1. Cosmic Gold 2. New One 3. Earthly Creatures 4. Father Hubbard 5. Wholly Shit 6. Thoth
1. Cosmic Gold
There are those that hail the stars
And who’ve seen spacecraft here from Mars
The whole while boast that their own race
Is one of the archetypes fallen from grace
So no grace means much disgrace to
Newly engineered microscopic crews
Always overlooked until disease infects
Passed from host to host by tiny insects
Though all heavens leave it be from their offerings of guidance
While every taste is sampled in these raging seas
For mountains are moved by mindless mentalities
Meaning an end to that prophetic disease
Said plague beyond proportion of misgiven tidings
To mere children in want of a hand to hold
Know once the stones are set to position the planets
Our worlds will align to smelt this cosmic gold
2. New One
I’ve not come far in all these years From the moment I cried my first tears
Know that my own is in its prime But I feel my body has not much time
Went through so much when I wuz young A thousand times have had my neck wrung
Seems every day’s a struggle to keep My head above the waves as they sweep
Down- how I feel all the time now Always wiping sweat from off my brow
See I put myself into this pain Have confined my shelf in restrains
No real goals or aspirations for Anything I think of as being more
Still trying to deal with what I’ve got No time to worry ‘bout what I’ve not
Being so damn melodramatic Can one just be this problematic?
Cuz it’s all too real for me here In my little world full of shame and fear
For reasons I can’t explain in depth Not now or with my final breaths
So you’ll just havta trust me when I say “I will not let things be these ways”
No more heartfelt prayers before my sleep I’ll fight tooth and nail my own to keep
I’ll have my life if it fucking kills me Cuz I know this ain’t the way it sposta be
3. Earthly Creatures
Laboratory mice aren’t so awfully mute
With genes split/spliced by timed electrocutes
“Out to find a cure for a threatening disease”
That is what is told to put minds at ease
But really someone’s out for a way to market
D.N.A. altering cosmetic products
To help you look all pretty or just more fake
With any side-effects guaranteed your mistake
As for gorgeous forests, flowers, plants, trees
And all insects and animals that live off these
Damn shame that it all hasta be brought down
Room for concrete’s needed to build an urban town
Brilliant cities infest with poverty
Crime via cops never stops the Nuclear families
Or the business of government and their religion$
Time to die, no need cry, take your pick- the Pen or the Gun
Death and destruction all around Nature’s burnted straight to the ground
It never ends, there’s no line drawn Earthly creatures dead and gone
We’re all such strangers to this place that we inhabit
Human beings are no kinds of caretakers for a planet
You see we rape the land to poison the air and water
Made life the only hell for all of our sons and daughters
There is nowhere to turn blame No scapegoat could’ve built these flames
It never ends, there’s no line drawn Earthly creatures dead and gone
4. Father Hubbard
I’m just so ensnared in my own pitfalls
Treating people as if porcelain dolls
Though it’s all about me getting off dontcha see
The last thing I want is for your soul to be free
I’m a spiritual poseur with a book ta boot
And all I’m really after is my paws in your loot
So I’ll pump ya fulla fantasies ‘bout cash and fame
Till even your own family will be doing the same
But hey now, guess what? It’s not justa dream
Cuz I iron your reality till it’s straight at the seams
Sewn with threads of lies and tailored to the tee
Now whose twisted definition wuz this of FREE?
It’s MINE- always mine. Everything that’s ever been
Not just Scientology but every religion
You’re a fool if you think it’s about other than money
Or your constant lack of it while mine flows, tiz funny
In fact, it’s Fucking HILARIOUS!
Cuz I’m laughing all the way to the bank
To debate over whether or not to start sellin’ crank
Since I’m already a pushpushpusher of god (or godlike deities)
I might as well go all the way and expose the fraud
Get em High – Suck em Dry – Show em Why – They must DIE
For committing the ultimate of all sins
Wondering how all this could ever have been
5. Wholly Shit
At once a graven image is brought outta the ashes
Of a long forgotten society
Its symbols of trust and understanding are distorted
To fit the molds of all thought wicked
By the grace of a god that is neither mine nor yours
Time is ruled and days are numbered
So that image of a higher power will be feared
In all ways- ALWAYS
Even the invasion of our own minds and bodies
Might go unnoticed in lieu of the currency lost
How this result could’ve come is more of a mystery
Than the core of the problem itself
Another graven image is brought outta the ashes
Of a long forgotten society
Its symbols of trust and understanding distorted
To fit the molds of all thought wicked
6. Thoth
