Dawn Of The Bug
05:06
|
|
||
It's about to begin
The horror can't be stopped
This is no normal flu bug
Or just an aggravated little cough
A little something we've been working on
For quite a long time
I kills 9 out of 9
And leaves you deaf, dumb and blind
And who are we
To question what they do?
After all, it's security
For the red, white and blue

My body aches
My head's afire
I haven't got the strength
To bury my wife
So who needs a bomb?
We've got something new
Uncle Sam has a killer disease
With no cure
We trained you well
And we taught you how to kill
We did our best to make you what you are today
So I've got to fight
Just lay here and fight
Or lay down my life for the red white and blue
You know what to do
Defend democracy
Destroy the enemy
But who'll be left alive?

Mush Pot
07:15
|
|
||
When I look back now I can still see you
Looking as you and I used to
Opacity that clouds my brain
Trying to block away the pain
I hear the songs we used to play
I feel your loss inside of me
Our childhoods gone inside a wink
As we were swept our separate ways
But where are you now?
Clinging to one another in a sea of disarray
Where are you now?
Our cities were made of paper
And the wind blew them away
Long gone are the days when childhood ends
Build us a mush pot, create our own zen
In mountains of mud made by our hands
You were my brother, you were my friend
But where are you now?
My brother, my friend, where are you now?
In my time of darkness show me a light
And though you're not with me I can still feel you now
I still feel you now

Calm
06:59
|
|
||
As darkness unfolds the feelings inside
Are not as intense, but just as defined
Drop into sleep, living within
Living in death, dying again
Looking beyond
Don't be afraid to go on
And reach for the calm and feel it
My life is gone
You're knife is deep in my gut
I'm feeling the calm
You're smile is gone
The job you set out to do is done
I'm calm
When you were born you thought you were the one
And so you are
Who else knows what it feels like inside being alone?
Swelled with emotion, riding the wave
As one man weeps, thought enslaved
Reaching for the catalyst to make it go away

Dexter's at the door, baby, he's got the cure

In a little bag in the back of his head
Ya know you gotta get ready for Mr. Red
Dexter McThorphan, yeah

'Cause he's Dexter McThorphan, yeah
Trippin through the store 'cause I gotta get more
You know I gotta get more, more, more, more, more
Of that Dexter McThorphan, yeah

Dexter McThorphan, yeah

French Windows

He rose from his bed
It was just in time to see
That the nightmare he'd been having had come to be real
It was just as real to him now
As the day he was born
But who could ever know?
A child taught to hate himself, a prophecy fulfilled
While I was left unknowing of what I'd done to him
With those self inflicted arrows in his wounded soul
And the failure he had learned was all he'd ever known
So God looked down from his throne to see
He was obviously displeased
You could tell
A way for him to understand the feelings he had known
And to decimate the shards of glass that formed around his heart
The time has come to change these empty feelings into love
And live now

Ant Song
01:57
|
|
||
The ants have the right to life
The ants have the right to survive
Don't let them take that away from you
The ants the right to life
The ants have the right to die
Spray them with Raid and they will die
Put your legs up in the air and roll on your back
The ants have the right to die
The ant have no right to exist
Extinction's the answer for them
Well we'll just drop a neutron bomb wherever they may live
The ants have no right to exist
The ants have no right to exist

TV Inc.
02:30
|
|
||
Days of fun and days of sun
I'm young, my life has just begun
Seems to me that things are just the way that they should be
I've got my wife, I've got my car, I've got a dog out in the yard
It seems to me I've got the things that TV says I need.
I've got what I need
What TV says I need
Would TV lie to me?
Now my wife has got the cough
The dog is dead out in the yard
It seems to me that things are not the way that they should be
People talking all around agree an answer must be found
But the TV says that everything's the way that is should be
The way that it should be
Should be for you and me
Has TV lied to me?

I'm sitting in a cabin on a vessel on the sea
And I don't know where I'm going and I don't know where I've been
Solid starts where fluid stops, but no one's drawn the line
Seas of red and skies of green are mine
All alone in a mystic world of beauty undefined
Pillars of stone hang from above while water flows behind
Deep down below the crust at the center of the earth
Amazing just how light is is down here
A mountaintop beyond, the trees just above
Our path is clear, a bird engaged in love with the air
By train we stop into the village at the bottom of the stairs
A yellow sun and my destiny are yours
A tightness in my gut as the Chinese gather 'round
I am one of them, but I haven't been before
Expressions all but gone as you blankly stare at me
Our destination waits but no one knows just where
Yellow light around off my yellow skin
dusty is our cabin on this cosmic train
In response to me the woman with no chin
Answers my request: The cosmos are in proportion
My tired body slumping down as gravity takes over now
A sleeping mass is in my bed
Music rings in my head
Eternity in a dreamy world as thought I had the time
But my own thoughts and actions are not mine

Epilogue
02:24
|
|
||
As I feel the darkness settling here
My senses have returned, now it's clear
Ignorance, the price of fear
The ghosts of us all, four billion or more
So what's one more?
It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be
Still, I thought there'd be more
Our lives, our culture, our people are gone
There's no one to talk, nothing to prove
The battle is done
Dying, the price of freedom
No Iggy, no Ziggy, no spiders from Mars
All given up for some foolish cause
It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be
Still, I thought there'd be more

Memories
06:44
|
|
||
I came to you when you called to me
And I believed, I was deceived
You comforted me under your deadly wing
My severed emotions not feeling a thing
You laid me down
You held the crown
Your understanding the depths of the seas
The bottom of them I confided was me
Salvation, my savior, you were my god
How could I have known of the horrors to come
You held me down
You wore the crown
Who'll hold me now?
Who'll save me now?
How could your presence catch up to me
Just when I thought that I was out of you reach?
Your strength and persistence is too strong to deny
For me to surrender would be for me to die
You tore me down
You stole the crown
Well I remember the day when you stole my mind
And you left me filled with nothing inside
My heart and soul were yours to confine
Now you're calling to me and I want to respond
With the same eager zealousness that I have learned
Why the hell can't you leave me alone?
Why can't you leave me along?

Leaves Of Green
04:39
|
|
||
These trees of green
How much they've seen
These trees of green
From here the trees
Know they are safe
How wise they seem
And they're so tall
They rise above
The pain below
Oh, trees
Call to me
And comfort me
In leaves of green
How far yet near
Your safety lies
You know you're free
If you could see
My pain is great
Below your leaves
Oh, trees
Call to me
And comfort me
In your leaves of green

And leaves you deaf, dumb and blind
And who are we
To question what they do?
After all, it's security
For the red, white and blue
