Gumption

Posted on March 4, 2015March 4, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
All filled up with gumption
Humane presumption

Well then give it a go
Let the energy flow

Do unto others?
Betrayed by Brothers
Can’t claim they don’t know
Jihad’s God’s foe

The Bible… Torah, too
And, again in the Quran
Thou shalt not kill
Another’s freewill
[Under direct order not to murder]

Roses Are Read

Roses Are Red Music Video.mp4

LYRICS
Look! Everything’s coming up roses
Looking through my rose-colored glasses

One supposes
Even the politicians don’t appear as asses
No such luck
They’re still looking dumb as….

Still
An optimistic perception
Will
Give rise to immaculate conception
’cause Holy $hit… that’s it!
Time to birth an idea with worth

Look! Everything’s coming up roses
Looking through my rose-colored glasses
The roses are read
Pessimism’s dead

Roses Are Read Songwriting and Recording

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 2
Em A7
Em G Am C

A song about having faith in government… and society.

The Kill (Bury Me)

Posted on March 3, 2015March 9, 2015 by admin

Made famous by 30 Seconds To Mars
Written by Jared Leto

C                     D
What if I wanted to break,  
                       Em
Laugh it all off in your face,
               Bm
What would you do?
C                     D
What if I fell to the floor,
                      Em   
Couldn’t take this anymore,
               Bm
What would you do?

Chorus
C              D
Come break me down,

Bury me, bury me   
Em                 Bm
I am finished with you,

Verse 2
C                     D
What if I wanted to fight,  
                       Em
Beg for the rest of my life,
               Bm
What would you do?
C                     D
You say you wanted more,
                      Em   
What are you waiting for?
               Bm
I'm not running from you,

  
    
C              D
Come break me down,

Bury me, bury me,   
Em                 Bm
I am finished with you,
C                D
Look   in   my  eyes,   

You’re killing me, killing me,  
Em               Bm
All I wanted was you,

Bridge:
  C            D      Em
I tried to be someone else,
    G                 C
But nothing seemed to change,
  D          Em            G        C
I know now, this is who I really am inside,
        D        Em
Finally found myself,
G              C
Fighting for a chance,
  D         Em           C
I know now, this is who I really am,

C              D
Come. Break me down,

Bury me, bury me,   
Em                 Bm
I am finished with you,
C                D
Look   in   my  eyes,   

You’re killing me, killing me,  
Em               Bm
All I wanted was you.

Hi

Hi.mp3

LYRICS
If you’re…
If you are wondering
Whether to go lower
Or get high

You’re taking the low road?
I’ll take the high road
Ya wanna take the low road?
Let’s take the high road

If you’re wondering
If you are pondering
If you’re in confusion
Keep living for giving
If you’re wondering
If you are pondering
If it’s illusion
Keep living for giving

Hate erode
Take the high road
Lovin’ mode
Take the high road

And, we’ll get to Scotland together
Live forever
Understand in the promised land

Hi! High road

Beyond Your Cage

Posted on March 1, 2015April 1, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
First time, last time
What will it be
First time, last time
Set yourself free

Once you unlock your cage door
You’ll never go back to the way it was before

It’s not too late to push that gate
Why wait… push open that gate
Let your inside out
Find out no doubt

Don’t hesitate! Push open the gate!
Through the threshold — you
Let your inside out
Feel free to move about

Need Vs. Want.mp3

LYRICS
Can’t you see there’s a need
Are you gonna make me plead
The time is ripe to concede
Love — everyone wants some

Don’t act dumb
Stick in your thumb
Pull out a plumb
And, let that guitar strum

Coo like a mourning dove
Want your love
Need your love

At any rate
Stick in your thumb
Pull out a plumb
And, lay the facts out straight

She loves me. She loves me not.
Want your love. Need your love.
She loves me. Glad that I’ve got.
Want your love. Need your love… Lucky for me… she loves me.

Beyond a Shadow of a Doubt

Posted on February 27, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Once you let your brain out
You realize beyond a shadow of a doubt
Once you open your eyes
You realize
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
What it’s all about

Once you let your brain out
Of your self-imposed cage
The same cage that does enrage
You realize
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
What life’s all about

I Must Be In Heaven.mp3

LYRICS
Am I in heaven
Without being dead
As these mortal thoughts
Penetrate my head

Chorus
The hypocrites so hypocritical
They’re gonna shut their own … (You’re letting us down)
Hypocrite equals political
Severely sadistical clown

Sign of the beckon
Nod — yes is said
No more “why nots”
Time freedom is fed

Am I in heaven
Do Overlords fail
Bureaucrat robot
Tiger eats it’s tail

Sigh… oh, the beckon
Nod — yes! We hail
No more brain rot
Freedom needs a wail!
