"Another Life"
Well, I could be wrong
But I swear that I knew you
In another life
And I could be dreaming
But I swear that I knew you
In another life
Something happened just the other night
I had a vision in the middle of a daydream
In a place I'd never been before
I couldn't tell if I was still awake or sleeping
I saw so many things I barely recognized
I thought that I was lost but then I saw you
Well, I could be wrong
But I swear that I knew you
In another life
And I could be dreaming
But I swear that I knew you
In another life
Certain things affect me certain ways
And this isn't just the first time that it's crossed my mind
Something happens and the crystal clears
And you begin to recognize all of the little signs
I wish that I could place every little gesture
But it really doesn't matter 'cause we'll never know
"The Wheel"
Some people say life's like a merry-go-round
I think it's more like a Ferris wheel
'Cause sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down
Sometimes you just don't know what to feel
And just when you think you've got the game figured out
And you say you've had enough
The mysterious mad man with his hand on the lever
Don't seem to never ever want to let you off
You can't get off this wheel of karma
You can't stop the hands of time
You can't get off this wheel of karma
You can't stop the hands of time
Now I have a friend, I might have a few
Sometimes I think they just don't care
But I think sometimes they think the same thing of me, yeah yeah yeah
You might say we've got a problem there
'Cause you know we all got this habit we like to talk too much
And that always tends to slow you down
But we never change direction, no no no no
We just keep going round and round and round and round
And let me off this wheel of karma
Let me stop the hands of time
Let me off this wheel of karma
Let me stop the hands, stop the hands of time
Seems like I've been around, yeah yeah yeah, so many places yeah yeah
And I must have learned a lot of things
And although I ain't yet come up with a so-called answer
At least I think I finally learned how to sing
And there's just a few things I ain't got sorted out
Sometimes they make my brain get sore
Like if kids were left of all devices, yeah yeah yeah
Would they ever come up with a thing like war
Let us off this wheel of karma
Let us stop the hands, stop the hands of time
Let us off this wheel of karma
Let us stop the hands, stop the hands of time
Let us off (let us off) this wheel of karma (this wheel of karma)
Let us stop (let us stop) the hands of time (the hands of time)
Let us off (let us off) this wheel of karma (this wheel of karma)

Let us stop (let us stop) the hands of time (the hands of time)
Let us off (let us off) this wheel of karma (this wheel of karma)
Let us stop the hands (let us stop) stop the hands, the hands of time now (the hands of time)
Let us off (let us off) this wheel of karma, yeah (this wheel of karma)
Let us stop (let us stop) the hands of time (the hands of time)
Let us off (let us off) this wheel of karma (this wheel of karma)
Let us stop (let us stop) the hands of time (the hands of time)

Let us stop the hands, stop the hands now, stop the hands, hands of time
Let us off this wheel of karma, yeah
Let us stop the hands of time
Let us off this wheel of karma
Let us stop the hands, stop the hands of time yeah yeah

Let us stop, let us stop the hands of time
Let us off this wheel of karma yeah
Let us stop the hands of time, sounding good
Let us off this wheel of karma
Let us stop the hands of time
Let us off this wheel of karma
Let us stop
"The Seven Rays"
My great grandfather was a satisfied man
Contented in every way
Such was the course of his everyday life
'Til he heard of the seven rays
'Til he heard of the seven rays
'Til he heard
Every modern man, in the back of his mind
Has a problem to face
He wants security for the home in his head
All he needs is the seven rays
All he needs is the seven rays
All he needs
And when you think about tomorrow
What goes through your mind?
Now don't nobody get uptight
Do you think that we can put up
With this shit one more night
All you need is the six more rays
All you need is the six more rays
All you need
Take one beam of light
Prism acquire
Break the white light down
Seven rays appear, seven rays appear
One: red, the ruler seeking freedom
Two: gold, the father seeking unity
Three: orange, the thinker seeking understanding
Four: yellow, the poet seeking harmony
Take the seven rays
Pure as fire
Focus anywhere
White light will appear, white light will appear
Five: green, the scientist seeking truth
Six: blue, the disciple seeking goodness
Seven: indigo, the artist seeking beauty
One: freedom
Two: beauty
Three: understanding
Four: harmony
Five: truth
Six: goodness
Seven: beauty
This may sound like a bunch of trumped up words
But we keep no secrets today
The only hope for you is in your brothers, my friend
All you need is just six more rays
All we need is the seven rays
All we need is the seven rays
All we need is the seven rays
All we need
All we need
All we need

"Something's Coming"
(originally by Larry Kert)
Could be! Who knows?
There's something due any day
I will know right away soon as it shows
It may come cannonballin' down through the sky
Gleam in it's eye, bright as a rose!
Who knows?
It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Under a tree
I got a feeling there's a miracle due
Gonna come true, coming to me!
Could it be? Yes it could
Something's coming, something good
If I can wait!
Something's coming, I don't know what it is
But it is gonna be great!
With a click, with a shock
Phone will jingle, door will knock
Open the latch!
Something's coming, don't know when, but it's soon
Catch the moon - one-handed catch!
Around the corner or whistling down the river
Come on, deliver to me!
Will it be? Yes it will
Maybe just by holding still
It'll be there!
Come on something, come on in, don't be shy
Meet a guy
Pull up a chair!
The air is humming
And something good is coming!
Who knows?
It's only just out of reach
Down the block, on a beach
Maybe tonight
"Heavy Metal Kids"
It's like a normal Times Square day on 42nd Street
I feel like trashing some windows and crunching some feet
I watch society crumble and I just laugh (hee hee hee hee)
They soon will see what it's like to be the other half
But I'm trying, said I'm trying to forget
And it ain't happened yet, no it ain't happened yet
I musta woke up this morning with a bug up my ass
I think I'll just haul off and belt the next jerk that I pass
My old man says I'm just a stoned little punk
But he keeps himself a pistol and he's always drunk
But I'm trying, said I'm trying to forget
Said I'm trying to forget and it ain't happened yet
No it ain't happened yet
I know something's gonna give pretty soon
I know that something's gonna give, gonna give, gonna give, gonna give
I wanna live
I wanna mess this whole world around
I wanna live
I wanna mess this whole world, mess this whole world around
Go on poison all the water, use up all the air
Blow your stupid heads off, see if I could care
Put me down but don't blame me for what you did
'Cause inside everyone is a heavy metal kid
I was a sweet little kid once now I'm a full grown crank
And when I die I'll probably come back as a Sherman tank
I know that I could make this world so peaceful and calm
If I could only get my hands on a hydrogen bomb
But I'm trying, said I'm trying to forget
And it ain't happened yet
No it ain't happened yet
I know something's gonna give pretty soon
I know that something's gonna give, gonna give, gonna give, gonna give
I wanna live
I wanna mess this whole world around
I wanna live
I wanna mess this whole world, oh
Go on and poison all the water, use up all the air
Blow your stupid heads off, see if I could care
Put me down but don't blame me for what you did
'Cause inside everyone is a heavy metal kid
"Do Ya"
(originally by The Move)
In this life I've seen everything I can see, woman
I've seen lovers flying through the air hand in hand
I've seen babies dancing in the midnight sun
And I've seen sweet dreams that came from the heavenly skies above
I've seen old ladies crying at their own grave sides
And I've seen pigs all sitting, watching picture slides
But I've never seen nothing like you
Do ya, do ya want my love?
Do ya, do ya want my love?
(Come get it)
Do ya, do ya want my face?
(And I'm saying)
Do ya, do ya want my mind?
Well, I heard the choir singin' out of tune
As they sang "Auld Lang Syne" by the light of the moon
And I heard the preacher bangin' on the drum
But I've never heard nothin' like you
In the country, where the sky touches down on the field
You lay her down to rest in the morning sun
They come a-running just to get a look, just to feel
To touch your long black hair, they don't give a damn
Do ya, do ya want my love?
(I need it)
Do ya, do ya want my love?
Do ya, do ya want my face?
Do ya, do ya want my mind?
Well, I think you understand what I'm trying to say, woman
That is, I'd like to save you for a rainy day
I've seen enough of the world to know, baby
That I've got to get it all to get it all tomorrow
Do ya, do ya want my love?
Do ya, do ya want my love?
(I need it)
Do ya, do ya want my face?
(I'm saying)
Do ya, do ya want my mind?
Now do ya, do ya want my love?
Do ya, do ya want my love?
Do ya, do ya want my face?
(Ain't gonna get it)
Do ya, do ya want my mind?
Do ya, do ya want my love?
(And I'm singing)
Do ya, do ya want my love?
"Just One Victory"
We've been waiting so long
We've been waiting so long
We've been waiting for the sun to rise and shine
Shining still to give us the will
Can you hear me, the sound of my voice?
I am here to tell you I have made my choice
I've been listening to what's been going down
There's just too much talk and gossip going 'round
You may think that I'm a fool, but I know the answer
Words become a tool, anyone can use them
Take the golden rule as the best example
Eyes that have seen will know what I mean
The time has come to take the bull by the horns
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
We've been so downhearted, we've been so forlorn
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
We get weak and we want to give in
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
But we still need each other if we want to win
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
If you don't know what to do about a world of trouble
You can pull it through if you need to and if
You believe it's true, it will surely happen
Shining still, to give us the will
We've been waiting for the sun to rise and shine
Shining still to give us the will
Bright as the day, to show us the way
Talkin' 'bout somehow, someday
We need just one victory and we're on our way
Ah, we've been prayin' for it all day and we're fightin' for it all night
Give us just one victory, it will be all right
We may feel about to fall but we go down fighting
You will hear the call if you only listen
Underneath it all we are here together
Shining still to give us the will
Now bright as the day, to show us the way
Yeah yeah yeah, someday
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
Give us just one victory and we're on our way
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
We've been prayin' for it all day and fightin' for it all night
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
Give us just one victory, and don't ya know it's gonne be all right
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
Prayin' for it all day
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
Prayin' for it all night now
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
With just one victory
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
Give us just one victory
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
Woo hoo hoo
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
Give us just one victory
(Hold that line, baby hold that line, get up boys and hit 'em one more time)
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
(We may be losing now but we can't stop trying, so hold that line, baby hold that line)
(Somehow, someday)
(Give us just one victory and we're on our way)
(Prayin' for it all day, fightin' for it all night)
(Give us just one victory, it will be all right, all right)
(Somehow, someday)
(Just one victory, on our way)
(Prayin' for it all day, fightin' for it all night)
(Give us just one victory, it will be all right)
Good night everybody, thank you
