LYRICS
Is the thought of not
A scary thought?

Is the thought of not
Having food lewd
Is the thought of not
Having water screwed
Is the thought of not
Having shelter crude

Is the thought of not
A scary thought?

LYRICS
When are you coming home?
It’s been so long
Since we’ve stood strong
Out on your own
Family juggle
Yet, all alone
Struggle

When are you coming home?
I’ve been away
One or too to many day
Time to find my way
Back home to stay
Not crawling
Hovering
In our comfort zone

Oh, Lord, I’m coming home!

LYRICS
If the dismal drama bothers
Be it mother-in-law
Or brothers
If I had my druthers
Forget fixing their flaw
Let relations thaw

It looks like the ref. is calling a penalty
Let’s see
Yes!
I heard ’em shout
“Time out…
’till you confess”

Fess up to the facts
What you’ve done behind our backs
All the horrid attacks

LYRICS
Got me on a string
Doing that up and down thing
I just want to know
Is it yes or is it no

Ya know
I’m not your digital yoyo

You’re acting all slinky
But there’s no building blocks
The way you play… stinky
Here’s to blowing off your socks

Time to dance to pop at the sock hop

Got me on a string
That back and forth thing
Sorry, but no…
I’ve just gotta go

Do you think we’ve had enough
Just too tough to shove any more in your ear
What does it matter if you don’t hear

Crying tears of blood
There’s a flood
Of humanity

Orifice drainage
Brain damage
Preaching to the choir
Falling on deaf ears
If you’ve fears
They’d best be dire
For that’s what we require
Damn, we demand
We demand damn

LYRICS
The conspiracy is in the hypocrisy of society
99% of the population exploiting themselves
99% of the our evolution burns our wealth
The time to take responsibility for me
Started the moment I was born
It shouldn’t take eternity to see
What we burn
Is what we earn
When we’ve burned is all we earned
What we’ve burnt… isn’t
Maybe then… we’ll yearn
For rationality
As our nationality
Unite
Fight
Hypocrisy
Cold turkey
Quit
Hypocrite

LYRICS
If you think
Everything is going fine
Maybe it’s time
You look around
Besides yourself
What can be found?

Did you ever take a minute
To instead of take… give it?

If the stink
Everywhere makes you whine
Perhaps “not fine”
Is time to sound
Bring on your wealth
Be heavenly bound

Like a blink
Every time will be gone
In your eyes
Immortalize in song
Breakout of stealth
Make a sound

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

It’s half past eight
And, we’re running late
Doesn’t matter much
’cause we’re feeling great

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

Forget destiny or even fate
Gonna kick it out at any rate
Use a smile or laugh as bait
Gonna catch a memory… forever recreate

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

When we get on stage
And start to play
We’ll make the most
Of any day
Immediately — without delay
Troubles with Blues simply melt away

Are you ready for a good time?
Come on, share in mine

LYRICS
How thick is your medium?
It’s been found
The speed of sound
Well, it ah, um…
I’ll ask it
Is it propagating through an elastic medium?

Because if it’s gotta travel through space
You’ll have to face
The tedium
What’s your medium?
Too thick or too thin… hard to get the sound movin’

Ya ever wonder your Mach number?
For fluid dynamics tricks
Pass through a gas
Divide your speed by the speed of sound
For your Mach to be found

If excitement you crave
Catch the sound wave
Succeed at Mach speed

ABOUT THIS SONG
speed of sound at sea level = 761.207051 mph

The speed of sound is the distance travelled during a unit of time by a sound wave propagating through an elastic medium. In dry air at 20 °C (68 °F), the speed of sound is 343 metres per second (1,125 ft/s). This is 1,234 kilometres per hour (767 mph), or about a kilometre in three seconds or a mile in five seconds.

In fluid dynamics, the speed of sound in a fluid medium (gas or liquid) is used as a relative measure of speed itself. The speed of an object divided by the speed of sound in the fluid is called the Mach number. Objects moving at speeds greater than Mach1 are traveling at supersonic speeds. — Wikipedia
