bookmark_borderThe Morning Due

LYRICS
What shall we do
The morning dew
Is due
To be through
Put to an End
A tragic send

What can we say
The midday sway
Gone away
I heard it said
“Put to bed”
[Instrumental Break]

What did we do
The nighttime view
Obscured blurred
A mar on far
To close to home
Soon left alone

LYRICS
My heart is going to explode
Now, your heart’s my abode
The way you display your posture
I’m sure of a pure future
Through your eyes
I realize
Adapt our hope
Yes, know no nope
I can see within you
There’s a lot we can do
When I listen to what there is to say
I can see the way to the day
Raise our spirits!
Can you hear it?
Raise our spirits!

bookmark_borderCome On Back

LYRICS
Crack that whip
And make them go
If you can back it up
With what you know
[sound effects of garbage truck backing up]
The whip is just for show
Dogs and ponies in a a row
Snap the fingers
No one lingers
We’ve got a show to put on
Are you real or just a con
I love a performance from the heart
But, the conceit of deceit
I’ll have no part
Meeting the devil at the crossroads
All the souls exposed
Signed and sealed with your blood
Dust to dust back to mud

LYRICS
What color’s the sky
I mean which color of blue
In the spectrum of blue
The specific hue
The depth and breadth
Of sky blue

Red sky in morning
Sailors take warning
Red sky at night
Sailors delight

What color’s the sky
I mean which color of blue
In the spectrum of blue
The specific hue
The depth and breadth
Of sky blue
As a matter of fact
At night it’s all black
Except for pin pricks of light
Full moon brightens the nigh
Stars and mars
See mercury
Venus
Over us

What will we choose
To win or lose
Will we make or break
Give / take

What is our plan, Man
Humane human
No better than
A better then

What do we want
We can or can’t
Will we truth or fake
Give / take

What is our plan, Man
Humane human
No better than
A better then

What will we be
Enslaved or free
To be less opaque

What is our plan, Man
Humane human
No better than
A better then

bookmark_borderSummertimes

LYRICS
The summertime is flying by
Can’t reason when. Can’t reason why
Seems like we all did just begin
Sure hope to live to see it again

I don’t know what I’m suppose to say
Still thought it was the month of May
Seems like we all did just begin
Sure hope to live to see it again

I just woke up to see the time
Now, hear me cray and hear me whine
Seems like we all did just begin
Sure hope to live to see it again

The summertime has wound on down
Sure hope to see you next time ’round
Seems like we all did just begin
Sure hope to live to see it again

LYRICS
Yeah, the top dog hopped upon his spot
No, his name’s not spot
It’s not
It’s knot
Top dog
He’s the top dog
Jumped upon my bed
On top
Decides to lay his head
… on… my bed
On top
Now, he’s the top dog
I’m the man cog
He’s the top dog
Knot tied tight
Knot tied right
Not naughty
Not knot
Good dog?
Great dog.
Top dog
He’s a great dog
Rate dog: top dog
