Shock the Algorithm

Here’s The Circle video:

This song is about being stuck in an endless loop of working life, the realisation of never ending monotony, to finally working out how to handle it and the hope of escaping it.

Life, drives you to the ground
Kicks you when you’re down
Wants to wear your crown

Love, comes as no surprise
Right before your eyes
With truth instead of lies

Stop explaining
Days are waning
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly

We have travelled through this life 
Through the tears and strife
To the other side

Dreams, elude us when we sleep
And rivers run so deep
The secrets they will keep

Lives are taken
Plans, forsaken
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly..

It may be we’ll never understand
Building castles in the sea and sand…

Love, comes as a surprise
Right between the eyes

For the Love of Life

Ran to the mountain top but still not high or far enough away 
I still could hear them call my name 
Chocking on soda pop it fizzled to my tired and worried brain 
For a moment I forgot their pain 
Love, Used to hold each other when the day was done
Love, Now we duck and cover cause we can’t outrun 
My girl is beautiful sharp mind hot body personality 
She brings to life my wildest dreams 
My mind is hijacked thinking real is fake 
now true and fantasy is on a collision course full steam 
Love, Acting like a stranger but I know you well
Love, Waving to each other from across the cell 
deja vu  I lose my mind just thinking bout you
But then it’s 
Holy smokes when you come around here 
Oh yeah 
Believe in me like I believe in you 
She has a softer side when showcased on the full sized movie screen
But when the lights go down oh no
From far away the hurricane looks like a pillow in the blue 
The silver lining hides the truth 
Love, Used to hold each other when the day was done
Love, Now we duck and cover cause we can’t outrun 
Love, Acting like a stranger but I know you well
Love, waving to each other from across the cell
I used to get real scared just thinking bout it WWIII 
now psychopathic thugs have got nothing on me
But still it’s 
Holy smokes when you come around here

come around here

lyrics:
Like we used to
---------------
We don't play in gigs like we used to
We don't play in the streets like we used to
We don't hang out in squares like we used to
and we don't drink ice cold beers like we used to

and now we grew up, became strangers we fell on trap 
and the days are not the same, like we used to...used to

We don't jam at all, like we used to
we don't grill outside the yard, like we used to
we don't party as friends like we used to
we don't say hello like we used to....used to

and now egos stood up, became cold and all that crap
and the years are not the same, like we used to...used to!

Rock and Roll Kills

Like We Used To

This song is inspired by George Orwell's book Coming up for Air. Suppose I ought to go and read it.

lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

It Won't Take Forever

Hey, my friend
Have a thing to say
To tell you
Been around and learning you

I don't think you know how much you do
Evening comes, you promise light anew

Hey, my friend
Looking out for me
My brother
Surely true, I've needed you

I don't think you know how much you do
Evening comes, you promise light anew

I don't think you know how much you do
Evening comes, you promise light anew

Evening comes, you promise light anew

Light Anew

A guy who really loves his car. Really, really loves his car!
Is there any illegal car sideshows shutting down your home town streets, or is that just a California thing?
From the album "Röckers" (2024)
Lyrics:
Those Yokohama's they burn 
And then they spark
At midnight
A parking lot
Abandoned office park
Oh, those kids are crazy
It's a little shady
Those fumes make me hazy
I like to show off my baby

(Oh yeah) My baby, she is a Frankenstein
Made up of modified parts
She is a modified Honda Civic
With 19-inch alloy rims
Air intake valve
Top class suspension
I like to do things differently
That's why I painted an evil clown on the hood
That's the way people know I'm misunderstood
If they think you're misunderstood, they're less likely  to mess with you
I like to show of my baby
I like to show off my girl
(Insert slow-motion shots of cars doing donuts)
My sideshow funny car

Going down the highway
We don't pay attention to the white lines
It's my total gestalt
It makes me the prophet of the asphalt
Oh, I love my girl
My sideshow funny car
Watch her go...........

Sanctuary

Left here brokenhearted
Beneath the falling rain
Can someone save me?

Across the great divide
The chasm opens wide
All seems lost

Thrown against the wall
Who will break my fall
I’m on my knees

I seek sanctuary
Shelter from the storm
Our eternal 
Home

Now I stand alone
Holding up my hands
The sky is falling

I seek sanctuary
Shelter from the storm
Our eternal 
Home 

Sanctuary!
Sanctuary!
Your kingdom’s not
Of this world

Sanctuary!
Sanctuary!
Through grace death 
holds no mastery

I seek sanctuary
Shelter from the storm
Our eternal 
Home

The Puppet Master

The father of lies
Is no one’s friend
But the media tells you
he’s not so bad

Looks like an angel
If it suits his design
Looks good on paper?
Sign the dotted line

[chorus]
Puppet master
Pulls the strings
Leads you on
Into the flames
Lake of fire
His domain

New world order
Deception grows
Follow the world
And you sell your soul

Ascend upside down
Headfirst into the ground
Death and darkness
Is all to be found!

Don’t follow the crowd
Snake charmers and liars
False prophets abound
Flames rising higher

Pied pipers mislead
People to the void
The liars and thieves
They’ve made their choice

Without Jesus as lord,
Thrown into the fire
Bound in evil accord,
Fall into the pyre

Where the worm does not die
An unquenchable fire
great chasm divides
Kingdom from hellfire

The Puppet Master (Music by Keiton)

I Wanna Be A Monkey

iza lica(demo)

Lyrics:

You wanted to try something new
Hackepeter, a mett sandwich too
Minced up raw pork on some bread
Will have you sick and dying in bed

Delectable dish of German cuisine
Shitting your guts out on the latrine
Host is eaten alive by worms
Lymphatic system compromised by germs

Trichinella Spiralis
Living in my intestines
Viviparous nematodes
Regurgitative episodes

Consuming all my sustenance
Killing me is the consequence
Organic viral parasite
Is gonna end my life tonight

Death by invasive tapeworms
Inside your gut the larva squirms
Eating you alive inside
You never thought this is how you’d die

Hunching over, can’t take the pain
Constantly your bowels drain
Time and time again you puke
If you survive, it’ll be a fluke

Invasion of the intestinal wall
So dangerous, but yet so small
Anaerobic organism
Destructive to my metabolism

Larva forming in nursing cell
Microbiological hell
Infection spreading inside of me
To my heart and my kidneys

Infiltrating the tissue cells
Damaging endothelial
Reaching a state of hypoxemia
Building of fluids causing edema

Consuming products of uncooked swine
Your life has reached the end of the line
Gasping for air, you can hardly breathe
Suffering traumatically

Safe As Raw Pork

The song is about joining your first band at fifty and thinking maybe you should have done this earlier. Photo was taken at our first recording session, in the loft!

Days Of Silence

Dingo Ate My Baby

She should have left that damn bird alone

Mama Saw A Bird

I Am

I Am Earth, Wind, Water, Fire

This was unavoidable for me.  Politics aside, I think we can all agree that the mounting innocent victims of global conflict are a tragedy beyond measure.  These casualties should not be ignored as we sit in the comforts of our cushy little lives.

So far away 
It rumbles Iike a thundercloud
Eyes to the sky
Illuminated all around

Awaiting a world
to look and see
I cannot believe
what’s goin down
And what will be
I cannot conceive

The smoke in your eyes
Does not mask the tragedy…
don’t mind the flies
Images in front of me…

Temperatures rising
In the towns 
And over the fields
So many dying
And for what
I do not believe….

Moonlight and shadows
Paint the town
In shades so disarming..
the look in their eyes…
never to see the next morning 

Calling your name
In the pile of rubble under me…
I don’t here a sound
The silence is so deafening…

Awaiting a world
to look and see
I cannot believe
what’s goin down
And what will be
I cannot conceive

Missiles are raining
From the sky
It’s never ending…
mothers are wailing
like a choir
the tears they are sending

Six thousand miles 
Isn’t really far away…

Awaiting A World
