bookmark_borderTake It All In

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Wondering if I can take it all in
Before The End… begins
Do you think we’ll go extinct
The remedy to Earth’s misery
But while we’re still
Do you think we will
Continue to kill
Kill, kill, kill?

Wondering if I can take it all in
Before The End…
Wondering if I can take it all in
Before The End… begins
Do you think those that are fine
Will let their light shine
Shine, shine, shine
Alleviating hearts will succeed
By their light see eternity

Wondering if I can take it all in
Before The End…
Wondering if I can take it all in
Before The End…
Wondering if I can take it all in
Before The End… begins
Do you think tortured souls freed
No humane human will be in need
As every man comes to understand
The fate of man is in his hand

bookmark_borderDog’s Tale

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The tale of the dog’s tail
Got cut short
In the grand scale of things
Not much to report
Snakes and snails and puppy dog tails
What are we made of?
Sugar and spice and everything nice
Boom-a-rang of love

The tale of the dog’s tail
In The End
The grand scheme of things
Return-send… return… send… return… send
The End

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Alligator scales
A lizard at large
Proprietor wails
Look who’s in charge
The monster in us
Thrown under the bus
The monster within
Will never win

Look what id did
You know ego gloat
Do the devil’s bid
Can’t sugar coat
The monster in us
Thrown under the bus
The monster within
Will never win

Right from the start
Can’t keep the beat
Is it in our heart
To defeat conceit
The monster in us
Thrown under the bus
The monster within
Will never win

LYRICS
Why does it have to get so dark out
’cause there’s no doubt
We need the light
Enlightening
Ends fighting
Enlightening
Less frightening

Why does it get dark so early
I mean really
We need the light
Enlightening
Ends fighting
Enlightening
Less frightening

Why does dawn’s turn on hesitate
’cause we can’t wait
We need the light
Enlightening
Ends fighting
Enlightening
Less frightening

bookmark_borderTimekeeper

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The scorekeeper thought a little deeper
“I wonder who’s keeping time?”
As time continued to seether
“I wonder if I’m?”
Before Time runs out
Better figure what it’s about

The timekeeper stopped to ponder
“I wonder who’s keeping score?”
His mind continued to wander
“Is there any more?”
Before Time runs out
Better figure what it’s about

The players kept on saying
“I wonder who’s keeping track”
So they continued on playing
No / know you can’t get time back
Before Time runs out
Better figure what it’s about

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Is repeating competing making your life fleeting
At the crack of dawn you’ve got to get it on
… and on and on and on
You’re the master of your leading
Could go faster avoid/waive/wave receding

Do you feel you’re on a hamster wheel
Running but not making any ground
Did you fall on the carousel
Going round and round and round and round
You’re the master of your leading
Could go faster avoid/waive/wave receding

Amazed at the days
In a haze running the rat’s maze
Pushing play all day
In a fog as Pavlov’s dog
You’re the master of your leading
Could go faster avoid/waive/wave receding

bookmark_borderGet Back on That Horse

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The old man looked me in the I
And said, “Boy, you better give it another try.”
Get back on that horse and ride

Old man on my shoulder taps
“Pull yourself up by the bootstraps.”
It’s time to swallow your pride
Get back on that horse and ride

Old man’s funeral hard to grasp
Honor him by playing taps
Born again in angel skin
Thanks to him I tried and tried
To get back on that horse and ride
Got back on my horse and road
Thanks for lightening the load
To get back on that horse and ride
… see you on the other side

LYRICS
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Your light is showing me
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Your light is showering me
Shine on, you crazy diamond
A sparkling jewel lets me see
Your brilliance sets us free
Significance is daily
Relevance of “to be”
Set us free

Shine on, you crazy diamond
Your light is showing me
Shine on, you crazy diamond
A sparkling jewel lets me see
Your intelligence sets harmony
The difference in the key
Resonance tonality
Set us free

Shine on, you crazy diamond
Your light is showing me
Shine on, you crazy diamond
A sparkling jewel lets me see
Our circumstance in company
Can we balance empathy
A resemblance to deity
Set ’em free

Shine on your crazy diamonds
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Your light is showing me
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Your light is showering me

Have you ever seen the sky that blue
Through the green canopy do you see
Have you ever seen the sky that blue
Have you?
So true

Through the transparency do you see

bookmark_borderWant to Go for a Ride?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Who wants to go for a ride?
A glide… slide…
On a surface like glass
As objects in motion pass
So, fast
Solid, liquid, gasssss
And you find you’re not alone
In the twilight zone
Yes, you’ve found you’re new home
In the twilight zone

Who wants to come on a ride
Inside
Outside
Reach critical mass
As objects in motion pass
So, fast
Solid, liquid, gasssss
And you find you’re not alone
In the twilight zone
Yes, you’ve found you’re new home
In the twilight zone

At it again
See they’re at it again
Always has… it’s been
No small coincidence
The incidents’ alignment
And time and space is where and when what’s meant

At it again
See they’re at it again
Always has… it’s been
No, not by accident
The incidents’ alignment
And time and space is where and when what’s meant

See they’re at it again
Always has… it’s been
No, not by happenstance
The incidents’ alignment
And time and space is where and when what’s meant

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Does it tickle your fancy
Get your panties in knots
Did they bribe you with candy
To forget the “have not’s”
Coming fact-to-face
With a fact’s a fact
Get back
One thing for sure
It’s human nature
To attack

Does it ruffle your feathers
Taking candy from babies
Do you think truth is whether
It depends on maybe’s
Coming fact-to-face
With a fact’s a fact
Get back
One thing for sure
It’s human nature
To attack

A song about The Human Induced Climate Change Experiment.

LYRICS
A storm is moving in
Coming around
Blowing down
Seeking shelter would seem sane
But I remain before the rain
Reassured by the force of nature’s nurture

Dark clouds are moving over
Time to discover
Taking cover
Seeking shelter would seem sane
But I remain before the rain
Reassured by the force of nature’s nurture

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Did you miss your train
Or is it late and lame
Well, just the same
Enough talk
It’s a long walk
Soooo long
So long
Bye-bye
Last song?
But, why

Did you miss your ride
Or is it about pride
Better set the stride
Enough talk
It’s a long walk
Soooo long
So long
Bye-bye
Last song?
But, why

Has your ship sailed
All attempts failed
To the cross nailed
Enough talk
It’s a long walk
Soooo long
So long
Bye-bye
Last song?
But, why
