Moon Soon

 

Gimme that phone, need to talk to earth.
Might be alone, but I'll be the first.
Said we went there back in '69.
It was a Kubrick film, it was all a lie.

Let's break it down, so it's understood.
U/V rays would've got 'em good.
Shadows, radios, and thin space suits.
Let's all agree, we've all been fooled.

But that's alright cause here I am.
Floating solo in this stainless steel can.
A rocket for there and one for back.
Been set on course, right on track.

Walking on the moon soon.
This time for real.
Walking on the moon soon.
This time for real.

The Great Wake 89: Everybody Else

 

Everybody else wants to get back to life.  Everybody else wants to create something. Everybody else wants to enjoy the breeze. Everybody else wants to float around.
Everybody else wants to rock out.

Everybody else wants to high five.  Everybody else wants to hit a show.  Everybody else wants to meditate.  Everybody else wants to read some Word.
Everybody else wants to ignore skin.

Everybody else wants peace and love.
Everybody else wants to go, go, go.
Everybody else wants to say whatever.
Everybody else wants to think originally.
But cry babies must cry.

The Great Wake 88: Staff Infection

 

Walk him out, he can still read the large print.  His legislative maneuvering and rules of order evoking are legendary, the leader of the minority.  The melting face of the Reds.  Supported by a fearless staff, the best proper uppers and downers around, always at the ready to break a fall.  No way they're gonna let him take another black eye.

A staff infection has taken hold, the government professional class is oozing puss and its getting all over the citizens.  Get some gauze, cover it up, get your oxygen at night, it's too gross for others to see.  Go heal, perhaps a leave of absence.  These staffs are elder exploiters, elder abusers, and basic blood sucking leeches.  The staffs have infected the entire government.

Morale is at a record low at the post office, the staff is frowning, they are moving in slow motion.  They do not care.  Everyone in line is frowning.  All the morning drivers were frowning, too.  The infection runs deep, it's in the blood, all the vital organs are impacted, the brain shuts down last.
