COWBELL BLUES — Think Before You Eat (By Larry Sieniuc)

We live in the plastic age—one of genetically modified foods, mad cow, avian flu, and hormone enhanced farmed fish.  Let's rethink our approach to ensure that whatever our individual choices it is from a more environmentally sustainable and humane point of view.

That you bought at the Kmart
Last Saturday afternoon

Guess where I saw Lisa last Saturday Afternoon 
She was at the Kmart buying her plastic shoes
She didn’t want those cowbell blues
She didn’t want to jump over the

LOWER THAN GRAVITY (By Larry Sieniuc)

The roar of an engine continually in my ear
Got me driving the highway and shifting the gears
Swishing by the rustle of the leaves in the wind
Your road of salvation is one that is sinned

MY VISION IS RESTRICTED I CAN NOT SEE
CAN'T GET ANY LOWER THAN GRAVITY
CAN'T GET ANY LOWER THAN GRAVITY

The wheels of motion pave the sands of time
Down the middle of the garden you painted a white line
You gotta go faster so you take out the curves
But sometimes this pace of living is hard on the nerves

CHORUS

Salt on cement with metal to rust
Disintegration factor into dust

CHORUS

Age of technology
Projectors of pollution
Windshield wiper soluble solution
Dig a hole and fill the pit
Roll on a steam roller all over it

My vision is restricted I can not see
Can’t get any lower than gravity
Can’t get any lower than gravity
Can’t get any lower than gravity
Can’t get any lower than gravity
Can’t get any lower than gravity

It soaks you to the bone
You got a shredded eaves-trough
Doesn’t matter if you stay home
Cause you just can’t shake it off
The wings of your plane

ACID RAIN
ACID RAIN
RUNNING DOWN YOUR DRAIN
SPARKLING CHAMPAGNE
ACID RAIN
ACID RAIN

It turns blue litmus paper red
You got sulphur dioxide in your hair
Rubber boots and an umbrella
At the top of the stairs
Chemicals in your brain

CHORUS

It melts down your living room
You’ve got wall to wall shag
PH depression
And a dirty dish rag
An asphalted lane

VW  BUS(Larry Sieniuc)

MY BABY LEFT ME THIS MORNING
SHE DRIVES A VW BUS
THE SKY WAS DEEP PURPLE 
AND THE STARS TURNED TO DUST

She said she was going
Cause I was no good
I burn too much coal
and I chop too much wood

MY BABY LEFT ME THIS MORNING
SHE DRIVES A VW BUS
THE SKY WAS DEEP PURPLE 
AND THE STARS TURNED TO DUST

I fell down on the sidewalk
and I began to cry
Millions of bumble bees
are dropping from the sky
Black and yellow bumble bees
are dropping dead like flies
GMO bumble bees,
chocolate deep fried

MY BABY LEFT ME THIS MORNING
SHE DRIVES A VW BUS
THE SKY WAS DEEP PURPLE 
AND THE STARS TURNED TO DUST

I got down on my knees
and I prayed to Jesus Christ
She put my drink in the sun
and she melted my ice

Thick action, everybody’s smiling
Puffing cigarettes, petting family pets
On the patio
Sun tanning, barbecuing
Government inspected
Computer tested
Tender baby beef

Clear visions, cloudless skies
Hot summer days, ultra violet rays
In the afternoon
Soft sunset, fluffy clouds
Red velvet skys, banana cream pies
Feathers flutter fly
