Therz not much I wouldn't do, or tell ya Not too many with whom I can't get along But one thing that's for certain You always gotta keep on learning Cuz we don't walk the same as how flies the crow By all means get yourself fired up By all means drag your feet By all means don't you count your castaways...

“Hippie Chik” She’ll never stop loving you She’ll only change her mind I met this pretty hippy chik at my school I asked her to come check out my gig She came by wearign a blac toque and purple scarf Ohh how she danced a jig Well she drinks like a fish And kisses like a star Does her rounds twice again And then she tries to drive her car She’s a rainbow in the black sky A dime bag when the towns’ dry Even if she tried this lady she couldn’t hide... Oh boy she’ll never stop loving you She’ll only change her mind Oh boy she’ll never stop loving you She’ll only, she’ll only change... I’d sleep in a snow bank to make this girl content But she sleeps with other guys When our night is spent I havn’t got a job, and I don’t got a car And boy without those things You can only lover her so far She’s a rainbow in the black sky A dime bag when the towns’ dry Even if she tried this lady she couldn’t hide... Oh boy she’ll never stop loving you She’ll only change her mind Oh boy she’ll never stop loving you She’ll only, she’ll only change mind... She’ll only change. Yeah.

Industy...good ol’ industry... We need industry or we’d starve and freeze Woah industry, cold hard industry... What would we do without you?

People work long and hard just so they can eat So they can drink, get fucked up Make babies and sleep It’s all a part of the working class struggle And without it society would crumble! (CHORUS) ...{It’s be a zombie apocalypse, or like in Mad Max 2...crazy...I bet people WOULD go cannibal...that’s super gnar...man, it would be HARD-CORE!}... We have yet to mention globalization The process in which jobs, products, and CONFLICT is sent to other nations... That’s the price THEY pay to keep US producing more and more So we can spend our days off roaming through the store! (CHORUS) ...{stay tuned for the industry song part 2}...

It’s so sweet to feel heat from the sunshine/ tappin’ your feet to the beat of a drum-line/ seeing T-Rex through your specs in the clouds/ and I’m good to just chill and check it out...

He’s livin’ with the crows and I bet you know that seeds growd’ up... It’s so drastic it rattles the pastic/ but it’s still fantastic magic that they’re casting/ and I’m ego-blasting side ways out the box/ let me tell you something...how I got to detox... You see I took some shit and got messed/ oh but I thought it blessed/ I must confess I only sought happyness/ but in my duress I can get no rest/ hopefully I will find a nest... He’s livin’ with the crows and I bet you know that seeds growd’ up... So I was brought to the hospital/ the doc thought it optimal/ to have me under observation/ that’s when I lost my patience...I felt invaded/ and perpetrated my hands were cuffed/ infuriated I made a fuss/ I was sedated, left a sheet, the door was shut. I guess they had enough. He’s livin’ with the crows and I bet you know that seeds growd’ up... It’s 5 in the a.m./ I hear the raven/ callin’ from his haven and this wool sweaters’ saving me/ yo survive constantly/ that’s my philosophy/ and it ought to be.../I’m lickin’ flowers for their dew drops, and I climb up to the tree tops/ oops I lost my high-tops/ and I’m gettin stoped by the cops/ i tie rocks to arm to protect me from the harm/ I’m sick of the car alarms, boy get me on a farm...I’m paranoid no lock and key, I need someone to talk and see/ that i’m feeling awfully alone... He’s livin’ with the crows and I bet you know that seeds growd’ up... And this scene is obscene/ I’m feeling kinda lean/ I gotta fix for the buzz gonna make me mean/ I’m pickin up butts for the nicotine/ it’s like a dream/ I don’t know where I’ve been... It’s kinda hard to be safe when your homeless/ so stressed/ got no place to undress/ in the darkness/ I want to feel your caress/ yo I’m coping/ hold my knees close to my chest/ if it’s a test, yeah I’m trying my best/ to get myself out of the wreck, plus protect my neck/ and I will never forget to represent/ cuz birds of a feather they flock together... You ask me was it worth it to go down the rabbit hole/ sure it wasn’t perfect, but I still got my soul/ and it goes...and it goes...

“Myrrth” I’ve been out of the saddle for a while And now I keep holding on to my horses I’ve been out of the saddle for a while And now I keep holding on to my horses Mmm the sweet fruit is ready to fall from the tree And the thaws’ been sparkling and trick-a-ling I’m yet to reach the valley, but I’m on the cusp Gazing on the mountains, upon the bounty waiting to be cut (Chorus) Intoxicated by her perfumes Nature’s way of callin’ out while she blooms Smother me in your fragrance Help me consume Grab a hold of my antlers and cradle my hooves (Chorus) I’m lying in a field on a bed of floers The pastures bare and the grains devoured I inhale and tilt my head back Knowing well that my whip can still crack (Chorus) The beast within will no be appeased For he’s not sleeping drowned in debris With belly taught and nostrils flaired Retains his strength, drinks from the mare (Chorus)

Jealous, yeah I’m jealous And insecure for sure God won’t you take this pain from me Yeah I’m jealous of other fellas There must be a cure Could somebody help me to love me? I’ve had a broken heart longer than I knew And now these days I’m hoping that It could work with you I’m afraid, I’m afraid That you’ll find another man That lives close by and still keeps a bottle in his hand (chorus) It’s that noose in my gut That makes me feel sure That I’ll be abandoned That our stars won’t endure I feel like the child that I was before Folks often cross with him And used silence as war (chorus) I’m sorry to be sad But more hungry to please To know true love and not feel judged For praying on my knees Well I might be co-dependently Waiting for you to write (chorus) I need to find some relief Will I learn humility?
