1.God Bless This Mess
Daddy's in the hallway hanging pictures on the wall
Mama's in the kitchen making casseroles for all
My brother came home yesterday
From somewhere far away
He doesn't look like I remember
He just stares off into space
He must have seen some ugly things
He cannot seem to say
Oh God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
Got a job in town selling insurance on the phone
With Robert and Teresa and two con men from back home
But everyone I call up doesn't have the time to chat
Everybody is so busy doing this and doing that
Something has gone missing and it makes me kind of sad
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
I heard about the day that two skyscrapers came down
Firemen and policemen people came from all around
The smoke covered the city and the body count did rise
The president spoke words of comfort with teardrops in his eyes
Then, he led us as a nation into a war all based on lies
Oh God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
God bless this mess
2.Shine Over Babylon
I walked the heat of seven hills
Endless talk of losing wills
Great highways in a constant melt
Men and women and children all have overbuilt
Buying bread and paying for none
Creatures of a waning sun
Teacher's hands are overrun
Clowns and gypsies have all but gone
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
Freedoms etched on Sacred pillars
Hollow stones of mindless filler
Can lead to madman oil drillers
Won't be long before we all are killers
Little boy lost way up the mountains
Cities drowning under boiling fountains
I dreamed of chilly, sunlit days
I was trembling in a golden haze
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
We celebrate the golden cow
Praise the bloated bank account
If there's a god where is he now
The precipice is slipping further out
Sanskrit message from the mounts
Leave your possessions, hope abounds
There's nothing here for you to cry about
We're all just followers from here on out
I take the stage, I walk the planks
I sing these songs with little thanks
I wait for shouts from crazy cranks
I stand amidst the brown shirt ranks
I found my way to Alexandria
Where gurus bubble up on Ganges
Scavengers, they run up and hand ya
All the junk that should have damned ya
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
If everything in life was free
You'd float in your own reverie
The things that you can't seem to see
Seal the gap between you and me
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
You make me wanna
Shine over Babylon
3.Love Is Free
One Two
One two three
She got a shack
Floating down the Pontchartrain
With the water rolling in
You gotta swim
before the levees start to crack
Another day
Another dollar down the drain
You go to town
No one's around
Cause if you drown
there ain't no hope for coming back
It ain't no big thing if you lose your faith
They kinda like to keep you in your place
You never know what might be coming your way
Oh everybody
Devil take your money
Money's got no hold on me
Oh oh everybody's making love
cause love is free
You go to church
and pray to God for no more rain
A Cadillac
A paper sack
well hey there Jack
you want some bourbon for the pain
Hey tambourine
Ain't no rhythm on the street
With the voodoo
What do you do
when the radio just plays on anyway
Those crazy fingers in your jelly jar
They'll jack your money
while you sleep in you car
They got the karma
they ain't getting too far
Oh everybody
Devil take your money
My money's got no hold on me
Oh oh everybody's making love
cause love is free
Everybody come together
Everybody come together
Everybody come together
Everybody come together
Yeah everybody
Devil take your money
Money got no hold on me
Oh oh everybody's making love
cause love is free
Oh everybody
Devil take your money
Money got no hold of me
oh oh everybody's making love
cause love is free
Love is free
Love is free
4.Peace Be Upon Us
Walking down the street of dreams
Eating from the fruits of life
Tripping out on the smallest things
Trying to reach the light, trying to reach the light
Pick the key up off the floor
Put the key into the lock
Turn the lock, open up the door
Look at all you've got, look at all you've got
All the sinners and saints
All you creatures of faith
Don't need to be afraid
If you know what I mean
Let me hear you say
Peace be upon us
Peace be upon us
Be upon us all
Peace be upon us
Peace be upon us
Be upon us all
If we speak in tongues of love
But we kill in the name of God
How can we profess to own his name
And still be so lost and still be so lost
The world will turn even when we're gone
The earth will host many souls to come
Who will write the history, tales of
Wisemen, villains and innocent ones
All you shepherds and sheep
When you wake from your sleep
It will be a new day
If you know what I mean
Let me hear you say
Peace be upon us
Peace be upon us
Be upon us all
Peace be upon us
Peace be upon us
Be upon us all
As-salaamu alykum Wa-alaykum assalaam
As-salaamu alykum Wa-alaykum assalaam
(The meek shall inherit the earth)
Peace be upon us
Peace be upon us
Be upon us all
As-salaamu alykum
Wa-alaykum assalaam
Assalaam alykum
Wa-alaykum assalaam
Peace be upon us
Peace be upon us
Be upon us all
5.Gasoline
Way back in the year of 2017
The sun was growing hotter
And oil was way beyond its peak
When crazy Hector Johnson broke into a refinery
And the black gold started flowing
Just like Boston tea
It was the summer of the riots
And London suffered sweltering heat
And the gangs of Mini Coopers
Took the battle to the streets
But when the creed was handed down
For no more trucks and no more cars
They threw cans of petrol through the windows
At Scotland Yard
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
When the Mounties stormed the palace
Of the Saudi family
They held them up for ransom
Without disturbing their high tea
But their getaway was shaky
They stalled in the Riyadh streets
'Cause you can't make it very far when your tank is on empty
Final can of gasoline was loaded on a truck
And driven through the streets of Agra to the palace aqueduct
You see, all the majesty of worship that once adorned these
fatal halls
Was the target for the angry
As they blew up the Taj Mahal
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
will be free, will be free
Gary ran a market way down in Tennessee
Where all the farmers got together and talked about this great
country
But when the government turned its back on the farming man, what
I hear
They dragged the pumps out of the ground
With a big vintage John Deere
I've got soldiers on my payroll
Standing guard on my front drive
Snipers on the roof poised at those
Who didn't want me alive
'Cause they audited my taxes
My family under threat
'Cause I've got a message and a megaphone
And I'll scream it to the death
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
Gasoline
Will be free, will be free
You got the farms in Argentina
Making fuel from sugar cane
You got the bastards in Washington
Afraid of popping that greed vein
'Cause the money's in the pipeline
And the pipeline's running dry
And we'll be the last to recognize
Where there's shit there's always flie
6.Out of Our Heads
If you feel you wanna fight me
There's a chain around your mind
When something is holding you tightly
What is real is so hard to find
Losing babies to genocide
Oh where's the meaning in that plight
Can't you see that we've really bought into
Every word they proclaimed and every lie, oh
If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
Someone's feeling on your anger
Someone's been whispering in your ear
You've seen his face before
You've been played before
These aren't the words you need to hear
Through the dawn of darkness blindly
You have blood upon your hands
All the world will treat you kindly
But only the heart can understand, oh understand
If we could only get out of our heads, out of our heads
And into our hearts
Children of Abraham lay down your fears, swallow your tears
and look to your heart
Every man is his own prophet
Oh every prophet just a man
I say all the women stand up, say yes to themselves
Teach your children best you can
Let every man bow to the best in himself
We're not killing any more
We're the wisest ones, everybody listen
'Cause you can't fight this feeling any more, oh anymore
7.Detours
Mother, can you hold me together
It's so dark and I'm losing my way
I took all of these detours to find love
But when I did, it just faded away
Now what do I do
With the sweet love of mine
Do I give it away and Hope someday I'll find
Someone half as awake
As the moon and the stars
Mother, teach me to love
With a paper-thin heart
Mother, your words are so healing
You speak of love and of light and of peace
But I've made it my course to avoid you
Just to hide from these feelings of grief
Now what do I do
With the sweet love of mine
Do I give it away and Hope someday I'll find
Someone half as awake
As the moon and the stars
Mother, teach me to love
With a paper-thin heart
Now what do I do
With the sweet love of mine
Do I give it away and Hope someday I'll find
Someone half as awake
As the moon and the stars
Mother, teach me to love
With a paper-thin heart
Mother, I know you are with me
You were there when I took my first breath
I can't stop looking back for the answers
I just keep coming up with regret
There are some things I just can't forget
8.Now That You're Gone
Well I can see heaven
See it over the plain
If I start running now
I think I can make it
And never look back again
Your face is all around me
Your keys are in my hand
And everywhere I go
I'll try to remember
Exactly who I am
'Cause now that you're gone
I can breathe
Now that you're gone
I am free
Free to make a mess of everything
'Cause nothing belongs to me
'Cause now that you're gone
I can breathe
We made a bed of roses
But I got pricked by the thorns
And on a long cold night
I still think I'm bleeding
But I wake up untorn
Well I am a missing person
I've lost it all but my name
And, I'm afraid some long lonely road
Will lead me back to you again
Cause now that you're gone
I can breathe
Now that you're gone
I am free
Free to make a mess of everything
'Cause nothing belongs to me
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
'Cause now that you're gone
I can breathe
Now that you're gone
I am free
Free to make a mess of everything
'Cause nobody's watching me
Now that you're gone
I am free
Now that you're gone
I can breathe
Now that you're gone
I am free
Now that you're gone
I can breathe
9.Drunk With The Thought Of You
There's something I need to show you
My head in my hands
'Cause I don't understand
When I don't even know you
How you've melted my heart in two
I wake up in the morning
Follow you and then hide
Just to watch you walk by
Comes on me with no warning
I think about you and I get high
Do I show you I even exist
Do I tell you it's you that I've missed
Well if love is a cocktail of all that you do
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you
I can't stand all this freedom
I've been here before
And it's such a big bore
You're all I ever needed
If only you'd walk through my door
Do I show you I even exist
Do I tell you it's you that I've missed
Well if love is a cocktail of all that you do
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you
I could wait my whole life for this moment to come
With a long list of beautiful chances I've blown
Well, this time I'll toast to your name 'til I'm blue
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you
I get drunk with the thought of you
10.Diamond Ring
We made love all day
In our little hide away
But I blew up our love nest
By making one little request
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Don't mean anything
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Should not mean a thing
You could say I do
Hide your negative reviews
You love me you say
But you can't even face the day
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Don't mean anything
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Should not change
Some say love is blind
But I say love is only in the mind
Diamonds may be sweet
But to me they just bring on cold feet
Someday you'll be like me
With someone who just wants to be free
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Don't mean anything
Diamond ring
Diamond ring
Should not mean a thing
11.Motivation
Little white girl
In a shiny black car
Hanging out with her friends
And doing black tar
Daddy pays for the wedding
With a fist full of dollars
Cost as much
As the state of Guatemala
Oh why
Even try
Well I got a big car
And a flat screen TV
All my loser friends
And my boyfriend's family
Bring bags of food
And watch reality freakshows
Everybody's faking it
But nobody thinks so
Oh why
Even try
Got no grease on my hands
Got no serious plans
Whole world's waiting for me
'Cause all I gotta do is get it for free
Got no reason to bitch
Ain't no parties I've missed
Got to have it that way
'Cause baby I gotMOTIVATION
Skinny young dude
In a hundred dollar tee shirt
In King James kicks
And a brand new manicure
Hotties doing pilates
With the snotties and the pleasers
Sneaking in the back door
At Coconut Teasers
Why
Even try
Well, I dropped out of school
When I was seventeen
'Cause I didn't have time
To study my magazines
'Cause there's a lot to learn
From the privileged few
Like how to build a brand
Wearing high heeled shoes
Oh why
Even try
Got no grease on my hands
Got no serious plans
Whole world's waiting for me
'Cause all I gotta do is get it for free
Got no reason to bitch
Ain't no parties I've missed
Got to have it that way
'Cause baby I gotMOTIVATION
I'm gonna own this tiwn
I'm gonna own this town

Yeah, it's all mine
Oh why

'Cause all I gotta do is get it for free
Got no reason to bitch
Ain't no parties I've missed
Got to have it that way
'Cause baby I got
MOTIVATION
Got no grease on my hands
Got no serious plans
whole world's waiting for me
'Cause all I gotta do is get it for free
12.Make It Go Away (Radiation Song)
I stare into
Some great abyss
And calculate
The things I'd miss
If I could only Make some sense of this
And Madam Butterfly Resounds
Over the mothership
Her lights flashing around
I float above her and I wonder how
To make it go away
Make it go away
I crawl into my circumstance
Lay on the table
Begging for another chance
But I was a good girl
I can't understand how to
Make it go away
Make it go away
Sometimes I wonder
Which hurts the worse
The thougt of dying
Or reliving every hurt
Was love the illness
And disease the cure
Make it go away
Make it go away
13.Love Is All There Is
Everyone is talking about me
How my heart is broken
But they don't see
When you're lonely inside
The world looks so carefree
When you're lonely inside
You just can't see
Does anybody want you
Does anybody need you
The question is
Does anybody want you
Does anybody need you
The question is
All I really know for certain, babe
Is that Love Is All There Is
Every now and then
There comes a time
Someone comes along
to change your mind
You believe it's unwise
To give in to careless dreams
You believe it's a prize
You'll never win
You believe it's unwise
To give in to careless dreams
If you don't see that is why
You will never know
14.Lullaby For Wyatt
The world could fall apart
But you're my heart my dear
I will sing this song
'til we are gone my dear
How do I keep you from losing your way
Hope you'll go out and you'll come back someday
But love is letting go
And this I'll know
Is you were mine
For a time
I could shape your mind
But why waste time my dear
There's so much more to know
Than I can show you dear
How do I keep you from losing your way
Hope you'll go out and you'll come back someday
But love is letting go
And this I'll know
Is you were mine
For a time
I have held you close
And breathed your name my dear
I was with you then
And will remain my dear
How do I keep you from losing your way
Hope you will find love like I did someday
But love is letting go
And this I'll know
Is you were mine
For a time
