america (america) where have you gone
Chorus
we've been searching for you, ever since that fateful day
when you lost a son, your president, your JFK
and lost the dream, lost the world he would have made,
america, don't fade away
Verse
america home of the brave
america can you be saved?
Chorus
-Crushed-
crushed by the weight of constant compression
digging hole to a deeper depression
trying to hide the calling obsession
like a wave of infection,
bridge
the soul id confounded, the senses surrounded, see sanity leaving
with a glance over it's shoulder, as she floats out the door and the quiet is gone away
brave warriors of the world, do you possess
courage to defy the gods of success
suffer the consequences
of those who dare , dare to resist
bridge
say it's possible please what is and what could be say it isn't so
lest pain take the place of pleasure, in the hearts and souls of men
and there be lost, eternally
america land of the free
america just let it be
we've been searching for you, ever since that fateful day
when you lost a son, your president, your JFK
and lost the dream, and lost the world he would have made,
oh america....... don’t fade away

Pretty People

A voice in my head says I’m so important gotta take a call
Turn the music up
I don’t get nervous and I can’t relax
I can’t relax cause I can’t stand still
Turn the music up music up music up or take a pill
Cause we’re the pretty people pretty people
ya we’re the pretty people we’re vacant
I been shopping but I dunno anything I bought
Had to have it had to have it I was born to shop
Am I good if I don’t feel bad
Am I happy if I don’t feel sad
Am I worth it if I cost a lot
I cost a lot I cost a lot
Cause we’re the pretty people pretty people
ya we’re the pretty people
Cause we’re the pretty people pretty people
ya we’re the pretty people
livin in the 1st world livin off the 3rd world pretty people

Eyes
06:21
|

faces pale, faces fret,
shiny cars for the shiny set,
will they ever get enough of it,
when I look I wanna quit.
We’re all caught up in a world,
with what we can get,
we're all dyin inside
a TV set
It’s in their eyes
I see people and I look right thru,
see the struggles that they’re going thru
See desperation, see no escape,
they’re all waiting for a lucky break
We’re all caught up in a world,
with what we can get,
we're all dyin inside
a TV set
It’s in their eyes
I was there in the beginning, we sat by the river drinking wine
We had traveled such a distance, we came thru space and time
I never get enough,
no no I’m never done,
Oh I never get enough,
never get enough, and I’m never done
We can see, the damage they’ve done, they came, they saw, they had their fun
Ya know they’re gonna take it away You know they’re gonna make us pay
We’re all caught up in a world, with what we can get,
we’re all dying inside a TV set
We’re all dying inside, we’re all dying inside. we’re all dying inside

That's right

"money and viewpoints make up the song...you can go their way, hey....or you can be wrong.... that's right"
just let us judge you societies say,
we can protect you from menacing ways,
conform to our statutes, our truths and our deals,
let us make decisions on how you should feel,
that's right, that's right, that's right,
I gotta tell you I get confused
I got some problems making it through
no sense of reference no sense of state
It’s making me senseless make no mistake
that's right, that's right, that's right,
life doesn't matter life isn't fair
when life doesn't matter then nobody cares
Cuz money and viewpoints make up the song,
you can go their way hey, or you can be wrong
that's right, that's right, that's right,

Why oh Why
04:52
|

hold her face in my hands cast a gaze across the sands cross the sands cross the sands
years have come the years are lost she paid a price at such a cost hold her hand hold her hand
she cries says to me
oh why
can't they let it be
Why do make the same mistakes, why oh why
Why do we make the same mistakes, over and over
Why do make the same mistakes, why oh why
Time after time after time after time
a soldier waits, he points his gun
his eyes are squinting in the sun,
in the sun, in the sun
his soul is dry, his body shakes ,
his hands are cold he starts to shake
he’s the one he’s the one
he sighs and says to me oh why can't they let it be
Chorus
They’re takin us over you know it’s fact,
stealing our souls won’t give em back
old men cold men,
they send you to war,
don’t give a damn,
give you a gun will make you a man
old men cold men,
And I I AM ASKING WHY
and I wanna kill this Lie
I say....... give peace a try
Why do make the same mistakes, why oh why
Why do we make the same mistakes, over and over
Why do make the same mistakes, why oh why
over and over and over and over

Spraybomb.....
03:32

They are the artists artist is man
They have a paint brush it comes in a can
and They change the landscape one by one
They’re changing the way that we look at our world,
they keep on the run
They know where the wild things grow
They know where the wild things go
V
spy vs spy, the dems and the vols an urban tattoo
space age performers like Banksy and Blu
Shadows and cyphers, they run in the night
They spray on their beauty, and keep out of sight
C
And
They know where the wild things go
They know where the wild things go
And
They know where the wild things grow
they know
They’re not the gangsters, the one’s with the flags
They’re just creators, they don't need to tag
With thought and with courage they shout out the call
Just give them a canvas, just give them a wall
And
They know where the wild things grow
They know where the wild things go
Daser, berzurka, Futura 2000 and young little cubs
Kreate and Kunfusion and Death From Above
It’s art
it’s raw
it’s misunderstood
Just cuz you don’t understand
don’t mean it ain’t good

They got some lasers now in outer space,
they're gonna, do what?
They got some lasers now in outer space,
they're gonna, do what?
the space controls are set for the sun, see the scurry
I read instructions how to gaffle a gun, gotta hurry
space invaders are invading my mind
I'm getting saturated
seems i'm living on a planet that's been activated
hey now Ronnie point your ray gun ready for the big bang
watching solar systems bowing into pieces my be something
it could be pretty ha ha ha
watching solar systems blowing into pieces might be something, it could be pretty ha ha ha ha
just like in star warz party time,
star warz, party time
star warz party time
star warz
I'm out on my starship
and the sun is getting nearer
slip us into warp drive Scotty,
get us outa here
cast into cosmos, scattered all through
everywhere to go
but nothing to do
hey now Ronnie point your ray-gun ready for the big bang

idicusmax Essaouira, Morocco
I have been hanging out here on this blue green dot for enough time to write a song or two..I am a bit of a punk but more a
hippie, (they really aren't that different)
I have an unstoppable desire to comment on humanity, both good and bad, my songs reflect my observations. I love this little planet.
It's the best one I have been on so far.
