Einstein was searching for String Theory. It not only reconciles General Relativity to Quantum Mechanics, but it reconciles Science and the Bible as well.

Custom Machine

Check my custom machine
Well shes metal flake blue with a corvette grill
(check my custom machine)
And they say it looks better when shes standin still
(check my custom machine)
When I step on the gas she goes wa aa aa
Ill let you look but dont touch my custom machine
Well with naugahyde bucket seats in front and back
(check my custom machine)
Everything is chrome, man, even my jack
(check my custom machine)
When I step on the gas she goes wa aa aa
Ill let you look but dont touch my custom machine
With stereophonic speaker set with fibrosonic sound
(check my custom machine)
Magnesium spokes, it stands an inch off the ground
(check my custom machine)
When I step on the gas she goes wa aa aa
Ill let you look but dont touch my custom machine
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo

Marguerite Yourcenar

Our civil laws will never be supple enough to fit the immense and changing variety of facts. Laws change more slowly than custom, and though dangerous when they fall behind the times are more dangerous still when they presume to anticipate custom.

All the Faith

He has a religion for all the faith,
Ours for the taking, ours for the right.
May we ascertain properly,
With learned men see the light.
The bubbles of words come from our mouths
Like soap and liquid, and all things about washing,
Cleaning us all with phrases of joy and harmony.
A custom breathed is a custom of sincerity,
You must take your faith and then reveal
To the people what is in their breaths,
And what minds offer in the form of questions
And answers.

Love is the crowning grace of humanity, the holiest right of the soul, the golden link which binds us to duty and truth, the redeeming principle that chiefly reconciles the heart to life, and is prophetic of eternal good.

Customs

Flow with custom in the light of drama,
This new disposition is working like a dream.
May the mercy erupt and show clarity
In the noting down of principles so shameless.
We are dreaming like a sleeper on a forced habit,
Their thoughts are seen by the ones present.
We seek your company as of now, of immobile features
That drag on and on, working away like real natures.
Custom takes on prettiness the way you were,
In the effort to drag a new meaning of awe.

Romans 5: 6 - 11

we are weak and ungodly
no man dies for a righteous man

God dies for us
sinners

it is death, like anything else
that reconciles

mortal to immortal
divinity bowing low
to save
the mundane and
earthly

think of love again
how you swallowed your ego
how you surrendered
everything
just to love the undeserving

Lonely Ol Night

She calls me up and says baby its a lonely ol night
I dont know Im just so scared and lonely all at the same time
Nobody told us it was gonna work out this way no, no, no, no, no
I guess they knew wed work it out in our own way
Chorus:
Its a lonely ol night
Can I put my arms around you
Its a lonely ol night
Custom made for two lonely people like me and you
Radio playing softly some singers sad sad song
Hes singing about standing in the shadows of love
I guess he feels awfully alone
She says I know exactly what he means yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And its a sad, sad feeling when youre living on those in-betweens
But its okay
Chorus:
Its a lonely ol night
Can I put my arms around you
Its a lonely ol night
Custom made for two lonely people like me and you
She calls me baby she calls everybody baby
Its a lonely ol night but aint they all
Chorus:
Its a lonely ol night
Can I put my arms around you
Its a lonely ol night
Custom made for two lonely people like me and you

Three Angels

Nine dollars, two cents
No money, no rent
8759 thats the number
Be on time
Bring something, dont care
Whatever, be there
Good woman, good loving, good feeling
Three angels
Eight castles, wants nine
Unhappy all the time
Gold headlights, cant see
Sure could help him, feel free
Five aces, no calls
Easy action on the walls
One burning, two custom, all waiting
Three angels
Burns, hofner, white flats
All together feeding back
No mixer, no lights
Good fixer, be all right
Dream wishing, downtown
In the windows, locked sound
One burning, two custom, all waiting
Three angels

No-go Showboat

No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
Well I got a wild custom that wins every show
But its a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
Yeah but everybody knows that she just dont go
Shes my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
White wall slicks with racing mags
Shes just for looks, man, not for drags
cause its a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No go
No go
Well the guys all dig it theyve got no complaints
About my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
And the chicks really flip for that metal flake paint
On my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
It really rates fine in the custom clan
With hand-formed panels, tuck-and-roll rear pan
cause its a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No go
No go
Well the engine compartments filled with all chrome goodies
In my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
Yeah but everybody takes me even old ford woodies
In my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
When it comes to speed, man, Im just outa luck
Im even shut down by the ice cream truck
cause its a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No go
No go
No-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No-go showboat (no-go showboat)
Shes just my (no-go showboat)
Shes just my (no-go showboat)
