Where? When you’re already there

Why do you bother running ’round?

LYRICS
Ho, ho, here we go gliding through the snow
On the way we say “Happy holiday!”
Ho, ho, here we go gliding through the snow
On the way we sing a caroling thing

A nod to Feliz Navidad
And, ooooh! O Tannenbaum
What do you do where you come from?
Where to begin… what’s your country of origin?

Then, again…
Why order a border?
For what it’s worth, we’re all from Earth!
What’s your rock of origin? Bring it home again! What’s your rock of origin?

LYRICS
Are there any ignoramuses amongst us?
Enormous ignorant ignoramus… I’m hellbent… go back from where you went
It’s easy to see you hate a refugee
If it were up to me…
I’d send you right back to where you came from
Up your mother’s vagina!
Yes, you’re that dumb
Not her bum…
Up your mother’s vagina!
You’re a lot of bull in a shop of china
It ain’t hard to partake that something’s gonna break
Go back to where you came from
Next, to your mother’s bum
Up your mother’s vagina
Nothin’ could be fine-a

bookmark_borderIgneous Ignoramus

LYRICS
How could I not know about the igneous flow
I’m just an igneous ignoramus
After investigation, one realizes… da… there’s no enigma
Quartz crystallizes from molten magma
A six-sided prism terminating in a six-sided pyramid
Down-to-earth geotropism hid under an inside-out geode lid
Cryptocrystalline can hardly be seen
Aggregate into an agate and see what you get

Some people only know the volcano
I must confess… I was an igneous ignoramus
Only getting to know about a lava flow (The mama of molten magma)
Then, my sights started to grow
Now I’m inclusive of extrusive and intrusive
Why not get ’em while they’re hot… these rocks rock
Crystals… fractals… for sure, crystals — fractals found in nature
Mandelbrot brought “beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That’s fractals.”
Might I add to this fad “beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That’s quartz crystals.”

LYRICS
All the leaves have fallen
Have we already forgotten
Winter has yet to start
Yet, we feel cold at heart

The cold-hearted started
There’s no room in the inn
Ain’t that a sin?
The cold-hearted started
Why did you bother to come?
Go back to where you’re from!

The days are growing shorter
Cold nights for the squatter
Those that roam far from home
Are left to feel on their own

For those that try and try
Yet, others wish to die
Why condemn the tried?
You’ve tried and crucified

LYRICS
Want to find a bus for all of us
To take a magical mystery tour
A roadtrip for sure
On the magic bus
Come on! Hop on the bus with us!
The air there is thick with music
While we gain a piece of mind with a peace that’s mine
Drive for hours with a piece of peace that’s yours
’till we feel fine with a peaceful piece of ours
Just hop on the bus, Gus… don’t need to discuss much
Gonna sing and frolic and such
Quick! Hop on the bus

Did anybody see the emergency…
Exit?
I use to be a skeptic
But, ya know… now, I gotta go!

Thus, my plea for the emergency…
Exit before I’m the ex-it

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
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
