The Believer

(I tried playing this one earlier today, but I can't remember the chords for it. Again an old one, but I still like it. Not at T3 song by a long shot.)

Good morning, it’s nice to see you again

How long has it been? Far too long for me

I wish I could just pretend this isn’t the end

That our lives are still the same

I want you to stay

I want you to believe

The thoughts of yesterday

Slowly fade to gray

I’ll never change

The memories, bittersweet in my mind

They show a better life gone by

I know today is a new day full of change

Ill never be the same

I want you to stay

I want you to believe

The thoughts of yesterday

Slowly fade to gray

I’ll never change

I want you to stay

I need you to believe

And the battles we have fought together

Won’t ever fade away

Today is a new day, bright and gray

Have you forgotten what we’ve been through?

The promises we made may have been broken

But I’ll still hold them the same

I want you to stay

I need you to believe

The thoughts of yesterday

I hold up high today

Oh please wont you to stay

I choose to still believe

The battles we have fought together

Were never fought in vain

I’ll always be the same

Excuses, Excuses

(an old one but one of my favs)
You wake up in the morning

Think it’s a brand new day

Nothing could go wrong now

Nothing stands in your way

You won’t see us coming, so you best start your running

You hear a knock at the door

Walk and smile now gleamin

Slowly pull it open

Bout to start the screamin

You wont see it comin, Too late to start runnin

Cuz we’re zombies….oooooo

Brains brains brains brains

Tasty little

Brains brains brains brains

Wanna eat yo

Brains brains brains brains…..

You start to hear the sirens

There’s nothing to be done

Don’t you start to panic

It ruins all our fun

You never saw it commin, on the tv its been running

Cities reduced to rubble

No more power to see

The horde is now growin

In small groups you now flee

No matter where you look now

We won’t be far behind

Groups dwindle down to nothing

And we won’t be so kind

The end of the world is coming, No more time for yo lovin

Now you see the situation

Why I won’t sit n cuddle

Time is now a waistin

Go ahead in this put your faith in

What I’ve said it is true, That’s why I won’t call you

It Bares Repeating

A simple thought has occurred to me lately when a little bit of history is tending to repeat itself. I just find it both ironic and sad when its something stupid such as what happened yesterday.

Lets go back a bit tho, all throughout college I had a vast amount of roommates and I always tried my best to get along and even be friendly with all of them. My senior year I was busy with everything that was going on and finally had a private room instead of sharing one with somebody, so I decided that if I didn't initially hit it off with somebody I would just mind my own business and do my own thing and not worry about it. Well a couple of my roommates were a little douchy, one in particular, so I just kinda shrugged him off. I wasn't ever really rude to him but I wasn't really super friendly either. I just sort of did my own thing. Said hello and kept on walking kind of thing. Well one evening he came home in a particularly foul mood and blew up at me spouting many reasons why he didn't really care for me. One in particular is that I was never pleasant to him as he said. That he tried to befriend me but it seemed that I wouldn't have it. So bottom line is that he essentially got pissed at me because I wasn't his friend. Yeah... is this something that I through would ever be repeated? Nope, but did it? Yep.

I'm currently in my final week of my current job and I've taken a dislike to one of my coworkers so I've implemented the same technique of just doing my thing, being polite, but doing my own thing. Well apparently she'll have none of that. I was off all weekend while she was working while she was off Monday and today. I guess she just assumed I was already done and not coming back because I came back to work on Monday to hear a flurry of things that she had apparently being saying about me behind my back over the weekend and accusing me of. What did I ever really do to her? I guess I just wasn't her friend so she disliked me just like everyone else who works there who isn't bestest friends with her. Honestly... some people are just silly.

Bovine Revolution

There is a problem in the world today

Folks are too rigid and stuck in their way

People have to learn to smile and cut loose

Ya gotta feel good relax its true

The time has come and

Don’t just stand there

Toss out your shame friend

Its time to dance here

Hey hey

You’ve gotta shake it shake it shake it shake it all out

Hey hey

Move ya soul and quake it about

Hey hey

Forget your troubles and get out on the floor

Hey hey

We’re here to show you how to do it some more (no no)

Do you see me? Dancing up here

Shaking it like there is no end

I’m just one man, showing you up

Doing my thing, just not caring

What would you do? If in my place?

Standing up here, all eyes on you?

Where will you be when our time has come?

The bovine revolution waits for no one

Times up game over now

Tell them we’re in control now

There’s nothing you can do Sit back and listen (cuz)

I can do this, all day long

The cows are marching in they’re coming for you

Come to avenge brothers you made into stew

Black and white and pink on two legs they loom

They’re closing in to seal your doom

Change Is In The Air

*This week is the last week at my current job and I just finished the mound of paperwork for another job. A big boy job :) hooray for me

*I'm lucky that I'm going to have about two weeks to get some things organized around the house and get things done that I've been putting off, not to mention be able to sleep a little bit. So the summer is looking up a bit.

*T3 writing is coming to a head and most likely going to record the new album in August and that's very exciting. I'm ready to get that new music out there to the people.

*Shows coming up, despite one being cancelled for no good reason on account of the venue who we've all agreed with to never play at again.

*I finally entered into the world of smart phones when my lovely phone bit the dust after 4 years the other day. Sad day for that, and even sadder day that now I can't stop playing with my phone so much. : /

*lots of other things, good things, bad things, stressful things, but ultimately hopeful things. Change is coming and it feels pretty ok at the moment.

Adulthood

Isn't what its all cracked up to be if you ask me.

There are too many really important decisions to make and it seems that anytime real headway is made that other people's decisions greatly effect my own causing me to not be able to achieve the few things that I want to, thus making my decisions even harder to make.

Somedays I wish I had a time machine to go back a year or two or three or whatever and change a few key moments so that a couple chain of events never happened and thus wouldn't be where I'm at today as lost as I am. oh well... back to the old thinking board.

Fowl Play

Everyday I go down to the pond

On the inside I feel something’s wrong

I pick up my loaf of wonder bread

Tear off a piece throw it at the ducks head

Quack quack quack quack

I go home to mow my lawn instead

I gotta spend me time; gotta clear my head

These ducks are bad not friends you see

Making life rather crappy for you and me

Quack quack quack quack

You think that you’re all that (the ducks are coming, the ducks are coming)

But you just been talking smack (the ducks are coming, the ducks are coming)

You feel that you’re out of luck (the ducks are coming, the ducks are coming)

Cuz you’re just a stupid duck (the ducks are coming, the ducks are coming)

Things were once real cool those ducks and I

Was it something I said? Something I tried?

Why can’t we all just go be good friends?

High fives and big hugs till the end

The ducks do their thing and I do mine

Yet news still travels on down the line

Lies being told; cant take anymore

Watch out waterfowl THIS MEANS WAR!

Look at that duck all down on his luck

Drivin that truck, you know he don't give a

quack quack quack
spiderwebs tattooed on his feet
and he's got gold teeth inside of his beak
goes to the subway to get some bread
then heads to the pond and goes to bed
none of the lady ducks know where he stays
cuz you know pimpin ducks don't poop where they play

The ducks are coming, the ducks are coming

The ducks are coming, they’re coming they’re coming

The ducks are coming, the ducks are coming

The ducks are coming to steal my sanity!
