RISE UP

Rise up, come on and rise up
you know you need to rise up, come on people and rise up

People come on
rise up and take a stand
get your head out of the sand
the future’s ours at hand it can’t be bland, you know
it’s gotta be grand
this is your shot, don’t blow it
when times get tough do not quit
do what’s right and use your wit
or you just might as well split.

Rise up, come on and rise up, people rise up,
you know you need to rise up
humanity needs to rise up

People rise up, you see America is falling
it’s time to listen to your calling
no more stalling, or balling like a baby
time to get to the truth of the matter
don’t be like the mad hatter
and sit in silence.
The silence is defeating
the world is watching and needs to hear your voice
its time to make your choice
don’t need to be driving in a Rolls Royce
it’s time to rejoice
don’t wait until it’s too late
lets play it straight
and get this thing right.
Don’t be a divider be a unifier

Rise up, come on and rise up, rise up, America you need to rise up,
come on everyone and rise up.

The time has come to change the futures course
we don’t have to let things be
the way they are to be
nothings set in stone
this ain’t no time to suck on an ice cream cone
do what you need to do and let your mind be blown
spread your wings and see how far you’ve flown
it’s time to change history
like listening to the music of a great symphony
all the notes are in melody and harmony
lets all do our part and claim victory
were all in this together, we got this.

Rise up, people rise up, come on and rise up,
don’t wait until it’s too late, rise up, come on and rise up
now is the time to rise up

THE QUARENTINE BLUES

The time has come, the end of times
or so it seems
nothing is as it should be, everything has changed
what to do, what to do
were stuck at home
and singin’
the sick of being home quarantine blues.

Everything’s spotless clean
nothing left to organize
everything’s read, maybe it’s time to
bake some bread, but
I’ve gained 10 pounds and I need to hit the gym, but everything’s closed
and I’m at home
singin’ the sick of being home quarantine blues.

There’s nothing left to do
boredom has become a chore
I’m bored at being bored
there’s no work, can’t get paid
I’m losing everything
I can’t get out cause I’m in lock down and
I’m singin’
the sick of being home quarantine blues

The quarantine blues
the quarantine blues
the quarantine blues

I’m out of options
what else could I do? Anything at all?
Help me please! help me please! I’m losin’ it.
listen to the trees
swaying in the breeze
come on baby run with me
lets run!
But there’s no where to run to,
no where to hide, and no where to go
I’m stuck at home singin’
the sick of being home quarantine blues.

la da da, la da da, la da da,
la da da, la da da, ladi da ladi da
ladi da ladia da , da, da
mmmmm
the quarantine blues

Today is a new day
It’s time to try and find some new toys to play
time is speeding up, yet every moment ticks by so slowly
what could I do?
How to pass the time?
I could
masturbate
ejaculate
communicate
commiserate
go fly a kite,
ride a bike
concentrate
check my prostate
educate
translate
read up on water gate
were living it now
the past is the present
and the future the past.

Oh yeah
la di da, la di da, la da da, la da
mmmmmm
singing the quarantine blues

oooooh
I have a headache,
time to deescalate,
fornacate,
look for real estate
get some bait
I need an escape,
Stop!
Enough!
somethings gotta give
I’m sick and tired of being home, singin’
the quarantine blues.

Is there hope?
There’s always hope
Were opening back up
but will there be a price to pay?
I don’t wanna pay that price.
To mask or not to mask that is the question
same question as before but different
to be or not to be.
Don’t wanna go backwards, always move forward
adjust and adapt, act but
don’t react
be smart and vigiliant
we don’t want to be stuck again
and sick of being home doin nothin except singin’
the quarantine blues.
