bookmark_borderShare The Care

LYRICS
Does anybody share the care
Is anybody there
Do you care to share

Does anybody anywhere share the care
Please let me know you’re out there

Do you have a concern about the level of care
That you can see anyone anywhere share
Or is it just all wrapped up in selfish
Selfish like some sort-of shellfish
The happy clam that I am

Don’t you think it would be fair
If we all learned to share the care
Don’t you think it would be alright
If we all gained some insight
Saw the light
See the light
Be the light
“We” the light

LYRICS
Maybe there’s trouble
Sift through the rubble
Tower of Babble
Took a tumble

Who left the barn door open
’cause now we’re misisn’ a cow
Who left the barn door open
I’m havin’ trouble copin’

Chorus

Who let the cat out of the bag
Some bearded, toothless hag
Who left the door ajar
Come push it… see how far

Going to Be a Star.mp3

LYRICS
This is a soundcheck… for a reggae sort-a thing… that will be extemporaneous

We’ve made it this far
Rather combine forces and become a star
We’ve made it this far

The I in the I
And the you in you, too
We…
We can determine destiny

Or, so they say

We’ve made it this far

Combine become a star

Become the star you know you are

We’ve made it this far

LYRICS
Heartfelt moment
Heartfelt moment

When you sing Christmas carols in your native tongue
I feel the Earth is as one
Heartfelt moment
It’s a heartfelt moment
First, my spirit went silent
Then, it skipped a beat
When you throw out conceit…
When you throw out defeat…
Heartfelt moment

Wait a minute
No, don’t wait a minute
I feel your spirit
Not only can I hear it
I feel it
Deep within
Heartfelt moment

LYRICS
I’m just a bland gland
I don’t understand
Just a bland gland

I don’t know
It’s hard to believe I’ve developed beyond and embryo
I don’t understand
I’m just a bland gland

Like the belly…
No not just the belly
The underbelly of the lowlyest worm at the bottom of the sea
Yeah that’s me
I don’t understand
I’m just a bland gland

Do I care if I see an atrocity
Nooooo
I just plead ignorance
My indifference passed off as ignorance
I’m guessing people will feel sorry for me
If I don’t understand the atrocity

They say “you live and you learn”
I see we’re alive… what have we learned?
Can’t cross back over bridges burned
There’s a lesson well learned

They say “you live and you learn”
I see we’re alive… what have we learned?
You can’t spend what you haven’t earned
There’s a lesson well learned

They say “you live and you learn”
I see we’re alive… what have we learned?
Can’t see ’round the corner ’til turned
There’s a lesson well learned

bookmark_borderSelf-interest

LYRICS
If you consider all homeless
To be terrorists
What’s up with your self-interest?
That’s messed up
That’s what’s up

How can you raise fear about fear
When you create the terror aren’t you the terrorist
It’s implicit
After all, who created the homelessness
That lack of nest
If you create terrorists
Chances are large you’ll live in fear

Next, you’ll tell me that you hate hate
Well, isn’t that hate that you create
Then, you cheer on your fear
Got terror in error
When the twist is you’re the terrorist
The twist is you’re the terrorist

Do you think you can resist becoming the terrorist
When you hold your fear dear
Like your fear is more dear than my fear
Then I fear fear itself

LYRICS
The air in Beijing
Is breathtaking
If you go there
You better be taking your own air
You’re not suppose to be able to see
The quality
Of air
Beware!

The air in Tehran
Iran
It’s terrorizing
We’re not alone
Closer to home
Philadelphia
Well, the air there
Is filth dealt to ya

Breathtaking

Better not gasp
’cause your lungs won’t last
You’re not suppose to be able to see
The air quality
We’ve gotta gotta find
Rack your mind
We’ve gotta find
A solution to all our air pollution
Gotta find
What comes to mind?
For crying out loud
My, Lord!
We’re not suppose to be able to see the air quality
We’re not suppose to be able to see the air…
Quite frankly

Living in a fog
When you’re living in smog
Clearly there’s no clarity
The air there is breathtaking
If something’s ever been meant for “goodness saking”
It’s air that’s breathtaking

This song is about humans making the planet uninhabitable. Over the last couple weeks, major cities including Beijing, Tehran and Philadelphia have declared air quality alerts. People are advised not to breath.

Air pollution is one of leading causes of death.

bookmark_borderThe Way It Is / Was

LYRICS
Is that the way it is?
Because if that’s the way it is
Now, it was

Is that the way it is?
’cause that is turned to was
The is is now was
Shall we get to will be
What will be
What will be will be
If we chart our destiny

Well, is that the way it
Now, that’s the way it was
Is that the way it is
Because…
Now, that’s the way it was

Is that the way it is
’cause now that’s the way it was
Because
As fast as it is is
Is was

In the blink of an eye I go from is to was
So as long as I shall be
I will be
Living in what will be
In charge of our density

Sailing the sea we’ll see what will be charting our destiny

Is that the way it is
Is that the way it is
Is that the way it is

If that’s the way it is
Then that’s the way it is

PART 3
Is that the way it is?
Because
If that’s the way it is
Now, that’s the way it was
As is turns to was

I’d like to see how we chart our destiny
So we set sail for the sea we shall see how we chart our destiny

Is that the way it is?
Because
Now, that is was

Is that how it is?
Because
Now, that is has turned to was

LYRICS
I’ve been wandering
Wondering as I’m wandering
Out on the range
Isn’t life strange

I hope I’m not walking
I hope I’m not talking
In circles
I’d feel like such a circle-jerk
That just won’t work

I’ve been wandering
Wondering as I’m wandering
Out on the range
Isn’t life strange
Let’s begin to soak it in
It doesn’t matter where you begin
Soak it in

LYRICS
There’s a cold wind blowing
Wrapping itself around your spine
Sending shivers up and down mine

Can we really be ending
The infinity of eternity
Is there any uncertainty
In the message we are sending

There’s a mean storm brewing
Revolution of evolution
Desolation of our institution

Chorus

There’s lean times a coming
Lacking meat in what we eat
Helter skelter in our shelter
