Theory of devolution
I am a pacifist, I despise war.
It’s the only thing I actually hate.
I’m never able to brace myself for
Diplomacy that deteriorates:
Recriminating dialogue amuck
That results in irrationality.
Adults become intellectual schmucks
Whose mentality in reality
Is equivalent to a chimpanzee
In spite of our advances in science.
Our mentality still swings from the trees
Where once apish self’s had claimed provenance.
We haven’t evolved from our ancient source
Thus war is likely a matter of course.

Ive Got You Under My Skin
Ive got you under my skin.
Ive got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that youre really a part of me.
Ive got you under my skin.
Id tried so not to give in.
I said to myself: this affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well
Ive got you under my skin?
Id sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin you near
In spite of a warnin voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:
Dont you know, little fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
cause Ive got you under my skin.
(musical interlude)
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats - how it yells in my ear:
Dont you know, little fool, you never can win?
Why not use your mentality - step up, wake up to reality?
But each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
cause Ive got you under my skin.
Yes, Ive got you under my skin.

Ive Got You Under My Skin
I have got you under my skin
Ive got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart
Youre nearly a part of me
Ive got you under my skin
I have tried so not to give in
I have said to myself this affair
Never gonna go somewhere
But why should I try to resist
When baby I know so well
That Ive got you under my skin
I would sacrafice anything
Come what might
For the sake of holding you near
In spite of a warning voice
That comes in the night
It repeats and it shouts in my ear
Dont you know blue-eyes
You never can win
Use your mentality
Wake up to reality
But each time I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
cause Ive got you under my skin
Id sacrafice anything
Come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice
That comes in the night
It repeats and it shouts in my ear
Dont you know you old fool
You never can win
Use your mentality
Wake up to reality
But each time that I do
Just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
cause Ive got you under my skin
And I love you (when youre) under my skin

Peculiar Russian mentality
Peculiar Russian mentality
We have only future or past
We often ignore the mortality
And risk our life at die cast.
We hate any limits or borders
Despise the conventions and laws
We have affection to robbers
And sympathy to the whores.
In pubs we are greatest of thinkers
In parliament – stupid as ass,
The only thing that still link us
Is that that we drink to excess.

I Want The One I Cant Have
On the day that your mentality
Decides to try to catch up with your biology
Come round ...
cause I want the one I cant have
And its driving me mad
Its all over, all over, all over my face
On the day that your mentality
Catches up with your biology
I want the one I cant have
And its driving me mad
Its all over, all over, all over my face
A double bed
And a stalwart lover for sure
These are the riches of the poor
A double bed
And a stalwart lover for sure
These are the riches of the poor
And I want the one I cant have
And its driving me mad
Its all over, all over my face
A tough kid who sometimes swallows nails
Raised on prisoners aid
He killed a policeman when he was
Thirteen
And somehow that really impressed
Me
And its written all over my face
Oh, these are the riches of the poor
These are the riches of the poor
I want the one I cant have
And its driving me mad
Its written all over my face
On the day that your mentality
Catches up with your biology
And if you ever need self-validation
Just meet me in the alley by the
Railway station
Its all over my face
Oh ...

Played On
People of a certain mentality,
Have a commonness with each other...
And they play games.
The more they believe they are in demand,
They do this...
And the game remains the same.
They make promises they never keep.
They wish to make others wait...
While they deceive another,
Who is not aware they cheat.
And doing this preserving an innocence believed.
As they juggle several relationships,
Until their spouses find this out...
And from them they leave!
People of a certain mentality,
Have a commonness with each other...
And they play games.
Stupid ones!
But they don't know they are played on them,
Everyday!

The Mentality of One's Ignorance
The mentality of one's ignorance,
Is often fed from birth.
One's environment exposes them...
To a comfort they grow to thirst.
People of limited securities,
Are the first to label and compare.
Uncertain of their own identities...
They use status and class,
To separate themselves...
In communities as if others are diseased.
The mentality of one's ignorance,
Is often fed from birth.
Beliefs and standards are subsidized,
To qualify one's worth.
And the ones who are at a disadvantage...
Aren't the ones who are depicted as poor!
The ones whose lives are victimized...
Are those who take from others,
With a quest that feeds a need for more!
And unsatisfied with their own lives...
They refuse to respect other cultures,
By imposing their own,
Upon foreign shores.

A Highly Evolved Being
A highly evolved being
would not kill,
A highly evolved being,
would meditate and be still.
A highly evolved being
is “positively aware”
of everything including
birds in the air.
A highly evolved being
enjoys everything
and needs nothing.
They do not need see evil to be
“Postively Aware”.
For a highly evolved being
only shares,
and really cares
For all are ALL ONE,
from the same source,
For life becomes a meditation
and everything is a part of the whole,
everything works together
helping each other grow.
Grow and become the best
that they can be,
To be an effect on the future
and make it filled with merriness and glee.

No Control Over Me
You think I need you. Well I'm sorry you do. Here's a clue. Screw that. The power you had is gone like a broken contract. I rather wait for the dawn alone. I won't be manipulated by useless whims. And that's a fact. I don't want or need. I just get by until I see change. Rearrange the mentality of such a fictitious reality. You want me then chase. Because I'm in a race. So what ever you do don't get in the way. Because I won't stay. Standing still dulls the mind. Limits your time. I have so much to give. Why would you want to destroy it. Face it. Embrace the Idea that I can't be tamed. Even by calling me names. Playing on my pity. You know I have a little dignity. So leave for I hate those who deceive. For my souls at peace and always will be.

Sonnet: Adults
Adults are selfish beings of the earth;
Adults don’t forgive/ forget tho’ mature;
Adults are creatures adamant by birth;
Adults are jealous beings, by nature.
Adults have arguing tongues till the end;
Adults misunderstand others with ease;
Adults can neither condescend nor bend;
Adults cannot adjust with/others please.
Adults are sinful in thought, word and deed
Adults are the ones, misguiding the youth;
Adults are beings revengeful indeed;
Adults can speak effortlessly untruth.
Adults advise but remember old fights;
Adults cannot give up their insane rights!

Justified Actions
Justified actions!
No matter who finds them offensive.
Or who they are against to offend.
Are done and expected to be condoned,
By any and everyone.
And that is the attitude,
By the doer that is shown.
Although physically grown...
A mentality is vacant.
And does not show a sign of respect,
Is near or will approach anytime soon.
Justified actions!
Even when videotape is supplied...
Folks become defensive,
And try to deny
What is seen by the eyes!
And expect to be...
And get,
Excused!
And some wonder why,
A harshness comes when describing them...
As fools!
However...
It seems to be an appropriate fit,
By those who have experienced...
The reality and not the romanticized version,
Of their ways and this existence!
Protected,
From scutiny...
And truth!

On The Real Tip
The environment one is exposed to and knows,
Is that environment one will associate...
As the one that initially makes sense.
A process of conditioning takes place.
And subconsciously a reality,
That forms one's mentality becomes hard to erase.
And on the 'real tip'?
Those that accept consciousness,
Could careless about any of this!
