LYRICS
For real, the guitar speaks for how I feel
What’s the deal? The guitar speaks for how I feel
Not that absurd when it’s heard
A tone tells a thousand words

LYRICS
Do you know what I mean
When I sing “floating down stream”?
Behave with the energy wave
… to the sea
Try to keep your head above water
Don’t ever go down for the third time
It really does matter
Living the nursery rhyme
Floating down stream
My body a boat in the dream
Embody “about” in the dream

LYRICS
Clark Kent in to a phone booth
Change into the naked truth
Naked truth
Clark Kent out of the phone booth
Wearing the naked truth
Naked truth

Naked truth
Starts with your birthday suit
The essence of your root
Nothing else to boot
Soothsayer soul’s sleuth
Wearing the naked truth
Naked truth

Naked truth
Is more than just skin deep
Into your soul it will seep
An existential leap
Superhero out of the phone booth
In you naked truth
Naked truth

Almost rock off my rock
When I rock
Even when on solid rock
I rock the rock
Solid rock
Almost rock off my rock
When I rock

Take stock
In our foundation
Mental stimulation
Physical stimulation
Spiritual stimulation
Almost rock off my rock
When I rock

Pluck that string
Make it sing
Rock that thing

Almost rock off my rock

A boulder! A Rocker!

LYRICS
Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

How sure is your footing on the precipice of the future
How sure? For sure?
Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

Presently I consider the present a present
The recent present won’t persist
No, it won’t last
Men, grasp it while you can!
Before it passes to past
Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

Did you notice the crowd
It’s loud!
A mad dash to the finish line
3, 2, 1… then, you’re out of time
3, 2, 1…
Then, you’re done

Watching the past go past
And, it’s sure going fast

LYRICS
Which hunt!
What the #uck?!?!?!
Walks like a duck
Quacks like a duck
What the #uck?!?!?!

Which hunt? Witch hunt? Which witch?
Does a duck float?
Does a witch gloat?
Maybe the idea is not so remote
Which/witch hunt
Put him to the test
At best
If it grabs you by the ¢unt
To be perfectly blunt….
Which hunt
Witch found
But, will anyone come ’round
To claim him… chance’s slim
Thus, God save us

Which hunt? Witch hunt? Which witch?
The one who hangs ’em out to dry?
Hang ’em high!
Wait! News that’s fake

To be perfectly blunt….
Which hunt
Witch found
But, will anyone come ’round
To claim him… chance’s slim
Thus, God save us
Amen
(Please come again)

Tune into the tunin’
Once you’re in you’re jammin’

Appreciate the round of beer
Mighty neighborly of you
So, it’s the least I can do…. (jam)

LYRICS
Planted on the planet of plenty
A healthy harvest from coast to coast
From see to shining see
On the cusp of being robust
Planet Earth or bust
(On the cusp of us being beings)

Hitchhiker of the galaxy
Planned on the planet of plenty
To see the shining see

Like the stars in the heavens
Bringing light to the heathens
Where the end ends beginning begins

Yes, indeed we’re approaching light speed
Out of our vacuum into spacetime continuum

LYRICS
Almost saw a ghost
Lost soul
Should have been toast
Almost saw a ghost
Life’s toll
Nemesis of boast
This is the Nemesis

Why don’t you confess
Your mess
Live like a pig
Now you are a ghost
At most
Body pillage… not so big
This is the Nemesis

Almost saw a ghost
Lost soul
Spirited roast
Almost saw a ghost
Life’s toll
Nemesis of “most”
This is the Nemesis

Almost saw a ghost
Lifeless host
Death on two legs
Almost saw a ghost
Heartless host
The question begs
Who is you Nemesis?
This is your Nemesis

LYRICS
They come from the far left
The omniscient best
They come from the far right
When wrong they fight
Where the middle of the road
Must carry the load
Beyond bizarre
That far?
Might as well be from Madagascar

Do the Republican Can-can dance
Everyone can drop their pants
Do the Foxtrot with the Democrat
Everyone smells like a rat
Stand back!
The pot calling the kettle black
Pound fist!
Racists race to call racists racist
Beyond bizarre
That far?
Might as well be from Madagascar

The cloud is a shroud
Clouding the sun
A veil to curtail
The blue sky run
The wind of change is gonna come
n’ blow ’em back to where they came from

Discover the cloud cover
Blocking the sun
Obscure the pleasure
OF a blue sky run
The wind of change is gonna come
n’ blow ’em back to where they came from

Storm clouds on the horizon
Keep my eyes on
If they don’t fade
Gonna rain on the parade
The wind of change is gonna come
n’ blow ’em back to where they came from

Out from below
The cloud’s shadow
No we’re not done
The blue sky run
The wind of change has come
n’ blew ’em back to where they came from

On the down-low
Subterranean flow
Please keep out an eye

Haven’t been seen around
Don’t know if I want found

Are you aware
Maybe I’m there
And will you share
Whether you care?

Stuck my head out
Now there’s no doubt
What I’m talkin’bout
Please keep out an eye for I
Many perils awry
And, I don’t what to die

LYRICS
A most amazing thing
When I started to sing
The animals threw a ball
A bird call went out to all
Butterflies fluttering
Flirting with the wind
Man’s troubles abandoned

In the most amazing way
When I started to play
Critters began to party
Their animal spirits set free
The bird call went out to all
The forest and field yield
As the seventh seal is revealed

Before flora and fauna are forgot
Why not strike while the iron is hot
Start to stop to smell the roses
Watch the wildlife striking poses
