Speak Your Mind

The lunatics that are taking over the asylum
Are reminded that they have a duty of care
To the people that put them there
The oppressive regimes and all the kings and all the queens
And all of their machines that build the kingdoms and castles
And all those people all those shackles
It’s alright to speak your mind when you find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
It’s alright to speak your mind I speak mine when I find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
The patron saints of latter day make miracles on Saturdays
And statues of them I purvey on my TV
Streamed into my home from satellites that are unknown
I put an app upon my phone should I download should I update?
It’s alright to speak your mind when you find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
It’s alright to speak your mind I speak mine when I find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
Silhouetted on the wall of plaster board there was a small
But perfect little copy of butterfly that had flown in
The March hare jumped over the dawn it was unseasonably warm
The summer of discontent was formed they didn’t heed but they were warned
It’s alright to speak your mind when you find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
It’s alright to speak your mind I speak mine when I find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
It’s alright to speak your mind when you find it
It’s alright to speak your mind
It’s alright to speak your mind I speak mine when I find it
It’s alright to speak your mind

Go Go Boy

Stuck in in a hole
I've been left on my own
All alone I am low left alone on my own now
Sucking the life out lemon and spice
It's shame how it's gone it's a shame it is over
But it doesn't explain why you're losing your patience every time I come near
Is everything alright or is there something I should fear
You should go____ go go boy
You should go____ go go boy
The seconds tick by there's is no love in you're eye's anymore just a door thank you for not disturbing
There's a crack in your smile that just stands out a mile
And I know what I saw because I've been observing
And speaking as someone with more than average number of teeth in his head for a boy
The only thing that I could say is maybe you should go go boy
You should go____ go go boy
You should go____ go go boy
You should go____ go go boy
You should go____ go go boy

God's Wardrobe

I know a man, who knows a man, who has a plan, he knows a man who has the whole world in his hands
He has to pray about 50 times a day just to keep his demons far enough way
The lights go out and the candles burned there is absolutely nothing that you have learned about humanity
We are now and we have always been just skin and bone and electricity.....
Deus is Deus says Deus knows to keep you hair shirts with your dogma in God's wardrobe
Pass the plate, pass your time and pass your judgement, collect your money and your souls to pay your spiritual rent, spiritual rent, spiritual rent, spiritual rent, spiritual rent
I own my soul, I own my soul, I own my soul, I have my soul, my soul is not for sale
Stand tall and stand proud the Atheist surrounded by religion that has been put there as a test
There is no hate here for you to find just an unflinching faith in all of human kind
But when the lights goes out and the bubbles burst all that's left behind is an incredible thirst for your deity
We are now and we've always been just skin and bone and electricity.....
