The System.mp3

LYRICS
You know we’re all suckin’ off the system
I know I am
Very clear what’s going on here
It started with my Mom’s teat
… but, we all gotta eat

Ya, we’re all sucking off the same hose
Everyone knows

It’s more about your need
More about the greed
Starting with your Mom’s teat
We’ve all got to eat

No surprise when you realize right before your eyes
We’re all suckin’ off the system
I know I am
But, I know I’ll do what can
How about you

We strive to stay alive
Survival of the fittest
Who is best?
My, oh, my
What will be my best fit
Even if I don’t like it a bit

Every day when I wake
See how much I can take
Gotta see what I can be
Gotta see what’s inside of me

I know, I know, I know
We’re all suckin’ off the same hose
I know, I know
How the water will flow
We’re all suckin’ of the system
I am…
I know I am
Gonna do what I can do
Hope you will, too
See what we can be
I know
About the flow
I know I am
Suckin’ off the system

Suckin’ off the system
I know I am
Started with my mother’s teat
We all gotta eat

In Common.mp3

LYRICS
Right before my eyes I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why

None to be found
None around

Right before my I’s, I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why

If all I do is “I, I, I, me, me, me”
It’s easy to see
No surprise
My demise

Right before my eyes I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why

How can you have more space
If space is nothing
How can you have more nothing
And find a trace?

(trip)

Right before my I’s, I start to realize
Common sense is hard to come by
And, I don’t know why

It seems that this I
The I I eye
Coming to think… it’s inevitable
That I’ll be unable…
I mean, we’re all gonna die
I don’t care why

(skip and a jump / time slide faster)

Common sense is hard to come by
But you’d better try
Not just some sort-of pie-in-sky
Get a grasp
At last

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
If you keep trying to find your place in this space
Even just trying to keep place at your pace
By looking in, by digging in, inside
How are you ever gonna figure it out
Figure out out
Figure out out

If you’re lost in your own space
Trying to figure out what face
To wear
Beware
If you keep digging in
Looking in
To your inside
You’re gonna miss the ride
How ya gonna figure out out
Figure out out?

If it’s all about you
Unlikely life will ring true
But, you’ll get through
Doing all you can do
To figure out out
To figure out out
You’ve got to come out
Look out!
To figure out out

Where to begin?
Get over within
Figure out out
Get over within
Get to figgerin’ out out

Trying to get on and along
Getting over in
Figuring out out
Trying to figure out out
Gonna figure out out
Leaving no doubt

Getting it on within figuring out out

LYRICS
Taking showers with the meteors
More than mediocre
We fly high
Lighting up the sky

Fleeing all
Falling in a waterfall
Getting to know the flow
In total
With the waterfall

Take flight through the night into the bright…
Dawn
Moving on

Take a shower with the meteors
More than mediocre
You can fly high
In the night sky

LYRICS
If ever there were ever to be a bliss
It would be bliss just like this
Miss Bliss

Feel the mist
Just like this
Bliss

This bliss
this is it
The bliss
Miss Bliss through the mist

A nod through the fog
Thinly veiled
Message arrived in the mailed
Message mailed
Miss Bliss is alive

Unclench the fist
Feel the mist
The misfit
Of misfit
Of Miss Bliss
Let go of dole
Her soul
Miss Bliss
Let go of your troll
Her sole
This bliss

Right here
In the comfort
So near
The comfort
This bliss
Embraced
This bliss
Embrace
This bliss

LYRICS
Have you ever felt the impact
Of an imp act
An imp is a unique creature
With the feature
Of being mischievous

Wouldn’t be wise for us
To consider frivolous
Rather take the impetus
Of the indigenous

“Sharing the same sense of free spirit and enjoyment of all things fun.”
Let’s see what we can get done

LYRICS
So, they say
This is the way
Though tried and true
I’d rather forge a path with you
Let exploration ensue

On the verge of a musical march
In search of a whimsical lark
That’ll spark the urge to debark
Disembark

Out of hear
Cheer

So, they say
This is the way
Though tried and true
I’d rather forge a path with you
Let exploration ensue

Which weighs more
A pound of bricks
Or a pound of feathers?
Which would you rather
Fall on your head?

Which ways more?

What’s in store
Not just for kicks
You made your bed
Your folklore
Will be the fix
Let your heart be led

LYRICS
Wow! I’m impressed
This is the shit
The best
Gonna be a hit
I would have guessed

Takes the mystery out of it
At least a bit
Oh, well
What the hell

At the curiosity peak
Go ahead… take a peek
If the mysteries of the universe
You seek
A universal language
We’ll converse
Break free of the cage
Turn sage
Speak
