We need to in this country begin again to raise civil discourse to another level. I mean, we shout and scream and yell and get very little accomplished, but you can disagree very much with the next guy and still be friends and acquaintances.

I Scream

Vs.1 I shout when I'm angry,
I yell when I'm mad.
It doesn't really matter what kind of day I had.
[Because I have no one to save me! ]
(chorus)
I scream and shout,
Raise my voice and shout out loud,
I scream day and night,
Everyone's sayin' it's alright, but
I don't know 'bout that.
Man, I scream!
Vs.2 They think I am crazy,
They think I am bad.
No one really knows about the troubles I have had.
[Because I have no one to save me! ]
(chorus)
(long solo)
Vs.3 I walk like I'm awesome,
I walk like I'm proud.
Everyone knows who I am and that I'm really loud.
[And now, my song is almost done! ]
(chorus) x 2
Yeahhhhhh
I SCREAM!

Scream And Shout

Yeah
All right
Oh yeah
Oh, come on boys
Your lights sheen nothing like sparkles
You look like you're toast
Put you hands up in the air
Treat me like a host
I wonder if you're ready
But I can't hear you breathe
My nerves are not quite steady
But you will only see that
I want more
(I want more)
So give it all
(Give it all)
Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Take me higher
Higher
Higher
Scream and shout
Coats are smaller in this asylum
I can see what's on your minds
Looking for some truth
Is what you really want to find
Cause we are pure escapists
Yes times are getting tough
We just want to rock and roll
We can't get enough
I want more
(I want more)
So give it all
(Give it all)
Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Take me higher
Higher
Higher
Scream and shout
Hahahahahaha!
You see that from the front row
We are shapes of things to come
You're handcuffed to your seat
And there is no place left to run
Your brains are in our power
We ponder as we feed
A healthy dose of metal
And that's all you'll ever need
I want more
(I want more)
So give it all
(Give it all)
Shout to the car
(Shout to the car)
I want it all, yeah
Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Scream
Scream and shout
Lose your minds
Let it out
Out
Out!

We, the most powerful democracy in the world, have developed a strong norm against talking about politics. It's fine to talk about politics with people you agree with. But it is rude to argue about politics with people you disagree with. Political discourse becomes isolated, and isolated discourse becomes more extreme. We say what our friends want to hear, and hear very little beyond what our friends say.

The Dance! ! ! !

THE DANCE ! ! ! ! ! 1

IF IT CAN ONLY BE EXPRESSED, FOR THIS THERE ARE NO WORDS!
BUT HOW THEY LOVED TO SKIP AND DANCE,
AS ALWAYS, IT WAS FUN TO TAKE A CHANCE!
TO SKIP AND DANCE, SO EXCITING AND DANEROUS IT IS TO TAKE THE CHANCE!
TO LET THE LADLE, TEAPOT, AND BEAUTIFUL SABLE SKIP HAND AND HAND,
ROUND AND ROUND ON THE FORBIDDEN TABLE!
BUT THE DANCE WOULD NOT BE COMPLETE, THE SPELL WOULD NOT BE COMPLETE.
IF THEY COULD NOT GET THE DRAGON TO DANCE WITH THEM.
TO DO THIS, THERE NEED BE VERY, VERY SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCE,
TO GET THE DRAGON TO DANCE,
TO ONCE AGAIN DANCE AND RAISE IT’S FIREY LANCE!
BUT THEN SUDDENLY THE “SPOONS AND FORKS”WOULD SHOUT OUT,
YOUS’ MUST STOP, YOUS’ MUSTIN’T-DANCE ALL ABOUT,
YOUS’ MUSTIN’T SHOUT AND SING ABOUT,
AGAIN AND AGAIN THE “SPOONS AND FORKS”WOULD YELL AND YELL,
IF YOURS CONTINUE IN THIS MANNOR,
YOU’LL ALL GO TO HELL, YOU’LL ALL GO YO HELL!
AND THE DANCERS YELLED BACK,
WE WILL STOP NOT, STOP NOT,
FOR WE ARE THE WICKER AND THIS IS OUR DANCE,
FOR WE WERE GIVIEN ANOTHER CHANCE!
OUR MASTER WILL ONCE AGAIN RAISE THE DRAGON AND IT’S FIREY LANCE,
ONLY HE KNOWS THE WAY OF WICKER AND THE DANCE!
HE CATERS TO DISASTER,
FOR HE IS OUR MASTER!
THE DOOR BUSTS OPEN,
AND THE DRAGON MAKES IT’S ADVANCE,
AND HE SHOUTS AND SHOUTS,
GIVE ME, GIVE ME MY LANCE,
NOW LET US BEGIN, LET US BEGIN AGAIN THE SPELL AND THE DANCE,
FOR THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Earl.....

now you know what a silent scream is all about,
it is when your letters lie there naked and yell without a sound
and people
close friends and those that know you before you begin saying
that scream
say, yes we knew it
and we are comfortable with it
with you
there is nothing to hide everything
is as obvious as a cloud
the usual sun at midday
the full moon
one evening when you are so silent
as the thousand stars scattering themselves
in that big, black, empty
umbrella space

you think people will believe you
someone laughed, this is not the truth, this is a joke
this is nothing but another gimmick from
Earl,
the ears are plugged, but the eyes still see
it is your touch somehow
that must reveal it in another personal thigh
the fingers that glide and hold
the inner secret
it is me, you say
but by then nobody is interested anymore
and so i say, give yourself a break
have a hell of a good time out there
no one minds
no one is interested about you
and your
fake silent scream
we met that once but we refuse to hear

Political Discourse

Political discourse
Good and pious for the
Country you have
If it is positive
And you are not here
To Pollute this anyway
Political discourse
Is not mud-slinging
And muck-raking exercise
Political discourse
Again not
Inflated rhetoric.

Fighting

I'm crying, but I no longer know
Why
Why you scream
Why you yell
Wht he says go to hell
Why I'm laughing
It's not funny
It's not funny
I don't know why
Why you swear
Why you cry
Why he walks out the door
He'll be back
He always does
I'm crying, but I don't know
Why
Why you scream
Why you yell
Why he says go to hell

The Civil War

What in the world is a Civil War?
There's nothing civil about it.
Is it just a metaphor?
You say one thing and mean another.
You take up sides and kill your brother.
And that my friends
is civil?

See Me In The Mirror

Do you see me standing here,
locked up inside your mirror?
I watch you every day,
standing here inside your mirror.
Why can’t you look over here
at your mirror and see me floating,
waiting to be heard.
I talk to you for hours but
you never hear.
Your mirror keeps me bound
here, unable to touch, stuck in here.
I see you look around nervously,
as if you can sense my presence in here.
I shout, I stomp, I scream and yell.
You turn, quickly, to your mirror.
Your eyes widen with fear.
No! , I yell as you turn away.
Please don’t leave me alone in here.
It’s cold and lonely, please speak to me.
Your shoulders stiffen and
then relax outside your mirror.
Finally, you look at me and speak.
You ask me why I’m here and stay.
I tell you I don’t know.
I’m just stuck standing in your mirror.
You poor thing, you say, feeling sorry for me.
It’s alright, I say, you’ve kept me company all day.
You come closer and stand nearer to your mirror.
You raise your hand to the glass, and I raise mine.
A vibrant burst of beautiful light emanates from your mirror.
Real. I feel your hand touch mine.
I feel the roughness and the smoothness.
Free at last, I am finally real, to come and go as I feel.
To touch and be touched, and to give and take.
I kiss your cheeks and your mouth.
Thank you, I tell your shocked face.
Your rough hands cup my shocked face.
You return my hesitant kisses with your assured ones.
You are mine, girl in the mirror, you tell me.
I am yours, boy outside the mirror, I tell you.
Finally we are together.

Cut It Out

You're using me.
Cut it out.
You're hurting me.
What's this about?

What did I do
To make me be put through
Everything that hurts me?
Cut it out.

I thought you were my friend
Remember? till the end?
Or did you just pretend?
Please. Cut it out.

I'll Scream
I'll shout
Just please cut it out
Stop messing with my head.

With my heart
sinking like lead
I cry myself to bed
In nightmares i want
to forget about
I just scream
I'll just shout.

Just please...

Cut it out!

Shout It Out Loud

Well, the nights begun and you want some fun
Do you think youre gonna find it (think youre gonna find it)
You got to treat yourself like number one
Do you need to be reminded (need to be reminded)
It doesnt matter what you do or say
Just forget the things that youve been told
We cant do it any other way
Everybodys got to rock and roll, whoo, oh, oh
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
If you dont feel good, theres a way you could
Dont sit there broken hearted (sit there broken hearted)
Call all your friends in the neighborhood
And get the party started (get the party started)
Dont let em tell you that theres too much noise
Theyre too old to really understand
Youll still get rowdy with the girls and boys
cause its time for you to take a stand, yeah, yeah
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Youve got to have a party
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Turn it up louder
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Everybody shout it now
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Oh yeah
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Hear it gettin louder
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
And everybody shout it now
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud

Son Of Detroit

I like to play Hank Williams Jr records
Just as loud as they will rock
I'm into Lynrd Skynrd, Run DMC
And DJ Scott la'rock
I like Willie, Waylon, George and Merle and alot of ZZ Top
I like country, soul, rock-n-roll
And I love me some hip hop
I'm a redneck rock-n-roll son of Detroit
I don't like no new wave
Techno bands around
I'm a drink a couple dozen beers
Go out and jam some gears
I'm a long haired rock-n-roll
Son of Detroit
I got bourget and west coast chopper
That sure makes them bitches stare
Got a dead flamingo wrapped around this cowboy hat I wear
I like 2 cuss, yell, scream. fight
And raise all kinds of hell
And if you ride to live like I live to ride
Then let me hear that rebel yell
I like my whiskey straight up daiquiris
Make me ill
And if someone touches my beaver skins
I get mad enough to kill
I got a rifle rack in my pick up truck
I'm a four wheelin maniac
And if you wanna race
Just name the place
And ill show you where its at

Shout It

Not on this stage to take up space I'm here to communicate face to face
I'll hold my head up high and shout it look you in the eye and shout it
hold my head up high shout it look you in the eye and shout it
criticized for speaking out I guess you don't know what we're about
so I'll hold my head up high and shout its look you in the eye shout it
hold my head up high shout it look you in the eye and shout it
we're just some friends who want to be heard through out music we'll spread our word
trying our best to figure what life is about seeing the good makes me want to shout
shout it there's nothing wrong with saying my part the message I cry is from the heart
won't change my ideas just to please you you've built the walls we're breaking through

I am seeking that “titled”, LOVE…

I am seeking that SWEET LOVE, STAND UP FOR LOVE type of love, LOVERS & FRIENDS kind of love, that Trick love the kids love.
I stare in your brown eyes and wish I had that SEXY LOVE, LOVE IN A SPECIAL WAY love, HATE THAT I LOVE YOU love.
I want to be able to question myself and ask if this COULD BE LOVE.
I wanna make him scream and shout, that’s not a problem because MY LOVE IS LIKE WOAH, my LOVE IS INCREDIBLE, my LOVE DON’T LOVE NOBODY else except for him because ALL I WANT IS his LOVE. I bet he will never experience A LOVE LIKE THIS BEFORE.
I want us to MAKE GOOD LOVE.
I want to make love in the street, perhaps get some CADILLAC LOVE.
I want to make him the LOVE OF MY LIVE and let him know that my LOVE DON’T COST A THING.
I want our loving to combine and become that ONE LOVE, to also have a hot sweaty love like the CALIFORNIA LOVE.

I am seeking that SWEET LOVE, ILL MAKE LOVE TO YOU type of love, DON’T TAKE YOUR LOVE AWAY kind of love, that I’m in love with a stripper love.
I stare in your brown eyes and wish I had that STUDIO LOVE,
I want to be able to question HOW DEEP IS YOUR LOVE.
I wanna make him scream and shout, that’s not a problem because MY LOVE IS LIKE WOAH, my LOVE IS ALIVE. I bet he will never experience this special NO ORDINARY LOVE.
I want to MAKE GOOD L.O.L.O.L.O.L.O.V.E.
I want us to make LOVE IN THE ELEVATOR, to show that our LOVE IS EVERLASTING, continuous, it does not stop on any level.
I want to make him the LOVE AMONG THE RUINS and let him know that LOVE CHANGES EVERYTHING.
I want our love to be stupid as if LOVE DON’T MAKE NO SENSE and to be an everlasting LOVE BY DAY, LOVE BY NIGHT

Scream

I wake up late at night
Makin' sure you're still by my side
I try hard not to make a sound
Can't help my heart it just beats so loud
So full of love I could burst
The way I feel about you girl I wanna just
Scream at the top of my lungs
Tell the whole world how much I love you
Shout it from the highest mountain
Let 'em know I found the girl of my dreams
It's pure electricity girl, you get into me
Like nobody else could
It feels so good I could scream
How can I sleep with you right there
I wanna bury my face in your long blonde hair
Moonlight falls across your skin
I fight the urge building up again
But it's too late I feel the rush
Runnin' through my body girl I wanna just
Scream at the top of my lungs
Tell the whole world how much I love you
Shout it from the highest mountain
Let 'em know I found the girl of my dreams
It's pure electricity girl, you get into me
Like nobody else could
It feels so good I could scream
Scream at the top of my lungs
Tell the whole world how much I love you
Scream at the top of my lungs
Tell the whole world how much I love you
Shout it from the highest mountain
Let 'em know I found the girl of my dreams
It's pure electricity girl, you get into me
Like nobody else could
It feels so good I could
Can't help myself I gotta
Here it comes, I wanna scream
I'm sorry, I just couldn't help myself
Scream
Make me wanna scream baby
Here it come baby, I'm gonna
Scream, yeah
You scream too if you feel the need to
