Top Song Lyrics
Today's music is so corporate and refined that we rarely find original lyrics that come from the heart. So why am I posting some of the most earth shattering lyrics ever created for all to see?
It's simple really. I want to share my vision with others and allow them to build on the foundation that I have created. It's called interactive art (again a concept ahead of its time)
Thus far, I have heard just about every musical style represent these magical lyrics, yet I'm still searching for the right flow and texture to really represent this masterpiece.
Here are the rules:
1. You can use the lyrics as your own, but you must send me an e-mail with your musical creation/adaptation when you are done.
2. No tolerance for weak performances. You either bring it or get blasted by me, the K-I-N-G!
3. View lyrics at your own risk. I learned early on that I need to make people aware that these lyrics are so profound, that they be UNSAFE for people with heart problems. Please, I urge you to clear this with your physician before reading the most innovative lines of the past 12 years.

A paragraph for the pessimists
Do you have the plums to look into the distance?
And now...the next generation's anthem
Halloween squash going two by two, American dinosaur in my head and I got a lot left to do, it's time to prowl like the 4th of July, night time's coming and I think I'll get by, it's time for these things to come out, if I could only see the trees, like lifting weights in my bed and I can't feel the breeze
Brain weights pushing down, it's just about to crack, gotta get more paper till I'm long forgotten, prefer to be alone and out of the rush, bongos twice a day with a lemon twist, pistons fire out of sequence but it still runs, like a shovel on the fence the job is almost done
Monongahela gonna suck us in (suck us in)
Back to prime and water feels good
We knew this would come, now it's already here
A sweet time for coming home (home)
Yeah, sweet time for coming home
Peace and fine peppers let the storm lay doubt, don't freak about the mud cause the stains come right out, genius and crazy ain't too far apart on the globe of sanity they can almost touch, like a river we all need to keep moving on, our ears are too big and our mouths are dry, livin in the city it's do or die, another statistic in the dome and it's falling apart and the cord is getting tangled, gonna bleed it out
Monongahela gonna suck us in (suck us in)
Back to prime and water feels good
We knew this would come, now it's already here
A sweet time for coming home (home)
Yeah sweet time for coming home
When the quench is lifted and the air is clear, the mountains fall on us and we have no fear, if they say this when the wood is green, then what when it's dry, the pets of our parents are now tube tied, like photos of the past we make no changes, progress is seized by the time it all rearranges, when the smoke clears everybody is so smart, but just a week ago you said I was loco, too fast to go, not enough dough, now it's like a joke, too bummed-it's smoked
Monongahela gonna suck us in (suck us in)
Back to prime and water feels good
We knew this would come, now it's already here
A sweet time for coming home (home)
Yeah sweet time for coming home

- not exactly jingly, if you know what I mean. No 'Do Whops' or 'ohhh baby!' Nice prose - it's very poetic. I like the imagery. What's a Monongahela?

- Monongahela is open for interpretation. I prefer the readers to think of it as less of a river in Pittsburgh and more of an invitation to express themselves emotionally.
