Desolenator

VERSE

C                                            F                   C

Water water everywhere but most not fit to drink

C                                                              F                      C

When most of the world is covered by water, d'ya ever stop to think?

By 2030 half of humanity will struggle for a water source

Ironic that rising sea levels will only make it worse

VERSE

Poor people are walking miles every single day

For a few litres of stagnant water, disease and dysentery

Or living at the mercy of the tanker man, but change their lives we can

By purifying local water the power's in their hands

CHORUS

MIDDLE (Same chords as middle part of Verse)

You want water that's pure and clean, so you buy it in bottles

But it's absorbed the biphenyls and other cruel potentials

G

VERSE

You pay more for bottled water, and so does the earth

10 million joules of fossil fuels go into every litre

Compare this to your tap water that's 2000 times cheaper

Are you one of the enlightened one, who know the price is steeper?

Hook Point

VERSE 
G                             Em                       C                G

In our three-second world, people are scrolling so fast 

G                       Em                       C                D

I had your attention but in a moment it passed 

Most people's ads aren’t clever and their message gets lost 

Connect with your audience to get yours across

CHORUS

                                      C                 

That's why you need a hook point

A headline like a setpoint

That reaches out and pulls your reader in

Gotta have a hook point

Or you'll only disappoint

Yourself and your viewers and your friends

VERSE

We're seeing thousands of messages every hour of every day

But stand out with a twist by changing just a small way

Like the writer who added four words to an old beggar's sign:

G       C               Em     G

"It is spring but - I am blind"

CHORUS

One Free Miracle

68 BPM

VERSE

C                                                             Em

Centuries of science, have given us the answers

We know matter's unconscious

We can show evolution's purposeless

C                          D

The only reality's material reality

There's just one part that's hazy, that bit at the beginning

How all mass and energy, came into being

And the laws that govern all of existence

Appeared at once, in a single instant, from nothing...

We just need

CHORUS

 G     F#      Em                                 

One free miracle

      C                    D

The B part of the Bang

Give us this one free miracle

For our theories to hang

Only this one free miracle

We can explain the rest

We need just one free miracle

All else we can test

VERSE

We're all on the same page, from Dawkin to Hawking

Intellectual phase-locking 

Fundamental constants, must never change

We average results out so they stay the same

Ditto to the dark stuff, we add and subtract

"Conservation of energy" must remain intact

Science is settled, without an almighty

So now we restrict, the areas of enquiry

To the details

CHORUS

MIDDLE

Am                     G

Nature is mechanistic

F                                              C

Unexplained phenomenons are illusory

Get it through your head - your mind's in your body

Biological inheritance is only through your genes

This is our chance we’re going to take it

Built cities out of sand, turn the seas into the land
This is how we’re going to make it

And we’ll live it up fast, while the good times last

No one's going to stop me baby

F

CHORUS

VERSE
The other said no, put it away
Save it up for a rainy day

Keep the day job, put it in savings

Sometimes it's best not to grow

Arab Tyrant Manual

VERSE

At midnight now I'm making this speech

About this crazy situation and decisions I've reached

Bf                                                   F

Cos I'm the man... to take things in hand

It's terrorists and feudalists causing all this

It's a trial for survival 'gainst separatists

And their sympathisers... they want to divide us

Have you seen the demonstrations in support of me?

These people see through the conspiracies

Run by foreign agencies... who started the prison fires

CHORUS

C                          Bf

Cos I remain defiant

                              F

They call me a tyrant

VERSE

You know the media's deceiving ya distorting truth

Left-wing anarchists excite youth

So I'm closing 'em down... and the social networks

Listen to the Minister of Information

He's got a grasp of the situation

And about the Minister of Defence? ... well he over-reacted

From days to nights, to wrongs to rights

Increase for peace plain-clothed police

And prisoners.... we had to release

CHORUS

MIDDLE

C

It's just a handful of people, plotting against me

Bf

The majority agree I bring stability

I beseech the protesters, put away your knives 

Think of ordinary people, you're disrupting their lives

See hardship and out of control conditions

Like the fire in prison that killed opposition

And have you forgotten so quickly 'bout the last revolution?

How I came through with a coup and cleansing executions

I'm sorry if I'm get emotional but it's just so hard

Cos I served so long, standing guard... alone

VERSE

I'd no idea how bad things were I'm sorry... OK?

I'm making reforms that will blow you away

I have the perfect solution... it's going back to constitution

Elections are coming so hold your desire

I am not running, I'm about to retire

And I.... only served out of love

Sit down, relax, watch pretty parade

Of military might and many weapons I've saved

They are ready... are you ready?

CHORUS

OUTRO

So go on home peacefully, back to bed

Take thoughts of revolution out of your head

Oh and one thing... before I forget

Switch off the internet

The one energy 

which powers the sun 

In its journey through space

                  C                            G

Makes the heart of small man beat

The same energy 

which is used by divine essence

Becomes all that's manifested

Makes the small man's     heart beat

The same energy 

which holds a million worlds

In the vastness of space   

makes small man's heart beat

CHORUS

                               Em          

If you go into this heart

                                              C

And use this most wonderful energy

Em                           F#/D                G

You can contact the vastness of all things

VERSE

The light 

Which in invisibility 

Travels through all space and time

Is the same light which 

shineth In small man's soul

The light 

Which coming before a sun 

Doth light that

Is the same light which 

shineth in small man's soul

The light 

Which travelling through a million worlds From the heart 

of the divine essence is the same light which 

shineth in small man's soul

CHORUS

Go within, contact this light

And extend through space and timelessness

To that dimension where dwelleth unmodified peace

OUTRO

                Am           C           Em            

When you stand oh man, as man

Am          C               Em

In the hall of judgement

Am                                 

You look upon this love energy

E     m

This light energy

C

And see your failings

              Am                       C                           Em

And in mercy go into that river wherein you fell

Here's the tale of our stale indie music

F

Speaking to you like this is very therapeutic

Nobody buys CDs, they're only streaming

Fractions of cents are all I get for dreaming

One day perhaps I'll make it on a proper playlist

Glad you like my music, will you join my mailing list

I am glad you like my music, will you join my mailing list

I joined Band Builder, I'm in Todd's Academy

I got the secrets of the big label strategies

I play for algorithms, write for AIs

I'm on a left brain, right brain, strategem

I watch the metrics, got a box of tricks to enlist

Glad you like my music, will you join my mailing list

[Lead solo]

I'm glad you like my music, will you join my mailing list

[Lead solo]

Let's keep in touch now, and be like real friends 

I’ll be the annoying one, who's goes on 'bout what’s going on with them 

Don't be shy though my lyrical prowess is scary

The secret is I use a rhyming dictionary

I've got a podcast now with songs about the guests that's the twist

You've heard the music, now sign up to the mailing list

[Lead solo]

I'm glad you like my music, will join my mailing list

Even if you die, you'll stay on my mailing list

[Lead solo]

Even on the astral, you'll be on my mailing list

[Lead solo]

I need your email cos my posts won't win a Grammy

My social media anemia's a tragedia

I have to pay Facebook to get it to remind you I exist

I'm glad you like my music, will you join my mailing list

Happy Habits

G                                          C

Throw your television out of the window

G                                     D

Replace it with flowers or something that grows

Pay other people to do the cleaning you hate

Get out of the house and spend time with your mates

G                     C                    D

Happy habits, reprogramme your day

Happy habits, blow your blues away

Happy habits, are some simple tricks
Happy habits, to make your good moods stick

 

Learn a new skill it can be anything

Paint a picture or do colouring

Exercise and then stand on your head 

Cheer yourself up  by freshly baking bread

Happy habits, reprogramme your day

Happy habits, blow your blues away

Happy habits, are some simple tricks
Happy habits, to make your good moods stick

 

Stop with the texting and have real conversations

Practice compassion and forgive your relations

Save for a trip that’ll be good for your soul

Focus your sights on a single life goal

 

Happy habits, reprogramme your day

Happy habits, blow your blues away

Happy habits, are some simple tricks
Happy habits, to make your good moods stick

[Quiet bit]

Meditate in the morning, Before you check your phone

Have fun days out with happy friends, Then quiet ones alone 

Keep a journal and count your blessings

Make them rhyme and you'll feel even happier

Happy habits, reprogramme your day

Happy habits, blow your blues away

Happy habits, are some simple tricks
Happy habits, to make your good moods stick

LYRICS:

The Prison of Materialism

VERSE
Fm
It's stitched into the sitcoms
It's sewn into the news
Bfm
Twisted in the movies
It underwrites your views

It underwrites your views
Fm
Pumped in by the television
Reinforced in school
Bfm
Seeps into your every hole, 
But your nobody's fool?
 
BRIDGE
Cm
It permeates and advocates
Corroborates we're separates
 
Bfm
Venerates-our-physical-traits-while-vindicating-violent-states
 
Cm
Perpetuates subordinates
Implicates we're primates
 
Culminates in selfish hate
That enumerates & exterminates
 
CHORUS
Bfm
Oh no, they’re selling you a prison
Cm
Don’t buy the lie of materialism

 
VERSE
It’s been cunningly conceived 
And slyly concealed
Dripped into your consciousness
Now it has congealed
 
You're just purely physical
You're a piece of meat
Who cares if I beat you
Or emotionally mistreat you
 
BRIDGE
Soul starvation, strangulation
Spiritual castration
 
Secularize-sexualise-glamourise-with-vacant-lies
Temptation and gratification
Physical adoration
 
Sedation of civilization
Societal transmogrification
 
CHORUS

 
VERSE
They're happy you're confused
They feed upon your fear
Suck up all your feelings
They’re always very near
 
You’re just a little pawn
Putty in their hands
Moving information
As they whisper their commands
 
BRIDGE
Preaching the dualities
Physical realities
 
With-distorted-moralities-for-limited-mentalities
 
Contorted tonalities
Temporal modalities
Separate nationalities
For global criminalities
CHORUS
