LYRICS
All the malfeasance
Humanitarian treasons
Decadence residence
Resonates in hate
Dredge the pledge
… of allegiance
All the wrong doing
Humanity travesty
To hell we’re going
A political catastrophe
From sea to declining see
See?!?!?!

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
First strikes the bolt of lightning
Follows the crack of thunder
Doesn’t it make you wonder
If sound and light are fighting?
Am I fast enough
To pick up my stuff
And get out of the reign
Am I smart enough
To call the bluff
And get our of the reins
(The bridle of the Bible. Amen.)
Come into existence
At the same instant
Yet come to me at a different rate
I guess you had to separate
… from a seed into a plant
(chorus)

LYRICS
There is nothing to fear
Why there’s nothing to fear here
Isn’t clear
Even stranger
Is the clear and present danger
Has no manager
Just a fool with a deadly tool
Far out-of-control
As a matter of fact
Off the tracks
Full body roll
After all the virus among us
Has gone viral
For real
In the thickness of the sickness
The President hellbent
Mentally absent
(chorus)

LYRICS
Despite all my trying
There’s still people dying
Due to “unkind closed mind”
The science denying
Leaves me crying
Has freedom left us dumb… numb?
Is your God calling you home
Crawl into your catacomb
Place pennies on your eyes
Watch “the unwise dies”
Ignorance harbors no borders
Despite my explaining
They’re still complaining
Shut-in and sufferin’
Still fail to see
The reality
Has freedom left us dumb… and numb?

LYRICS
The “ism” of hypocricy
Is the ego in our democracy
Let the heart take part
To negate the hate
Radiate
The love of light
(Glowing in the twilight of insight)
Out of the shadows
Into the meadows
Of the mind
Inherent of the kind that’s kind
Comes to mind
… I find

LYRICS
Jeopardize with lies
And ties
With the underground
Real eyes realize
Grounded found
Cast the die
(Alas, the die is cast)
Cast the dies
Real eyes realize
Freedom dies
Jeopardize
One size
Fits all
The rise
The fall

LYRICS
The ship of our see
Heading toward tragedy
Over the falls
Building of walls
Thick rhetoric
Making us sick
Speaking in forked tongues
Of bogus battles won
Best at beating our chests
For poisoning our lungs
Won and done
’till our did
Is diddly squat
’till our did
Is not
Thick rhetoric
Making us sick

From the album Hear Me Out
LYRICS
Of all the low down dirty
Looks like the gloves are off
Heard it from a lil’ birdy
Sad tale of flame and moth
A question for you
Have ya really thought this one through?
A yellow-bellied pansy
Against a chicken gone crazy
A ruby-throated zombie
Thrown in as referee
A question for you
Have ya really thought this one through?
Front row ringside
Watching fate collide
Now something you’ve come to know
The need to wear a gore poncho
A question for you
Have ya really thought this one through?

LYRICS
Don’t know when I’ll be back
Going off on a fact-check
That the heck?
So, I’ll ask you
How long to view
For what is true
When there’s no truth
What’s my time worth?
Don’t know when I’ll be back
Going off on a fact-check
That the heck?
Your power to deceive
Your prowess in deceit
For what it’s worth
To speak the truth
Going off on a fact-check
Don’t know when I’ll be back

LYRICS
Humbled…
In your presence
I mumbled,
“Your loyal peasant.”
I serve at your will
Deserve to serve
Without you…
I’m nil
Indent
Servant
“Have none. Will Travel.”
In the event,
I may…
After all,
I’m going that way
Indentured
Indent sure
Servant, Sir, vent!
The movement
Of the people
From the steeple

LYRICS
I don’t know about the cause
But after the alarm
The reason for pause…
Old white men in control
Cause out-of-control
(in, out, in, out-of-control)
I don’t know about the cause
But resulting in harm
Turns us to was
Old white men in control
Caused out-of-control
(in, out, in, out-of-control)
Sounding the alarm for years
[howling and sirens]
Spreading and shedding tears
Now you tell me…
None can see?
Nobody hears?
Old white men in control
Chose out-of-control
(in, out, in, out-of-control
… guess that’s how they roll)
Most shockin’ —
At the peril of their own kin
… the demise of their own tribe
Too late to think to learn to think
EXTINCT!
