LYRICS
Something’s really weird out there
A strange breeze… chill in the air
Something’s not quite right right here
A white-washed humanity smear

There’s a cold front and it’s moving in
No, it won’t be long ’till it’s stormin’

People going crazy out there
A strange disease… they do declare
A problem where they make a commotion
Having to express their emotion

There’s a cold front and it’s moving in
No, it won’t be long ’till it’s stormin’

Not willing to really share
Cold shoulder freeze… can barely bare
Priorities re-arrange
Time for us to make the change

There’s a cold front and it’s moving in
No, it won’t be long ’till it’s stormin’

LYRICS
What the heck
Do you mind if I kiss your neck
Like a butterfly
I’ll try

Oh my my
Boy I’ll try
Oh what the hell
I’ll never tell

Just can’t resist
May I kiss your wrist
Like a butterfly
I’ll try

Oh my my
Boy I’ll try
Oh what the hell
I’ll never tell

In the wake of the ape of your neck
The gentle side… subtle wrist twist

Oh my my
Boy I’ll try
Oh what the hell
I’ll never tell

LYRICS
I heard the man on the radio say
Tornado Warning!
The storming is coming
Right for you
Better do what you do
Tornado Warning!

Do what you do when you see one
RUN!!!

I heard the man on the radio say
There’s a tornado headed our way
Tornado Warning!
Warning tornado
Like a rotten tomato
Thrown at our picnic just for fun
Time to fold camp. Time to run!

Do what you do when you see one
RUN!!!

LYRICS
This is a soundcheck
For an instrumental… I guess
We plan on turning down the microphones so you don’t hear the sounds of an actual musician playing the instruments

Since this is only a soundcheck, we’re going to try for a surround-sound sound

Sorry, I forgot this is just a soundcheck and I’ve gotta check
For the flow glow
For the glow flow
Don’t let the people stand in the way every day
Let the flow glow grow

Don’t intend humiliatin’
But you ain’t no bargain
Upping your size

In need of a magician
To make any sense of that
Upping your size
Maybe it’s time for the wise to rise?

LYRICS
This is a test of the non-emergency broadcasting network
It is only a test

You say you believe in revolution
Not in a bloody institution
But the evolution of your revolution
Umm… what’s in your institution?

What do you have to say
Keep harm outta harm’s way?
What do you have to say
Can you keep harm at bay?

So, you wanna start a revolution
Agin’ the bloody institution
What do you plan instead of bloodshed
Pray tell, what is you plan instead?

What do you have to say
Keep harm outta harm’s way?
What do you have to say
Can you keep harm at bay?

Coversong originally made famous by Yes
Written by singer Jon Anderson and guitarist Steve Howe
Cover is performed as a modern dance EDM song

Lyrics

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley

The music dance and sing
They make the children really ring
I spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you

I will remember you
Your silhouette will charge the view
Of distance atmosphere
Call it morning driving thru the sound and even in the valley

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you

Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching down on the land
Catching the swirling wind the sailor sees the rim of the land
The eagle’s dancing wings create as weather spins out of hand

Go closer hold the land feel partly no more than grains of sand
We stand to lose all time a thousand answers by in our hand
Next to your deeper fears we stand surrounded by a million years

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
Twenty four before my love and I’ll be there

I’ll be the roundabout
The words will make you out ‘n’ out
You spend the day your way
Call it morning driving thru the sound and in and out the valley

In and around the lake
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing too
Twenty four before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you

LYRICS
Do your realize you’re alive?

Do you even know if you’re alive
Do you realize
You’re alive
Can you even remember when you born
Do you remember the morn you were born
When you die will they mourn
Do you even know if you’re alive
Do you realize

Do you realize you’re alive
Perhaps you can’t recall your childbirth at all
Can you remember when
You were born, again?

Do you recall
Any memory at all
When you were given birth on Earth
And here you are not that far
From being gone
Do you remember the morn you were born

I really think you
Have it in you
I do
Heaven in you
I think there’s heaven in you
And, I believe you can help relieve
Give aid
You can help save
Not that you’re meant to be a savior
’cause you’re too late
As a matter of fact
That didn’t work

Nevertheless, all the mess
You need not confess
Want to make it clear
That’s not what we’re looking for here
Nevertheless
I believe you have it in you
So, come on… let’s see what we can do

Yes, I guess
You’ve got it in you
It’s true
You’ve got it in you
It’s true
Now, watcha gonna do

Tidal Wave Goodbye.mp3

LYRICS
The ebb and flow
Of the tide do you know
Which way it’s going to go
Do you know if it’s going high
Or is it going low

Coming in or going out

I’m just trying to find out what it’s all about
If I’m going to ride the tide to the other side
Figure I better stop looking inside
And start exploring out
See if I can find out what it’s about

So, I was just wondering if you know
About the ebb and flow
If you know which way the tide is going to go

Going high or going low

So if you can just give me the heads up on when the tides up
I would like to partake in the participation of ridin’ the time
Surfs up
Come ride the tide
Surfs up
That’s what’s up

LYRICS
It wasn’t a far off place
Nor distant time
It’s right here in this space
Called yours and mine

Will we get it together
And make some reason and rhyme

If we all took the time to confess
This is not someone else’s misplaced mess

Will we get it together
And make some reason and rhyme
In time

The people before must have thought we’d be so much more
The people to come… well, hopefully there will be some

Will we get it together
And make some reason and rhyme
In time

LYRICS
Running like a rabbit chased by a dog
“Lord Of The Flies” sacrificial hog

Running like a rabbit chased by a fox
Better start thinking out of the box

Gonna leave my scent in a circle
Then gonna jump make it special
From out of the box to something round
A trick of the mind. Now can’t be found

It’s time to jump. I gotta hunch
‘less I become someone’s lunch
’cause there’s nothing much to prove
Better off gettin’ on the move
So there’s no sorrow in my tomorrow

Better run like a rabbit for a bit
