whipping yourself into a euphoric state
Going round and round and round
Hoping religion will be found

Hiding. Hunting. Hoping for an Easter
Praying resurrection is your fate

Devilish Whirling Dervish
Religious ecstasy
Devilish Whirling Dervish
Touching divinity

Make the whirling yours
Make the whirling mine
Create the whirling epiphany
Make the whirling divine

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Am C
Am G D Am

Written and recorded on January 15, 2013 in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania as a digital, 6-track stereo, extemporaneous recording.

The Mawlaw’īyya / Mevlevi Order, or the Mevlevilik / Mevleviye (Persian: مولويه‎ – Molavīyeh) is a Sufi order founded in Konya (present-day Turkey) by the followers of Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Balkhi-Rumi, a 13th-century Persian poet, Islamic jurist, and theologian. They are also known as the Whirling Dervishes due to their famous practice of whirling as a form of dhikr (remembrance of God).

The Mawlawi believe in performing their dhikr in the form of a “dance” and musical ceremony known as the Sama, which involves the whirling, from which the order acquired its nickname. The Sema represents a mystical journey of man’s spiritual ascent through mind and love to the “Perfect”. Turning towards the truth, the follower grows through love, deserts his ego, finds the truth, and arrives at the “Perfect”. He then returns from this spiritual journey as a man who has reached maturity and a greater perfection, able to love and to be of service to the whole of creation.

Rest In Peace (Aqua Marine)

LYRICS
Rest In Peace

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Who me? I don’t want to ever grow up

I don’t want to be old

Why would you want to grow old
Why would you want to grow mold
Why would you want to do what you’re told
Why would you want to grow old

You can grow old
You can grow mold
You can rot
You can rust
But, I say “Not”

Rest In Peace (Aqua Marine).mp3

Double Date

Posted on January 15, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
The little hand
And, the big hand
Take command
(Of moving time forward)

CHORUS:
What do you do
When it’s either
“I have too many”
Or, “I have too few”

The sun dial…
Hourglass sand
Understand
(As we move toward)

Chorus

Have to develop my style
It appears to be worth the bother
No? No bother?
We’ve got time aplenty

Handle snakes
Speak in tongues
Climb the ladder
To the highest rung
Then, take that leap
Leap

Da, da, da, de, da
Jah jah jah jah
We’re speaking in tongues
Handling snakes
Whatever it takes
To get to know
To get to show

Kabbalah

The message is one
The message is won

Handle snakes
Speak in tongues
Do whatever comes
To get the message out
To get the message in
To get the message through to you

First, take in
Then, chew
The parts we can spew
And, hope to get the message through

Snake Handling Immortal Tongue Speakers
We are the seekers

Screaming In A Vacuum

Posted on January 14, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
I’m screaming in a vacuum
Can’t get any traction
If my words had some friction
Might get through the diction

How come?
I’m screaming in a vacuum

I’m screaming in a vacuum
“I love you!”
However, the message isn’t getting through
Is there nothing I can do
To get through
I love you?

Can you read my lips?
Wish I had stirrups
Are your ears growing turnips?

I’m screaming in a vacuum
Can’t get any traction
Words need friction

Pull Out! Get High!

Posted on January 14, 2013 by admin

Pull Out! Get High! .mp3

LYRICS
Though it’s usually not what you want to do
Take two steps back
To try to move ahead
Try to get some gain
Try to remain sane
In life’s game
Sometimes
It’s the perspective
That can be interjective
To your thought process
Pull back
For a different point-of-view
Shooting yourself into space
See the morning dew
From way, way, way beyond
Then come back in again
Get way up close
So you can feel the dew upon you
Then, retrace

Moving forward is good
Way better than sitting still
But, better, better still
Use your will
After all, it’s free you know
Your freewill
Use it as some sort-of pill
To get high
Get higher, higher, higher
So, you can see all there is
See all there is to see
From here to eternity
You can be part of it, too
If you really want to

1,2,3
4,5,6
Let’s pick up the sticks
7,8
Lay ’em straight
Then, roll the dice
Ahhh… do it twice

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — G

Written and recorded on January 13, 2013 in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania as a digital, 1-track stereo, extemporaneous recording. A song about moving in dimensions. Get close enough to feel it. Pull back to get the big picture.

Oh! Susanna (Part 2)

Posted on January 12, 2013January 14, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
It rained all night the day I left
The it was dry
And, we all go marching
Down into the ground
To get out of the rain

When January feels like June
Wake up! Wake up! And, none too soon
And we all go searching
Everywhere all around
To get our of the rain

Oh! Susanna
Won’t you cry for me
Oh! Susanna
All can surely see
Oh! Susanna
It’s a tragedy

Oh! Susanna Part 2.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Capo 1
C Am
G Am

Written and recorded on January 12, 2013 in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania as a digital, 4-track stereo, extemporaneous recording. After posting this status on Facebook, the song was written and recorded on the streets: “Hmmm… 60 degrees in January… perfect day to take music to the streets… maybe write a global warming song?”

It started while I was sleeping… I heard a news report about severe weather being the new normal. Then, I started hearing a mix of the Stephen Foster song Oh! Susanna and the children’s version of Johnny Comes Marching Home known as The Ants Go Marching (and a dash if You Are My Sunshine)… kind-of tossing traditional irony with a modern day twist.
