LYRICS
What are you expecting me to do
I really don’t have a clue

The water’s foul and the air unfit
Human’s folly… don’t like it a bit

What are you expecting me to do
I really don’t have a clue

Landfill’s filled… gonna have ‘ta quit
‘fore we’re buried in our own $Hit

What are you expecting me to do
I really don’t have a clue

When we had a future — nuclear
20-20 hindsight comin’ in clearer

What am I suppose to do
Please advise… I’m begging you

LYRICS
Do you foresee the future in your future?
Are you sure

Do you foresee the future in your future?

Imagine that the present of your future
In the present of your future

Well fancy that
Your future in the present
Kind-of feels like it’s right here
So very near

Imagine that your future in our presence
A present in our present
The essence of existence in our presence

The essence of the present in our presence

Soaking up the days like soaking up the rays

The present of the present

In the event of severe weather
The question won’t be “Now?” or whether
Message sent —
“Severe weather event”

It seems our dreams of climate change are coming true
Pray tell, well… what will we do?
Message sent —
“Severe weather event”

The wrath of God you can see in the sea
Ominous clouds forebode what’s to be
Message sent —

Livin’ on time lent

LYRICS
There was a farmer who had a dog
No sense in being a hog
Now give the dog a bone

You’re only going to eat the meat
Why not give the dog a treat
Yeah, give the dog a bone

We’re garbage prone
When left to our own
Devices our vices

In the gasp of a flash we’ve made more trash
Better find a real solution to all of our pollution
Like “give the dog a bone”

Chorus

You’re only going to eat the flesh
What about the rest of the mess
The “give the dog the bone”

LYRICS
I had this crazy notion
To create a concoction — Love Potion

I had this crazy notion
To create a concoction
Love potion

A love potion
Spreadin’ from ocean to ocean

Upon suggestion
Create a concoction
Injection
Straight to the heart
Like Cupid’s arrow
And a bow… ya know?
Straight through the heart
A love potion
Can you help the love grow
Spread it from ocean to ocean
Could be the solution
To our situation
The creation
Of a concoction
A love potion

A love potion
Set in motion
Love potion

Solution to our situation
Our hell-bound self-annihilation
We need some new ventilation
It’s hard to breath
I think our hearts will seize
And our brains will freeze

A love potion

If we start to look in our heart
The soul-ution will be the potion
And the potion will spread from ocean to ocean

LYRICS
Day by day
Days go away
Minute by minute
Just won’t quit

Year by year
They disappear
Second by second
We can’t rewind

So as long as the memory knows
Let those memories grow
And as long as our time flows
Living in the present innuendo

Avoid the crazies
Pushin’ up daisies
Entice an embrace
Of the human race
They’ll know your story
In the land of glory

LYRICS
Have you heard of the rat race
A herd in disgrace
A generation lost in space
Left in a haze
Stuck in a maze
Mesmerize with lies
Simpletons amaze
Cracked from the craze

How absurd of a pig race
Humane? Not a trace
A race losing face
Fat cat fit spat
Ain’t where it’s at
Alarm disarm
The donkey can’t see
The Ass disaster
Quick! Run faster

LYRICS
A bouncing ball when under attack
After a fall… will bounce right back

The thing with the spring
After a whack
Gonna bounce right back
On elastic string
After a smack
Gonna bounce right back
The physics of logic

A bouncing ball when you throw me down
Upside down… the turn of a frown

Chorus

If things are looking queerer
It’s ’cause I’m holding a mirror

All the things you spew
Coming back at you
All the things you do
Reflect on you… reflecting onto you
The physics of logic

Where do you think you come from
Genetically modified in a womb
Organism from more than one
From birth on Earth until the tomb

Did you know you’d never grow
If it weren’t for GMO?

When you modify with another
You’re a scientist with the Mother/Father

Rock ‘n’ Roll stars
Shame it couldn’t last
Rock ‘n’ Roll stars
Relegated to the past

So you wanna be a Rock ‘n’ Roll star
Grab your guitar… come as you are
With a passion to play all day
We’ll redefine how the stars shine

Better fadin’way
Than to burnin’ out today
Stars of modern day
Glowing light years away

Make ’em dance
And make ’em sing
Tak a chance
See what music will bring

LYRICS
Out of the web in my cob
With a wink and a nod
For which I yearn to learn
I learn…
I can see… it’s already a memory

Clearing the webs from my cob

Clearing the webs from my cob
With a wink and a nod
For all which I yearn to learn
I can see clearly
It’s already a memory

I can see…
Was already a memory

From within
I begin
To see
Quite clearly

Clearing the webs from my cob
With a wink and a nod
All for which I yearn to learn
I discern
I can see clearly
Already a memory

… already memory

LYRICS
We’re changing the forecast
This overcast can’t last
The drizzle will fizzle
’till the sun shines fine

It can’t stay gray
All through the day… no way
We’re in need of daylight
Before the fall of night

Dream of a golden ray
Shinning this way… it may
Our dreams can come true
It’s all up to me… and you

Fall off the horse… get back on and ride
It’s our will that’ll turn the tide

LYRICS
It’s been a long, long time
Since I laid my eyes upon her
Wonder if she’ll ponder
“Can I make him mine?”

Chorus
Back when going steady was all the craze
ID bracelets… then class rings… what’s the next phase
“Love Hurts” and Heart on the radio plays
[Barracuda guitar riff]
Baby, those were the days

It’s been a long, long while
Since graced with your smile
Still gal with lady style
The more the change, the more the same… no denial

Chorus

You’re lookin’ oh so fine
Sure aged well in time
Beggin’ for a sign
Will you please be mine?

LYRICS
Heard people say you can never go home again
But when I get there they say, “Where’ve ya been?”
Burning bridges mend
Comin’ round the bend
Finding a long lost friend

No surprise when ya look in their eyes
A familiar face… you realize
Burning bridges mend
Comin’ round the bend
Finding a long lost friend

There’s nothing like finding a long lost friend
Except for finding a long lost friend
Burning bridges mend
Comin’ round the bend
Finding a long lost friend

Sorry to say some have passed away
But it’s OK… we’ll meet again some day
Burning bridges mend
Comin’ round the bend
Finding a long lost friend
