Afghan Smile 02:03
Twenty years in Afghanistan And we all got a T-Shirt On the front it says: Did that just happen? And on the back it says: Was It Worth It? War is really unnecessary You never know who won Impossible to spread democracy With the barrel of a gun Soldiers killing each other Doesn't fix a thing The rich get richer waging war Soldiers die young and poor Twenty years in Afghanistan And all we got was a T-Shirt On the front it says: Was it worthwhile? And on the back it says: Peace begins with a smile Don't terrify children with images of hell Don't train them to fear, to hate, and to kill Don't teach them that females are inferior human beings Don't replace reality with fanatical beliefs Twenty years in Afghanistan And we got a lovely T-Shirt On the front it says: Was it worthwhile? And on the back it says: Peace begins with a smile Peace begins with a smile

There's going to be trouble Don't worry It will come without your help Full of sound and fury Keep company only With people who uplift you Who call forth your best Forget all the rest Tell yourself the truth Set yourself free Conquer grief, don't deceive it If not you, then who? There's going to be trouble Don't worry It will come without your help Full of sound and fury Don't waste your time in fear Of things that will never come to be All you have is now, be here Be your best friend, oh be happy

September 15, 1963 Bombingham Alabama Four little girls killed by the KKK Four little girls killed by hate Dynamite planted in the church staircase Exploded in their face Killed four little girls that day Four little girls making their lives great Denise McNair Addie Mae Collins Cynthia Wesley Carole Robertson Four little girls blown away Maybe one day we'll be done with hate And all that other stuff Maybe we will become The United States of Love The United States of Love

Breaking Bad made me sad Wow! It’s all over now Breaking Bad made me sad Oh! What will we do now? No more high school teachin’ megalomaniac Lying cheating killing meth-makin’ Dad We love you Walt you’re the best we ever had But you ruined the life of one fine lad When you rode along to bust Jesse’s pad! Wow! It’s all over now We love you Hank the Man that never quit We love you Skyler you’re nobody’s bitch We love you Junior and your minor glitch We love you Jesse the justified snitch We all paid the price of getting rich! Wow! It’s all over now We miss you Mike the quintessential fixer You too Gus sponsor of elixirs We miss you Saul the professional trickster And you Marie the good wife and sister But Walt is the man we all call Mister! Wow! It’s all over now The study of change we call chemistry Lessons in pride fall from Greek tragedy Am I the danger? My own worst enemy? Can I say my own name? Do I know me? Until then maybe I should tread lightly! Wow! It’s all over now Breaking Bad made me sad Oh! What will we do now? Wow! It’s all over now

I don't care too much for preachers I don't like to go to church But I'd hate to meet St. Peter When my body leaves this Earth I don't want to go to Hell Made that mistake once I'm shopping for religion I need Fire Insurance I don't trust the bible That guy does more harm than good Helps me win my softball games Kills millions in childhood Sends earthquakes and tsunamis When His panties get in a bunch Fires and floods and hurricanes If you piss Him off too much I don't think there is a Hell But I'm gonna hedge my bet There's a bunch of pretty good gods for sale I don't know which one to get Apollo and Zeus are amazing dudes But I don't think they do softball Jesus is kinda cool But his Dad may kill us all I'm don't know which one to choose Maybe I'll pick a few I guess I got nothing to lose Unless none of them are true Or, maybe I'll just call your bluff Put on my big boy pants Put away all that scary stuff Just live and love and dance Live and love and dance You can keep your fire insurance

Walking down the street I saw a sign "Your Fortune Told -- Yours and Mine" I look in the window, I see her face She smiles at me in all upper case I open the door, I walk inside She stares at me with tropical eyes Fortune teller, what's my fate? She says: "Oh no, it's way too late" Help me please, I need to know She says "Careful what you're wishing for" Fortune teller read my future for me She says "Honey, you haven't got any" Then she locks the door, turned off the light Lit a tiny red candle that burned all night In the morning I whispered "What did you mean?" She just laughed and put me back between A finger on my back circles round and round I try to roll over but she holds me down What's the future of humanity? She says "That will require minor surgery" Her fingernail cuts ten letters in my skin Two naked bodies one shaking from within Are we doomed to extinction? Is it really too late? Those ten bloody letters spelled ITS ALL FATE I-T-S A-L-L F A-T-E No apostrophe No apology That afternoon I inquire again How long do we have, can you tell me when? She pumps her milk into my tippee cup And tells me "Our future is all used up" I knew down deep she might be right I kissed her twice and squeezed her tight Walking down the street I saw a sign "Your Fortune Told -- Yours and Mine" Walking down the street I saw a sign "Your Fortune Told -- Yours and Mine" Walking down the street I saw a sign "Your Fortune Told -- Yours and Mine"

I look at you, you look at me We only see what we want to see They look at us, we look at them See only others to completely condemn I look into your big bright eyes Pools of joy and beautiful skies Mountains and streams, desert and rain Whipping cream and peppermint pain Pick a star in the nighttime sky Pick a point You and I Hold on tight until we scream Love conquers all in our dream Pick a time you were full of joy Pick a time girls and boys Call that moment "Let It Be" Love conquers all eventually Pick a person to love today Pick yourself first Hey, hey, hey, hey Pick a person to love today Love conquers all That's what we say That's what we say That's what we say

There's a crucifixion tomorrow There's a lot of talk about Jumbo shrimp, common sense, United States Bittersweet, going home, accidental primates Cruel kindness, sweet sorrow Proud humility The sound of silence, Sweet Tarts Almost exactly Underneath the midnight sun Sits a blue kangaroo A slow speed disaster For the quiet cockatoo True lies, the longer half, all alone together Three Wise Men with frankincense, gold and myrrh Open secrets, rolling stops Civil war and turkey bacon Growing smaller, day by day A genuine imitation STAY CALM! DON'T PANIC! Act naturally United we stand, divided we fall Getting pretty ugly Cruel kindness, sweet sorrow Mercy on our soul Crucified tomorrow for the Seven Sins we hold STAY CALM! DON'T PANIC! Act naturally United we stand, divided we fall Proud humility Cruel kindness, sweet sorrow Mercy on our soul Crucified tomorrow for the Seven Sins we stole Go to the temple Make a slight right then a left Your'e gonna see a sign up there that says "Human Progress: the greatest oxymoron of all"

I once believed in the USA With liberty and justice for all Or at least for most And that's pretty close But the number is starting to fall I once believed a patriot He was one of the chosen few Who fly the same flag And proudly brag That we are better than you I once believed in mermaids Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny Then I got wise to all of them lies Except for the Tooth Fairy's money Now I hold just one thing true I believe in me and you I dream of humanity Singing silent harmony I once believed a preacher He told me to tithe ten percent So I gave him eleven For my ticket to heaven Now I just can't forget to repent I once believed my cable news Was totally balanced and fair They sounded so certain But behind the curtain Lies the wizard of doctrinaires I once believed a general Crossing a crumbling bridge The gas main was leaking As he was speaking Of a new enemy coming over the ridge Now I hold just one thing true I believe in me and you I dream of humanity Singing silent harmony I dream of you and me Singing silent harmony I dream of you and me Singing silent harmony

Billion of galaxies Trillions of stars All that stuff So very very far All alone in outer space All alone one tiny human race Spaceship Earth The only one we got Spaceship Earth is getting awfully hot No Planet B No magic dome No country road Gonna take us home We don't get no Frequent flyer miles For millions of Climate change denials Spaceship Earth The only one we got Spaceship Earth is getting awfully hot Spaceship Earth Our Planet A Our little home In the universe We can pretend And we can pray But there ain't no god Gonna hear our curse Spaceship Earth The only one we got Spaceship Earth is getting awfully hot

Spock Love 03:10
Live long and prosper said the man I will always be your friend We love you Spock said the fan We will join you in the end Beam me up Scotty now's the time To boldly go where no man climbs The needs of many outweigh the few Vulcans never bluff until they do So fascinating to me You see exactly what you want to see Emotions lose their power if you dare Insults only hurt if you care Danger lurks where facts are few Not logical but often true Wanting something stirs the soul Having it removes the goal One life mourned more than One million dead Without followers Evil cannot spread Live long and prosper said the man I will always be your friend We love you Spock said the fan We will join you in the end

A patriot, a zealot, a bigot and a fool Walk into a bar and sit on a stool Everybody knows there'll be trouble soon The boys are back at the Star Wars Saloon The patriot whispers "Give me a shot!" The zealot cries "Your god is not!" The bigot screams "I'm right! You're wrong!" The fool says "Can't we all just get along?" The bartender looks a little annoyed Tells D'an and the boys to play Pink Floyd They rock that tune Dark Side of the Moon It's Happy Hour at the Star Wars Saloon The patriot sings his national anthem "We are us and they are them" The zealot quotes from his holy book "They are bad and we are good" The bigot recites his manifesto "We are better than other people" The fool cheers for his hometown team And nobody agrees on one damn thing Maybe one day, maybe someday soon We'll find a friend at the Star Wars Saloon Another country, creed, and color Love each other like sister and brother Maybe one day, maybe someday soon We'll all hang out at the Star Wars Saloon Maybe one day, maybe someday soon We'll all hang out at the Star Wars Saloon

My body’s broke My mind is gone My soul has left this cement pond You took me from my momma And flew me to your world To be your slave and superstar Now my proud straight fin is curled You pulled me from my ocean And locked me in a pool Far from my home and family Far from your Golden Rule My body’s broke My mind is gone My soul has left this cement pond You took a son from his mom And called him Tilikum You tell them I love my trainers You say I’m happy and healthy You pretend I’m lucky to be here And your fantasy makes you wealthy The humans come to watch me Do tricks for my meal A circus clown they can see But can they know how I feel? My body’s broke My mind is gone My soul has left this cement pond You took a boy from his home And called him your own

Pour yourself a glass of wine Let me tell you the story Of Trader Joe's a store so fine You might say mandatory Hi Ho! Trader Joe Fearless Flyer Joe Coulombe Father of the store we love Thank you, your awesome! It all started back in '58 With Joe's LA Pronto Markets Ten more years we'd have to wait For his plan to come to harvest Joe sailed the blue Caribbean Exploring the exotic fare He thought it might be fun To bring back what he found there That Stanford man had a plan To create a place for us Overeducated underpaid workers on the bus A place with personality Hawaiian shirts and nautical props Welcome to the warm South Seas The fun place to shop! Hi Ho! Trader Joe Fearless Flyer Joe Coulombe Father of the store we love Thank you, your awesome! Joe opened his first TJ In the town of Pasadena On the old Arroyo Parkway For the rebel and the dreamer Pay your crew a living wage That's the secret, says Joe Keep them happy, says the sage You gotta lay out the dough Joe sold his invention To the gentleman named Theo Who carries on the intention Of our pioneering hero Now with 400 happy stores Joe's dream sails on strong And when you dance through those doors You'll be singing his song Hi Ho! Trader Joe Fearless Flyer Joe Coulombe Father of the store we love Thank you, your awesome! Hi Ho! Trader Joe Fearless Flyer Joe Coulombe Father of the store we love Thank you, your awesome! Hi Ho! Trader Joe Hi Ho! Trader Joe Hi Ho! Trader Joe

Underpants are fun They're the last thing you take off And first thing that you look for In the early morning sun Some underpants are tiny Some are a rather large But it really doesn’t matter When it comes to what they charge Underpants R Fun! If your underpants are tight And crawl into a crack You’re probably better off Rockin that ol' T-back Underpants on dogs Always make me smile They look much better nude But it gives 'em a little style Underpants R Fun! Underpants for gals A panty or a thong There's benefits to both But too many for this song Underpants for guys The boxer or the brief Real men don't wear nothing But a Calvin Kline fig leaf Underpants R Fun! Underpants are magic When they’re your sacred garmies Protecting your libido From a thousand charging armies Underpants R Fun! Underpants Oh No! Said the freebird to the question I go commando Don't like too much compression! Underpants R Fun! Now I could say a few more things About the underpants we wear But I think we understand by now Why we should all own a pair Because underpants R fun! Underpants R Fun! Underpants R Fun! Underpants R Fun! Underpants R Fun!
