New EP Launch: Which Way? (January 28, 2022)

LYRICS FOR WHICH WAY? EP
Unwind Your Mind
If you snooze you lose and if you lose you choose the blues/,
and with the blues you choose your ruse, or so says Dr. Seuz /
it was something like that or maybe not quite, coulda sorta mighta been more like….. When you fell on your head and your head bled red you were taken for dead until you told your friend ‘hey unbend my head.’
so slide slide slippity slide u think you’re moving up and u’r falling behind/
so drop that rut before you’re dead and play with your mind a bit instead and re-learn to be silly like when you were young when you were only serious about having fun. ((short pause, edgy progression next)))
got a 4 year old who’s reminding me how to rhyme and find time to unwind my mind. Like he’ll say I’m not tired. I’m just wired so get me some milk and a big fat tire; /
Or I found a dinosaur’s tooth in the yard, I tried to bite it and boy it’s hard;/ Or time to rise and shine cause it sunny outside and I feel fine/ Let’s play a game, you be the bad guy and I’ll be a French fry/
/ You know what, King Tut met a duck on a truck, what luck/ Or the kitty cat wants to eat so let’s feed its teeth and give him meat Or don’t be late cause I’ve got a date with a grape isn’t that great/
so slide slide slippity slide u think you’re moving up and u’r falling behind/ so drop that rut before you’re dead and play with your mind a bit instead / and re-learn to be silly like when you were young when you were only serious about having fun.
THE DRONES
listen up grunts, I got something to say/
(Just one word: Obey) / (power up and fire away)/ (listen well and don’t your stray)
(ah uh hey oh) attention, stand straight fall in line. Shoot, plunder then surrender /
we’ll rain shock and awe on your people, drop a drone or two at dawn/ launch it from a cubicle, starbucks in my palm/
just a stroke of the keyboard, and it might feel like a sham,/
but you’re home for dinner and a movie with the fam/
so cue up the baddies with deadly aim/grab the joystick and make it rain/ It’s just a souped-up Atari on your computer screen/ It hardly feels real when you don’t hear the screams
attention, stand straight, fall in line. Shoot, plunder then surrender
(if the drones get you down try to smile they say it changes your mood, tricks you into feeling goood)x3/
it’s just another dumb war in a land you can’t spell/ for a cause you can’t tell, at a cost we can’t shell
we’ll see some losses sure, and while that’s not swell, if it’s another guy’s kid then what the hell/..
it’s mostly remote done by remote control/
you got your earphones on blasting rock, and roll
while you click and scroll, click and scroll, click and scroll, click and scroll, click and scroll, click and scroll, then fire away
and on and on it goes, what can I say: Disobey.
Fire away! On and on it goes and on & on it goes and on & on it goes and on & on it goes…..it’s just play!
On and on it goes and on & on it goes and on & on it goes and on & on it goes…..What can I say?
On and on it goes …..it’s just a video game!
On and on it goes …..you shut t Listen up grunts, I got something to say. Just one word: he screen it goes away
On and on it goes and on & on it goes and on & on it goes and on & on it goes…..So disobey!
ON THIN ICE
Skate on thin ice, on melting ice caps/ don’t mind the cracks just mind the gaps / Ready or not we’re in for heavy weather and we’re not… even in it together
Breathe in breathe out take a pause… find the cause/
Breathe in breathe out make some laws/ fix the flaws/don’t wait for chaos. Breathe in breathe out/ It's your only job and its called survival, like the cockroaches do and the cockledoodledo, you know they're doing it better than me and you, me and you.
There’s a storm comin on and the rain is piling high but don’t hide, go outside / We’re in a trance, sleepwalking by chance and back on
you try to glide but slip and slide/ The ice cracks and wants to take you down down / It seems we’re caught in a trap of the past and the land has become quicksand, a morass/ Watch ice turn to water and water placed on boil as we bathe in our waste and oil
Breathe in breathe out, take it in, let it out; ommm/ It’s you’re only job and its called survival, like the cockroaches do and the cockle-doodle-do, you know they're doing it better than me and you, me and you
Gotta get past the past, find a way back to now. You can skate, swim or roam but can you find your way home? /
We’re in a bind, ice is on the thaw, damn where’s that mantra, lost in the inbox, it’s time for a planetary detox, /
Don’t slip don’t Slide, don’t get pulled into the tide, we’re on the edge but still alive./
If the ice cracks or melts, or rather when, remember to swim to shore if it’s still there then. / If it’s still there then…
Don' forget to breathe on your way out/ You gotta think like a kid now, like your kid’s kid now.
WHICH WAY?
Shuffled down the street feeling alone, barely a pulse, nobody home
So its time to decide which way you’re gonna go. Out on your own or, where the buffalo roam, Take a straight line home or veer off the road/
Worked in an office for a decade or more/Another google monkey. a corporate whore/ Not sure where I’m headed but I’m closing that door/ ‘Cause I Got dumber by the day, number by night/ stacked up some bills but the price wasn’t right / Was upright but each day more uptight/ tangled up in rot and Caught up in proxy fights
Pecking away at the screen for the team/ Parked my butt each day in an open cage/ Head shrunk for pay but I was too bored to escape
that place / So it’s time to decide…
Now I’m outta the cage but still cant get no satisfaction/ Hustling on my own, moving through a sea of distraction/ Caught Under gigabytes of
inaction/ it gets easy to do nothing all day/
got hypnosis by the screen but you got no traction / well at least you’re
lost in thought all the same /
Don’t got a gig, not sure I want one/ Least not one that wants me back
/ between complacent and apathetic/ or just pathetic a bit scared /
How can I monetize my mind and stay sane at the same time?/
The future’s hazy and feels like a maze, I’ll poke around, I’ll
get there/Just not sure the how the why the what the when the where
I used to follow all the rules, At home and work and school
Do the work more or less on time/ Apply to the right places, excel,
shine/ Make folks proud, don’t talk too loud/ Hit the books, playball,
and ignore the gnawing doubts/ Prepare for domination/ Gonna join
the master-class /Thought I was the one giving a class in kicking ass/ I
was killin it, the world was mine/Well, you wake up one morning and
find you’re only killing time/ Stroke, stroke, heart attack tack tack..
side effects might include.. Stroke, stroke, heart attack tack tack..)
ANALYSIS PARALYSIS
I’m a bit mixed up,
d-d-dazed and confused,
stumbling in a maze
can’t read the clues
My time’s almost up
Here come the blues
lost in the haze
got nothing left choose
When indecision’s a permanent condition /
And you’re… wracked with doubt
All your wishes, lack conviction
And there’s… n-no way out
Analysis, paralysis!
Welcome to my mind
Analysis, paralysis
When all you got is time
Analysis, paralysis
You’re tangled up in answers
To questions you can’t find
Could go here or there, up or down,
front, back or sideways or run to the ground
inside out or downside up
like walking downtown with your eyes wide shut
so edge ahead, fall back and stall for time
you’re stuck in a rut, in the same mind grind
you’ll drift around, meander and wander
And find another angle or two to ponder (rat a tat tat)
When you’re drowning in choices you got more to lose
a little money in the bank’s an excuse not to choose
keep eyeing every little road not taken
flip a coin to break the tie
either way you’re numb so why even try
so eenie meenie miny moe…rock paper scissors / tictactoe
ask Siri, maybe she’ll know, and if not go with the flow, or its…
Analysis, paralysis!
Welcome to my mind
Analysis, paralysis
When all you got is time
Analysis, paralysis
You’re tangled up in answers
To questions you can’t find
I’ll stay lost in the maze wandering the haze, searching the way for days and days, let’s hope it’s a phase/ I sure am confused + dazed/ you think you’re on a mountain top, Bill: you’re on the side of the hill/ you think you’re on a moutain top Jack: you’re in a cul de sac / you think you’re on a mountain top Pete: you’re on a dead end street, on the side of a hill—a molehill, in a cul de sac with your friend Jack now that’s a fact
THE CIRCUS
Elect a clown, expect a circus
You try to look away but .. can’t avert it
like stumbling on an accident or the scene of a crime
But the spectacle’s on your dime and unfolding in real time
So come one come all, it’s a monster’s ball
Guess what? The laugh’s on us all, y’all
Now we’re on the trapeze without a net
And its way too late to say Nyet
You’ve got Putin calling the shots with
oligarchs in yachts preying off the rot/ cranking out toxic bots
Watch the clown car cabinet rolling down the avenue
They’ve paid to play and now were paying up the wazoo
It’s a motley crew, some are dancing with the stars,
some are behind bars and let’s hope the rest aren’t far) the
Most are at the trough at the gold plated tower
And one’s in Moscow getting a golden shower
Whether you like it or not doesn’t much matter
The Selectoral College will throw your vote under water
So grab some popcorn or some Fentanyl
And come one come all, To the monster’s ball
The rearguard revolution will be televised and tweeted
You’ve got nepotism and crony capitalism in a dead heat now
It’s a circle jerk in a circular firing squad
and the collateral damage is spreading far and wide
it hits the huddled masses, the poor, the working classes,
cause it’s a government of fat cats, plutocrats and other asses
the strongman’s a strawman grasping at straws and pussy
a carnival barker on the take taking orders from the enemy
ladies and gents come one come all, / we’re in a free fall….
it’s just a monster’s ball instrumental
Now we’re on the trapeze without a net
And its way too late to say Nyet
You’ve got ) Putin calling the shots with oligarchs in yachts/ preying off the rot/ and cranking out toxic bots
Remember in this circus there is no safety net
You fall through the cracks you break your neck
You hope the risks are somehow remote
Then you remember whose got the nuclear codes
We’re all circus animals now..
Especially if you happen to be black or brown
IF you come from a Muslim land
Looking for freedom, screw you, you get a ban)
The circus elephant looks on idle and mute
Ready to scoop the circus master’s puke
It’s like when you flush the toilet And the waste keeps rising
The joker’s cackling at the moon while the tide keeps climbing
Not to worry, climate change is a hoax
At least that’s the official joke told by lobbyist folks
running the Environmental Pollution Agency
Where science, like the air we breathe, has gone a bit hazy
Come one come all, Its just a monster’s ball (transition F#màGm-àF#m)
The toilet’s funk spilling over your feet / and your jaws just clench
You’re feeling overwhelmed, tangled up in blue/ So what to do? What can you do? /
to soldier through, sometimes ya gotta scrape the shit right off your shoes Scrape the shit off your shoes
Don’t succumb to the show and clown, vote the circus right out of town
I mean get in it, to win it so even the Selectoral College can’t rig it
