LYRICS
I should have known
The way the crow’s flown
When I filled my cup up
Too much, such…
A thing would happen
Overflow
There you go…
Overflow

LYRICS
If that’s the way you want it
That’s the way you get it
If that’s what you want
That’s what you get
I don’t know how far you can go
Before it comes ’round and bites you in the ass
Trash sass thrash
Got no class
Careful what you wish for…
Might realize your dreams
When you wish for more, more, more
Seems too much it deems
Gluttony
God save me!
They say “easy come, easy go”
I don’t know what you know
Seeds you sow
Reap your woe

LYRICS
Can you feel the essence
Through the thickness
Of the air
Can you seal existence
Effortlessness
Become aware
Gasping for air
The absurdity of the humidity
Don’t know how much
I can bear
Don’t know how much
I can wear
The absurdity of the humanity
Don’t know how much
I can dare

LYRICS
Did it once… upon a time
Now the time is mine
Bring on “let freedom ring”
Let me hear you sing
Ring it in in the morning
Ring it in in the evening
Ringing in fair warning
Freedom is a fragile thing
The cracks are disturbing
Freedom is an agile thing
The promises alluring
Every day it slips away
No matter what you say
It’s what you do… that’s heartfelt true
That defines you

LYRICS
Giving me the bird’s-eye view
Yes, that is what you do
Squawk talk
Cock your head
Sit there and stare
Making me squirm
Regurgitating worm
Into the mouth of the babe
You wade
Into the mouth of the babe
You made
Less we forget the rest
Sooner of later… empty nest
Not chicken… flew the coop
Now, mama’s out of the loop
Maybe then the evil eye
Will die

LYRICS
It’s not really the fall
It’s not really the fall at all
The descent from the top
Doesn’t hurt at all
In The End, it’s the sudden stop!
When you hear the thunder roll
Know you’re not lightning’s toll
It’s not the loud clap of the cloud
It’s that bolt that gives the jolt
Never tire of hearing a screeching tire
Unless at last, it ends with a crash
When you call this a near miss
Experience bliss
Will the power devour?
Our chances are…
Our chances our are chances
Advice: think twice
Before doing rain dances

LYRICS
You can sense the clouds’ power
As they tower
Ominous must
When the could bursts bust
It’s going down
The falling down
Belittle Chicken Little?
The sky IS falling
Man, this is no boy
Wolf calling
Hey diddle diddle man in the moon
Can you tell me soon
Need a cat with a fiddle
Dogging on spoons
Answer the riddle
Is it going down
Is it coming down

LYRICS
Sure, cause all of that jive
Dive into a bee hive
Confess, what a mess
Caught in a state of undress
Now, I hear you moan
Leave well enough alone
Would of, could of, should of
Left well enough alone
Now, the ego is prone
Relationship we call “our”
Is a delicate flower

OH, Lady, please take me
To that promised place…
In the sky

LYRICS
We’ve got enough nuts
… but what about the jam?
Enough if’s, and’s & butts
But where’s the jam
That’s where I am
If we’re going to get a…
Sand… which?
Land… which?
Understand which?
We’ve got “a” nuts,
Be nuts
See nuts
D, e, f, gee, h, I, j, k, l, m, n, o, pee
Nuts
But where’s the jam
I though you said there was a jam?
Now, here I am….

LYRICS
Have you heard of “no brainer”
This no brainer is a strainer
Scratchin’ my head
Over what he said
Living in delusion
Lively up yourself, don’t be no dread now
Beating on a horse already dead now
Seems to be a lack of marrow
’cause the cavity is too narrow
Solid bone from ear-to-ear
Lack of gray matter I do fear

LYRICS
Come it hell
Because, well
In high water
What’s the matter
If you’re nailed down
You’re going to drown
Wading in… into the flood
Covered by… covered by mud
Better run around
Hatches battened down
When the water’s on the rise
Puts perspective on your size
Soaking in it… up to my eyes
Seems like all will dishevel
Now that we’re past flood level
Come high water
Come it hell

LYRICS
Do you hear what I hear?
What we need here
… is a superman
More powerful than a loco’s motive
Able to stop a speeding bull$hit
I hear what we need here is a superman
Up, up and away
Here we go
What do you say
Do you know?
Nothing to fear
Grasp the cape of superman
Someway, somehow
What we need now
… is a superman
Look up in the sky
No need to ask why
Not fowl nor fuselage
At large
… superman

LYRICS
An amazing thing
To hear her sing
Giving choice
Wisdom wealth
With a voice
Yet no mouth
It comes out
… comes about
Travelin’ in time
Through space
Weaving sublime
Queen Anne’s lace
A beautiful thing
Listen to her sing
A soulful “nice”
Heartfelt stealth
With a voice
Yet no mouth
It comes out
… comes about
Travelin’ in time
Through space
Weaving sublime
Queen Anne’s lace
A lovely thing
Sing anything
Picture poise
Nature’s health
With a voice
Yet no mouth
It comes out
… comes about
Travelin’ in time
Through space
Weaving sublime
Queen Anne’s lace
With a voice
Yet no mouth
It comes out
… comes about

LYRICS
Pack up your O2 and gravity
If you want to come with me
’cause where we’re going
There is no trace
Steadfast in the vast
Depths of space
Matador, open the door
Take the bull by the horns
Less your entrails they adorn
Will we ever, ever learn?
Bring along friction and relativity
Alien diction for clarity
’cause where we’re going
There is no trace
Steadfast in the vast
Depths of space
Hoping that one of us is genius
Alas, this giant rocket science
And where we’re going there is no race
Steadfast in the vast
Depths of space
