I See The Light

Posted on June 2, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
At night you can see the light
Coming down the track
Better move back

’cause that’s an impressive locomotive
Impressive loco motive
Better move back
Coming down the track

If you go head-to-head with a loco motive
You’d better use your brain when it comes to the train (of thought)
Better move back

The train will squash your brain
You’d better move back
From the track

Fusion Illusion

Fusion Illusion.mp3

LYRICS
Don’t let the fusion of the illusion
Become your delusion

If you see a fissure
In the division of vision
You start to question asking why
We should even try
Get trapped in the vicious lie
Fission vision

To the native eye
Teardrop… cry

Fusion illusion becoming one with your delusion
Don’t let the fusion of the illusion
Become your delusion

If you’re feeling your life is just for using
If you think it’s your right to fight and abusing
The fusion of your illusion is an evolution

Add to the confusion of the illusion
Your fusion into delusion — collusion
Ya add to the mass hysteria
Delusional
Delusion all

Battle Cry

Posted on June 2, 2015June 2, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
Pick up your battle axe
Head on to the battle field
Where the reality is found
Of your battle wound

Chorus
Let out your battle cry
“We’re all gonna die!”
Does it matter why?
Doesn’t matter why?

Pay up you due tax
On your illegal yield
Less, when “The Book” is unbound
Your fate will be doomed

Chorus

Hippy Dippy Whetherman Part 2.mp3

LYRICS
Seriously? Conspiracy theory?

It’s kind-of pungent
To be that ignorant
One thinks it stinks

Seriously? Really seriously?
Your conspiracy theory
So silly
You must be kiddin’ me
Seriously? Conspiracy theory?

Why chemtrails in the sky
Why 9/11… some divine heaven
Why vaccination intimidation

Silly. Seriously conspiracy theory?

Do you like the controversy
When you distort the story
Or is really just pungence
From ignorance
One thinks it stinks!

A Crime Of Irration

Posted on June 1, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
22,000 days
If you’re lucky 100 years
Death displays in so many ways
Creating uncertainties… creating fears

Is your crime wasting time
Cheating the human race
Is your crime wasting time
Taking up precision space

22,000 ways
All days to shed in tears?
Keep death at bay on any given day
Shedding light… overcoming fears!

Is your crime wasting time
Cheating the human race
Is your crime wasting time
Taking up precision space

Can’t acquire a taste for waste

LYRICS
If you’re living in rubbish
Maybe it’s time to relish…
Livin’

Lovin’ livin’

If you’re living is rubbish
Maybe it’s time to start loving living
Relish living

If your living is hellish
Maybe it’s time to banish
The rubbish

If you’re living in rubbish
Might be time to relish
Living loving living loving

If it’s devilish in the hellishness
Caught up in the jealousness
What a mess

Might be time to be loving the living

Feeling hellish living in rubbish
Maybe it’s time to garnish
Put on the relish
Start loving living
Living loving
Loving living

Time to let go of the selfish
And start to relish
Loving of the living
Start giving
Loving of the living
Loving living

Wish relish

Sign Of Our Sine.mp3

LYRICS
If ya need to clear your head
Better off going back to bed
Instead of rants in a rage
About your self-imposed cage

The sign of our sine wave into the future
The time for our sign is now and evermore

Regretting the things you said
Should have gone back to bed?
A victimization rationalization
Victimization rationalization

The sign of our sine wave into the future
The time for our sign is now and evermore

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 3

E A D

Written and recorded along West River Drive and the Schuylkill River in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Ya Know?

Posted on May 29, 2015 by admin

A song for people that say, “You’ll never know unless you try it.”

LYRICS
Certain things you want to experience
Certain things you don’t
Certain things provide life’s essence
Experience death and you won’t

I don’t have to try
Know I don’t wanna die
No need to poke out an eye
To “see” if I’ll get by

Chorus

No need to lose a limb
To long for how it’d been
No traumatic brain damage
‘ta see if I’ll act my age
See if I’ll act my age, again
Age, again, age, again….

Chorus

Ya Know? .mp3

LYRICS
I bet that really stings
Makes your ears ring
Causes throbbing pain
Lack of oxygen to the brain

The road less traveled is more unusual
Such is learned by the stampede of the cruel
Do you see the cruelty of the cruel crowd rule?

(bullfight music interlude)

I bet that really brings
Pain and suffering
Obviously misery
Blinding is what I see

Choose Wisely

Posted on May 27, 2015May 27, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
If we pick our battles like we pick our nose
Who knows where that goes

Ya might start to run
Ya might start to bleed
It’s no fun
Having to concede

Have we slipped into a rabbit hole
New Age mole… through the looking glass
Does time move pass n’ weigh too fast
Does too fast turn to wayback past

Chorus

While we have hands to have tome on our hands
Time to let loose on the command and command understand

Make Yourself At Home

Posted on May 27, 2015May 29, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
There’s a big wide world larger than me
Now that’s easy to see
Since we share this consciousness why not requiesce
And go from I to us?

How can I ever be alone
Isn’t Earth all of our home?

If we wanna claim we’re from outer space
And not part of our race
Some sort-a born again alien
Better think again
Isn’t Earth all of our home
How can I ever be alone

Its time to hunker down and then charge in
… much to their chagrin
Get together begin sporting a universal grin
How can we ever be alone
Isn’t Earth all of our home?

Fawn On The Run

Posted on May 26, 2015May 26, 2015 by admin

LYRICS
There’s nothing wrong with searching and searching
As long as your researching is educating
Learn something new ’bout every moment
Startled by the movement
Think I surprised you?
You scared the crap out of me, too
But now that I see you’re just havin’ fun
Fawn on the run

There’s a squirrel lookin’ down at us
Thinking “in too bad taste” to be nuts
Had to agree, wink and nod
We should act like animals instead of God
Takin’ in the moment
Startled by the movement
Think I surprised you?
You scared the crap out of me, too
But now that I see you’re just havin’ fun
Fawn on the run

Fawn On The Run Songwriting at Lake Wynonah

ABOUT THE SONG
E7sus4 E7 A7
D6 A7 E7sus4

Have you ever been scared of something only to find out there was nothing to fear? Such an instance inspired this song. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something moving. It was only a few feet from me. I could see it was larger than a rabbit… it was larger than a groundhog. It started stumbling and fumbling right toward me. Then, I recognized it was a fawn. It barely knew how to standup and run away.

Written and recorded at Lake Wynonah, Schuylkill County, PA.
