LYRICS
Put the male quarter inch
Into the female input
Sounds like a sound cinch
All digital if the analog’s kaput

Steadily seasoning melody
Creating sauce so thick
A special recipe
For cooking up music

Plug it in, turn it on
Roast a song
Tune it up, turn to ten
Won’t be long
’till we’re feastin’

LYRICS
Just in time
Will it become just in time
Just in time

Can we find reason for rhyme
Just in time

A just and democratic society
When thugs that mug don’t gain notoriety
When humanity isn’t a rarity
When love equates to prosperity

Can we get there?
Behaving according to what is morally right and fair
Responsibility aware

Just in time
Will it become just in time
Just in time

Can we find reason for rhyme
Just in time

A just and democratic society
When a lug gets a hug escaping disparity
When first and last come to parity
The reign of faith, hope and charity

It goes in one ear
And right in the other
Both ears hear
Slightly different than one another

A simple gift
A pan to the left
A pan to the right
Bringing light to third eye sight

Pushing buttons and turning knobs
For a good sound job
A sound sound job
A solid sound

LYRICS
Check, check…
Check this out
This is a song
It’s the soundcheck for the song
That we’re hoping to call “the party”
It’s a ska tune at 128 beats per minute

We’re working with this new Vox effects… pedal thing… we got it kinda for free at Sam Ash… it’s called the Vox Tone Lab… and it’s like C

If you wanna be free… the boogie… and, just doesn’t do it for we

Children going round and round

It’s getting down, down, down
To me
To me

Once we put the other further
Less and less will suffer
I can feel you….
And, you can, too
Then, you can see
You contribute to me
And, I to you, too

And, we sing in harmony

Once we see harmony
Harm no me

When you get down to the bass
The bass in the lower space

The bass takes over the lower space

The mid’s in middle
Not much of a riddle
Once the pieces fall together
(Feels natural)

Don’t ask why
Don’t let the middle pass by

And, the high
For you and I

When you get down to the bass
The basics
Of the music
Don’t let the high pass by
Once you get down to the basics
Of the music
It’s not a riddle of the middle
The basics of the music

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — C

It was originally titled the Party because of political parties… but, I forgot that part once the soundcheck started. I liked the soundcheck enough to just keep it. Anyway, it’s more about getting the parts of music together rather than governments. What the heck, feel free to take it either way.

LYRICS
Bend your mind and stretch through the stars
Send your mind and fetch through the stars

Bend your mind and stretch through the stars
Bend your mind and fetch through the stars

The message that you send
When it reaches your end
Might just be the message you receive
Might just be the message to relieve
Believe

In the end, the message that you send
Might just be the message you receive
Probably can’t hurt if you believe

In the end, the message that you send
Might be the message you receive
It’s in your will to relieve
In spite of what you believe
Believe it’s real
And, you’ll seal
The real deal

You can seal the real deal

LYRICS
Does it feel as though we’re in the thick of it
With everybody moving so quick
Well, you know you can go to the show
Get in the flow
Go

Burn to the wick
Moving quick

Does it feel as though things are moving too fast
Wondering whether we’re gonna last
Well, you know… better than moving to slow
Either in the quick or of the dead
Let the followers be led
Let the rock be bled

LYRICS
An atmosphere of fear
Hovering in the fog of smog
Filth is in the air
In fact, it’s everywhere
Time for a fresh wind to blow again

The air is getting tight
And that ain’t right
Time to clear the atmos-fear

An atmosphere of fear
Lingering cloud over the crowd
Clouded reason veiled shroud
For crying outloud
Time for a fresh wind to begin

An atmosphere of fear
Did it make your make-up smear
Mascara masquerade parade
Trying to cover-up the humanitarian raid
Time for a fresh wind to blow in

LYRICS
It kind of helps if you open the door…
Before! Once More! Before!

Chorus
It will be less hard on your head
If you listen to what I said
It’ll be a much better day
If you’ll just listen to what I say

Cut down on yelps by opening the door…
Before! Once More! Before!

Chorus

It’ll be less savage by taking advantage of the handle…
Less scandal

Chorus

I hear ya knockin’ but ya can’t come in

It kind-of helps if you ope the door…
Before! For sure! Before!

Much easier to pass through
A much wiser thing to do
Time to act your damn age
And minimize the damage

It kind-of helps if you ope the door…
Before! For sure! Before!

Listen to that slurred speech
You can barely stand on your feet
Not much of a reach
(To say) you’re destined for self defeat

It kind-of helps if you ope the door…
Before! For sure! Before!

It kind of helps if you open the door…
Before! For sure! Before!
It kind of helps if you open the door…
Before! Once More! Before!

Won’t be as hard on your head
If you open the door instead
You won’t be “that guy” they’ll dread
If you use your head to open the door instead

Chorus

You won’t be going to bed
Wishing yourself dead
When all is done and said
Should have opened the door…
Using your head instead
