Burn & Turn 01:27
Burn, we're gonna burn it down, and turn, turn it around from everywhere, people are arising for we all agree, that the current affair's a misery soon the truth will be arivin' change is on it's way, no need to hope no need to pray together we will find a way to save our home, this planet is all our home and it's the only one we've got the true war, is for survival, the only one that needs to be fought to save our home burn, burn the system down, and turn, turn the ship around, the ordinary people are arising

Ordinary Guy 02:36
I'm just an ordinary guy, sitting in my basement getting high writing bout' the apocalypse, and makin' fun of racist hicks o-oh-ho Donald, your haircut isn't foolin' anyone worst president under the sun, watching the world burn, little Nero! O-oh the other one, you are the lesser(evil) I guess you got my blessing sir(after you win please drop dead, thank you!) Evolution is the only way, to survive capitalism's gonna have to die Revolution is the American way(or so they say!) it's time to make these mother frackers pay(their fair share of taxes) and we'll do it today, and we'll do it today, today, today I'm just an ordinary guy, sitting on my front porch gettin' high and I know these cops are murderers what the hell are you defending em' for(fer) how many more good people have to die? before some of these racist fuckers fry? and how much more of this are we gonna stand before we rise as one and issue our demands we are the 99, and we won't stay in line we are the 99, and we know you're lying! we're just ordinary guys... (and lady guys)

Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon gonna be a good show, don'tchya wanna know, how it all ends, my friends Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon flyin' on a ball of dirt, around a giant ball of fire in a sea of giant balls of fire swirlin' round a black hole Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon & while we're waitin' hesitatin', we probably still have time to get our shit together but we probably won't cause we'll just keep partying n' throwin' our party cups in the river to fill the ocean with plastic Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon drivin' so fast we'll probably crash into another planet & wind up on our ass with a big ole' hospital bill cause it's a third world planet where the rich don't pay their taxes Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon fightin' over all a' tha same stupid shit we've been fightin' bout' for thousands of years, well isn't it clear? that nobody's got all the answers & we should all just give each other a break, and also give ourselves one too Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon and all the animals already know that Armageddon's already here and it's name is man, or woman, or human bein', and they prolly think we're all pretty mean, so let's go green Here we all are, awaitin' Armageddon gonna be a good show dont'chya wanna know how it all ends my friends can I say no?

We thought 67 West Abando, could be the promised land we had all we could handle, more than we could stand when somebody said, I know a place just down the road where the rent is free and the landlord is a son of a gun, who looks just like me don't you mess with my radio, keep off the grass, live life slow We drove that 67 Westabando as far as we could till it broke down in a rusty dusty, slightly charred neighborhood in a half abandoned city, that we love so well and if you've got a moment or two, I'd like to tell you stay true to your word and mean what you say if you're a liar or a thief, you'd better pray(we don't burn you out too) We thought 67 West Abando, could be the promised land

My Friend O 02:59
this is the story of my friend-o grew up a little while ago  in the town of fargo we're gonna have to get back to that doe cause now it's time for ddot to interrupt this flow yes thanks joe I'm ddot, I grew up next doe went to the school of hard knocks y'know many tried to fight me many didn't like me all I got to say to that is what's up bite me cause I'm not a blood I'm not a crip now light that fire weed & let it rip but that fireweed thing is a whole nother rap please don't you distract me fore your hand ima slap cause we're not talking about those earth truckas allow me to concentrate on another rakemucka  fast forward a decade or maybe two,  when a trippy wierdo happened on this crew  he looked kinda white but he was really blue wasn't quite as tough but had been through some shit too Oh I bet you thought I was talkin' bout shane,  there you go distracting me again no I'm talkin' bout that quaker up down from fargo that shane cat was somethin' else he came from a star tho nah this cat owen he wouldn't shut up I honestly tried to tell him what was what Finally had to slap him around but he wouldn't fight back  kinda turned it around made me look like I was one who was wrong, when it really was him all along cause I swear he's queer as a three dollar bill but you can't teach him cause he won't sit still and slapping him doesn't do much either, send him to the corner and he'll just distract all the other weirdos who find your lesson boring and would otherwise be snoring  but anyway where was I back to the story oh wait there isn't one I'm terribly sorry this cat didn't do much just sat around, walked his dog  occasionally sang a song they say he used to be pretty good at art I aint seen much of that tho I call him art fart a bit like another cat some folks call byron hello yes I'm byron don't catch me rhymin cause Im another crazy cracker truth sayer  if I lived in detroit I'd say vote for me for mayor  cause these crooked politicians who got you hooked on hopes & dreams really wanna wrap you up in another ponzi scheme but lemme pass it back to the first guy tho I think I heard ddot call him joe yes I am joe and I'm here on the scene,  actually I got an L in there, those guys are kinda mean  or maybe they just didn't hear me we're all going deaf listen' to trump & hillary  i think we started off bout Owen doe I'd pass it back to him but he's not talkin' anymoe & that puts me in an awkward spot,  but I'll leave you with a thing or two that I just thought all this yelling is quite insane all this fighting hurts my brain if we could all just get along,  it would make for a much better song  let's sing sing sing sing, forget that cat from fargo, still see him at the bar tho sing sing sing sing breath, live & see what, tomorrow brings

All I know 01:56
There's a murderer inside my head and every day he wants me dead and there's a nurse and a doctor too, struggling to heal my wounds and two lawyers arguing, one a joker one a king and something above it all, that I don't know what to call I've been up and I've been down, while this ole' world turns around I don't know much truth be told, but my spirit it is bold all that I know, is that I don't know, nothing, nothing that aint been known before all I can say, is that I can't say, nothing nothing that aint been said before

Not Alone 02:06
Sometimes I'm so confused, need someone to set me straight I've got a lot to lose, I hope it's not to late for me everything is upside down, whole world needs to turn around situation's got me down, keep listening for the sound of the spirit talking to me, ghosts tryna move me devil tryina fool me, god tryna school me and I try to remember that i'm not alone! and this whole world is my home, for now and I can always keep growing, till I'm just a box of bones

Sometimes your best, just ain't good enough chained to your own mediocrity sometimes your best, just ain't good enough and you don't find yourself such pleasant company sometimes your best, just ain't good enough all you can do is wait and see some say the lord, some say the lady have pity spare me from my misery I can sing you a song, try to keep you entertained I can sculpt you a little gnome to remind you of me when I'm gone but if you think that I'm not worthy, don't look for me I'll be long gone (yes I realize I rhymed gone with gone... & I literally JUST realized I could have rhymed it with "I'll be movin' on" lol... whaddayagonnado) cause sometimes your best, just ain't good enough sometimes your just not worthy so pretty young lord, handsome young lady drop a coin in my cup, I'll keep myself company & maybe they just didn't love me maybe I'm a shitty human being if it'll save any time I'll just plead guilty but if you want the truth just wait and see it takes a long time but it's worth the wait it takes a long time some wait for years it takes a long time some say forever cause we all serve on god's jury and sometimes your best just ain't good enough and your guitar playing's bad beyond belief sometimes your best, just ain't good enough sometimes your just not worthy

well I've weathered many storms, long before you were born I've sailed the seven seas, and I've seen my seven souls I've been a monster too, like the one that lives inside of you no one can be an angel all the time don't ask me what you should do, it's up to you I don't have a clue but I believe that you will find your own way and I know you'll make it through, all your little storms too life will polish all your rough edges some day well I've been to the top, of the rocky outcrops and all the lowest valleys of my mind I've wandered through the deserts, of loneliness and pain and drunk the healing waters of time Listened to the song of the birds, seen things I can't put in words felt the spirits flow, inside of me wandered so near and far, wished upon many stars that I could grow to be rooted like a tree well I weathered many storms, I'm weary and I'm worn when it comes the day for me to pass away I hope you take some comfort in my song I know you'll make it through, all your little storms too life will polish all your rough edges some day

I've been alert and punctual, I've been alert and punctual!

about

Special un-thanks to the Detroit Police officers who stole my phone at a protest... thanks to them such (possible?) classics as "The Patron St. of the Mild to Medium Mushroom Dose for Human Beings (but not for cats)" and "Yowling Toad Blatantly Rips off Howling Wolf for 12 Minutes" will go unappreciated by my 5 followers. All proceeds from this album will go to The National Lawyer's Guild Detroit/MI Chapter and Detroit Will Breath. Special thanks to Sweat Enzo for giving me the guitar hero mic that was used to record most of these tracks. Special Thanks to The Abominable Catz for sending me this previously unreleased version of Midwest Monster starring yours truly. The initial concept for the album was to be a collaboration with Dylan "Hazy Breakfast" Beckwith, ergo the title. Alas this was not to come to fruition, but I heartily recommend his album "Zoinks! Bubble and Squeak" which can be found on Youtube... truly an experience for the ages! Special thanks to you for listening to my demos, feel free to let me know what you think, and have a great life! Also, we need a revolution Johnson!
