LYRICS
Crippled by hysterics
Searching for the lyrics
Where do I begin
Digign’ in and penetratin’
I’ve never had writer’s slumps
Never been in the dumps
Makes it really hard for me to relate
Makes it really hard to state

ABOUT THE SONG
This coversong was inspired by the rioting in Baltimore, MD. The people rising up against violence with violence seemed too ironic… too hypocritical. So, the rioters posing to be on TV made me think of this song (for they are The Beautiful People.)

LYRICS
We’re in step
To the promised land
In a marching band
A reggae… funky reggae marching band
Pick up a flute or pickup a lute
A mandolin or violin
Pick up whatever you can get into
We’re getting in step
Left right it’s alright
Left right left right
We left left right
Left left for right
We’re getting in step
With a reggae marching band
In step to thee promised land
If you want to joins hands
Hand in hand in step to the promised land
This marching reggae band
This reggae marching band

LYRICS
All this riotin’ and lootin’
Doin’ nothing but pollutin’
Your solution
Undermine your revolution
Son, had you begun in Ferguson?
Watch the gore for sure in Baltimore
You can’t hate hate unless you partake
You can’t take part with what’s at stake
When you behave all irate… at any rate
There’s a moral lack when you strike back
At others not involved in your attack
Doesn’t matter whether they’re a shade of grey, white or black
It’s just a matter of fact
That ain’t no way to act
Is it any wonder they wanna put you in a cage
The way you behave all in a rage
You’re more likely to engage as a sage
Put a The End to that book… and look to a blank page
All this riotin’ and lootin’
Doin’ nothing but pollutin’
Your solution
Undermine your revolution
Watch the gore for sure in Baltimore?
No more! No more!

With very little superstition
From the gut
No if, and, or, but

LYRICS
A fight to the finish
In our fragile space capsule
A race to The End of the human race
Living to diminish
Our fragile space capsule
Modern Age rage flailing in disgrace
Happy birthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Dear ole Earthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Right on!
Get positive on negative ions
May the atmosphere of our sphere
Scatter blue your sky
… and make you feel high
Happy birthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Dear ole Earthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Can you see yourself floating in the sea
I confess the weightlessness is bliss
Crave the rave of riding on a wave
Happy birthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Dear ole Earthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Do you know the feeling of a rainbow
Synesthesia like anesthesia from the dread
Flourish and nourish your head
Happy birthday (Hey, hey, hey)
Dear ole Earthday (Hey, hey, hey)

LYRICS
I think and I thunk on figuring about
The whole world turning inside out
Have you ever, ever, ever, ever thought about
The whole world turning inside out
Give a scream! Give a shout! Figure about:
The whole world turning inside out
Give a scream! Give a shout! Figure about.
And maybe… just maybe… we can work it out
See the world… and it’s turning inside out

LYRICS
When down and out is in
Maybe I’ll begin
When down and out is in
Maybe I’ll begin
To check in
To checking in
’cause as soon as I found out
About checking out…
It’s true what’s said about the dead,
“You’re dead.”
Checking in to checking in
Been too long
Going wrong
With checking out
Checking in to checking in
I for one have begun
To check in to checking in
Checking in to checking in
I’ve got more than 36 items
I’ve got more than 12 items
I’ve gotta get out of this express check out
I’ve gotta get out of this check out
And, checkin’ in to checkin’ in

LYRICS
When the gates of hell fell
Closing behind
Have you lost your mind
Something smell like rotten eggs
Burning sulfur
Brimstone
A terrible smell for all but the demon
A terrible smell for the human
The gates of hell fell
You started to tell
As you looked behind
You’d lost your mind
The gates of hell fell
Up close it looks like their closed
The gates of hell slam shut
No if and or but
And as it comes closed
Don’t let it hit you in the butt
If I had a lil’ more class
I’d say don’t let it hit you in the….
The gates of hell fell
Can you tell
When they close behind
If you’ve lost your mind

You can set thee free
Free
If it was up to me
I’d set thee free
But it’s up to you
Do you know what to do?
Set thee free
If it was up to me
I would set thee free
But if you wanna come true
It’s up to you
You have got to set thee free
It’s true
It’s up to you
You know
It’s true
It’s up to you
To set thee free
Open up your cage
Shed your rage
Shed your cage
The choice is in your voice
Raise your voice and make your choice
Set thee free

LYRICS
1 = 1 — argument won
2 = 2 — holds true for you
3 = 3 — easy for me to see
4 = 4… need any more?
The tautology of you and me
That which must be, must be
Give-up the attack on fact
Look for worth in truth
Ta-ta tautology
La-la logically
Can’t be forgot
I am, or I am not
One certainly must be
Ta-ta tautology
ABOUT THE SONG
Dm F
Bb Dm
A tautology is a statement that is necessarily true, true by definition, and true under any conditions. A tautology is a repetition of the meaning of a statement, using different words or symbols. According to Ayer, the statements of logic and mathematics are tautologies.

LYRICS
From when you rise under the sunrise
’till the day’s undone under the setting sun
May all your dreams come true
While doing what it is you do
From when you go to sleep at night
’til that first ray of the new day’s light
May all your dreams come true
Dreaming the dreams that you do
In the scenes from your dreams
Do you dream in colors… ya know… colors of the rainbow?
Who gets the pot ‘o gold
How is your story told?

LYRICS
We’ve been straying a ways
From our better days
On a path of destruction
Evolution dysfunction
Mating with Neanderthal
Going to lead to our fall
Take on the shape
Of crawling back to the ape
And at this rate (And at this rate)
Approaching our expiration date
And at this rate (And at this rate)
Casting our destiny’s fate
We’ve been straying a ways
From our better days
On a path to damnation
Eternal dysfunction
Any orgy of imps
Resembling chimps
Squirting demons’ seaman
On the Succubus in all of us
