LYRICS
You’re cutting me into little pieces
At least that’s my thesis
You’re cutting me into little pieces
Like I’m your feces
You’re cutting me into little pieces

Why don’t you go for a run
Just for fun… I’ll give you my scissors
Just for fun… wanna play with my scissors?
How do you feel about snakes and lizards
Got some of them, too, just for you

Running with scissors
Body blizzards
Bodily blizzard
Running with scissors
Don’t wanna cause alarm
But you might cause harm
Running with scissors

LYRICS
You’ll be forgettin’ what’s troublin’
When you screw it in
Just screw it in
Clockwise… counterclockwise
Whatever gives you a rise
Twist it
Stick the flat head in the slot
Why not? Screw it
If you’ve a Phillips and she’s got hips
Less slips… screw it!

LYRICS
The cog turns the sprocket
The sprocket in turn turns
Turns it round and round
The fears grinding the gears
The peers grinding the gears
The powers that be don’t tread lightly
’till the little cogs are to worn down
To turn it around
Is the toothless cog cognizant
Of his worthlessness?
Cognizant of the arrogant
Cognizant they’re ignorant
Ignorant in bliss
Is this?

LYRICS
You want to hear the squeal of steel
All over the city tonight
You want to feel the here in hear
Spark-up a small town bright

Metal against metal makin’ sparks fly
The forge in the flow hardly have to try
Sending sparks flying
Without even trying

LYRICS
You call this industrial strength noise pollution? Wooah, woooah.
Then, I’m glad to hear it’s not falling on deaf ears
Music to the ears it sears
Seize in disbelief
Peace-less quite relief

[jam]

This music could be dangerous
If you are serious

It’s the kind that’ll melt your mind

Industrial noise pollution (Woooah, woooah.)
Pullin’ out of the station

LYRICS
Your get up and go
Must have got up and gone
Wondering where it went

Your get up and go
Must have got up and gone
Wandering incoherent

Though at first I didn’t succeed
In deed, I did try, try, try
Now, I have to ask myself why
I don’t say goodbye, bye, bye

Your get up and go
Must have got up and gone
Squandering… it’s been spent

Your get up and go
Must have got up and gone
Laundering what’s been meant

LYRICS
How I wish you were nearer
To help me think a little clearer
Now phased, dazed and confuse
Mind tattered, battered and bruised
How I wish you were nearer
To help me think a little clearer
Brain tazed, razed, lobotomized
Mind scattered, shattered, compromised

The comfort you bring
Is so comforting
Hear angels sing
Here angels sing

The energy that has become me
Sounds bizarre but it’s from that star

LYRICS
Perhaps too fond
Of playing James Bond
(Grew too fond
Of playing James Bond)

Thyself conned
Playing James Bond
About conceit… admitting defeat
Perhaps I’ve gone beyond
Playing James Bond
(Grew too fond
Of playing James Bond)

Realization dawn
I ain’t no James Bond
I can see… shaken and stirred… crazy
Stir crazy
A fantasy only you can see
When you’re playing James Bond
007 in hell or heaven
The magic wand of Bond

Bond. James Bond.

LYRICS
Can we build a better mouse trap than that
More like a rat
In a maze
Amazed

Lost in a maze for days
Pondering… wondering
What the heck are we doing?

While we’re here living
What in the heaven are we doing
Or well…
Are we creating our hell?

LYRICS
What is this reality
All about me
Is it all about me
What is this reality all about me
Is it all about me

As we march toward eternity
Is this my reality
As we march toward the eternal infinity
Will we get off our seat and on our feet
And come some more clearly
That we are we
It’s hard to argue that
As a matter of fact
We are we
As a matter of fact
That’s where we’re at
It’s beyond me
And my mortality
’cause I can see
More clearly
That I’m going to die
Sooner or later I’ll be “later gator”

bookmark_borderTaste

LYRICS
Now I remember…
You always leave a bad taste
Such a waste

Well, look at this
They said ignorance is bliss
‘suppose that’s your picture in the dictionary?
(So fancy and quite contrary)
Thank you for spelling it out… now, it is plain to see
What a waste
Bad taste

If you think you are cute
Ya sure ain’t astute
A fool should stay mute
When unable to refute

Ignorance is bliss?
Sure don’t miss… your kind — unkind with a narrow mind

Cry, baby, cry?
No, now I remember why I said goodbye
Because of all this, “Ignorance is bliss”
If such is this, the only bliss is…
Leaving your arrogance-in-ignorance

Haste for a good taste
Cleanse the palate
And, forget

Ya know…
Seems the wind and the snow
Got into a rift
If ya catch my drift

Fast, furious, swift
If you catch my drift

Blowin’ higher
Goin’ higher
Gettin’ dire
Startin’ to irk my ire
If ya catch my dirft

Seems the snow, ya know
Got into it… a rift… a drift
Adrift in a drift

I see society adrift
In their rift
They say they pray for a shift
Adrift in the rift
Of the drift
