Lyrics:
Yo, I never felt like this.
Took a wild ride, landed me on this trip tonight.
Don't know what this's all about,
but I'm feelin' real good and I think I'm on the ground.
"Hey man, do ya need a drink?"
Stay the fuck away you're crazy man,
don't wanna start a war again.
"Okayyy... you feel alright?"
YO, YOU'RE STRAIGHT UP OUTTA YOUR MIND.
Invasion—must warn the people of the nation,
All that I gotta do is be strong and walk out the door...
It's time to fight!
Invasion—must warn the people of the nation,
All that I gotta do is be strong and walk out the door...
It's time to fight a war!
"Hey babe, I love your eyes."
Black magic doesn't work on me I won't be hypnotized.
"You're too cute, honey—what's your name?"
I don't have to take that from an 80 foot magazine!
"Sup brah, you got the time?"
Keep away! Keep away! You're a talking K-9!!
"Woof grrrrr... Woof woof, woof!"
Oh... true.
Uh oh... it's getting critical
And all I know's I need a miracle
To help me end this fight...
Must push through to save the world, but—
Oh no! it's getting critical
And all I know's I need a miracle
To find a safer place to hide—
Right there! Just through that door...
(Chorus)
Hey, you in the mirror... you okay?
Alright... all we gotta do... is get out of the bathroom...
Get out of the house... and warn the world...
We! (Won't!) Lie down and hand this over
We! (Will!) Sacrifice our life for freedom
We (Won't!) Lie down and hand this over
We! (Will!) Sacrifice for all existence
We! (Won't!) Lie down and hand this over
We! (Will!) Give up our lives... for the universe!!
(Chorus & Pre-Chorus)
Gotta push through to save the world, tonight.
I must push through to save the world, tonight.

Lyrics:
Well you thought I was fine
But you were too alive...
That ain't my scene.
So you never caught my eye,
Oh no no, never on my mind.
I didn't feel your moves but now you're gone.
Girl, but now you've caught my eye,
Oh yeah, you're always on my mind.
I didn't dig you till I dug you...
I dug you up!
Break it down and fire it up.
It's your grave,
It's my rave...
Let's get down till we fire it up.
You thought I'd be easy,
Where was your head baby?
Now it's off.
So, you never caught my eye,
Oh no no, never on my mind.
I didn't feel your groove but now your gone.
Girl, but now you've caught my eye,
Oh yeah, you're always on my mind.
I didn't dig you till I dug you...
I dug you up!

Lyrics:
In this town, the old hotel is jumpin', (jump jump, jumpty jump!)
Lassos left, peglegs on the right (on the right, on the right, on the right!)
Well, I don't ride and you ain't got no treasure map,
But we got what we got and that's all we really need tonight.
Oooh, well it's a topsy-turvy world,
But that's just how it be.
Pirates are made to be with cowboys,
And you're the one for me.
Well now I know, you're never to be without your whiskey (without your whiskey!),
And I'm here, tilting back me bottle of rum (bottle of rum!)
But hey now, I'm the biggity baddest bucco for ya— hah.
And it's booty I want, so I'm coming gonna loot me some.
Oo oo, all the world's a pretty pony—oo oo!
Yo ho, better let me ride tonight...
(Chorus)
Pirates. Cowboys. Pirates. Pirates & Cowboys.
(Chorus)
Ya know you better believe
Oh it's a topsy-turvy world,
But that's just how it be.
Pirates are made to be with cowboys,
And you're for me.

Bypassing Us By
03:23

Lyrics:
Stuck in a void—a void of apathy.
I needed more—more than what I was feeling.
I left to find a whole new life to live.
Can't stop searching...
It always seems as though I've hit a wall.
Is there a point to anything I'm doing?
It's all become so fucking dull to me.
Help me want to care...
So can you see the life around you
Passing us by... passing it by?
Remember all the things that we've let slip away,
staring at the window.
Have you seen the world beyond you
Passing us by... passing it by?
It's nothing but a scene until it's gone...
This stream of night—it flashes over me.
This gale of wind intensifies the music.
This sound I feel alive and moving me...
So much closer...
A shooting star—it flashes over me.
The vibrant moon illuminates the feeling.
There's something here—more than just what I see...
Is it all a dream?
There's much more there than what you see
If you look just beyond yourself
You'd be surprised at what you see
When you look past what binds you.
There's much more there than what you see
If you look just beyond yourself
You'd be surprised at what you see
When you're not caught within yourself...
(Chorus)

Lyrics:
We're having a fight tonight.
A sloth and platypus fight tonight!
Run and hide... for your life... stay inside...
Left to right... side to side... bump and grind...
They fight a fight tonight,
No, woman they fight tonight.
Best watch your back tonight
It's going (on) down tonight.
(Chorus)
Let's get this started up
Come on, pump your body up
Let's rip this city up.
Let's get this started up,
Come on, gonna pump your body up
Let's rip this city up.
(Chant)
We're having a fight tonight.
A sloth and platypus fight tonight!
(Chorus)
Sloth and platypus
A sloth and platypus
Sloth and a platypus fight tonight.
I said sloth and platypus
A sloth and platypus
Sloth and a platypus fight tonight.
Tonight.

Rhythm of the Sun

|
Lyrics:
She woke me up to say,
"Darling you were calling out my name,
A way you never had before."
As this dream passes swiftly by
Lying here with seconds left of life
Wishing I had lived at all...
And now it's starting again...
Just one strand of time
Reaching out is why we are alive.
And the silent die alone.
Tell me though...
Will we sing when the music fades?
I can feel the beat like the slowing of my heart.
Now it's too far gone...
Everybody dance to the rhythm of the sun.
As the music fades,
I can feel the beat like the slowing of my heart,
But now it's far too gone,
Everybody dance to the rhythm of the sun.
She left me flowers there;
One for every word I wish I'd said.
In this garden I'm alone...
But now I'm awake and you're gone and
I desperately want
To speak until I can't say anymore
Well, I'm crying out to an empty wall...
(Prechorus/Chorus)
We are too blind to see (the light)
With borrowed eyes,
If we stare into the sun...

Lyrics:
We are the chosen
We are crusaders; the purest of the pure.
Come to the river and see the light—
A sight, to blind away the right.
JOIN US and be part of
A celebration of suffering and song,
We'll always love you as long as YOU HATE THEM
And believe we're never wrong.
When I was young I didn't know the way to
Live my life along with all the perfect people.
Thank God they told me not to kill my mom,
Would've gone and done it but they said I'd burn.
I know he loves me and I'll gladly follow blindly
'Cause I know that only he can show the right way
Now I know the way to get into the sky:
By clouding up my mind.
(High voice choir)
Child, we are the holy ones; yes, the puritans,
Join us and achieve salvation.
Pray to God, be free of sin, or eternally burn in Hell.
(Low voice choir)
We are the righteous, follow us to Jannah,
Submit to Allah and ascend to paradise for
We are the righteous, worshipers of Allah,
All the unbelievers will forever dwell in fire.
Used to things I thought I loved
Enjoyed myself just like the way
That a young man would need to do.
As just a foolish boy I listened to my heart and mind
And not to the one we call: God.
So now I know it all was just a sin
Over and over I fell for the happiness
A holy man now I just keep to the book,
I never give a pleasure a double look.
(Pre-chorus/Chorus)
Come on no one's got anything on us
No one's God is as good as our God,
Better put all the faith ya got in us.
Have we mentioned if ya don't you're gonna burn?
'Cause you know...
(Chorus)
(Pre-Chorus)
(High voice choir)
Invite Jesus as your savior.
Pray for your sins or burn.
(Low voice choir)
Pray to Allah, ascend to Jannah,
Follow us to paradise if you follow our God,
The righteous surrender their lives
As all unbelievers dwell in fire.

Lyrics:
Ya silly boy, well you'll never see,
No one wants to play when you're Mr. Bully.
You run around grabbing all the toys,
Making so much noise,
When you gonna learn the way?
Get down with Mexico!
The maître d' was a vigilante.
Big ups to Texaco!
Mothers love when you up the ante some.
It's unbelievable!
Pretty good for a skiin' flunky.
It's so hysterical!
Why would God make my dad a monkey??
(Chorus)
Hey Mr. Know-it-all!
Always do what you're not supposed to.
Hey Mr. Ranger sir!
You're the punk who traded Sammy Sosa ohh...
Hey Mr. Pants on Fire!
Saw you hangin' with troublemakers.
Hey Mr. Lucky Star!
How'd you get so cute?
(Chorus)
Why would all power fall to the hands of a little boy?
Why would all power fall to a little boy?
(Chorus)
It's so clear to me
No one wants to play when you it all your way.
Don't you care to see? Would you please?
Listen little baby, driving people crazy,
Do ya think it's all a game?

Lyrics:
C-c-cut! Ch-ch-chop!
Take a stab and let it ride,
We'll take a stab and let it ride
Make a stab to stay alive
Now fake a smile.
Here we go (oh oh!)
It's coming out tonight,
You walk the streets without a knife,
That might not be too bright
(watch your back, alright?)
What's that sound (oh oh!)
Well guess what I just found?
They tear you down all over town
So you're better never turning around...
Playing to survive,
Come on, just how friendly is this fight?
Don't believe the hype,
Tell you that they love you but they lie.
Best move your feet—
Come get up out your seat!
There's stabbing in the street—
Backstabbin' to the beat.
(Chorus)
Better lookout... they're out... lookout...
Ya better lookout... they're out... lookout you
Better lookout... they're out... lookout...
Ya better lookout... they'll catch you—
Gonna cut-cut-cut ya.
Jump, jump to it
Gotta keep your body moving
Get down with it
Gotta be the one to do it
'Cause they'd rather catch ya— cut ya— lookout!!
(Chorus)

Lyrics:
I stare, but only to see through you,
The beauty beyond you, it calls.
And I care but it's just not about you,
The rhythm around you, is all.
Come on... you want it?
Come on... you got it.
Cut me—baby if you just
Cut me and go back to sleep (go right back to sleep)
I'll bleed out this melody
Bleed this melody inside you
Till you appeal to me.
So cut me—maybe if you just
Cut me and go back to sleep (won't you go back to sleep?)
I'll bleed out this melody
Yeah, I'll bleed this melody into your dreams...
I know you expect me to want you,
Start ripping it off you tonight.
Well, I'll go just as far as to taste you,
Before I erase you from mind.
As I drown in the lust that employs you,
I'll try to endure you for now,
So kneel down I'll pretend to adore you,
In mind just to whore you, and how...
Come on... you want it?
Come on... you got it.
(Chorus)
Nothing you do touches me like sound...
No, nothing you do touches me like sound...
You think that you move me but know
Nothing you do touches me like sound...
No, music moves me so I can touch you.
(Chorus)
Nothing you do touches me like sound...
No, nothing you could ever hope for
Comes close to my heart.

Lyrics:
Away away, I can't get away.
Away away, from all that imprisons me.
Can't help but get the feeling
It's all about to break,
And all the while
I'm so trapped here in heartache.
So here we are,
We're standing arm in arm,
With everything between us left behind.
I close my eyes and let it show the way,
As we learn to lie alone.
Away away, I can't get away.
Away away, from all I can't seem to be.
Can't help but get the feeling
It's all about to break,
And all the while
I'm so trapped here in heartache.
(Chorus)
I see it all before me
Without a clear escape,
I feel it rushing toward me,
Don't think there's any other way...
(Don't you love me, baby?
So why you gotta go?
Don't you feel it baby?
I'll never let you go...)
To eliminate this time and place
And its grip on me.
I see it all before me
Without a clear escape,
And all the while
I'm so trapped here in heartache.
(Chorus)
As we learn to lie...
We lie alone...

Lyrics:
Hey, this is it.
It's about time you opened up your eyes.
This is it.
Look out, they're watching from all sides tonight,
And they'll never miss a break in silence.
Hey, this is it.
We're about to come upon the end of the line.
And it won't be long before we're riverside,
So just tread the narrows
And broaden your mind.
Here we are at the break of dawn,
Complacent bow with affliction drawn.
I don't know why you gotta go,
Why you gotta go...
Why you gotta go,
Why you gotta go alone.
Rendezvous as we unify,
The revolution begins tonight.
Never know why you gotta go,
Why you gotta go...
Why you gotta go,
Why you gotta go alone.
We won't let ourselves become
Those we wish to overrun,
But this all comes down to one...
Girl, this is it.
An awakening from all the pride.
This is it.
It's not the enemy that's wrong sometimes.
No, we also have ourselves to battle.
Girl, this is it.
They await your company inside.
Oh, and this...
Never mind your guise it doesn't suit your eyes,
So try this mask on I think it's just your size.
(Chorus)
We won't let ourselves become
Those we wish to overrun,
And it all comes down to one.
For each of us can have the power
Over our own lives,
But first you must decide.
Hey, this it... hey girl, this is it.
So take my hand, we'll dance the night away...
You've come so far and been through more
Than ever now, look at yourself,
And all that you've become.
Now dance with me; it's plain to see
Your golden heart is soon to set you free.
Come, won't you dance with me...
And find the key
To recognize all that you are,
And all that you can be.
(Chorus)
We won't let ourselves become
Those we wish to overrun,
And it all comes down to
The way this can be done—
A chance to overcome.
