LYRICS
If at first you don’t succeed
Persevere … don’t secede
… impede
… choke like a weed
… no more greed

In deed, succeed
… feed, need, heed, lead, seed, creed

We need a union now more
Than ever
Forever our endeavor

LYRICS
It’s on the tip of my tongue
Can’t put my finger on it

Is this some sort-of game
I can’t recall your name
Can’t be some “kind”-of game
’cause this ain’t kind… it’s a shame

Sorry for sounding lame
I can’t recall your name
Though in my heart you’ve fame
Stoking love’s flame

LYRICS
As a matter of fact
That is that
As a matter of fact
That = That

No matter what you’ve done
1 = 1
No matter what you do
2 = 2

As long as I am
I think I can
How about you
Do you think, too?

A philosophical pop-quiz
Is what is is?
Biological drop-dead quiz
Did humanity fizzzz….

LYRICS
Oh noooooo!
OONO
The damage age damage
Age damage Damn age
The damage of age
Oh nooooooooooo!
OONO

Worse than a Yoko to the Beatles
Oh, no
One two many free radical for us all
Oh, no
One too many free radical for us all
The dismay of decay
Don’t want to fade away
Fade away

Worse than a larva attack of beetles
Snakeoil salesman are just weasels
Damn us from the animal kingdom

Longevity travesty of me
… and, it’s getting old
Foretold
… getting old

ABOUT THIS SONG

The free radical theory of aging (FRTA) states that organisms age because cells accumulate free radical damage over time. A free radical is any atom or molecule that has a single unpaired electron in an outer shell. Strictly speaking, the free radical theory is only concerned with free radicals such as superoxide ( O2 ), but it has since been expanded to encompass oxidative damage from other reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), or peroxynitrite (OONO)

LYRICS
It’s not as though we couldn’t know
Nor we could not care
It’s not as though we couldn’t forgo
Nor we were unaware
I’m guessing there’s no trying denying

That’s it — the culprit

There’s no deniability
When it comes to you and me
We know very well the certainty
The inevitability
Of our vulnerability
Creating our destiny of reality

LYRICS
Can we speed things up a little bit
Please, can we?
Of course we’re on a collision course
Plain to see

Inevitable collateral damage from the hit
Unfortunately, includes me
But, even worse…
Includes all of us

No sense in slowing down
Seize or freeze
Wear the devil’s crown
Cease to be

Can we hurry things up a bit
Please, can we?
Get a divorce from this collision course
Ohhhh humanity

LYRICS
Going to go stand in the sun’s glow
Let the glow flow to the beat
From my head to my feet
Let the glow flow from head to toe
Under the skin from within feel the heat

Feed the soul on the shine of the divine
Devour life whole
A soup thick with music
Ripe with the sweet nectar of the guitar

Now the task to bask some in the sun
With a glance to those who dance

LYRICS
We’re building a prison
You’re already in
We’re building a prison
Too late to begin

It’s time to shout,
Breakout!
‘take my freedom,
Takeout

What’s our independence all about?

They’re building a prison
I’m already in
They’re building a prison
Too late to begin

Watch the fall… Independence Hall
Watching the fall of us all
Watch the travesty of liberty
Sights our eyes should never see
