bookmark_borderMarch of the Mindless People

LYRICS
The march of the mindless people
All in the name of the steeple
It’s getting deep but still
The march of the mindless people

The march of the mindless sapiens
Repeat the same phrases
Repeat the same phases
Again and again and again

The march of the mindless people
It’s getting deep but still
In the name of their steeple
The march of the mindless people

The march of the mindless people
It’s getting deep but still
They march, they march, they march… until
The cows come home
Into the setting sun
They march, march, march
’till the west is won
’till overkill is overdone

March, march, march
Hut 2, 3, 4
March into the dark
We march on a lark
Into the dark
The march of the mindless people

All under the name of their steeple
The point, their point on the top of their head
That negates everything they’ve said
They march, march, march
The blind leading the blind
To the unkind

The march of the mindless people
It’s getting dark
But still
They will
Do as they will
The march of the mindless people

LYRICS
Do you consider yourself outrageous
Do you consider your outrageous outright contagious?

Is your outrageous contagious in such a way that it may be spontaneous
Some spontaneous combustion

I feel it churning
The hearts are yearning

Is your outrageous contagious?
Do you consider yourself outrageous
Do you consider yourself outrageous outright contagious?

Can you gauge your outrage
About our time… about our age
You’d think the history book would have already turned the page

Yet we march
Some say stampede
We’ve got to succeed in… divin’ over the cliff
’till we’re all stiff
Over the cliff
‘tell we’re all dead and stiff

Do you consider yourself outrageous
Is your outrageous outright contagious?

The outrageous age ages us
Becoming before it’s due
Yes we do
Become old before we’re due
Yes we do

LYRICS
Have you humans no self worth?
Living on a giant pile of filth
Just selfishness and greediness
Leads inevitably to worthlessness

Does the Pope poop in the woods
A bear Catholic… believing God is good
Can you see the trees through the forest
If one falls can it be heard by the rest

Have you humans all gone mad
Not even the lightest bit sad
Am I standing here all alone
Thinking it’s a shame to trash our own home?

LYRICS
Funny thing… once there was a king
He didn’t know a God damned thing
He’d say, “Why not bring on the onslaught?”
Then he’d say, “Why not? Yeah, why not?”

Funny thing… when the children sing
Their soul hatches then takes wing
They sing, “Why not five it all we got?”
The choir sings, “Why not? Yeah, why not?”

Funny thing… why doesn’t the king
Let go of everything and learn to sing
Finally the enlightenment he sought
Will be said, “He got. Yeah! We got!”

LYRICS
Do you dread what’s in your head
And when you come to
Will you think so, too?

Do you dread what’s in your head?

Well, my guess
If I were to wager
If I were to place a bet
I could just wait and see
As far as I can see
You set your own destiny

You’re better off to figure
Before you pull the trigger
You better figure it out
Don’t scream and shout

Can’t we just put it to bed?

Oh please don’t ever let me get dread locks in my head

LYRICS
I think it’s time we had a talk with your mother
Unless you have some sort-of druther
I think it’s best if we had a talk with your mother
What’s she gonna think when she see’s this stink
“Jesus, not another”

Mamm, I don’t know if you know who I am
No need to slam
But you might want to have a confidential with your boy
’cause it seems in the pursuit of joy
He thought all the rest of us were just his toy
So please
Get him to cease

If I may say…
Being interrupted in such a rude way
I think it’s time we had a talk with your mother
I’m thinking she might be left in awe
Ahhhhh

I’m aweful sorry Ma
But, after all the awe
Your son has caused such dismay
So if I may
Go outside and play
If I may ask
Just spank his ass
That boy is out-of-control
He’s an outta control troll

LYRICS
The clouds are looking quite threatening
Obviously a storm approaching
Wouldn’t you have to say
The signs are as plain as day

Chorus
Dorthy why aren’t you in the fallout shelter
You ain’t in Kansas… more like Helter Skelter
In a land where you land at the bottom of the slide
Taking man’s best friend along for the ride
Toto, too? Total, too

The circulation of the wind
The severity of the blowin’
Storm tracker has it pinned
Storm warning’s been growin’
Wouldn’t ya have to say it’s as plain as day
Oz, Moses

The clouds are looking quite threatening
Obvious a storm is brewing

A song inspired by global warming and extreme weather events.

We are not saying that the Earth’s temperature is just going to rise. In general, as energy is added to a system, the fluctuations in the system increase. So, we expect more storms, more droughts, more wildfires, more floods, more fluctuations of all kinds. What we are saying is that weather conditions will become more volatile due to the impact of humans. (Extreme Weather Events)

Gotta turn the tide

No time like the present
Make yourself present in the present

Take a ride on the slide
Bring your inside
Down to Earth
For what it’s worth

No sense trying to hide the inside
Let your inside out
Let everyone know everywhere
What you’re all about

You’ve got nothing to hide
Let your inside…
Out
Let the whole world know what you’re about

Let your inside slide
Let it out
You can find out what you’re all about

Can’t really tell if you have it in you
’till I see what it is you do
Can’t really tell if you really care
’till I see what it is you share
Consider it a dare

You can talk, you can talk with awe and shock
But when it comes to “thank” can you walk the plank

Chorus

You can fight, you can fight… but can you shed light on the slight
You can fight… can your might gain insight on the site?
