bookmark_borderHectic Rhetoric

LYRICS
Try not to let the rhetoric
Ever get you down
Put my faith in the music
Found heaven in the sound
Shine insight
Into the light

If it gets too hectic
Then to slow it down
The rhythm of the music
Found the pace in sound
Shine insight
Into the light

When the atmosphere is septic
No fear to flush it down
Rise up with the music
Elevate with sound
Shine insight
Into the light

LYRICS
Slingshot around the closest star
See how far we really are
Gravity assist trajectory
Maneuver man-overboard
Year upon year upon year upon year upon year
Turn into light year smear
How does time appear?
… the years appear to smear…
Years appear smeared

LYRICS
Once you see
How good our lives could be
Hunch you’ll be
Running to set us free
The bargain’s in the basement
Get down and look around
Elevate for amazement
Get up, turn up the sound

Ounce of prevention
A pound of cure
A revelation
Astound us more
The bargain’s in the basement
Get down and look around
Elevate for amazement
Get up, turn up the sound

Source of fulfillment
Still lies within
Make the commitment
Under the skin
The bargain’s in the basement
Get down and look around
Elevate for amazement
Get up, turn up the sound

LYRICS
Down is up and up is down
What we’ll be will soon be found
The dirt’s in the sky
The sky’s on the ground
Won’t make good to cry
Made our cage now bound

Down is up and up is down
What we’ll be will soon be found
River in the sky
Is bound to come down
Won’t make good to lie
The sea’s above the ground

Down is up and up is down
What will be we’ll soon be found
Can’t breath the sky
It’s a cause to die
Best to reason sound
While above the ground

bookmark_borderGale Wail

LYRIC
Once we set sail
What is our tale
Wallow and wail
Ride out the gale
Will the going get tough
The seas are rough
Can we ride out the storm
Better sound the alarm
Less harm

What is our tale?
Said we couldn’t fail
Never does fail
Flew of the rails
Will the going get tough
The seas are rough
Can we ride out the storm
Better sound the alarm
Less harm

Wallow and wail
Legs surround tail
Coffin’s last nail
End of our tale
Will the going get tough
The seas are rough
Can we ride out the storm
Better sound the alarm
Less harm

LYRICS
Milk, milk milky way
Star spangled fray
What turns by day
Ignites the night
It’s one race
Humans set the pace
There’s one earth
Where we all gave birth
The same verse
There’s one universe
Plain to see
From our galaxy

Our closest star
Isn’t that far
Call it the sun
Our annual run
It’s one race
Humans set the pace
There’s one Earth
Where we all gave birth
The same verse
There’s one universe
Plain to see
From our galaxy

Didn’t plan it
Landed planet
Luck in my stars
Venus and Mars
It’s one race
Humans set the pace
There’s one earth
Where we all gave birth
The same verse
There’s one universe
Plain to see
From our galaxy

LYRICS
Hope you don’t mind if I butt in
But it’s dancing time
To waste a moment to begin
Would be a real crime
(… a sin)
Show the flow
Sink your feet into the beat
Remover your butt from the seat
Jump up and down
Move around
[Repeat]
Start the show
Feel the flow
Get to know

Hope you don’t mind if I butt in
But play one more song
Play it and play it again
Can’t go wrong
If you make it long
Show the flow
Sink your feet into the beat
Remover your butt from the seat
Jump up and down
Move around
[Repeat]
Start the show
Feel the flow
Get to know

Sure as day
Bearing sums

LYRICS
Cookin’ in devil’s stew
What’s a poor soul to do
Before two-twelve’s in view
I’d jump if I were you
Unless you want to share it
With potatoes and a carrot
Perhaps it’s time to cut ties
Forego do or dies

Under ole satin’s spell
Cast at a wishing well
Should have thought before
Careful what you wish for
Joined the zombie brigade
Forever casting shade
Perhaps it’s time to cut loose
Head out of hangman’s noose

LYRICS
Been here before
You abhor war?
I really don’t know where to begin
Man upon Man again and again
Definin’ sin

Still back for more
Not enough gore
I really don’t know where to begin
Man upon Man again and again
Definin’ sin

It reigns the poor
The same ole’ tour
It rips and roars
We have no more more
(no more)
I really don’t know where to begin
Man upon Man again and again
Definin’ sin

LYRICS
Sitting on the edge of the world
Spinning round
Watching modern civilization
Falling down
Before their time
What a crime
Are you cryin’
I know I’m….

Sitting on the verge of deep space
Spinning round
Watching the human race
Coming down
Before their time
What a crime
Are you cryin’
I know I’m….

Shout out about the situation
Going round
Watching the population
Winding down
Before their time
What a crime
Are you cryin’
I know I’m….

bookmark_borderTigers Holler

LYRICS
The story that I bought was flimsy
Didn’t come with a warranty
The verdict that they wrought “not guilty”
Doesn’t come with a guarantee
You can bet your bottom dollar
Grab her toe and tigers holler

Facts and truth are bought and sold
That story’s growing old
Can’t believe half of what you’re told
Reality’s harsh and cold
You can bet your bottom dollar
Grab her toe and tigers holler

Are your gods of happiness stingy
A smile we seldom see
If your outlook’s looking dingy
Clear to where you want to be
You can bet your bottom dollar
Grab her toe and tigers holler

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Catch a tiger and let her know
If you holler, let her go
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe

You can bet your bottom dollar
Grab her toe and tigers holler

There’s something I’m really dying to know
If you don’t go down fighting
Do you go down slow
Do you slowly fade away

Unconscious of day-to-day (today)
While stuck betwixt

There’s something I’m really dying to know
If you go down fighting
Do you go down low
Do you slowly fade away
Wade in the river Styx
Unconscious of day-to-day (today)
While stuck betwixt

There’s something I’m really dying to know
If you give up enlightening
Will you lose your glow
Do you slowly fade away
Wade in the river Styx
Unconscious of day-to-day (today)
While stuck betwixt
