LYRICS
Did anybody see the emergency…
Exit?
I use to be a skeptic
But, ya know… now, I gotta go!
So, please direct me to the emergency…
Exit! Run quick. Exit. Feeling sick. Desperate. #uck it!
Thus, my plea for the emergency…
Exit before I’m the ex-it

LYRICS
Take a look at the book
Could be the saint… could be the crook
I learned my lesson well
By the cover I can’t tell

Have you heard the word
Rational or completely absurd?
I learned my lesson well
By the cover I can’t tell

Have you read a page
Golden or in the Dark Age
I learned my lesson well
By the cover I can’t tell

What kind of read do you concede
Does it drain you soul or your head feed
… once read feed your head?
I learned my lesson well
By the cover I can’t tell

LYRICS
Run, rabbit, run
To save your life… or, just for fun
Run, rabbit, run

… er, a… can you see your enemy is like diarrhea
And, can you see… a… when that $hit hits the fan
Do you understand? Don’t you think you’re gonna stink?
Hate ain’t no panacea

supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
parading through the world all atrocious
wow the awe of superfluous superpower
Could be man’s final hour

Posted on by admin

Presented by The Beatless Sense Mongers

LYRICS
Q: Oui, we?
A: Yes. We are us…
No matter the country
Time humanity adjusts
Eagles Of Death Metal
Soaring high… peace for all
Raptor rapture… a religious nature
Not a single fool
Graduates from Mother Nature’s school
Humor and wit model
Love — the fundamental tool
Inclusive nation foundation
Built on solid rock
You want in? Just knock

“What I did, that evening
What she said, that evening
Fulfilling my hope
Headlong I go for glory… OK”
Nope. Run, run, run runaway!
We, oui. Oui, we.
Psycho killers are dangerous to us
If we become what we hate, it’s too late
Don’t wanna be a psycho killer, too
Nooooo, not me. How ’bout you?
We, oui!

Oui We.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Style: ExperiMental Music
Chords: [capo2] E Am / E E7 Am Am7 / B E
Rhythm: Mixed Latin Heavy Metal with some at 104 BPM
Recording: digital 1-track stereo

Inspired by the attack on Paris, France and the fans at an “Eagles Of Death Metal” concert. The song is about psycho killings. Individuals who murder are psycho. It’s not about beliefs, race or religion. You have to be nuts to murder someone.

Additional lyrics are from the Talking Heads’ song “Psycho Killer” (originally in French):
Ce que j’ai fait, ce soir-là
Ce qu’elle a dit, ce soir-là
Réalisant mon espoir
Je me lance vers la gloire… OK

Coversong originally made famous by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Written by John Fogerty

LYRICS
Now when I was just a little boy standin’ to my Daddy’s knee
My Poppa said son don’t let the man get you do what he done to me
‘Cause he’ll get you ’cause he’ll get you now now.

I can remember the fourth of July runnin’ through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin’ chasin’ down a hoodoo there
Chasin’ down a hoodoo there.

[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou.

Wish I was back on the bayou rollin’ with some Cajun Queen.
Wishin’ I were a freight train, oh, just a-chooglin’ on down to New Orleans.

[Chorus]

I can remember the fourth of July, runnin’ through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin’, chasin’ down a hoodoo there,
Chasin’ down a hoodoo there.

[Chorus]

bookmark_borderThe Birth of Jesus

Posted on by admin

Based on the Book Of Luke

A song about Syria and refugees. Jews, Christians and Muslims are all known as “Religions of The Book”. Sometimes we seem to forget that we are “one and the same” and our message is still the same: Peace On Earth. Goodwill Toward Man.

LYRICS
Trying to get a consensus by holding a census
Count on Augustus counting us
Quirinius governor of Syria… are you really serious?
From Nazareth in Galilee traveled Mary
To Bethlehem… David’s city… while Mary did carry

No room for a stranger
Managed to make it to a manger
Giving birth to heaven on Earth
And all worldly worth

There were shepherds watching over their flocks at night
When lo and behold, the most angelic sight
The angel said, “have no fright”
On Good News, I shed the light
Today Savior has been born to you
This will be a sign to you, too
One knows by his swaddling clothes

Suddenly, a great choir started to sing
Glory to God over everything
Peace on Earth everlasting

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Step by step by step
Going up. Going down.
Work! The product of the force applied to move
(Is it work to groove?)
Work! Measure the height, right? Right!
Don’t be a dope and measure the slope
After all, moving forward is no work at all
Step by step by step
Going up. Going down.
Power! Am I dumb…
Power… the rate work is done?
Come on! Let’s have some
What? Watt! What? What!
Is it plain the plane requires less work…
Or, am I just being a jerk?
What if I’m to climb two steps at a time
Or better yet I get to go down
Is there any work to be found?
Can I get gravity to do it for me?
Let’s see…
Step by step by step
Going up. Going down.

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you force me to grasp the gravity… gravity of gravity
Creating the possibility of thermal energy
Putting the weight of the world on my shoulders
I suppose we’re all beholders
Gravitating toward one another
Stopping us from drifting further
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you can’t force me to grasp the gravity of gravity
Maybe not a force at all
I’m not sure
If you’re just a consequence of the curvature
Not a straight line in space-time
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you force me to grasp the gravity… gravity of gravity
Our attractive force is proportional
To the product of our masses
Igniting spheres of hydrogen gases
Creating complexities such as galaxies
Come down to Earth? For what it’s worth, you force me to grasp the gravity… gravity of gravity
Bodies in the universe
Drawn on a collision course

bookmark_borderRed Cups (The Holy Grail)

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Good God! Oh, my God!
… turn it to some heavenly colour.

I’ve been inspired to write a new lyric based on your inspiration.
It’s entitled “My Red Cup” (working title The Holy Grail)
All hail The Holy Grail
My cup is red, but usually only on Easter… er, a… I mean Good Friday. Better yet, roll it out during The Last Supper. “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life.” Now that I think about it, red cups for a long weekend would be Kosher. (Jesus! After all, I am a Jew.) Start with the plain red cup… then by Easter Sunday (when I rise)… turn it into some heavenly hue. If it’s not too much to ask of you? All hail The Holy Grail!

LYRICS
Pursue and dreams come true

We hold these truths to be self-evident
We represent:
Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness
In pursuit of happiness
All we need do is pursue and dreams come true
Pursue and dreams come true

Void of hate… at any rate
Gracious for feeling generousness
In pursuit of generosity
Be it in you. Be it in me.
Certainly, we can pursue. Dreams come true.
Pursue and dreams come true

Goodness for goodness sake
What does it take?
In pursuit of bliss
Love the kiss of goodness
We knew what we could do
Pursue and dreams come true
