Fake 03:05
I love fake things Gold and diamond rings The things that I wear Golden fur off a grizzly bear And all the things I want Are deep down inside These things are not real I'm taking a ride I'm an adult And I'm a little boy These things are but toys For my gentle mind I love fake things Money and all the glorious things The things that I eat Chocolate, paté and little kids' feet And all the things I want Are deep down inside These things are not real I'm taking a ride I'm an adult And I'm a little boy These things are but toys For my gentle mind

Love 03:14
My feelings are real feelings My love real love Summer of love Yes it was Rolling on the garden green You and me What a team Do you know what I mean The way things are Should always be We might even have to live in a treee We've got so much in common baby Maybe someday we will marry There's so much love in the world You can see it on your TV screen In South Africa El Salvador or Washington DC Democrats Republicans Libertarians too It's the summer of love '69, '87, '82

Papa Greg 03:28
Papa Greg won't take it no more He's grown tired of government man He's grown tired of the holy plan Papa Greg does not like it here Machinery man creates, destroys Where woman gives birth to goverment toys Papa Greg can see through this mess Flying by day, he sees the light Flying by day, flying by night Papa Greg is finding it hard to breathe As man cuts down all the trees And replaces them with smokestacks Higher are these!

Pave The Way 04:20
Look over yonder What do you see I see cities, factories I feel a pull, deep inside Towards the sun, to the sky I feel the earth under my feet I can hear my heart beat Now I know why I'm alive And I know that we will survive

Sunrise 04:45
With the birds flying over my head As they dive into the sea United we can destroy Babylon You and me and PJD must see The day we meet atop Mount Zion My home is life on Earth The Earth Man tries to turn into a machine He ain't gonna kick me out of my home We are caught in between A sick man's game which destroys the Earth These politicians have been dead from birth They are not in touch with what is inside I don't want anything except to be Just like the wise man they call Adin I can't turn my mind off, set me free I'd rather just give my head to the invisible wind

Rolls Royce Mercedes Benz Chevrolet General Motors Big house In the shade With an American flag You masturbate There's a stink in the air The smell of 3-piece suits that they wear They aren't me or my bass They are the killers of the human race As they dirve by the homeless In their fancy cars They agree with politicians The ones who are killing us And all the pigeons In the morning they wear thongs But they don't care about those nuclear bombs As they drive by the homeless In their fancy cars All the homeless living on the streets All the poor who were killed by police At the feet of rich businessmen they lay Staring at patent leather shoes and briefcases

Long forgotten summer In a long forgotten past Of adults who have problems And whose lives will never last Sold out all their values For three piece suits and ties Sold out all their values For ignorance and lies Present, past, Or future tense Life is a white Picket fence That guards the memories Of an adult's mind Memories of summers past Are so sublime I've got the earth under my feet There are no words to spell defeat There is no time to have or lend Because my summers will never end

Clock on the wall just sits I'd like to smash it to bits Please Mr. Businessman go away Please let me live my own way

Detonate 04:42
Things are falling down now I get so frustrated when I see There's nothing I can do We're all oppressed now Government lies through their teeth When the night shines They stand up on the moon and yell Detonate! Explode! You man think I'm crazy But I'm a human being not like you Violence is a fact Building bombs to keep the peace Hides the fact all they want to do is Detonate! Explode! Tying me up Bringing me down You won't compromise So set in your ways I am not a prisoner But that's a whole other thing Innocence and guilt mean nothing to me I see the sun rise It burns through your hatred It bursts through your disease Detonate! Explode!
