Musical Worldview: Church Of The Cosmic Skull, "Everybody's Going to Die"

in , , ,

“Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Slipping away into the night
But we're feeling alright

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Everybody loses the fight
But we're feeling alright

Some of us believe that we will live forever
Some of us believe that we return
Some of us will go when we are all together
Some of us will go when we're alone

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Slipping away into the night
But we're feeling alright

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Everybody loses the fight
But we're feeling alright

Some of us will live like there is no tomorrow
Some of us will fight until the end
Some of us will struggle through the pain and sorrow
Some of us will choose to make it stop

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Slipping away into the night
But we're feeling alright

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Everybody loses the fight
But we're feeling alright

Some of us are taken long before we should be
Some of us will go before we're born
Some of us will do the things we want to do here
Some of us will not

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Slipping away into the night
But we're feeling alright

Everybody's going to die
Everybody
Everybody loses the fight
But we're feeling alright”

Musical Worldview: Iris Dement: "Going Down To Sing In Texas"

in , , ,

“. . . I'm so glad Jesus drove those moneychangers out of the church
He did not mince his words for fear that their feelings might get hurt
He spoke truth to power, He stood up for the poor
The church today wouldn't even let him through the door
I'm so glad Jesus drove those moneychangers out of the church

I know a couple of Muslims and they seem like pretty decent folks to me
I'd take anyone of them over that evangelist I'm watchin' on T.V.
You wanna ban something? I got a plan
Let's ban hate from every corner of our land
Well I know a couple of Muslims and they seem like decent folks to me

What's the deal with all these war criminals who get to walk around free
Like that president who lied about WMD
Hundreds of thousands of people are lying in their graves
Celebrities are calling him the sweet new friend they made
What's the deal with all these war criminals out walkin' around free . . . ”

Musical Worldview: Rikki Ililonga, "My Destiny"

in , , ,

“I know my destiny
so I”m free, my mind is clear
so take this love that I give
because I won’t be around for too long . . .

Darkness is the brother of Light
Awareness comes after a fight
The Truth of life is a mystery
but happiness is a love supreme

Let’s share what life has to give
Let’s love without any regrets . . .”

Musical Worldview: the Beach Boys, "I Know There's An Answer"

“I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their safety zones

Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive
I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

They come on like they're peaceful
But inside they're so uptight
They trip through their day
And waste all their thoughts at night

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better
I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself”

Musical Worldview: Fugazi, "Merchandise"

in , , ,

When we have nothing left to give
There will be no reason for us to live
But when we have nothing left to lose
You will have nothing left to use

We owe you nothing
You have no control
We owe you nothing
You have no control


Merchandise, it keeps us in line
Common sense says it's by design
What could a businessman ever want more
Than to have us sucking in his store


We owe you nothing
You have no control
We owe you nothing
You have no control

You are not what you own
You are not what you own
You are not what you own
You are not what you own

We owe you nothing
You have no control
We owe you nothing (nothing)
You have no control
We owe you nothing (nothing)
You have no control
