LYRICS
Chalk it up to inexperience
Now, that we’re experienced
Let’s dance
The brilliance of our biological science
The appearance of serious glorious
Loving the circumstance
Allowing us to dance
Experience dance
The mysterious Age Of Aquarius
Delirious, delirium, deliverance
Now, that we’re experienced dance
Resilience perseverance endurance experience
Dance

bookmark_borderBut, I Am Meat

Scene: Enlightenment comes to a vegan convention. A participant comes to the realization they are meat. Then, another participant overhears the realization and says, “But, I am meat.” A discussion ensues about who should be meat #1 and who should be meat #2.

LYRICS
But, I am meat
And I’m glad to meet you
Meat, too
But, I am meat
Glad to meet you, too
Meat, too
I must admit at the heart of it I’m really just a giant hunk of meat
On two hooves… we’re sheep dressed as wolves
I try not to speak with forked tongue, but when it’s all said and done…
I suppose the plants will have won
I suppose as I decompose… we’ll have become one
As we become one, and the plants eat me… I’m starting to see my destiny — I am meat
Great… greet the meat as I meet and greet you, too… meat, too.

LYRICS
Swimming through the stars on our way through the Milky Way
Beaming lights take flight at the speed of light
Traveling light years away. Traveling day-by-day.

Reflection Of The Sun
Reflection Of The Sun

A light year per year… just bring along some atmosphere
186,000 miles per second… reckon Earthlings’ beacon beckons
Our reflection from the sun… 365 days = light year 1
The action of refraction bending it some
Our reflection of the sun
Burn, Baby, burn… run, run, run

Traveling at the speed of light… might our light shine bright
As we become a reflection of the sun

Help! I heard you call my name
How can life ever be the same?

You brought me into this world
Might as well stay ’til I checkout
I rot as I grow old
Gotta fight to win this bout

Sooner or later we’re all going to die
Later not sooner is how I’m going to try
The next time I see ya… I’d like to say “hi”
Beats tears and fears of saying “good-bye”

LYRICS
This 2-D picture just won’t do
Want to add depth… get 3-D with you
The length will get board
The width… two notes of a chord
Find harmony with me… 3D
Add me and I’ll be 3-D with you
Three dimensional
Intentional unconventional

When you wiggle in a line… that’s fine
And, on the insides of your sides… love resides
But, I’ve found… I love to find your mound (love to have found your mound)
Length, width and depth
Delight in the height
That 3-D view
Wanna get 3-D with you

Going in deep
No slumber, no sleep
Makin’ that three dimensional leap
No depth without steep
Going to climb that mountain
Of fortune and grin
Going in deep, again

I don’t want you to go
I don’t want you to stay
And, that’d be OK on any other day

No silent treatment
Nor irate rant
Fear that you can… fear that you can’t

Woke up this morning
The sun was gone
It wouldn’t be long ’til you came along
The sky goes dark
As you embark
Love charade raining on my parade

LYRICS
The worms squirm
As you go insane
Infestation of the brain
Worms squirm
Your turn to learn
Infestation of the brain
Going insane (He’s going crazy. Ain’t it plain to see?)
Now there’s nothing to gain… everything to lose
What will you choose?
The worms squirm
As you go insane
Infestation of the brain
Worm of the ear
Now it’s all you can hear
The worms crawl in as you begin
The worms crawl out as you find out
The meaning of doubt
The worms crawl in. The worms crawl out.
Won’t be long ‘fore the flies play pinochle on your snout
No doubt
The worms squirm

Row: To take part in a noisy quarrel or disturbance.

LYRICS
Getting in a bout over what it’s all about
At any rate trying to agitate
Trying to combat where we’re at
Wow! Getting in a row over how
No time to quarrel about what’s immoral
Woah! We already know
No need to fight about what is right
’cause no good will come form trying to spite
After all, doesn’t it seem like we’re on the same team
We’re all part of the worldwide scheme
On the same side for our Earthly ride
And, well… we don’t wanna end up in hell
Better begin trying to get into heaven
Time to get along as we get along
’cause we won’t be ’round for very long
Life’s too short to spend in International Criminal Court
See our tragedy in the ICC

LYRICS
None to soon
We’ll be living on the moon
On our way through the stars
Maybe make home on mars

But the moon’s not mine
Can I mine the moon
And, do we want to leave our scars on mars?

Space debris as far as the eye can see
Another giant hunk of space junk
Orbital debris — a mess due to humanity
Humans have a taste for space waste
Leaving us the curse of the universe
Aliens will be left in strife
If they come looking for intelligent life
Come on, Man! Can “leave no trace”
Be our motto for space

Europe and Russia announced their joint plan to colonize the moon for the purpose of mining. From the moon, man would launch humans further out into space. NASA recently announced its plans for manned missions to mars.

Space debris, also known as orbital debris, space junk and space waste, is the collection of manmade defunct objects in orbit around Earth. This includes spent rocket stages, old satellites and fragments from disintegration, erosion and collisions. Since orbits overlap with new spacecraft, debris may collide with operational spacecraft.

As of 2009 about 19,000 pieces of debris larger than 5 cm (2 in) are tracked, while an estimated 300,000 pieces larger than 1 cm exist….

Where all this indecision
Resulted in our collision
Then, the vision

LYRICS
Would you like to see a show?
Do you know
If there is still
Something that will thrill?

For one thin dime… one tenth of a dollar
You’ll have the chance to holler
Something eye-popping and jaw-dropping
You’ll have the chance to holler
You’ll be on your feet just like that
Turned acrobat from seeing and acrobat like that
You’ll be on your feet and holler
“eye-popping and jaw-dropping”
Like not having to eat your meat to have your pudding

If you’re skeptical about the spectacle
I guarantee there’s a guarantee
We’re happy to offer double or nothing
You can go in for free, but if it’s worth seeing
You’ll give double the money to me
Believe me… it’s well worthwhile to see
Check it our for a while
You’ll be be adorning a mile wide smile

After all, one day we all have our curtain call
