LYRICS
I gotta get into the swing of it
Get on the wing and get the swing
1, 2, 3, strikes I’ll find out
Strike up the band
You’ll understand
Get into the swing of it
1, 2, 3, strikes ya found out
It’s a swing and a kiss
I can learn to like this
Gettin’ in the swing of it
Hope I don’t forget, the more ya give the more ya get
Like you’re havin’ a fit
Get into the swing of it
You won’t mind… noooo, not a bit
Get into the swing of it
1, 2, 3, strikes ya found out
It’s a swing and a kiss
Do it just like this (pucker up)

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

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

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

And, can you see… a… when that $hit hits the fan
Do you understand? Don’t you think you’re gonna stink?

bookmark_borderOui We

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

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

LYRICS
Alas, Atlas… the wait of the world… shadow on your shoulder

How can we score any more when we look at all we’ve got
Maybe it’s time to untie the knot… cut us free… why not?
Let loose our grip just a bit on all our baggage
Lighten our load if we dispose of all our garbage
We’ve only the weight of the world
If we wait on the world!

The time is now to figure how and send hatred packing
The hour is ours to give and live… give love our backing
Embrace our space… leave no trace… mend our minds
We’ve only the weight of the world
If we wait on the world!
When we die… all we will be is our remains
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, just is just
No matter your pain. No matter your strain. No matter life’s lust.
We’ve only the weight of the world
If we wait on the world!

LYRICS
Upon consideration, what will be your weapon
To choose The Word’s… not that absurd
Use voice as weapon of choice

Speak out… what it’s about
If you’ve got to shout, shout
Don’t be the last-man-standing in doubt
Figure it out
It starts with a heart for a heart
In kind, a mind for a mind
Soon you’ll find… your voice… weapon of choice
