LYRICS
You, you rebel-rouser
You push buttons (Yes, you do)
More than life’s browser
Finger in the eye (I) of the gluttons

Yes, you, you rebel-rouser
Attempt to arouse
A fashion of compassion
Revolution revelation

Get people up to their ears
In up in arms
Until actualization of fears
Yields to concern for alarms

LYRICS
Where are the people?
Seeking refuge from the steeple
When will they realize?
See all the people
Seeking refuge under steeple?
It’s The End… surprise!

Will we rise
To the occasion?
Immortalize
Homo sapien?

7 plus billion
Earthling refugees
Trying to flea.
Plight — oblivion
Obviously,
Caused by you and me… we

Will we see
Our self-destruction?
Can we be?
Humanity surrection

LYRICS
All filled up with gumption
Humane presumption

Well then give it a go
Let the energy flow

Do unto others?
Betrayed by Brothers
Can’t claim they don’t know
Jihad’s God’s foe

The Bible… Torah, too
And, again in the Quran
Thou shalt not kill
Another’s freewill
[Under direct order not to murder]

LYRICS
Look! Everything’s coming up roses
Looking through my rose-colored glasses

One supposes
Even the politicians don’t appear as asses
No such luck
They’re still looking dumb as….

Still
An optimistic perception
Will
Give rise to immaculate conception
’cause Holy $hit… that’s it!
Time to birth an idea with worth

Look! Everything’s coming up roses
Looking through my rose-colored glasses
The roses are read
Pessimism’s dead

You make it look so easy
Is it really?
Really easy as you make it look?

From the time that it took
To knowledge of every cranny and nook

From the rhyme and the hook
To every stage trick in the book

How Tall Can a Lego Tower Be Before It Crushes Itself? .mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
C Dm Eb
C Cm

Inspired by a news story. The BBC reported, “It’s not just children who like to build towers with Lego – the internet is alive with discussion on how many Lego bricks, stacked one on top of the other, it would take to destroy the bottom brick. So what’s the answer? ” The article goes on to say, “Safety glasses on, the engineers begin to nervously edge towards the door.

“We’re setting it up automatically, so that we can all back out of the room, so none of us is in range when the thing goes bang,” Johnston explains – positioned, I notice, slightly behind me.”

“The force climbs on, above 4,000N. And then… Nothing. Well, not much. There is no big bang. The brick just kind of melts. ”

“So – how many Lego bricks, stacked one on top of the other, would it take to destroy the bottom brick?
375,000 bricks towering 3.5km (2.17 miles) high is what it would take to break a Lego brick.

That’s taller than the highest mountain in Spain. It’s significantly higher than Mount Olympus [tallest mountain in Greece]”

But could a 3.5km Lego tower really be built?

“There isn’t a chance you could do it in reality,” Johnston says. “Long before the brick fails, the tower would fail as a structure itself, by buckling.

Real life can be so disappointing sometimes.”

You will see all we can be

Dot the I’s and cross the t’s

Certainty with clarity

Who creates our destiny?
