Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Thought I had to have one more
Through for sure we’d have a cure
Now, watch my tears pour
Tears pour to the floor
See level rises
Envision precision
Hope for surprises

Thought I had to have one more
Thought for sure that’d be the cure
Now, watch my tears pour
Tears pour to the floor
See level rises
Envision precision
Hope for surprises

Sure I had to have one more
What harm? We’ll endure…
Now, watch my tears pour
Tears pour to the floor
See level rises
Envision precision
Hope for surprises

Found out what’s in store
Failed at our cure
Now, watch my tears pour
Tears pour to the floor
See level rises
Envision precision
Hope for surprises

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Step right up, sir
Take your chances
At a brand new world
Hear the stances
Of the most sober
Story ever told

Can’t understand
Why man damned man
Guess I’ve something to learn
Can’t understand
Man the conman
Guess too eager to earn
Can’t understand
Why man damned man
Guess I’ve something to learn

My dear neighbor
Lend me your ear
What is going on here
Love’s no labor
Isn’t it clear
Or didn’t you hear?

LYRICS
What do you have to say?
Hey! Hey!
Working all day for sum pay
Hey! Hey!
The weight of the world you say

Take a load off
And come let it roll
You’ve had enough
Don’t let life take a toll
… let it roll

Move on in a new way
Hey! Hey!
Find your way to the ray
Hey! Hey!
Conquer the foray

Take a load off
And come let it roll
You’ve had enough
Don’t let life take a toll
… let it roll

From under clouds dark gray
Hey! Hey!
Standing in the light
All troubles fade away
Hey! Hey!
It’ll be alright

Take a load off
And come let it roll
You’ve had enough
Don’t let life take a toll
… let it roll

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Open up the door
To search for more
Calculate the math
To chart your path
And, go!
Focus the flow
The more you know
Scatter n’ sow
The more you grow

Orienteer
Your ear to hear
Make a choice
To cast your voice
And, go!
Focus the flow
The more you know
Scatter n’ sow
The more you grow

Looking above
Finding the love
Gaining insight
Bathing in the light
And, go!
Focus the flow
The more you know
Scatter n’ sow
The more you grow

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Overrun by the rate of consumption
Wouldn’t be so bad if they’d just consume
But they presume
To excrete excrement
And won’t relent
Indeed they proceed
To excrete excrement
Extra-meant

The damned consumer demands
Then cries
About the source of supply
Cry, cry, cry
The demand be damned

Overrun by the rate of consumption
Wouldn’t be so bad if I’d just consume
But I presume
To excrete excrement
And won’t relent
Indeed I proceed
To excrete excrement
Extra-meant

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Got to one better
when does it let up
Forgive one’s debtor
When do you give up
Where does it end
Again and again
Where does it end
The message we send

My grass is greener
When does it let up
Our neighbor’s meaner
When do you give up
Where does it end
Again and again
Where does it end
The message we send

My pile’s bigger
When does it let up
Light up a cigar
When do you give up
Where does it end
Again and again
Where does it end
The message we send

bookmark_borderGetaway

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What do you say
Maybe today
We’ll find a way
For a getaway
Choose a rat race in the city
Or squealing n’ getting gritty like a pig
Not really a matter of being witty
More about where you dig
What do you say
Maybe today
We’ll find a way
For a getaway
Making excuses over wealth
Questioning wealth’s worth
Seeking elixirs for our health
Beckoning the death of Earth
What do you say
Maybe today
We’ll find a way
For a getaway
Get away
From confusion of pollution
Get away
From “See me. Me!”
Get away
From assume and consume
Get away
From confusion of pollution
Get away
From “See me. Me!”

bookmark_borderNot a Moment Too Soon

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Will you ever get out of there?
Once the world starts to care
Will you ever get out of there?
Once the world becomes aware
And believe me…
It’ won’t be a moment too soon
Seeing how the hammer does loom

Will we ever get out of here?
Once the world starts to hear
Will we ever get out of here?
Soon it all becomes clear
Once the world becomes aware
And believe me…
It’ won’t be a moment too soon
Seeing how the hammer does loom
No, not a moment too soon
— The loon beneath the full moon

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
It’s amazing how the buds
Know when to bloom
Not too late
Not too soon

It’s not too late
To let the bees pollinate
Best not to wait
Turn to procrastinate
Get off the fence
And in defense
Get off the fence
And in offense
Named — play the game

It’s amazing how my buds
Know not the doom
With the date
Looming soon

It’s not too late
To let their brains pollinate
Best not to wait
Turn to procrastinate
Get off the fence
And in defense
Get off the fence
And in offense
Named — play the game

LYRICS
Press your right foot…
Put it into drive
Press your right foot…
Down
Press your right foot…
Put it into drive
Shakin’ a wasp hive
Try n’ stay alive
Put it into drive
Press your right foot…
Down

To know go
Put your foot down
turn the gears ’round
To know go… down
Go down
To know go
Too late for woah
Put your foot down

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Picking six of one
Thinking he has won
Too quick to discover
Half-dozen of another
Out to prove once again
You can choose not to lose
In a win-win
It’s all you have to do
It’s up to you

Did you watch another day
Seem to just slip away
If you wish you might
Get to play tonight
Out to prove once again
You can choose not to lose
In a win-win
It’s all you have to do
It’s up to you

Is the finish when you end
Or start the next part
Hoping to discover
Thre’s time for another
Out to prove once again
You can choose not to lose
In a win-win
It’s all you have to do
It’s up to you

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Another day fades into night
Thought by now
We might get this right
… sure hoped we might
But once our actions
Are brought to light
Prior satisfactions
Are off in flight
Our last goodnight
(Good night)

Another day fades into night
We know now
Our time’s getting tight
… gaining insight
But once our actions
Are brought to light
Prior satisfactions
Are off in flight
Our last goodnight
(Good night)

Another day fades into night
Question now
Is our future bright
… bring it to light
But once our actions
Are brought to light
Prior satisfactions
Are off in flight
Our last goodnight
(Good night)

LYRICS
When the mountain dew
Drips past your lips
There is something “knew”
Coming into view
Getting to know
What’s inside of you
Now you’ll know
Just what to do
Toast the gig
Do a big swig
Offer to jig

As that mountain dew
Drips past my lips
There is something “knew”
Coming into view
Getting to know
What’s inside of me
Now I’ll see
Just what to do
Toast the gig
Do a big swig
Offer to jig

As that mountain dew
Drips past our lips
There is something “knew”
Coming into view
Getting to know
What’s inside of us
Now we’ll know
Just what to do
Toast the gig
Do a big swig
Offer to jig
