Man In The Machine Music Video.mp4
LYRICS
The teeth of the saw
Chew through
The eye-of-a-needle
Sees you
Hey, Ma and Pa
Am I just feeble?
It’s time to come clean
There’s a man in the machine
The mouth of the river
Flows foul
The arm of the law
Isn’t just
Justice turned to lust
Makes ya shiver
It’s time to come clean
There’s a man in the machine

Drip, drip, drip
There we go
As drops turns to flow
Drib, drib, drib

Then we shine, shine, shine… shine on fine
There we glow

LYRICS
Is it fair to suggest you’re addicted to air?
Will you share… or afraid to go there?
Is it just to say that eating’s a must?
As you need to nourish flesh
Or else you’ll be a mess
If you don’t nourish
Your soul
It will take a toll…
Once you invoke your spirit
You’ll never want it to quit

LYRICS
Once I was in love
With just one human being
Then after seeing
Wonder how monogamy won?
Would much rather
That love from above
Then to gather
Pain from a strain
Love for all
Everywhere
Not a stall
Became aware (become aware)

Have You Heard the Big Bang? .mp3
LYRICS
Don’t let the gravitational pull
Pull the wool
Over your eyes
Big bang!
Surprise
Now, here’s the thang
Though not quite in grasp of your fingers
It still lingers
The way Big Bang behaves…
Primordial gravitational waves
I mean, it’s worthy of a primal scream
Yeeha! Big bang!

LYRICS
If you don’t like what you’re hearin’
Would you rather be deaf?
Maybe you’re better off doin’
What you do best
Can you write a song?
How about do a dance?
If you could sing, that’d be just the thing
Sing, along

Time And Space Continuum Music Video.mp4
LYRICS
Um,
This is a test
Of the here and now
Time and space
Continuum
Is this human race
Somehow
At rest
Time we passed the past
Hope our present lasts
To our future success
What satisfaction
If just a fraction
Civilization
Some elimination
Of starvation
And, degradation
Some elevation
Of realization
And, appreciation

LYRICS
I wonder
Where do all the lives go
When you die
Where do all the lives go
Do you know?
Clap of thunder
In the blink of an eye
There’ll be no more I
Where does the life go
Do you know?
I sure pray this sole soul
Lands in the promised land
A promise is a promise
How can you miss?

Calliope Through A Kaleidoscope Video.mp4
Calliope Through A Kaleidoscope.mp3
LYRICS
Seeing life through a kaleidoscope
While riding a calliope
No naysayers. Nope.
Just the uplift of what a heart can see
Will you grab brass rings… one, two, three?
Through the kaleidoscope, I see there’s plenty
Ya, ya, ya, it’s our lucky day
Let the calliope music play
The horse goes up and down
As we spin around
In a happy whirl
Wearing heart-on-sleeve
It’s easy to believe
Successive overlapping layers form a pearl
Grasping brass rings
We see the alchemy of turning brass to gold
As the future of our generation is told (Unfold)
And, to calliope music everyone sings

LYRICS
When your soda-pop has lost it’s fiz
Maybe it’s time to give
When you know you’ll fail the pop quiz
Maybe it’s time to live
That’s just the way it is
Do you want heart or show biz
That’s just the way it is
Don’t let your life loose spice
Maybe it’s time to give
When it comes to fun, don’t think twice
Maybe it’s time to live

At The Same Time Music Video.mp4
LYRICS
I’m not sure if this is a valid ballad
At the same time
I pray the rhyme
Will stand the test of I’m
If one thing about a ballad is true
It probably has to do
With the love of love
If push comes to shove
This ballad’s ’bout love
Simultaneously
At the same time
In harmony
Harminglessity
The test of I’m
