LYRICS
Will high noon
Come too soon
Showdown duel
Of the fool
Just another full moon fool
Just another full moon loon

As the Earth spins
Nobody wins
If we all choose
Of course to lose
Just another full moon fool
Just another full moon loon

Weigh the Milky Way
Then learn how to say
Humanity’s tool
Or… stubborn as a mule?
Just another full moon fool
Just another full moon loon

LYRICS
Between the ground a blue
Is you
As long as green can be seen
You do
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

If you’re turning red
From humiliation
Please do not dread
Your illumination
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

If you’re seeing red
From aggravation
At least you’re not dead
In Hell’s incarceration
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

When I’m covered up and all is black
I hope there’s still a chance of coming back
The ability to see
Thank you dearly

LYRICS
Phase her with a taser
Make ’em run from your gun
Guillotine’s razor
If ya catch ’em havin’ fun
So, ya think might makes right?
(Right! Is that right?)

Whack her with a blackjack
Treat ’em rough n’ handcuff
No cutting slack
Or “call your bluff” stuff
So, ya think might makes right?
(Right! Is that right?)

Warrants no warrant
Some misconduct #uck
All your rounds are spent
Hit the deck, cover, duck!
So, ya think might makes right?

LYRICS
I’m not sure the lesson learnt
Was the lesson intended
Just because you’re wearing blue
Doesn’t mean you can do what you want to
Bringing on the blue boneheaded blues

You’re in my face
In my place
Trying to inflict respect
Systemic cyst
On the rectum ready to rupture
A corruption rapture

Come see the light at Gay Church
Church and Gay each and every day
“On your knees, Boy!” Pray!
Pray at Church and Gay
On your knees and pray

LYRICS
Has anyone seen some sun
Everything veiled in grayscale
A sliver of light would be alright
Delivery from doldrums blight

Rah Ra Hey! Say ray
Right? Right!
Bring on the light

The clouds are putting up a fight
It’ll be too late with the onset of sunset
As any chance is lost to the night
It’s been so long since daylight… I forget

Chorus

May this day give way
As we let the music play
We’ve begun to let in some sun
Out of the shadows through the windows

LYRICS
Police misconduct coated in corruption
An institution of misrepresentation
Brutal brutality beyond reality
In a cloak of hypocrisy

Lord! Save me
Have mercy

Opaque transparency obscured vision
Runaway truck… off the rails… collision
Backwoods thinking social illusion
Militant morons in collusion

Lord! Save me
Have mercy

Po-po doing a no-no… they don’t know
Civil rights trampled won’t grow
Through brute force respect you’ll bestow?
Enraged blockhead lands a fatal blow

Lord! Save me
Have mercy
Lord! Save me
Have mercy

On the Rastafari safari
Rastafari!

Some sort-of spiritual endeavor
That’s going to last for ever and ever
A spiritual endeavor
That’s going to last for ever
Gonna kill you with love

A spiritual endeavor
There’s no responsibility for me

Lively up yourself don’t be no dread now

LYRICS
As you arrive on the platform
The train is already leaving
If you’re off to take the world by storm
Might want to start with some learning
Listen to which way the wind blows
I’ll flow with Her… surely, she knows

Time and time again it never fails
Your ship already sails
When you’re off to take on the world
The next lesson is unfurled
Listen to which way the wind blows
I’ll flow with Her… surely, she knows

No sense making a great big fuss
Just because you always miss the bus
You’ll be better off anyway
Finding the meaning of the day
Listen to which way the wind blows
I’ll flow with Her… surely, she knows

LYRICS
Enough nonsense about where you’ve been
Praying we don’t have to hear it again

Do you gotta confess where you’re coming from
I’d rather you profess where you’re going to
Enough nonsense about where you’ve been
Praying we don’t have to hear it again

Just for fun
Let your dreams run
No matter how mild
Let them run wild!

It’s kind-of pointless where’ you’re coming from
Avoid the mess… What are you going to do?
Enough nonsense about where you’ve been
Praying we don’t have to hear it again

LYRICS
Now I remember…
You always leave a bad taste
Such a waste

Well, look at this
They said ignorance is bliss
‘suppose that’s your picture in the dictionary?
(So fancy and quite contrary)
Thank you for spelling it out… now, it is plain to see
What a waste
Bad taste

If you think you are cute
Ya sure ain’t astute
A fool should stay mute
When unable to refute

Ignorance is bliss?
Sure don’t miss… your kind — unkind with a narrow mind

Cry, baby, cry?
No, now I remember why I said goodbye
Because of all this, “Ignorance is bliss”
If such is this, the only bliss is…
Leaving your arrogance-in-ignorance

Haste for a good taste
Cleanse the palate
And, forget
