LYRICS
The secret to life is living
The secret to living is life
It’s not much of a secret
When you’re six feet under… buried… dead
Maybe you were misgiven
Mistaken life for livin’
Embracing strife and grievin’
Save!
Go to the grave
With no regret
While above… wonder… varied… feed your head

LYRICS
Are you feelin’ alien?
I’ve been told
It’s out of this world
Bold
To go where no man has gone before
You’re in store
To become folklore
Go, go, go
To the space show
Are you feelin’ alien?
Are you feelin’ alien, again?
Did you go
To the space show
I’ve been told
It’s out of this world
Better than gold
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 Blast off!
Why don’t you come back to Earth
Since you’ve been given this birth
You might as well take advantage of your age
Earth Age daydream
Might as well age
While you can get old
On this world
I’ve been told
Being earthling is the best thing
Earthling is the best thing to bring
Are you feelin’ alien?
Are you feelin’ alien, again… and again?
Come back down to Earth
Experience God given birth

LYRICS
I can’t wait to navigate space
I hope I see my exit before it’s too late
I can’t wait
To navigate
Space
Head at a steady rate
At any rate, going straight
How do I slow down
When there’s no friction around
None to be found
I hope I see my exit
That’s it
Before it’s too late
I can’t wait
To navigate
Some grand prix race in outer space
Through the galaxies
Heavenly fantasies
In our race through space
On my way through the Milky Way
I’ll search for intelligence
If I can just converge
(maybe some will emerge)
I heard them say
There’s none in the Milky Way
You’ve got to go further out
In outer space
If there’s any trace
Of intelligence
Or just allegiance to ignorance

LYRICS
Time is starting to slide faster a way
Day by day by day
As we collide on the ride
Spacetime continuum I know I am
Take a stroll through a wormhole
Ride the time slide
Come on and ride
Slide, slide, slide
Take a space stroll
Through a time wormhole
Once you’re sucked in
There’s only one way to win
Ride the slide
Take a stroll through the wormhole

LYRICS
Does anybody share the care
Is anybody there
Do you care to share
Does anybody anywhere share the care
Please let me know you’re out there
Do you have a concern about the level of care
That you can see anyone anywhere share
Or is it just all wrapped up in selfish
Selfish like some sort-of shellfish
The happy clam that I am
Don’t you think it would be fair
If we all learned to share the care
Don’t you think it would be alright
If we all gained some insight
Saw the light
See the light
Be the light
“We” the light

LYRICS
This is a soundcheck… for a reggae sort-a thing… that will be extemporaneous
We’ve made it this far
Rather combine forces and become a star
We’ve made it this far
The I in the I
And the you in you, too
We…
We can determine destiny
Or, so they say
We’ve made it this far
Combine become a star
Become the star you know you are
We’ve made it this far

LYRICS
Heartfelt moment
Heartfelt moment
When you sing Christmas carols in your native tongue
I feel the Earth is as one
Heartfelt moment
It’s a heartfelt moment
First, my spirit went silent
Then, it skipped a beat
When you throw out conceit…
When you throw out defeat…
Heartfelt moment
Wait a minute
No, don’t wait a minute
I feel your spirit
Not only can I hear it
I feel it
Deep within
Heartfelt moment

LYRICS
I’m just a bland gland
I don’t understand
Just a bland gland
I don’t know
It’s hard to believe I’ve developed beyond and embryo
I don’t understand
I’m just a bland gland
Like the belly…
No not just the belly
The underbelly of the lowlyest worm at the bottom of the sea
Yeah that’s me
I don’t understand
I’m just a bland gland
Do I care if I see an atrocity
Nooooo
I just plead ignorance
My indifference passed off as ignorance
I’m guessing people will feel sorry for me
If I don’t understand the atrocity

LYRICS
If you consider all homeless
To be terrorists
What’s up with your self-interest?
That’s messed up
That’s what’s up
How can you raise fear about fear
When you create the terror aren’t you the terrorist
It’s implicit
After all, who created the homelessness
That lack of nest
If you create terrorists
Chances are large you’ll live in fear
Next, you’ll tell me that you hate hate
Well, isn’t that hate that you create
Then, you cheer on your fear
Got terror in error
When the twist is you’re the terrorist
The twist is you’re the terrorist
Do you think you can resist becoming the terrorist
When you hold your fear dear
Like your fear is more dear than my fear
Then I fear fear itself

LYRICS
The air in Beijing
Is breathtaking
If you go there
You better be taking your own air
You’re not suppose to be able to see
The quality
Of air
Beware!
The air in Tehran
Iran
It’s terrorizing
We’re not alone
Closer to home
Philadelphia
Well, the air there
Is filth dealt to ya
Breathtaking
Better not gasp
’cause your lungs won’t last
You’re not suppose to be able to see
The air quality
We’ve gotta gotta find
Rack your mind
We’ve gotta find
A solution to all our air pollution
Gotta find
What comes to mind?
For crying out loud
My, Lord!
We’re not suppose to be able to see the air quality
We’re not suppose to be able to see the air…
Quite frankly
Living in a fog
When you’re living in smog
Clearly there’s no clarity
The air there is breathtaking
If something’s ever been meant for “goodness saking”
It’s air that’s breathtaking

This song is about humans making the planet uninhabitable. Over the last couple weeks, major cities including Beijing, Tehran and Philadelphia have declared air quality alerts. People are advised not to breath.
Air pollution is one of leading causes of death.

LYRICS
Is that the way it is?
Because if that’s the way it is
Now, it was
Is that the way it is?
’cause that is turned to was
The is is now was
Shall we get to will be
What will be
What will be will be
If we chart our destiny
Well, is that the way it
Now, that’s the way it was
Is that the way it is
Because…
Now, that’s the way it was
Is that the way it is
’cause now that’s the way it was
Because
As fast as it is is
Is was
In the blink of an eye I go from is to was
So as long as I shall be
I will be
Living in what will be
In charge of our density
Sailing the sea we’ll see what will be charting our destiny
Is that the way it is
Is that the way it is
Is that the way it is
If that’s the way it is
Then that’s the way it is
PART 3
Is that the way it is?
Because
If that’s the way it is
Now, that’s the way it was
As is turns to was
I’d like to see how we chart our destiny
So we set sail for the sea we shall see how we chart our destiny
Is that the way it is?
Because
Now, that is was
Is that how it is?
Because
Now, that is has turned to was

LYRICS
I’ve been wandering
Wondering as I’m wandering
Out on the range
Isn’t life strange
I hope I’m not walking
I hope I’m not talking
In circles
I’d feel like such a circle-jerk
That just won’t work
I’ve been wandering
Wondering as I’m wandering
Out on the range
Isn’t life strange
Let’s begin to soak it in
It doesn’t matter where you begin
Soak it in
