LYRICS
Walking around with a bag pulled over your head
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Sitting around feeling bad over what’s been said
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Lying around just wishing you’d stayed in bed
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

Hanging around just waiting ’till you are dead
Time to dismiss that gnarly dread
You won’t miss the negativity
Feel the bliss of spontaneity

LYRICS
Setting off a spark in your brain
Sensing there’s a shark in your lane
Wow! Look at him
You’d better swim
Before you’re a snack
From a shark attack

After my board started flipping
I’m ananamumana… “I am tripping”
Wow! Look at him
You’d better swim
Before you’re a snack
From a shark attack

See that fin? I’m punching in
Ensure a lesser white will win
Wow! Look at him
You’d better swim
Before you’re a snack
From a shark attack

Oh so happy! I survive
Oh so happy I’m alive

ABOUT THE SONG

Em Em7 Em7(11)

A song about “Mick Fanning: Shark Attacks Surfer During Final of J-Bay Open Competition in South Africa”. “I just saw fins. I was waiting for the teeth,” Fanning, who was not injured in the attack, told Sky News Sunday. Following the attack, the World Surf League canceled the remainder of the competition. Mick punched the shark and got away. “I’m happy to not even compete ever again,” Fanning told a reporter after he was brought back to the safety of the beach by a boat. “I just want to let all my family and friends know, I’m okay,” he said. “I’m just tripping out.”

Written and recorded under the trees in Marshall Square Park, West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania.

LYRICS
Dreaming of a life of ease
Swinging beneath the trees
Hoping a summer breeze
Will cool me

Chorus
And that humans
Will be humane again
That all being
Will let their love begin

Scheming up how to applaud
Debunking of all the fraud
Justice from narrow to broad
Gets God’s nod

Chorus

Listening to the music play
The Message… wouldn’t ya say?
Maybe today’s the day
We may play

LYRICS
3 billion miles away
Did you think we’d see they day
Ya know… Pluto?

Messages at the speed of light
Travel home in half a night
Gone to… Pluto

Do you feel Goofy being that far-out
Do you feel Goofy being that spaced-out
Maybe we’ll find out what we’re all about
Our origin of life beyond doubt

3 billion miles away
Did you think we’d see they day
Ya know… Pluto?

Mountains of water could be our Mother
May need not look further
Pluto

Do you feel Goofy being that far-out
Do you feel Goofy being that spaced-out
Maybe we’ll find out what we’re all about
Our origin of life beyond doubt

LYRICS
Skip to my lou my darling
Do you know how to do-si-do
Promenade home
All the way home
(You’re always at home)

Dancing the dance of the living
… with you where ever you go
Promenade home
All the way home
(You’re always at home)

Swing your heart blur round and round
’till your true love you have found
Promenade home
All the way home
(You’re always at home)

Put your left ventricle in
Put your ventricle out
Turn yourself about
Take your heart for a spin
Promenade home
All the way home
(You’re always at home)

There’s so many ways
To dance through your days
… your dancing days

Promenade home
All the way home
(You’re always at home)

Avoid the bumber
Seek out the strummer
In tune with one
Is where ya wanna be

Avoid the stinger
Seek out the singer
Music has won
It’s who you want to be

Harmony is coming on fast
Pain n’ sufferin’ ain’t gonna last
… ain’t gonna last

Avoid ironies
Tickle the ivories
Find what you please
While playing the keys

Avoid the drama
Seek out the drummer
Get with the beat
Jump out of you seat

Harmony is coming on fast
Pain n’ sufferin’ ain’t gonna last
… ain’t gonna last

The way to a better way

Shoo! Bye!
Oh my my
Shoo! Fly!
You’re buggin’ me

Who let the dogs out
What’s all this wining about
With questions so easy
Can stand it… barely
Without the slightest doubt
The most annoying shout
With rhetoric so sleazy
Making me feel queasy

LYRICS
God, I love the kids
The love the kids give
Pour their soul
Like water through a sieve
Turnin’ “should haves” to dids

Gotta love the kids’ love
What more could ya think of?

I don’t care if it’s a dollar or dime
Or maybe just a bit of your time
Maybe your favorite rock or shell
Doesn’t matter to me… it’s all just as well

Gotta love the kids’ love
What more could ya think of?

If ya lend me an ear
Or ya fancy a dance
Just gotta be near
Or feel life’s romance

Gotta love the kids’ love
What more could ya think of?

LYRICS
Which way’s up
Which way’s down
When we’re spinnin’
Round and round

If we dig straight through to China
Is it upside-down, kind-a?
If I stand on my head at night
Will that bring on daylight?

Chorus

If I land on the moon
Will I learn all too soon
That gravity alone
Gives direction a new home

Chorus

If I’m living in space
Has direction no trace
Then are we adrift
No long uplift

Oh no
If the know doesn’t grow

The gap in the skull narrows
The gap in freewill widens
Bringing on tomorrow’s sorrows
Our thoroughfare dead-ends

Oh no
If the know doesn’t grow

Distance to the edge narrows
Understanding bridge widens
Bringing on tomorrow’s sorrows
Our one-way street dead-ends

Oh no
If the know doesn’t grow

The dire strait narrows
The die or mate widens
Bringing on tomorrow’s sorrows
Our storybook “The Ends”

Oh no
If the know doesn’t grow

Through your bird’s-eye-view
You’ve seen talk talked
Now watch walk walked

With your head half cocked

So thick
So sick
You’re such a dirty liar
Not as though the situation is dire
Not burnt at the stake… set on fire

Why such a liar
So much a liar

You’re such a dirty liar
Just that
Big fat
You’re such a dirty liar
