LYRICS
Is there something strange
That we share in the air

I’m not sure
A sweet nectar
Love’s perfume
When you walk in a room

Love of love
Light from above
Breathe it in
Again and again
(out and in)

Pale under veil
An aura of delight
Porcelain skin
Why eyes have sight

Pale under veil
An aura of delight
Porcelain skin
Heart’s insight

LYRICS
Did you say watch out for the rapid
You did?
Or it some sort-of dream
Coming apart at the seam
Seems
Did you say watch out for the rapid
You did?
Or… for all
Are already over the waterfall

Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream
’till it’s too late for all
Over the waterfall

All the way
For this day
I’m thankful
Over the waterfall
This beauty I see
It’s me
What they named be
And the me that is this be
Even if I’m over the waterfall
Taking it in… all
My call
Fancy free… fanciful

Did you say we already did
We hit the rapid
We did
Now we slid
Over the edge
Over the ledge
After all
Over the waterfall

Trying to take it in — all
Over the waterfall

LYRICS
As I gape
At Merlin’s great escape

Through the valley of the giants
And a giant rat that rants
Overheated. Run out of coolants
In the land of the ignorants

The King is a Queen
Lacking self-esteem
Takin’ it out by being mean
Woke-up in a nightmare dream

The Grim Reaper renders
Souls surrendered
No on remembers
From render to rendered

From Ygraine came Arthur
Now for Merlin to take it further
Dear Guinevere you’d fear
Ya gotta get out of here!

As I gape
At Merlin’s great escape

Whole self in. Whole self out.

On the other side
Avoid being meaner

It’s not your average savage
This savage will ravage
These savages are beyond real
What’s the deal
It’s not your average savage

This savage is carrying some baggage
And I dunno… whoa
I think his luggage should be stowed
Let’s see
Got bats in the belfry
Toys in the attic
Too much static
Save me

Toys in the attic

LYRICS
The closer I get to the ledge
The closer I get to falling… over the edge

Watch that first step it’s a doozy
Just looking over makes me woozy
Close to the edge
To which allegiance do you pledge
As for me
I’m a firm believer in gravity

The closer we get to the ledge
Precariously perched on the edge
To which allegiance do you pledge

LYRICS
Just sitting here minding my business
Grabbed by paranoid paralysis
Officer give me the remedy
To society’s tragedy

Now you’ve crossed into my zone
Why don’t you just leave me alone

One of the things I most dread
Is growing eyes on the back of my head
Why not take a real deep breath
Before you’re the cause of your own death

Now you’ve crossed into my zone
Why don’t you just leave me alone

LYRICS
The story of “Sam I Am”

I wasn’t even jamming
Noooo
I was just…
Sitting there
Discussing in a rational fashion
The events of the day
There were some big events that day
Come to be known as the tRump Roast
The arrogant boast the most

We weren’t making a sound
That could be heard
Anywhere around
When from out of nowhere
Ohhhhh no no
The Po-po
The Po-po said you gotta go
Go!
I said, “I dunno”

We were just sitting there
Exercising our civil rights
To discuss the events of the day in a neighborhood way
Nooo… we couldn’t just go
No, no, no
No go

Awoke from a slumber
A little bit dumber
A nightmarish dream
Where I turn obscene

How am I suppose to get any sleep
With this racket going on
Turns me into a creep
When this racket’s going on
How am I suppose to get any peace
With this racket going on
Gonna force you to cease
This racket that’s going on

To create a buzz
No reason… just ’cause
That’s what dumb does

LYRICS
Wouldn’t ya say we resemble
How to peacefully assemble
Writing songs about freedom
Redress of grievances from the free dumb

Chorus
I had to tell the Po-po No! No!
Ya know, he didn’t know
Gay Church… Church and Gay
Bring your guitar and learn how to play

Perhaps you should dot your i’s and maybe cross your t’s
Before you confront me
Please don’t tread on me

Just because you’re walled-in
Doesn’t mean we gotta stop talkin’
While your face is turning green
The writing on the wall will be seen

LYRICS
Pink shoes
And bad tattoos
I suppose you’ve nothing to lose

Might as well pierce your tongue
If your battle can’t be won
Put another hole in your head
Then, put yourself to bed

Maybe a nose ring
Is just the thing
Or to probe
How to stretch my earlobe

I hate to say goodbye
But if you can’t answer why…?
