LYRICS
On their last leg
The blight of the plague
Brought on my their own
On climate change
Innards rearrange
Supper’s blown
Tunnel’s first light
Comes into sight
Much to our delight

On their knees… beg!
The plight of the plague
Brought on by their own
Oh very strange
Elect and derange
Crown and a throne
Tunnel’s first light
Comes into sight
Much to our delight

On our best leg
In flight of the plague
Out grown our own
Explore new range
Out of the grange
In the wind… blowin’
Tunnel’s first light
Comes into sight
Much to our delight

LYRICS
I’m just a creature of circumstance
Come here as human observance
As a matter of fact
I don’t want to go back
Off to explore some more

I’m just a creature of circumstance
Cast here as human observance
Imagine what we can do with new
Knowing now what we knew
As a matter of fact
I don’t want to go back
Off to explore some more

I’m just a creature of circumstance
Last here as human observance
Imagine what we can do with new
Knowing now what we knew
I’m starting to see what can be
Quarantined me knows “to be free”
As a matter of fact
There’s no need to go back
Off to explore for more

LYRICS
They told me:
You want it?
Go out and get it!
I got it
Now I don’t want it
(You can have it)

Should have known should be careful what I wish for
Carved in stone “should be mindful what I wish for”

These things you thought the self would please
Turn out to be a disease

Money can’t buy happiness
It’s more in the love of the essence

What’s a matter with me?
What’s a matter with you?
From what I can see
It’s we that’s gotta get through
We sing and play away the day
We stay and lift the light all night
We do it for the love and joy
From our hearts hope you enjoy
If you want to get down to it…

LYRICS
I’ve been to the edge
… and looked over
Trying to discover
… if it’s over
Please hear what I say
You can live to see the day

I’ve looked the Queen Of Spades in the eye
Trying to determine if we’ll die
Please hear what I say
You can live to see the day

The devil wanted to wrestle
Swear I didn’t want the hassle
When forced to do what I have to do
I’ll rise to
Please hear what I say
You can live to see the day
Seize the day!

LYRICS
I’m my life measured in time
My lifetime
All the time that I’m
My lifetime
I’ve never experienced anything like this before
In my experience, thought nevermore
Not in my lifetime

The persistence of existence
My lifetime
Find the path of least resistance
In my lifetime

No, I’ve never seen anything like this before
Not in my lifetime
The mortal out-of-order… amiss
Not in my lifetime

LYRICS
I’ve seen it all
My painted wall
Is slowly drying
Compassion swell
As we dwell
Instead of dying
You know
Looking out our window
There goes
Watching our hearts grow

Been here before
It’s time for more
Let’s make it stick
Pour on galore
It’s in your core
And make it quick
You know
Looking out our window
There goes
Watching our hearts grow

LYRICS
I see you have 2 eyes
I see you have 2 ears
But can you see
Can you hear?
Among the things that be
Throwing troubles unto me

How can you be so unkind
Pretending that you’re blind
With what little heart you’ve left
Why pretend you’re deaf?
Among the things that be
Throwing troubles unto me

I see you have a brain
I see you have a mouth
But is your brain inane
Giving up life for wealth
Among the things that be
Throwing troubles unto me

How can you be so numb
Pretending that you’re dumb
Why render all life moot
Pretending that you’re mute
Among the things that be
Throwing troubles unto me

LYRICS
I’ve had my share of days
Under the sun
Seems only fair
That I leave some…
Leave some world behind

Thankful for this planet
To have my birth
Seems only right
That I leave some Earth
And, leave some world behind
Wouldn’t it be kind
To leave some world behind

When the meek inherit the Earth
Who goes hungry
And who’s quenched thirst
When first is last
And last is first
Who goes hungry
And who’s quenched thirst
Leave some world behind
Wouldn’t it be kind
To leave some world behind

“You are failing us. But the young people are starting to understand your betrayal. The eyes of all future generations are upon you. And if you choose to fail us I say we will never forgive you. We will not let you get away with this. Right here, right now is where we draw the line. The world is waking up. And change is coming, whether you like it or not.” #howdareyou #climatestrike full speech here https://youtu.be/v33ro5lGHQg
— Greta Thunberg to the UN, September 23, 2019

LYRICS
A young lass from Sweden
Says, wake up! You’ve poisoned the garden
And the eyes of the children are watching now
Some little girl from Sweden
Says, wake up! You’ve pissed in the garden
And the eyes of the children are watching now
Somehow
We’ve got to shake them awake

The climate change anxiety
You’ve “thrown out” upon me
… shouldn’t be
And the eyes of the children are watching now
Somehow
We’ve got to shake them awake

The solution to your pollution
Is in your institution
It’s not just me
Responsibility to society
Really
And the eyes of the children are watching now
Somehow
We’ve got to shake them awake

You’re ringing the alarm bell of hell
And the eyes of the children are watching now
Killin’ kids and babies… ain’t no maybe’s
And the eyes of the children are watching now
Somehow
We’ve got to shake them awake

“The eyes of all future generations are upon you.”
So, what are you going to do?!?!

LYRICS
Watching the water a while
Listen to the waves roll in (Rollin’)
A hypnotic style
Will begin
The sign or the sine
Wave by by
To time… I’m….
See-side
At the Ohhh-ocean
Bide no time
Ride the tide
The rhythm of the beat
Auto-tapping feet
Syncopation
Sensation

World’s best deal
Universal appeal
Coated in custom fur
Yes, it’s real
Zest and zeal
Comes in a him or her
Glad that I’m keeping canine time
Seven times the time

You listen well
You’ve got beautiful ears
All concur
Stroke that fur
Gone troubles and fears
Glad that I’m keeping canine time
Seven times the time
In the time of canine

Do you want to go for a ride
Race to your favorite place
Do you want to go for a ride…
In the car?

Stick your head out the window
On our way to chase a shadow
I’m sure you’re bound to see
Some Hers n’ special She
I’ll play guitar, but you’ll be the star
Jump! It isn’t that far
Do you want to go for a ride
Race to your favorite place
Do you want to go for a ride…
In the car
Near or far?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Friday the 13th
Looking for strength
Perfect full moon
For the ‘tic of loon
Howling at the moon
They say
You’re baying at the moon
Longing for something you can not have
If only that moon would wane in half

Bark into the dark of night
Who causes who more fright?
At the crossroads opposite high noon
Daylight can come none too soon
Follow the pied piper’s haunting tune
Blown away by love’s typhoon
In the alley of emotions strewn
’til pining for you I become immune
Howling at the moon
They say
You’re baying at the moon
Longing for something you can not have
If only that moon would wane in half
