LYRICS
There is a feeling in the air
I’ve become aware
Where there’s a will there’s a way
Transform our day

In the ground, the bass sound
Can be found. It’s going down
Feel the beat till you’re complete
On your feet out in the street

The pitter-patter of the water
The cadence of the matter
Marching feet. The walls defeat
Jericho you’ve come to meet

Marching feet. The music’s beat
Leveling walls to the ground
The heart’s beat. The soul’s heat
Feel the sound. Love abound

LYRICS
Never say never
We can get together
Loving one another
Beats beating each other
Don’t overthink
Before you blink
Let love pour from every pore
You know… let the love flow

Please I beseech
Reach out… please reach
Let your light teach
Have some free speech

Always forever
Hand-up for sister
Now and whenever
Hand-up for brother

Hitler

LYRICS
How can you have any pudding
If you don’t have your proof
Surely, you must be kidding
Or, perhaps a bit aloof
Because the proof is in the pudding
All salute
Don’t refute
A racist needn’t be a fascist
But a fascist is racist
Nationalism isn’t sarcasm
Segregation nation
An ugly situation
Isolationism raping orgasm
All salute
Don’t refute
(Heil! Heil! Heil)
The basis of the racist
to govern as fascists
Draining the swamp of our gene pool
So as them… we’re all the fool
All salute
Don’t refute
(Heil! Heil! Heil)
Off to the races
To be racists
Have a bad day
Hombre’
Torture
For sure
Torture
For sure

Nationalism is the main foundation of fascism.

LYRICS
Breaking the law, they’re breaking the law
Lawmakers breaking the law
In awe
Lawfakers. Lawbreakers.
We don’t need no stinkin’ badges
We got egos
I swear to uphold the hold-up
That no truth is self-evident
Now that I’m President
All’s corrupt

Breaking the law, they’re breaking the law
Law enforcers are the perpetrators
The Executive Branch all turned traitors
Drain the swamp and lay with ‘gators
Going to bed with legislators
Making laws by breaking laws
Breaking the law, they’re breaking the law

LYRICS
Revolting? Revolt!
Screw loose and a bolt

And, he was breaking the law
Playin’ his guitar was the last thing I saw
Then, my jaw dropped in awe
Playing the guitar is breaking the law
Dilute! We gotta dilute the brute
Refute! We gotta refute the brute
Riveting jolt
Revolt
Screw loose and a bolt
You had to pull a 45
Pointblank at my head
I’m just lucky to be alive
When 45 said we could all be dead

LYRICS
Is it that hard to understand
We’re all in nobody’s land
On my way… on the trail
Distance from the bigly fail
What was once the lonesome trail
All of us exit… U.S. exodus wail
Yippee ki-yay yippi yi yo
From the land where humanity’s bland
We’re all headed to nobody’s land
Away from the brash and grand
On our way in nobody’s land
The lonesome trail is getting over crowded
All the people fleeing from being overshadowed
All the people seeing from being overshadowed
All the people freeing from being overshadowed
On my way… on the trail
Distance from the bigly fail
What was once the lonesome trail
All of us exit… U.S. exodus wail
Yippee ki-yay yippi yi yo

Put you love around it
If you just can’t handle it
Give you love
Give a little bit
Put your love around it
Not for granted
Not a habit

Put you body, mind and spirit
Into it
Give you love
Give a little bit

LYRICS
Not bold nor ingenuous
The world is indigenous
From “I”raq to You.S.A
Wouldn’t you say
It’s all of us
What does every being bring
The essence of an Earthling
What have you in common with I
The simple fact — we’re all going to die
So, in the meantime, can’t we all try
Dancing together and in harmony sing
We’d love to see the world sing
In peaceful harmony

LYRICS
Dial denial
Truth’s trial
Set “to know”
At zero
I dial denial
But get no answer
Under the file —
“A Truth Dancer”
45’s revolutions
45/minute
45 RPM
45’s revolutions
45/minute
45… revolutions per minute
Don’t you know you’re soaking in it?
(Those alive search for truth no matter how minute)
45 RPM, I am
Going round and round again and again
45 causing 45 revolutions per minute
45 RPM again and again
45 RPM
45 RPM going round n’ round agin’
I am 45 RPM going round agin’
Imagine this
The POTUS
Takes us down the precipice
Disastrous
For all of us
Going down, down, down
In the (tiny) hands of a clown
45 ’till no one is left alive
going under, dive, dive, dive
45’s revolutions
45/minute
45’s revolutions
45 revolutions per minute

LYRICS
Put the facts in the trunk
And lock them up
Put the truth in the closet
And lock them up
With the skeleton key
And lock them up

No passing grade bound to flunk
Get yourself a yes man and yup, yup, yup
He won’t refund your deposit
On your knees if ya wanna be free

The bucket of sanity
Is completely empty
The old man is salty
More than just slightly
Can’t take it so lightly

Cause friction with more fiction
In a fascist fashion
Fracture diction by definition
In a fascist fashion
Cause destruction with my pollution
In a fascist fashion
