The General Man addressed the crowd, 
“Men of earth get your jabby things out! 
Don’t listen to these Sasquatch Songs, 
Send those Big Feet back where they belong 

They’re here to enslave our bodies & minds, 
Just don’t let them stultify you with kindness 
I say we will die before with them we go, 
At any cost protect thy ego!” 

“We’re only here to help,” said the Squatch, 
“Over your emotions please keep watch. 
They have their place but don’t give them the reigns, 
Or they will drive you quite insane 

The ego is certainly a lovely flower, 
But it has no self-existence or power 
If you pull the petals off one by one 
You’ll find that soon you’re left with none 

Above all don’t give into hate 
For that will surely seal your fate 
And hate you may be quite surprised 
To learn is just a good disguise 

“What’s that” said General Man, “I hear? 
A disguise for what?” Sasquatch said, “Fear” 


Yea, though we walk through 
The Valley of Incomprehension 
We will fear no Sasquatch 
And need we mention 

The Big Footed gurus in all their hues 
Are here to guide me & you 
We will ride their Bubbles to the other shore, 
but not for real, it’s a metaphor

Meta-Fear-Ical

With this final finale we bid fare-well but nought good buy two the Sasquatches, four they our all-ways with us in are heart of hart of hearths. 

If ewe sea the Sasquatch me-andering a-long the rhode, donut tale any-1, but tail hymn too hyde, fore their R those who want to moy-der Hr. 

Than, con-tinue on you're weigh, singi-ng this a-pock-o-liptical test-a-mint to every-1 hue meat:
lyrics
Perhaps you're waiting for the end of this here tale 
Happily ever after, all’s well that does end well 

We can't sit by when the temp is risin' 
Famine, wars, disease uncured 
We can’t just watch, we must live like Sasquatch 
Then the last scroll will be unfurled 

& I looked & I saw the Sasquatch on the mountain 
Fur the hue of straw, her voice bubbling like a fountain 

& down her leg rolled a giant egg 
& the egg cracked open then 
W/ a sound like lightning, very frightening 
& I knew it was the end 

The end of inaction & the end of apathy 
For the egg was crackin’, for you & also me 
Now the pen is in your hand, the pen is in my hand 
It’s time to take a stand and right the wrongs across this land 
Then once we write ‘em, cross ‘em out 
& with our voices loudly shout 

Subterranean green, you know what I mean 
You are me & I am you, one plus one don’t equal two 
The you I see in your eyes is the me you see in my eyes 
We are all each one another in disguises undercover 

If you can take a train 
It pollutes much less than a plane 

Love the greatest to the least 

If you’re able bicycle 
To cut down on fossil fuel 

Give to all those in need 

A well insulated house also 
Is the earth friendly way to go 

Friends may be enemies at first glance 

If you don’t eat so much meat 
It'll cut the methane that leads to heat 

But knowledge conquers ignorance 

Consume less, DIY 
Try to buy locall-eye 

Love the greatest to the least 

We can do it if we work together 
Narluga, Sasquatch, birds of a feather 

Every creature, plant or beast 

Subterranean green, you know what I mean 
You are me & I am you, one plus one don’t equal two 
The you I see in your eyes is the me you see in my eyes 
We are all each one another in disguises, undercover

Sasquatchalypse: A Genteel Apocalypse

8-30-18

Sasquatchalypse A Genteel Apocalypse

Day becomes night 
When the hate takes over 
Might doesn’t make right 
Keep watching over your shoulder 

Chorus: 
Guns don’t kill, people do 
But with a gun he’ll kill more than a few 
We need gun control, for our nation’s soul 
Don’t put that tool in the hands of a fool 

‘Cause when the bullets scream 
The people scream louder 
There’s no reason we need 
That much fire power 

Chorus 

Let’s tone down the rhetoric 
That makes the time bombs tick 
Love is stronger than fear 
Hold your loved ones near 
Let’s tone down the rhetoric 
That makes the time bombs tick 
Love is stronger than fear 
Hold your loved ones near

Bloody August Weekend

Lying back in a pick-up bed 
Watching the falling stars overhead 
Wondering why they don’t all fall 
And how the universe holds us all 
In place 

Yeah, I know about Albert Einstein 
And all that stuff concerning space-time 
I guess I’m not really asking how 
As much as why and the answer I’ve found 
Is grace 

Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 
Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 
Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 
Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 

The mountains at night heavy with shadow 
Trees like dervishes when the wind blows 
Are they just bending with the flowing wind? 
Or are they dancing with a joy within 
Called love? 

Or maybe the wind is dancing too 
If I dance, then how about you? 
I don’t want to be the only loon 
Dancing beneath with the shining moon 
Above 

Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 
Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 
Sing Hosanna from a fallen world 
Sing Hosanna from a fallen world

anyways...

leer-icks:

Bleeding meaning,
into the Unpretender,
me and my,
 little corner of surrender,
Betty Allwynn,
Betty Allwynn,

Someone said the truth would set me free,
but I don't live in that world,
don't get me wrong,
I still know they're speaking
 metaphorically,

but it's a darken me down,
you put my thoughts on a pet parade,
and you've been stealing my sound,
No fair, no fair,
with these chains that I'm bound,
No fair, no fair,
it's a darken me,
it's a darken me,
it's a darken me down,

it's a darkening...

speak honestly,
and no one will believe you,
they're all too busy,
trying to deceive you,

Betty Allwynn,
Betty Allwynn,

Enfeebler

Let's sing a song,
with all the notes that you forgot,
it will be so pretty,
right up until it's not,

(sable and sapphire)

you've turned back to your turn back,
and yanking womb,
wearing your blind,

spin your clocks backwards,
open to shutting your mind,

so give me a little space please,
not a message to send,
while i'm mourning the death, 
of my imaginary friend,

sable and sapphire,
all nevering,
he wrote you this song,

boiling eyes taper,
togethering,
right into wrong,

into wrong,
into sable and sapphire,

tape worms and Tuesdays,
and a never-will that never-was,

ape germs and loose lays,
and doe the dill,
we is what we does,

all fabled to the famish,
he'll be making his stand,
are you gonna cut off his head,
just because your flames aren't being fanned?

sable and sapphire

Theophobia

I stepped outside in early autumn 
It was cold enough to see my breath 
Felt a hole so deep couldn’t see the bottom 
Couldn’t appreciate its breadth 

Bitter memories and old regrets 
Seized upon me like a stealthy mugger 
Seems a part of me never forgets 
And overtime the terrain can just get rougher 

Chorus: 
Almost forgot the most important thing 
Almost forgot the one thing I know is true 
Almost forgot the reason I still sing 
Almost forgot that I’ll always have you 

Winter fell and the days just got more bleak 
The wind so cold I felt it in my heart 
I couldn’t even find the words to speak 
Or so many words didn’t know which word should start 

Chorus 

When spring came and the robin sang 
Something within me sprang 
Love like a new and growing chute 
The sky is blue but I am not 
For I know what I have got 
I know that I’ve got you to pull me through 

So hug me like the summer, don’t let go 
Let your sunshine penetrate my mind 
Let me feel your warmth from head to toe 
I’ll be your summer and you will be mine 

And I won’t forget the most important thing 
I won’t forget the one thing I know is true 
I won’t forget the reason that I sing 
Because I know I always have you

The Most Important Thing

Let’s drive out to the ocean 
So we can watch the motion 
Don’t forget the lotion 

Because I’ve got a notion 
That the great big bright yellow sun 
Will be shining by the ocean 

And we can watch the waves for a really long time 
This wave’s yours and that one’s mine 
Hey, where’d they go? They sank back down 
Other waves took their place, but they’ll come back around 

And each swelling wave that touches the sky 
Thinks he’s so great, but I don’t know why 
‘Cause when he comes back down eventually 
He’ll find that he was always just a part of the sea 

And actually isn’t that greater? But we’ll talk about that later 

For you & me & everything we see are the waves of Divinity

Driving To The Ocean

Based very loosely on a legend from the Tillamook people

Chorus: 
Love is great and everybody wants it 
When you don’t have it, it seems that others flaunt it 
Wear the wrong love and you’ll find that it can’t fit 
Love is great and everybody wants it 

Verse 1: 
One day a man saw a beautiful woman 
She was very nice and he felt he was a good man 
He tried to woo her and he tried to win her 
But he was such an amateur beginner 
[Chorus] 

Verse 2: 
Then one day on a walk in the woods 
He met a little man who he thought could do some good 
The little man it seems, was a Deetkatoo 
Whom everyone knows grant wishes, don’t you? 
[Chorus] 

Verse 3: 
So he told the Deetkatoo 
Do as I ask, for I found you 
Give all I ask under heaven above 
And the one thing that I wish for is love 
[Chorus] 

Bridge: 
"Oh, no, no, no, I can’t do that! 
Oh no, no, no!" was the Deetkatoo’s chant 

At this the man became quite enraged 
And he tried to trap the Deetkatoo in a cage 
Just then the beautiful woman happened by 
And was astonished by what met her eye. 
”Who is this little man you’re caging?” She said, 
”And why does he seem to me so engaging?” 

Verse 4: 
Yes, in a strange turn no one expected 
It was the Deetkatoo to whom she was attracted. 
She had truly fallen for the little Deetkatoo 
And now I ask you, wouldn’t you? 
[Chorus] 

Verse 5: 
So now I’m here singing you this song 
It may be right or it could possibly be wrong 
Hoping you’ll pay me for my song with a buck 
Can you spare some change for a man with bad luck? 
For I was the man in this sordid tale 
The Deetkatoo took my girl and my pride as well 
The least I can ask is a little recompense 
For singing this story at my own expense. 
[Chorus]

The Zigzag Mountain Band - Legend Of The Deetkatoo (Love Is Great)

600,000 homeless people 
Men & women, children, too 
Are sleeping on the streets this evening 
It could be me, it could be you 

Some’ve lost jobs and can’t get new ones 
Some were kicked out on the street 
All of them are sad and hungry 
And can’t afford a bite to eat 

Some are sick and some disabled 
Some are fighting private wars 
To them the dream is just a fable 
They see no key yet many doors 

600,000 homeless people 
Men & women, children, too 
Are crying out for help this evening 
It’s up to me, it’s up to you
