I know the way you feel
Feeling queasy on the wonder wheel
I see ya rockin to and fro
But u can’t get your love to grow
You wanna get to the root of the ill
But your psychology is in the pill
It’s time to strip our troubles to the bone
Spend a little quiet time alone
My emotions going up and down
I’m a lover baby I’m a clown
You think you got me figured out
You got no clue what I’m all about
Seems like the world is on its head
Pay no attention go back to bed
We go and blame it on society
But now it’s come between you and me
You wanna get to the root of the ill
But your psychology is in the pill
It’s time to strip our troubles to the bone
Let’s spend a little quiet time alone
My emotions going up and down
I’m a lover baby I’m a clown
You think you got me figured out
You got no clue what I’m all about
I feel I’m wasting my time I feel I’m wasting my time

Im a soldier
On the street
I’m a cop
Out on the beat
Soul surviving
Everyday
Feels like all work
And no play
They got my number
They got my game
They rip me open
And keep me lame
I moving forward
I’m turning back
I’m very close
But then I crack
I’m building it up and I’m tearing it down
We got the service
We got the pipe
We pick the fruit
Just when it’s ripe
We got the features
We got the scoop
We’re inside game
Right in the loop
I’m feeling good
Bout twice a week
It comes and goes
With double speak
I got my lights on
I’m in the know
Let get the revs up
I’m ready to blow
I’m building it up and I’m tearing it down
You know the mind’s
A funny thing
It will be your friend
Then plant the sting
Blame education
Blame mom and dad
For the lucky breaks
You never had
You might be wasted
In a dead end fling
You might be in a mansion
Singing for the king
Yesterday’s jester
Bells on your head
But being alive
Is better than dead
Your building it up and you’re tearing it down

Got The Feeling

I got the feeling and it's running through my veins and through my bones
I've got the feeling I should sing a melody in that microphone
I've got the feeling that you might just start to dance when you feel my beat
I've got the feeling that we gonna get the groove and turn up the heat
Tuning in and feeling strong
Get your friends and come along
I'll let this guitar tell me just what notes it wants to play
I'll let the band just fall in line and get this party underway
I'll close my eyes and take my cues from the higher source that's a flowin free
Don't need no words got la la la, hey hey hey, and do rei me
Letting loose and getting light
Through the day and through the night
Tuning in and feeling strong
Get your friends and come alongj

Dead End Road

Where do you run where do you go
When you're racing down a dead end road
Can’t see the signs can’t read the code
We’re racing down a dead end road
Every other day feels like wasting life away in my shoes
Just another hand reaching out to understand these blues
Tell me what you know where to go and what I gotta do
Let the secrets unfold before I get too old and shed this mortal coil
Where do you run where do you go
When you're racing down a dead end road
Can’t see the signs can’t read the code
We’re racing down a dead end road
Feeling so alone sitting on a lonely throne all day
Everybody missing never listen to a thing I say
Keep it realistic everyone is narcissistic hey hey
Don’t put me on hold i need my fortune told and send me on my way
I’m the freak of the week I'm a certified caricature
Hanging on a limb banking on whim I aint so sure
Shed a little light I don't wanna fight I'm insecure
Blank pages rhymes I wasn't made for these times im so obscure

Tokyo Time Bomb

Touchdown on a silent runway he’s American to the core
Fast break with a girl from harajuku she can walk ya through the fantasy door
No sex no touching no moves a soldier boy u used to try
So get gone you better watch your step you better hang in tight she’s gonna fly
She’s so coool in the night
A cuddle puppy in the day
She breaks rules you can’t fight
And her momma and daddy can’t ever get in the way
She’s a Tokyo ticking time bomb
But she’s got a secret you will never know
She’s a Tokyo ... time bomb
and nobody can tell u when she’s gonna blow
Don’t get too close she might get her friends and take a ride
Get a double dose man it’s hard to let her from your side
A little tease a little eyelash bat a smile goes a million miles
No change brotha stay the course do not attempt to adjust your dial
She’s so coool in the night
A cuddle puppy in the day
She breaks rules you can’t fight
And her momma and daddy can’t ever get in the way
She’s a Tokyo ticking time bomb
She’s speaks terms you can’t understand
She’s a Tokyo ... time bomb
And youre gonna spend your whole life trying to be her lover man
Ooh ooh shimmy shimmy tick toc tick toc sugar sugar
Tick tock tick the clock is counting down
The dead men walk in Shinjuku town
A suicide chick keeps me on the run
I think we're out of time

Lady Justice

She’s fragile like an iris
She’s white as a desert bluff
She’ll let u know when she’s on her way
And she’ll leave when she’s had enough
She’ll choose her words carefully
Don’t rush her to express
Shes just like Lady Justice
And she lives with no regrets
She wears a satin blindfold
She won’t look you in the eye
She prefers to remain impartial
But she’ll hear your alibi
She’s quiet as a teardrop
Swiftly settles her small debts
Shes just like Lady Justice
And she lives with no regrets
She’s leveled with the rich man
She’s suffered with the poor
With children praying at her feet
To settle an old score
You think she’s in some pain
But she doesn’t seem to mind
She’ll call you when she’ll call you
She’ll leave you far behind
She’s handy with her wit
She rarely gets upset
Shes just like Lady Justice
And she lives with no regrets

Wag The Dog

We’re gonna teach you how to wag the dog
Straight from the propaganda catalog
We’re gonna take you on a wild ride
So come on baby let’s roll the tide
Let’s make it tacky, vile, and obscene
Shout some morally outrageous things
A little blockbuster with shock appeal
And we’ll make it all up it won’t have to be real
Everybody’s gonna fall for the trick
And people gonna make it their profile pic
But soon enough they will all forget
And we’ll have taken over government
We are the winners we never lose
Just keep the kids pumped on cocaine and booze
We gonna keep you craving satisfaction
Always gonna be the main attraction
We’ll keep the story pumping night and day
Things will appear to be in disarray
Everybody just gonna throw up their hands
No one got the time to understand

Worst Enemy Best Friend

Well there’s a change just beyond the horizon
Holding a future you might just find surprising
Sometimes the answers are easy and free
Can you wait for the moment to swing
When the angels come together and sing
Will you be ready for the change thats a comin to you
Worried bout the future and stuck in the past
Trying to get your love to last
It’s a lost to ask
When today just keeps rolling past
You had enough of the day to day
Can’t get those thoughts out of the way
So much at stake and so much to lose
Come on baby what ya gonna do
You’ve grown cold in the summer sun
You tried the short cut on the long run
Yeah you’re your own worst enemy
And your own best friend

This album is utterly and completely fantastic. Just mind-blowing heavy psych. A shame that this band folded after this album, because it’s just so, so good. Yet another Ripple release that gets played regularly.
