Dynamo

I looked at my bike
And it had a dynamo
I put on my wheels
But the wheels they went too slow
I wanted to have light
I wanted to be seen but my
Dream of a fast bike
Well it stayed as just a dream
I went to the bike shop
And I looked at all the wheels
I saw a real light one
It was a very sweet deal
I rode it home and back again
And I felt very great, it was the
Fixie of my dreams
I’ve been boasting ‘bout it of late
You looked at my old
I smiled and nodded ‘yes’
But you didn’t pedal fast enough
You were sluggish I confess
You coveted my orange one
But I said ‘No,
‘This one is too precious,
Take the other and go’
Go
Take this old one out my sight,
Go out into the night
I wish you all the best
And I wish we could be friends
But now I’ve found a better bike
I think this is the end

Be Free
03:54
|

Someday soon all will go
Back to the source of flow
Waiting without fear
For that emptiness to draw near
Cut conversations
Wilted grass
If you truly could be free
What sacrifice would that be
Someday all will go
Back to the source of flow
Waiting for the day
When that silence is here to stay
Silenced prophets
Empty tombs
If you truly could be free
What sacrifice would that be

Oh, the things that I’ve said
Oh, the things that I’ve said
They’re out my hands and down to sea
They’re out my hands and down to sea
Oh, the things that I’ve lost
Oh, the things that I’ve lost
Lost and gone away, gone away
Gone away, gone away
Wistfulness can be so unattractive
It stops you from being proactive
But the moon it shines on
Night as short as the day is long
I’m trying to find out what went wrong
Oh, the things that I’ve done
Oh, the things that I’ve done
They’re out my hands and down to sea
They’re out my hands and down to sea
So won’t you please sit with me

Ten Thousand Years

Oh no, he didn’t do
All the things his Mama told him to
Oh boy! He was so bad
But it was the best fun that he ever had
And for 10 000 years
His purgatory ended
All the angels he offended
Will laugh and sing, they will wear a gold ring
Blame not he, blame the serpent on the tree
He done it; we all took something from it
And for 10 000 years
Our sins are replaced, by a burgeoning human race
Where everything good’s committed
And no wrongdoing’s permitted
It will be like that party, where everyone got high
Heaven is on earth and we all know how to fly
And for 10 000 years
We’ve been waiting so long

Come My Bretheren

Come my brethren, come and sit down
Away from all the cities and away from the town
Come my brethren, sit by the wood
There is fire and there is music and we’ll all feel good
Do you know where you come from
Are you really that blessed?
Do you know where you come from
Have you been put to the test
Do your family know where you are
Are you really that blessed?
Do your family know where you are
Have you been put to the test
Come my brethren, come and sit down
Away from all the smog and dirt and away from the town
Come my brethren, sit by the wood
There is fire and there is music and we’ll all feel good
We are just a bunch of lost souls
Looking for a place to go
We are just a group of lost souls
Looking for a place to know
The cells keep on dividing
The blossom is on the tree
Our actions are what we take pride in
That’s the way it will always be
Come my brethren, come and sit down
Away from all the cities and away from the town
Come my brethren, sit by the wood
There is fire and there is music, and we’ll all feel good
