LYRICS
The little mind’s eye that thought he could
Gonna chug it
Gonna plug it
Gonna take that ride to the other side

Let your soul express omniscience
Birth life’s essence
Essential to spiritual experience

The little mind’s eye that knew he would
Eye think I can
Eye think I can
Gonna take that ride to the other side

LYRICS
I fear it’s none too clear
The atmosphere is none too clear
Oh, dear!

If you hold life dear
Check out the atmosphere

Afraid to begin to breath in
If I can find out how to just breath out
Gonna die
Crazy to know why

The ambiance of the atmosphere
I fear is none too clear
Everything that I hold dear
It’s time to fear

None too Clear Atmosphere (Official Soundcheck).mp3

Behave
Rave
It’s an evolution revolution

Rave behave
When you behave as though a rave
Evolution revolution solution

If you can just start one heart,
You’re doing your part
If you can just start one heart,
You’re doing your part

That’s how to behave when your rave
Against the machine
Know what I mean?

You wipe the sheen off the plastic gleam
Ya know it’s more than a random chance
More than romance
Evolution revolution

Everybody behave like a rave

LYRICS
Ain’t no joke
Going for broke
… when you’re broke

Going for broke

Not your average bloke
When going for broke
A bloke of a different colour
Let’s here ya holler

When you’re chained, bound and cuffed
Then you’ll know how rough

When you’re broke…
No, it ain’t no joke
Going for broke

When the going get rough
The rough gets tough

Think quick
Before ya blink
Select your best pick
Think!

As sinking turns to sunk
We should’a already thunk
Our atmosphere ain’t fit
To breath the tiniest bit

It’s time to debunk
Social realists
Bring on the funk

Giving Earth a chance

No matter where I roam
We’ll always be at home
You’re in me
And, I’m in you
Easy to see
No matter what we do

Under the thin skin
You’re bubblin’ within’
Under the thin skin
Here for your servin’
Hear for your servin’

No matter forebodings loom
You’ll conquer soon
You’re over me
I’m under you
Easy to see
What we’ll do

LYRICS
It’s not a joke
All of us will croak
But, like the Crocus
All of us
Can spring forth again
Like an Iris I am

It’s OK to be a Pansy
When you spring to life so easily
Sun or part shade
No need to be afraid
Moist, well drained
Voiced, well brained

Sprout like a Daffodil
Get your life’s fill
Don’t take a toll on your soul
Narcissus ilk not narcissistic
Trumpet birth in the Spring
And, the sprouting it will bring

Before ya know it, you’ll be feeling fine

LYRICS
Up in smoke
Ain’t no joke

Did you see the calamity
Of the puzzle monkey tree?
Oh, you know what’s puzzling me
Unseen inevitability

Up in smoke
Ain’t no joke

The way we spew our debris
Like we’re the champs of society
Coming back a little too fast
Gonna kick me in the ass

Up in smoke
Ain’t no joke

In the midst of demon fits
Gonna smash it all to bits
Kiss of death on our lips
Human induced apocalypse

Up in smoke
Ain’t no joke

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords
B E Am
Am D7

A verse inspired by the wildfires in Chile burning in the forests of 1,000 old puzzle monkey trees. (At least the government of Chile recognizes it as the effects of human induced climate change.) Another verse is inspired by the ISIS destruction of ancient artifacts in Syria using sledgehammers and bulldozers. I guess you could say the song is about human induced destruction of everything.

Araucaria araucana — commonly called the monkey puzzle tree
The origin of the popular English language name ‘monkey puzzle’ derives from its early cultivation in Britain in about 1850, when the species was still very rare in gardens and not widely known. Sir William Molesworth, the proud owner of a young specimen at Pencarrow garden near Bodmin in Cornwall was showing it to a group of friends, one of them – the noted barrister and Benthamist Charles Austin remarked, “It would puzzle a monkey to climb that”. [Because it takes a 1,000 years for them to grow, young specimens are tiny.] As the species had no existing popular name, first ‘monkey puzzler’, then ‘monkey puzzle’ stuck. — Wikipedia

LYRICS
Would your rather die
Or would you rather fly
Is it silly askin’ why?

’cause I heard when you die you fly
A miracle… something special
Flight of a newborn angel

Would you rather die
To reach the promised land in the sky?
’cause I heard heaven’s on Earth this birth

Would you rather die or rather fly
I’ve heard your can do both
(Why risk the wrath)
But ya know what… you might find out the hard way
’cause I heard say
Heaven’s on this Earth
Heaven’s of this birth

Ya know? Why not come out of the shadow?

LYRICS
Are you afraid of the dark?
Ignite a brain spark

Why be afraid of what you don’t know
Why not let to grow

The point you may miss
Ignorance ain’t bliss

Why be afraid of what you don’t know
Give it a chance to grow

Harbor hatred for your foe?
Why not let them go

Why be afraid of what you don’t know
Give love a chance to glow
