Centaur.mp3 (free download)

LYRICS
Look deep inside
Have I the courage to ride?

Envision a creature
Half woman… half horse
A significant feature —
Majestic wings
To take flight… of course
The prophecy She brings

Centaur: God sent her

Heard the wings huge whirr
So fast as to blur
Descending from heaven
Calming the heathen

Put an end to war,
Centaur

Envision a creature
(Heaven sent, for sure)
Intelligent brain
Glowing mane
No chance to tame
Sent from the Main

Look deep inside…
I have the courage to ride!

LYRICS
Gonna move along
Without any trace or track
If I don’t leave a track
Can’t backtrack
Gotta move ahead
No sense rehashing everything we said

Gonna roll down the road
Gonna roll this old soul

This rolling stone will gather no moss
Not gonna leave destiny to the ole coin toss

Gotta take charge of your destiny
I mean, after all… it’s all about *me*… my destiny
Gotta set yourself free
Break out of those chains
Cut the losses for gains

Heading down the tracks
Leaving no tracks
No backtracks
Moving ahead
No rehash of what’s been said
Gonna move along
To a traveling song

The blowing wind
Of the fiercest storm
Well, be forewarned
I’m coming at you like a freight train
Heading at ya
There’s no backtrack

LYRICS
There’s a place below absolute zero you can go
Where the evil spirits can’t go… the temperature is too low

A place where freewill will
And, the evil spirits distill

Someplace low, low, low, low, low
Where the evil spirits can’t go
They can’t go

Distill the evil spirits (and, they fear it.)
The cream of the crop will rise to the top

If you can seek out… find out about
A place that is low
So low the evil spirits can’t go

LYRICS
There was a protracted, aggravated dry spell
About the only song written was “Oh, Well“, well
Once there was a length of time
When nothing would rhyme

Aggravatingly long dry spell

Needed a diving rod
For some spiritual inspiration
Something from God…
An Act Of God
So, we could get some H2O penetration

Any which way
As long as it’s the highway

I’ve been listening to you all night and day
The only thing I’ve got to say…
Any which way
As long as it’s the highway

All night and day
I have to sit and listen to what you say
Any which way
As long as it’s the highway

This is your call…
Do you call for the fall?

Any which way
As long as it’s the highway

LYRICS
Said, the cat to the mouse,
“The race is on”
You know the race is on
Run!

The race is on

You know the race is on
When you hear the starting gun
The race is on
It’s time to run

Said, the dog to the cat,
“The race is on…
Didn’t you hear the starting gun?
Come on and run ’cause the race is on”

You know the race is on
When you hear the starting gun
Come on and run

Don’t hesitate as we commence the chase

Said, the spider to the fly,
“The race is on…
Go on and run,
The sticky web that I weave
Makes it hard to leave.”

Come on the race is on

1, 2… 1, 2 ready go

They’re off!
The race is on

You better run
Before the setting sun

Didn’t you hear the starting gun?
It’s in my heart to give you a little head start

Last chance

If you knew this was your last chance
Would you take the opportunity to dance?
If you knew this was the last dance
Would you take the opportunity
Would you take the chance?

Let’s not let the opportunity lapse
Let’s not let all our future drain into the past
Let’s take the opportunity to dance

Dance!

Dance yourself right out of those pants

Forget about all that silly nonsense
Come on and dance

Last chance

bookmark_borderAnd We All Bleed

LYRICS
Prelude (recorded in the soundcheck)
What if I’ve just been the victim of the world’s greatest con
What if I’m just a victim of everything that’s gone wrong
And, we all bleed
When one of us is bleeding, we concede to bleed.

The Song
Have I just been the victim of the world’s greatest con?
All these people and politicians tell me nothing’s gone wrong?
That’s the wrong song!

Try to convince me
We’re not responsible?
Yes, you try to convince me
That we’re not responsible?
That’s most irresponsible

We’re responsible for all this trash
We’re responsible for all this mess
We’re responsible for all pollution
We’re responsible for institution
De-civilization

Maybe it’s time
We woke up and smell the coffee
Can you smell the coffee
Or, is it just me?

We’ve all got something wrong going on
Well, folks…
Look behind that curtain
It’s a hoax
The Wizard is you
Now, what’cha gonna do?

Have we just victimized ourselves of the greatest con
It’s all around
How it went wrong is now in song

Is it just me or do we have to take responsibility?

And We All Bleed.mp3

Relevant

Relevant
As an elephant
In a China shop
Now, drop

It’s time to be big
Big… bigger than this
Bigger than this
A luscious kiss
Able to transcend
Again and again

Time to get relevant
Like an elephant in a China shop
Now, drop

Relevant

Like an elephant in a China shop
Now, drop
Irreverent in a reverent way
Instead of gone astray
We can band together
As a band
Not, necessarily hand-in-hand
(Staying unique)

Coming relevant
Like an elephant
In a China shop
Now, drop!

When it’s freedom you attack
It will haunt and daunt and taunt
’cause you know it’s coming back

Chorus
We’re in the pursuit of happiness
With my inalienable rights you shall not mess / Do NOT tread
You ain’t gonna take my freedom away / No not today
You ain’t gonna take my freedom away / Not anyway

Chorus
Girl or no girl
My heart is split apart
Girl or no girl
My heart is split apart
Far away

I thought I’d never see the day
When things would go… go my way
Now the world’s… the world’s my pearl
Not gonna be a bug on the grill

Chorus

Bridge
And, I live by myself for a while
Finally, my face wear’s a great big smile
I’ve come to find that no girl
Will make me squirm or squirrel

Girl or no girl
My life is split apart
Girl or no girl
My life is going to start
Today

LYRICS
The police, like lice, will get in your hair
The police, like lice, are everywhere

Suppose to be a social servant
Suppose to be a civil servant
But, you’re neither civil nor serving
No, you don’t know how to be civil or serve

Causing me to flee
Bugging me out
The police, like lice
All these lice and flees
They’re bugging me out
I can’t scratch enough
They’re so &%$damn tough

The police, like lice, will get in your hair
The police, like lice, are everywhere

Police
Mean
Scream, “We need help!”

Hello, 911
I’m being assaulted by an officer of the law
He’s out of line
He’s out of bounds
He’s an outlaw

Assault
Kidnapping
Being restrained against my will
Bring on more trouble, still

Your voice is a gift from God
Let’s hide our pride
Instead of being proud
Let’s get loud

Your voice is a gift from God

You can start to take part
Are you listening?

Wisdom and knowledge glistening
With the power of know
