Hippie Dream Song 03:03
lyrics
download
We travel around the world, don’t you let it stop There’s a light up there, I’ll dread my hair We’ll dance until we drop So gather ‘round you crunchy crowd We’ll take it to the top We travel around the world, don’t you let it stop Now I know, we’ll steal the glass you blow And someday you’ll see I’m more than twice as heady By now you might think That our hippie song stinks Relax, you’ll love it here I just dosed your beer We travelled around the world, now we gotta stop We burnt our brains, we went insane Our album was a flop The money’s gone, we broke the bongs Our dreads have all been chopped We travelled around the world Now we’re pushing rocks

The Sphinx 05:22
lyrics
download
Divine descendents steer the body of energy Accumulating vast displays of authority Informing others of their power, strength and wealth At the expense of the population's health It stands alone as a symbol of what once was Eroding slowly over time as everything does The lone remainder of a massive society Standing today but retains no authority Later we ascend Chasing the same end Living out our lives Stuck in overdrive Dreams of vast displays Occupy our days Everything we buy Crumbles over time

Never thought I'd meet a lovely woman like that Who would love me at the end of the day She told me, she told me She said she'd never leave But when I ploop, she run away

The Stag-Craggity Forest 02:27
lyrics
download
It was midnight in the stag-craggity forest I was driving with my best girl, Anna-Leigh When lightning flashed through the night sky We veered off the road and hit a tree We wandered through the forest for hours Just trying to find our way back to the road When Anna-Leigh screamed, 'cause we were surrounded By a big scary pack of wild ghosts They led us through the forest to a castle There was a houl, it gave me goosebumps on my skin Inside, I could hear the monsters and zombies The door opened, and a scary voice said, "COME IN!" The masked figure led us down a hallway I could hear music playing behind the walls I turned around, but Anna-Leigh had vanished When some vampires grabbed me by the balls They dragged me away, kicking and screaming They bit my neck, and threw me through a door But it wasn't my blood that they were after No, these monsters all craved something more In the main hall the ghouls were all in motion A feast of flesh for their delight When I realized, they weren't maiming, they were dancing And then I knew it was a cosmic night

Cosmic Night 01:25
lyrics

Cosmic night is the dance around the nation At the speed of light, electric harmony sensation And the feeling's right, it will get your body moving And your soul will say, "Hey man, this song is grooving" Oh no! Cosmic night

Cloak 03:18
lyrics
download
The vast victims of fear They work so hard to each turn a gear so pointlessly The golden ones will all decay the same As every other living being The thieves will never live to take away The happiness we get from dreaming We climb from the hole But you dig on to maintain control of everyone The golden ones will all decay the same As every other living being The thieves will never live to take away The happiness we get from dreaming Propped up by your wealth Your kind thrives, destroying our health, collectively The golden ones will all decay the same As every other living being The thieves will never live to take away The happiness we get from dreaming It's all deception and lies I see right through your disguise so easily A nice suit may cloak scum But I'm not mad, your time will come eventually

Brain Snakes 04:04
lyrics
download
Twirling tail to head Creatures forming red triangles Asking me to stay I can't for I'm only passing By the winds that blow away the lands I walk from Something else is lingering inside as I move on Something else is slithering, Whoa! Twirling tail to head Snakes are moving through my bed Try to wake and flee The serpents all surrounding me Lined along the crevices of each step I climb Pyramid of snakes still looms in landscapes of my mind Pyramid is caving in, Whoa! Brain snakes are chasing me

Ho Bag Bitch 04:18
lyrics
download
So full of beauty, this world full of man But things are so ugly, our struggle demands Outspoken heroes to show us the way While you give the guidance, I tell you I'd much prefer to say Yeah mother fucker mother ho bag bitch Mother bitch mother fucker mother ho She's a ho bag bitch and the places she been Mother fucker, nobody knows Such overwhelming mountains to climb The bad guys are winning, the good ones decline The dummies believe them and hop right aboard They're chanting such non-sense I'll give you a phrase I much prefer Yeah mother fucker mother ho bag bitch Mother bitch mother fucker mother ho She's a ho bag bitch and the places she been Mother fucker, nobody knows The shivering masses left out in the cold Our leaders ignore them, the rights have been sold To plunder our savings, to pamper the rich While you call it "bail-out" I call it a big fucking ho bag bitch

Dragonfly 03:01
lyrics
download
Starlight in the sky An old woman's voice will fall silent tonight She made waves through time and space Still the young grandson remembers her face As our dream keeps moving on Memories are gone The truth, I seem to forget Or have I learned it yet? I'm one limb of everything Eyes seperate the one whole entity You'll find the energy Blinding the eyes, but the mind learns to see As our dream keeps moving on Memories are gone The truth I seem to forget Or have I learned it yet? The sunset dragonfly Gave me a wink and flew into the night But I let you slip away I'm hoping your journey will return you someday As our dream keeps moving on Memories are gone The truth I seem to forget Or have I learned it yet?

Living next to a crackhouse Please don't knock on my door I don't need to borrow a cup of sugar anymore Living next to a crackhouse I do not have spare change I don't believe you'll buy a burrito Now I must be on my way You dumb fuck, you fried your brain Get off my porch, get out of my way Collect my bottles, take my cans Recycle that shit, Mr. Crackman Mr. Crackman Living next to a crackhouse Loud, ambiguous yells Are they laughing or fighting Through the wall, it's hard to tell Living next to a crackhouse Cheapest rent I could find Turn the TV up louder Lock the door, close the blinds You dumb fuck, you fried your brain Get off my porch, get out of my way Collect my bottles, take my cans Recycle that shit, Mr. Crackman And you do anything for the little white rocks If I was lame, you'd be eating my socks For a couple dollars to make it through You're creeping me out, forget you! Mr. Crackman

about

This is the band's first album which was performed and recorded by Dave and Shark in their home studio. One day, while the two were at work, their house was broken into by a couple of meth-addicts who stole the computer and external hard drive which contained the masters for this album. The album was stolen before the band could do a final mix or master on it. Oh well, fuck it, it still rocks. Cover art by Kev MC
