bookmark_borderA Plan for Hope, Love, and Peace

LYRICS
Moving away from the same way
Moving toward moving forward
Today
Changed the way I approach the day
Create the hook for a new outlook
Today
In the rearview
There is nothing new
On the way there
To being aware
To play
Today

bookmark_borderThe Day the Circus Came to Town

LYRICS
The circus has overtaken us
See what 3 rings bring
And I ain’t clowning around
With what’s going down
Mark my word
A bearded lady swallowing a sword
A guy in a gorilla suit acting mute
Reason’s moot
Ahh, come on
Swing with ease
Grab the knees
Of the girl on the trapeze
Fly through the air
Without a care

LYRICS
The thing with human
She really is resilient
Let sing the human
Light really is brilliant
Do do do do do do it
Let’s do do do do do do it
Then begin to all join in

The thing with human
She really is persistent
Let bring the human
Light glowing brilliant
Do do do do do do it
Let’s do do do do do do it
Then begin to all join in

The thing with human
She lives in the moment
Let ring the human
The bell of the insurgent
Do do do do do do it
Let’s do do do do do do it
Then begin to all join in

bookmark_borderSlippery Slope

LYRICS
Up that slope
Steep, steep slope
Fear and hope
Slippery slope
Winning or are we slipping?
Masked covered grinning
Letting the heart start
Shining through to you

Logarithmic
Rhythmic music
Breaks the mold
And grabs hold
Learning the art of skating
Gracefully slide while slipping
Growing the heart smart
Shining through with you

bookmark_borderIn Theory

LYRICS
Claiming to know what is the answer
A matter of fact couldn’t be farther
Truth of the matter (couldn’t be further)
You query, “in theory?”
In practice
Is my advice

Stalling the spread
Of the manure
Starving the dread
From the maneuver
You query, “in theory?”
In practice
Is my advice

bookmark_borderA Lickin’ (I Can’t See What’s Taking Over Me)

LYRICS
I’ve looked everywhere, but I can’t see
What exactly’s taking over me
Some overarching driving force
Causing me to veer off course
The fox is in the hen house
Feeling a little chicken
A game they call cat and mouse
Is giving me a lickin’

Turned every stone but I can’t find
What exactly’s taking over me
Tell me friend, have I lost my mind
Or is it just I see reality
The fox is in the hen house
Feeling a little chicken
A game they call cat and mouse
Is giving me a lickin’

Don’t you know I looked high and low
But I can’t see what’s taking over me
Can I find “on high” or “down below”
Or anything that’ll set my free
The fox is in the hen house
Feeling a little chicken
A game they call cat and mouse
Is giving me a lickin’

bookmark_border(My) Get Up

LYRICS
I guess my get up and go
Must have got up and went
As I’m getting to know
The meaning of content
It seems so much easier
Knowing what’s in me
Not being told
What I have to be
We all move along
And, we all move on

Plant a seed
Watch it grow
On our borrowed time that’s lent
A miraculous show
Must have been heaven sent

Entering deep brain thought
Expunged from the deep rot
Add the fourth dimension
The sixth sense sensation

LYRICS
It’s never too late… now
You know now?
As in now
“Is” is not too late
Is is
Fallacy of fate
Anyhow, so long as “now” / for now
It’s never too late
On the other hand
I’ve come to understand
Hesitate
Anticipate
Too late

bookmark_borderOn The Fence

LYRICS
Sitting on the fence
Which way we’ll/will fall
Hence,
Whichever way for all
Or hear the angels call

Sitting on the fence
Which way we’ll/will fall
Sense,
Common for all
Cents… less in a lull

Sitting on the fence
Which way we’ll/will fall
Tense?
Less than before
Sense,
Coming back for more

bookmark_borderFlow And Rinse

LYRICS
Don’t let your panties get all in a bunch
’cause it doesn’t really matter that much
Put up a fight
Got all uptight
When you know…
You’re not right
Might as well give up
Might as well get up
Might as well… live it up!

If you’re felling a little too tense
Get in the flow and rinse
If in your haste you make waste
Try the spontaneous taste
Might as well give up
Might as well get up
Might as well… live it up!

LYRICS
Beyond today
Beyond tomorrow
We’ll be past the past
And, we’ll see what come to be
The day is near when the clouds will clear
Out of the darkest night…
… we’ll see the light

After tomorrow
After the sorrow
We’ll be past the past
And, we’ll see what come to be
The day is near when the clouds will clear
Out of the darkest night…
… we’ll see the light

Into the day
Under the ray
We’ll be past the past
And, we’ll see what come to be
The day is near when the clouds will clear
Out of the darkest night…
… we’ll see the light

bookmark_borderIf You Go Out….

LYRICS
If you go out on the streets tonight
You’re better off going alone
If you go out on the streets tonight
You’re better off staying home!
Frightened of the things you don’t see
Frightened of what we’ve come to be

There’s something on the surface
There’s something in the air
Be the accidental sacrifice
Like you were never there
Frightened of the things you don’t see
Frightened of what we’ve come to be

LYRICS
Aerosolized
In my eyes
Realized
Infected
Caught the disease
In a breeze
Soon to be pushing daisies

Please save me

R.I.P.
(Rip)
Rest in peace
To say the least
Save me please
No peace in cease

Aerosolized
In my eyes
Realized
Infected
Eyes, ears, nose and throat
The risk is not remote
Once it’s under your skin
Life wears thin

Aerosolized
In my eyes
Realized
Infected
Mask would not hurt
Mask might not help
In your eyes
… ears, nose throat

Swooning
In love with be

bookmark_borderStaying Home

LYRICS
There’s lions, and tigers, and hearts slain bare
To dark to see what’s lurking out there
I’m happy just staying home
Forego the risk of roam

There’s a viri threat to the nth degree
No, I’m not paranoid… it’s following me
I’m happy just staying home
Forego the risk of roam

It sure is nice feeling at home
With man’s best friend you’re never alone
I’m happy just staying home
Forego the risk of roam

With man’s best friend you’re never alone
I’m happy just staying home
Forego the risk of roam
