if you got it - gotta gimme the cure
it's about time to fix the problem
if we don't we're gonna be the dead ones
tell me your story
let me know how you've been
what is the issue
pressing you to the edge
how many times will it take to
let it all sink in
what will it take to make you
learn to love and forgive
what makes you want to live in - this life now
how much can you give to win - this life now
it's life now
your life now
grab it by the horns
lift yourself up
take it make it yours
open your mind
strive to be
the best you can be

All Time Cure

It's hot, so hot, I think I've lost my mind
the steam, blowing, big blank across my eyes
sweat drips, so thick, you're underwater now
I swear, I do declare, that sun is sure beating down
the heat of the day
the blaze of the ray
that wonderful sunshine
it soaks in your skin
wells up from within
makes you feel so fine!
when you're feelin' blue
don't know what to do
if you're stuck in a tight bind
just listen to music
it really soothes it
if you're losing your mind
spin the vinyl, cue the cassette, put on the 8 track
Right now
listen to MP3's on your BLUE TOOTH!
music is the all time cure...

Raise The Bar

they say that you have done a good job
but you don't believe a single word they're saying
it's time to climb inside of your head
and raise the blinds and clean out all the cob webs
stop pushing all the negative thoughts
to the top of all the things that you are thinking
you need to just believe that you're right
when you think the things you want can come into your life
calm down, reflect and collect your
thoughts now, what was that you thought that
brought down, everything that you had built up now
look out, you will find that it's still there!
don't let your - self be come
the demon - in your head
you can do - better than this!

Sour Morals
04:58
|

|
take the sun from the sky
they've lost their will to live their lives
there is no hope left for them
is it over yet?
their blackened minds hide behind a stone face
emotionless gaze no thought left
conscience lays there bleeding in the shadows
their life is empty!
GIVE THOUGHT TO YOUR LIFE!
inspecting a sea of people interpreting many faces
so many sour lips and too many furrowed eyebrows
how come there seem to be so many sad people
everyone has a problem they portray as misery
humankind rushes to get themselves to so many different places
all the while screaming and yelling at their spouse
one day it proves that even words are lethal
so many people sitting on their deathbeds
sour morals and manners
how come people hate each other
sour morals and manners
now that decency is unknown
hatred makes so many people unkind
humans should just learn to unwind
assholes have no place in my world
get out get out get out get out
LIFE! IS! THOUGHT!
GIVE! THOUGHT! TO YOUR LIFE!

White Coats

don't trust the white coats
they cram it down your throat
they say it's good for you
big pharma pays off the truth
struck by another illness
your body fights for life
disease spreads quick, such sickness
white blood cells quick to strike
you don't think you will make it
hot sweat drips down your face
won't something make it better
your mind drifts out to space
consumed by feverish dreams
you can't tell what is real
body aching, feeling breathless
you don't trust yourself to heal
what can you do to stop it
where is the remedy
you begin feeling desperate
best friends with the enemy
it might be terminal
this just might be the end
what can you do to stop it
when everything's poisoned
the food that we consume
the water that we drink
the air inside our lungs
it's bad for you and me
another new diagnosis
another new fancy pill
the doctor in cahoots with
all of the pill makers
they pay him off to give you
some new untested drug
let's hope it doesn't kill you
let's hope it kills this bug
growing closer, to the death bed
my last will and testament says
give my body up to science
chop me up and study my head
feed me, my pills - they cure, all ills
I'll pay, anything - I'll pay, everything

Talk Is Cheap
05:42

it costs so much money
to be in the running
of any political office indeed
that's how they are keeping
the public from seeking
those who will never be baited by greed
the public seems barely
aware of this hairy
situation we're sinking so rapidly
instead of just moaning
or whining or groaning
let's bring these ticks down on their fat wobbly knees
to even consider
becoming the winner
of any political office today
you have to pour money
and talk real funny
and lie out your ass until you feel no pain
it's rather disturbing
the ones who are earning
all of the votes from the voting machines
are rich yuppie bastards
who are only after
a much bigger house and a new S.U.V.
I thought politicians
were elected positions
built to serve the people like you and like me
the words public servant
should define that you can not
earn more cash than you could possibly need
let's install the time clocks
these bastards won't outfox
the hourly pay at a minimum wage
let's see how they like
living all of their life
on a regular citizens low rate of pay
I guess I'm not royal enough because I wasn't born into it
I'm just to easy to overlook because I can't throw money at it
I don't fit into your little clique because I actually give a shit
so don't give me any lip, just serve your constituents!
