LYRICS
Fast and furious
Cat got curious
Just in the nick of time
Are you serious?
Way too delirious
Not a reason nor rhyme
Fast and furious
More than dangerous
Our time the greatest crime

LYRICS
Be it as it may, for it surely may be.
Escape to where you are. It’s not very far.
You can be what you want to be. You can be where you want to be.
You can be all you can be
Picture where you’d like to go, and you know…
Picture it. Picture it. Picture it.
And, bit by bit by bit by bit
You’ll be able to grab it. You just can’t be a pig. You can’t dig, dig, dig.
But you know if you give with the flow, you know the flow will give, if you give with the flow, ya know?
You get to know where you want to go
You get to go where where it is you want to go
You can be. Can you picture it? Can you see?
It’s true. You can make your dreams come true.
You can make your dreams come true for you.
Maybe it may be. Maybe it may be.
See if you can see… then bit by bit you can picture it… and be.

LYRICS
My attention had been apprehended
At the suspense of being suspended
Suspended in time and space
In the habitat known as an earthly place
Sure is splendid until it’s ended
Then, I don’t know where I’ll go
In the meantime, it’s intended to be attended
And, if comprehended… who knows… maybe extended
Splendid and highly recommended
With the unintended consequence of being commended
As suspended is befriended

LYRICS
Come a little closer… just a little bit
I wouldn’t want to miss with a little KISS
Right between the eyes with a KISS hit
Come a little closer… just a little bit
Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS)
Do you want satin or prefer cupid?
Come a little closer… no, don’t move back
I want to give you this special KISS
Right between the eyes with a KISS whack
Come a little closer… take out the slack
Keep It Simple Stupid
Forget hatin’… feel what love did

LYRICS
When I look out my window
Many sights to see
And when I look in my window
So many different people to be
That it’s strange
So strange
You got to pick up every stitch
You got to pick up every stitch
You got to pick up every stitch
Mmmm, must be the season of the witch
Must be the season of the witch, yeah
Must be the season of the witch
When I look over my shoulder
What do you think I see?
Some other cat lookin’ over
His shoulder at me
And he’s strange
Sure is strange
You got to pick up every stitch
You got to pick up every stitch, yeah
Beatniks are out to make it rich
Oh no, must be the season of the witch
Must be the season of the witch, yeah
Must be the season of the witch
You got to pick up every stitch
The rabbits runnin’ in the ditch
Beatniks out to make it rich
Oh no, must be the season of the witch
Must be the season of the witch
Must be the season of the witch
When I look out my window
What do you think I see?
And when I look in my window
So many different people to be
It’s strange
Sure is strange
You got to pick up every stitch
You got to pick up every stitch
The rabbit’s runnin’ in the ditch
Oh no, must be the season of the witch
Must be the season of the witch, yeah
Must be the season of the witch

LYRICS
Chalk it up to inexperience
Now, that we’re experienced
Let’s dance
The brilliance of our biological science
The appearance of serious glorious
Loving the circumstance
Allowing us to dance
Experience dance
The mysterious Age Of Aquarius
Delirious, delirium, deliverance
Now, that we’re experienced dance
Resilience perseverance endurance experience
Dance

Scene: Enlightenment comes to a vegan convention. A participant comes to the realization they are meat. Then, another participant overhears the realization and says, “But, I am meat.” A discussion ensues about who should be meat #1 and who should be meat #2.
LYRICS
But, I am meat
And I’m glad to meet you
Meat, too
But, I am meat
Glad to meet you, too
Meat, too
I must admit at the heart of it I’m really just a giant hunk of meat
On two hooves… we’re sheep dressed as wolves
I try not to speak with forked tongue, but when it’s all said and done…
I suppose the plants will have won
I suppose as I decompose… we’ll have become one
As we become one, and the plants eat me… I’m starting to see my destiny — I am meat
Great… greet the meat as I meet and greet you, too… meat, too.

LYRICS
Oh, a very influential person
(Underworld Don)
Ain’t that the understatement of the year?
Didn’t wanna worsen
(Didn’t wanna dawn)
Too much enlightenment I fear
Euphoria in the euphemism
If it means I am
In the clear
Do ya need to tame the truth
Veiled in the cloak of couth
No need to soften the mouth
If spouting knowledge is wealth
#uck it, before you “kick the bucket”
Of course, beat a dead horse
Faux B.O.?
I don’t think so
Or, in The End gluteus maximus will epitomize us

LYRICS
I’m not that venomous
Compared to the rest of us
I’m not that venomous
Here’s the thing…
It’s my tale that will sting
I reckon I am like a scorpion
It’s my tale that will sting
What? Is the stinger conspicuous?
Ahhh… don’t be ridiculous
I’m not that venomous
Compared to the rest of us
I’m not that venomous
Jesus! I’m not that venomous
The words of truth will stand the test of time
And, in The End… prove I’m….
I’m not that venomous

LYRICS
What hue are you?
What do you think… Passion Pink… or Black and Blue… to show your strength
What hue are you? What wavelength?
Yellow under belly
Green as a new-bee
What do you think… Passion Pink… or Black and Blue… to show your strength
What color shall we be? What wavelength?
What do we want others to see? Do we want to radiate hate? I’m inclined to let love shine!
No, no need to keep love at arm’s length
Bask them in love’s wavelength
May the love light shine on you
Our wavelength’s hue
[Hue are you? Hue, hue, hue?
I really wanna know
Hue are you?
Tell me who are hue, hue, hue]

An old, traditional folk song. The origin is unknown but is believed to have originated in England or France. The song was reworked by blues musicians from the South. The first known recording is from 1933. The song was later made famous by The Animals in the 1960’s.
LYRICS
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I’m one
My mother was a tailor
Sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin’ man
Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s on a drunk
Oh mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I’m goin’ back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I’m one
House Of The Rising Sun (Alt. Version).mp3

LYRICS
Got my eyeballs…
And note, my ears, nose and throat
You got balls
Sit n’ gloat with membrane bloat
No, I’m not in need of another hole in my head
Are you in need of another whole in your heart?
Enough said
Let’s start
I was gonna say, “this ain’t brain surgery”
But, it sure is
I was gonna say, “this ain’t open heart surgery”
But, it sure is
Judgement day for your perjury
Do not pass go. Do not collect 200 dollars.
Go straight to purgatory
Listen to the screams. Listen to the hollers.
Got my eyeballs…
And note, my ears, nose and throat
No, I’m not in need of another hole in my head
