LYRICS
Which came first the chicken or the egg
What’s the price we pay? Arm or leg?

How could the chicken cross the road
If it didn’t proceed
Why would a chicken cross the road
How would we ever know

Which came first the chicken or the egg
What’s the price we pay? Arm or leg?

I don’t get the yoke
But that’s the way the egg rolls
I don’t get the yoke

Which came first the chicken or the egg
What’s the price we pay? Arm or leg?

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
Why did the chicken cross the road
Oh, why
Did Chicken Little fear a falling sky
Which came first the chicken or the egg
What’s the price we pay? Arm or leg?

I tell ya it’s cut throat
Chances are remote
Why did the chicken cross the road
Knowledge overload
Or knowledge underlaod

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
The End is coming
The only thing to fear is how near

The End is coming
There is no sense in running
The only thing to fear is how near

From the moment you’re born
You’re soon to learn
The only for certain
Is that I am
Marching
To some different drumming
We’re all marching
Toward the end that’s coming

Oh, my, my
We’re all gonna die
The End is coming
Only need fear how near

The only clarity
When it comes to certainty
Is the end is coming
So the only thing to fear is how near
The older you get the more it becomes clear
The only thing to fear is how near

LYRICS
I’ve been working… so hard
At playing
Working at playing

But, at least unlike a job my life it doesn’t rob
Working at playing
I’m just saying
It’s your life
You can make it into play
Or make it into strife
After all, it’s your life
I’ve been working… so hard
At playing

LYRICS
I heard Mother Earth gave birth
She has a sun
Soon…
I’d come to learn she’s gotta moon
And, the moon gave rise to the tide
And, the sun brought the energy for me
Positively relativity

I heard Mother Earth gave birth
She has a sun
Soon…
I’d learn she has a moon
And, nature for sure will endure
Though I may be be no more
She’ll endure
For billions and billions of light years
And, us mortals though mere will endear
Positively relativity to me

Positively relativity to me

LYRICS
Today a ray made its way
The might of white light
Insight in sight

Luminance intensity helps me see
Virility in me… the ability to be
In sight insight

Warmth to behold ‘less it be too cold to ever grow old
Without Her heat we could never compete to be complete
Insight insight

LYRICS
Out of the darkness
The light’s making progress
At least, the night is becoming less
And, If I’m right, there’s more daylight

Out of the shadows
Move into the light
The straight and narrows
Take flight
No more wailing. We’re in for clear sailing
No more flailing. We’re in for smooth sailing

A resolution
To find a solution
This is a new day
Put love into play
A New Year… let’s veer from fear
A New Year… steer into cheer

It’s a New Year here
Let’s steer into the clear

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Let your mind go wild
Forget the rage in the cage
Let’s your mind go wild
Forget the rage. Get out of your cage.
Partake
For goodness sake
Get into it
Into intuition

Let your mind go wild
If the mild is your style
If not, why not untangle that knot
And crank it up
Just a little bit

Be kind with your mind
It’s time to let your mind go wild
For a while
Let your mind be kind
Let your mind go wild
If you want, put your rage in a cage
But, let your mind find out
Let you mind out

Like a rabbit in a hutch
Might have the touch
Turn it up a bit, rabbit

LYRICS
[Pop!]

The bubbles rise
They float…
To the top
Then, they pop!
When they get there
They’re at home in the air
The bubbles rise
They float…
To the top
Then, they pop!

Bubbling

Bubbling toward the surface
And, suffice to say
They take on a new birth
In the atmosphere of Earth
The bubbles float…
To the top
Then, they pop!

LYRICS
Sleuth for the truth
Truth sleuth
Sleuth for truth

Better to leave your mouth shut
Then to open it up
And let it out
Removing all doubt
Fool in need of school

Sleuth for truth
Truth sleuth

If you want to find out
What it’s all about
Find a bridge
To knowledge
Knocking on the door
Doesn’t have to be the school of hard knocks
It’s not like you’re trying to rob Fort Knox
It’s free for the taking
If I’m not mistaken
It’s free for the takin’

Sleuth for truth
Truth sleuth

In The Year 2525.mp3

Coversong
Originally made famous by Zager & Evans
Written by Rick Evans

Em    In the year 2525
D     If man is still alive
C                              B7
If woman can survive they may find

Em   In the year 3535
D    Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
C    Everything you think do and say
B7   Is in the pill you took today
Em   In the year 4545
D    You ain't gonna need your teeth won't need your eyes
C    You won't find a thing to chew
B7   Nobody's gonna look at you 
Em   In the year 5555
D    Your arms hangin' limp at your sides
C    Your legs got nothin' to do
B7   Some machine's doing that for you


In the year 6565
You won't need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube
In the year 7510
If God's a comin' He oughta make it by then
Maybe He'll look around Himself and say
Guess it's time for the judgement day
In the year 8510
God is gonna shake His mighty head
He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
Or tear it down and start again woh oh  / /  / /

In the year 9595
I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
He's takin' everything this old earth can give

and he ain't put back nothin'  woh oh

(very slowly - strum each chord once)
Now it's been ten thousand years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
(faster)
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive, they may find

LYRICS
The secret to life is living
The secret to living is life
It’s not much of a secret
When you’re six feet under… buried… dead

Maybe you were misgiven
Mistaken life for livin’
Embracing strife and grievin’
Save!
Go to the grave
With no regret
While above… wonder… varied… feed your head

Searching high and low
Everywhere I go
Soul-utions

There’s got to be a Soul-ution
For our pollution
And a Soul-ution
For malnutrition

There’s got to be a Soul-ution
For the failing institution
There’s got to be a Soul-ution

For lack of education
And education Soul-ution
Cure mass manipulation
