LYRICS
The Genesis of this: Day 1
A day is a day one
How dare I stare into the eye
Of I
A fine line
Between vain
And insane
If id did let
You know
Ego
Get the best of him
Alas, too fast
Superhero
Super ego
You know
Is going to rescue you

The Genesis of this: Day 2
After daylight, night
Might shift the mood
In attitude
Though thick logic
Can’t elude
Then, me and you
The Genesis of this:
Day 2, too
Of me and you

LYRICS
Is it just me
Butt… in all his majesty
Was the emperor wearing no clothes?
Not even close?
The naked truth
Buck naked truth
Does the buck stop… hear?
Like his clothes
I suppose
That is clear
Doesn’t take a sleuth
To discover the truth
The naked truth
Doesn’t take a sleuth
To know the truth
To “no” the truth
The naked truth

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Here I go
Getting a little retro
With my, “Peace, Love & Understanding”
Well…
What’s so funny about it
Anyway?
Love to hear/here
What you have to say
(today)
Make it clear, dear
Instead of hearsay
All serious about
Money, money, money
But what’s grabbing me:
What’s so funny?
Rather skies sunny
If I’m going to “sale”
The see
So can you tell me
What’s so funny?

LYIRCS
I’m not sure you’re understanding
… not sure you can take this standing
Might want to put down
Your coffee
Might want to sit down
n’ listen to me
Might want to put down
Your drink
’cause I don’t think
You understand
What’s at hand
They’re blowing up the dam?
Damn!
(The damn dam)
Hope you know
How to go
With the flow
Looks like there going to be a flood
UP to your ears in mud
On a whim
Learn to swim?
Getting down
Getting down now
Getting down with going down
Going down stream
Know what I mean
Current in the current

LYRICS
What do I know about naught?
Not a whole lot
What is there to know?
So
What
If i don’t know
Nothing about nothing
I’ll tell you what, though
I’m looking for something
In everything
They say
Where there’s a will
There’s a way
Since my will is still
Free
It occurs to me
Instead of bide my time
I’m…
Going to spend mine
Pay the bill
With freewill

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
’tis in the twilight of the dawning
Spawning
Skepticism
In the realization
We’re all drowning
Eventually starved
Of living
However;
From now till never
The “I’m” till I transpire
The time till I expire
Is an event
Every moment
Whether running silent
Or shining brilliant
I’m going to let it shine
Shine, shine, shine

LYRICS
Good morning, sunshine!
Find it works out fine
Good morning, sunshine!
Just avoid the grind

Rise and shine
And get up another time
Rinse. Repeat.
Then back to your retreat

(chorus)

Push and shove
Trying to get above
Loop repeat
Back to your retreat

(chorus)

Another day
A dollar your way
What’s the worth
Of a sole soul’s birth?

(chorus)

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The things that scare me
Janu-hairy
Scary
Frightening me
In the eye of the beholder
It’s not me I want to see
Looking through to you
To be in beauty… full
Full of beautiful
Plain to see
Not half empty
Full!
Beautiful

[Break / Jam]

Though without a soul
It’s only skin deep
From within the whole
Won’t you let it seep
In the eye of the beholder
Hold her
In the eye, I hold her
Or maybe, it’s she…
… holding me?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In the grand scheme
What do I mean
Will it seem the scene
I’ve seen
Is left as a dream
Feel lame
Try to explain
The nightmare they hold dear
Try to explain
The pain… insane?
Why paint your dream in fear
Can’t have a spark
And it dark
Me, I’d rather see the light
In spite of spite
The light
I mean low to no mean
In my dream
Should I be a mortal
Left in total
As an immortal perpetual dream scene
If that’s how I’m seen…?

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
In a fit of passion
I’ve managed to fashion
Man in the image of God
Damn the torpedoes and spare the rod
In the time of the season
Search for rhyme in the reason
A reason… a reason to be
Life so the soul can see
With the best of intentions
Disregarding the conventions
Free of the chains and locks
Far outside of the box
Closing in on the heart of the sunrise
Dawn of the dawning I realize
In a fit of passion
I’ve managed to fashion
Man in the image of God
Damn the torpedoes and spare the rod
Man in the image of God

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Flash of a wink
Twinkle of an I
Too much think sink
Blink and bye-bye
Ship adrift at see
Can’t “be” through the fog
Trip from destiny
To clear the clog
Dog days of summer
In the Fall of life
Too nigh is slumber
This life is rife
Last that I checked
I’m not dead yet
Before the memory’s wrecked
Going to think all I can get
Flash of a wink
Going to think
Twinkle of an I
Going to think
Until the I’s rise

LYRICS
This, Leviticus is Lazarus
A resurrection
(Insurgence)
The Genesis of an Exodus
Toward Revelation
… of biblical proportion
A resurrection
A testament to the Old Testament
With a nod to the knew/new too
They told me it’d be…
Now, I’m telling you
A resurrection
(Resurgence)
… of biblical proportion
Flight from blight
In search of light
In the dark of night
Heard of hoards of herds
And swarms of forewarns

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Do you know which way
The know does flow
Do you know which way
The know does go
In one ear and right out the other,
Brother
Talk to the hand?
I don’t understand
So, much slipping through the fingers
I sure hope some lingers
Stuck to the tip of my tongue
Sure hope it comes unwrung
Starting to feel the way
In “The Ocean’s” sway
By the light of day
… the moon’s effect on the bay
In the light of day

ABOUT THE SONG
This song was inspired by Led Zeppelin’s “The Ocean”.
The Ocean is the sea of fans as seen from the stage. In concert, they would dedicate it  to the audience.
“Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean’s roar
Play for free, I play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about the good things and the sun that lights the day”

So, this is Man
The plan: destiny
This is Man
In all his glory
Oh, my God! What have we done
When all is said and done
No “one” won
When all’s said and done
Going to turn up the heat
’til the feet
Can’t outrun defeat
Hellbent, won’t relent
Surprise! Want to realize
Our demise
Everybody think — extinct
In a blink
Of an eye
In the wink
Of an I

LYRICS
For just a sample
It’s finger lickin’ good
Sure hope there’s ample
To do what we should
Scoff, when the shine wears off
Whine, when we’re out of time
No! For a change something strange
Let’s take this sample recipe
And see what can be
If it’s that friggin’ good
Let it be said
We did what we could
When put to bed
We would do what we should
Less dumb… fingers with opposing thumb
Lickin’ good
