Most of what I believe I could never prove Truth is much stranger than fiction Time is a corridor, a gallery of rooms One door closes, one door opens So when did I get so jaded, cynical as I am And why am I out here hanging Like a stranger in my native land Maybe my alienation is all right Beam me up Scotty, no intelligent life Beam me up Scotty, they're all out of their minds Beam me up Scotty, no intelligent life Beam me up Scotty, they're all out of their freaking minds Most of what I believed was a fairy tale Only black & white, no shades of grey But no one can tell you this…find out on your own Usually in rude & late awakenings So why have the visions faded, ending like a sorry song Leaving me standing naked and freezing at the crack of dawn Maybe my expectations were all wrong... Beam me up Scotty, no intelligent life Beam me up Scotty, they're all out of their minds Beam me up Scotty, no intelligent life Beam me up Scotty, they're all out of their fucking minds

Tequila worm livin' inside my head tiny little dungeon of the living dead telephone ringin' like a broken thing Jesus was an alien Magpie epigram late in June stone cold sober, blood red moon preachin' to the choir it's a 13 thing Jesus was an alien Gotta be a reason or so they say everything's never gonna be okay long time comin' the clock won't stop you can hear a pin drop Lyin' on eleven on a cocaine line cyber sex soldier said it's party time thank you mr. obvious i get this thing Jesus was an alien Silicone hooker, chinese monk strolling thru the graveyard two time drunk pushin' up daisies with bowling pin Jesus was an alien God plays chess with the holy ghost raises up a glass to make a little toast kill a million people it's a crazy thing Jesus was an alien Gotta be a reason or so they say everything's never gonna be okay long time comin' the clock won't stop you can hear a pin drop Mama in a coma near a cobra tree methadone clinic refugee screaming like a banshee wolverine Jesus was an alien Daddy took a big hit coughed it up cryin' in a corner like a little whipped pup kill the baby hitler it's a family thing Jesus was an alien

They see you when you're being bad They watch you when you're sleeping Their phantom power drives you mad Who are the Jazz Police? They know exactly what you said that day when you were freaking they keep it buried 'til you're dead Who are the Jazz Police? Chorus: wanna be; gotta be; gonna be; outta be that's the way it plays coulda been; shoulda been; maybe then I woulda been typical these days wanna be; gotta be; gonna be; outta be that's the way (and so) it goes coulda been; shoulda been; maybe then I woulda been one more to expose you think you're pure as driven snow a common misconception stalin was simpatico Who are the Jazz Police? you're out of sight & out of mind at least that's your perception never know what they will find Who are the Jazz Police? Chorus: wanna be; gotta be; gonna be; outta be that's the way it plays coulda been; shoulda been; maybe then I woulda been typical these days wanna be; gotta be; gonna be; outta be that's the way (and so) it goes coulda been; shoulda been; maybe then I woulda been one more to expose Bridge: wake up; take a breath is there really life after death? pay attention to the jazz police wake up; they're at the door this is difficult to ignore pay attention to the jazz police wake up; you're outta time another life on the line pledge allegiance to the jazz police They see you when you're being good They watch you when you're working They live here in your neighborhood Who are the Jazz Police?

K.O. 03:48
I dropped a tab of nasty acid in '69 the summer of love and in my bag a couple of ludes, some uppers & a couple of buds Got on plane headed to London I didn't even wanna go No escape for love or money Gotta be completely K.O. Talked myself into exhaustion Watched a hundred movies or more Chicago playing a million repetitions of 25 or 6 to 4 I swear I never felt this crazy before Help Me Jesus I outta have my head examined tripping with my family Head full of acid on a 747 what's to become of me Catching up to meet the sunrise Kaleidoscopic, colorful sky Could not speak when I finally peaked All I could do was cry Lunged into the lavatory, staring at the mutating glass Waiting in fear for the knock on the door Customs man be kicking my ass Frantically flushing all the goodies Please help me jesus off the floor Sweating bullets & the clock won't move I swear I'll never do it no more

Loopy Lucy 04:03
She slithered inside the way she did a million times before She didn't say a word as she sunk down on my floor Loopy Lucy tell me where do you belong Loopy Lucy ain't it time you run on home Alien girl I believe you're one of them treading on my dreams with your hobnail boots again Loopy Lucy tell me where do you belong Loopy Lucy ain't it time you run on home No one is an island & we reap just what we sow You take it to the limit then you're losing everyone you know Loopy Lucy tell me where do you belong Loopy Lucy ain't it time you run on home

Ways To Die 03:44
Doctor won’t you help me please There must be something wrong with me Unpleasant dreams & horrible thoughts I seem to be obsessed with these Ghoulie ghouls & goblins too Are lurking underneath my bed Zombies drool & skeletons rule Can’t get these creatures out of my head These ways to die Fall out of bed & hit your head There’s heat asphyxiation Asian flu, hypothermia too smoke inhalation a snake could bite, a bee could sting you could be allergic to it lose your balance on the stairs and say bye-bye spread your wings and fly away (it’s what you gotta do) take that one-way ticket home (going ho-oo-oh-oo-oh-oo-ome) a rabid dog could bite your leg there could be a cataclysm a parasite from spoiled food could give you botulism if the aliens came they could change your name and confiscate your body your heart could explode, your brain implode these ways to die a lighting strike could electrify you could be caught in a fire you could see a ghost & have a stroke maybe just wanna get a little higher beaned by a truss, run over by a bus there’s a million variations gasoline fumes, an infected wound it’s the end of life

looking for deliverance searching for another sign looking at a point of view thinking of a state of mind Ahh…it's a perfect day looking for a witness looking for a friend of mine looking for some happiness looking for some peace of mind what a perfect day and who cares if the masses are brain dead who cares if this planet explodes who cares if all the windows are painted that's just the way it goes Ahhh...what a perfect day; another perfect day looking for a reason searching for an alibi wonder if it's hopeless wonder if it's worth another try Ahhh….it's a perfect day looking for a witness looking for a friend of mine looking for some happiness looking for some peace of mind Ahhh….it's a perfect day and who cares if the masses are brain dead who cares if this planet explodes who cares if all the windows are painted that's just the way it goes Ahhh...what a perfect day; another perfect day

about

Decidedly dark, deep tracks. Solid writing, recording and production. Influenced by Roger Waters, Tom Waits, Donald Fagen, Ian Hunter, Dizzy Gillespie, Django Reinhardt, The Beatles, and so many others. No love songs, no politics. A bit of a manifesto...a document for anyone who cares.
