MY GALOSHES (THEY KEEP MY SHOES DRY)

It’s raining outside   Raining outside

I need my galoshes   My galoshes

I need    My galoshes   It’s hard to put them on

But they keep my shoes dry   My galoshes

They keep my shoes dry   My galoshes

Galoshes   They keep my shoes dry   Galoshes

It’s hard to put them on    It’s hard to put them on

But it’s worth it     Where’s my clip tie

 

 

THE GREATEST GENERATION

Well let me make this clear  Clear to you

I’m American   American boy   24-7 American boy

American boy     Loose lips sink ships (4X)

 

24-7 American   Let me make that clear   I’m American

Rosie the riveter please come back

Rosie the riveter please come back

The greatest generation    paid the price

The greatest generation    self sacrifice

Self sacrifice   They paid the price

 

LIFE IS STRANGE 

You might think that you’ve got it all figured out

I’ll tell you this now, hey life is strange

I’ll say it again at the risk of repeating myself

I tell you this now, hey life is strange

Everyday can be a holiday in the sun

Or you never know, it just might be your last

So take a walk on the beautiful shoreline

Feel the sun, feel the breeze oh yeah

You might think that you’ve got it all figured out (PAUSE)

I’ll tell you this now, hey life is strange

YOU’RE TALKIN’ GARBAGE

So I’m listening to what you’re saying

Yeah I’m listening to what you’re saying

I have an open mind   But what I’m hearing is garbage

Garbage   Garbage   You’re talkin’ garbage

You’re talkin’ garbage  garbage

You’re talking garbage garbage

I can’t understand it     Makes no sense

No sense   No sense    No sense

You’re talkin’ garbage   Garbage

You’re talkin’ garbage   I’ve got an open mind

But what you’re saying makes no sense

You’re talkin’ garbage  Garbage   Garbage

What can I say    What can I say

 

SO MANY THINGS

SO MANY THINGS I’VE GOT TO DO   SO MANY THINGS I’VE GOT TO DO

I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START   I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START

I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START   I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START

ONLY ONE THING I’VE GOT TO DO   ONLY ONE THING I’VE GOT TO DO

IN-FAITH BE LIKE A CHILD   IN-FAITH BE LIKE A CHILD

IN-FAITH BE LIKE A CHILD   IN-FAITH BE LIKE A CHILD

 

I HATE GARDEN HOSES

OH YEAH HERE WE GO

I HATE GARDEN HOSES   THEY ARE NO FRIEND OF MINE

THEY HAVE PROPENSITY   TO TWIST UP LIKE A VINE

YEAH I HATE GARDEN HOSES

THEY REALLY LIKE TO KINK UP   KINK UP KINK UP KINK UP

IT BLOWS MY MIND

I HATE GARDEN HOSES   I NEED A STICK LIKE MOSES

CAUSE I HATE GARDEN HOSES

YOU HAVE TO BE REALLY CAREFUL WHEN YOU ROLL THEM UP

I HATE GARDEN HOSES (ROLL THEM UP   ROLL THEM UP)

 

CALLED HIM FRIEND     

No  satisfaction     Wasted privilege             

Freedom of choice   Perfection betrayed       

And the Lord still called him friend

Even near the very end                         

Ignoring heaven’s light

Sealed with a kiss in the night

Events were allowed     Decisions were made

Freedom of choice         Perfection betrayed   

 

LIFE IS STRANGE (ELECTRIC ISLAND version)

You might think that you’ve got it all figured out

I’ll tell you this now, hey life is strange

I’ll say it again at the risk of repeating myself

I tell you this now, hey life is strange            

Everyday can be a holiday in the sun

Or you never know, it just might be your last

So take a walk on the beautiful shoreline

Feel the sun, feel the breeze oh yeah

You might think that you’ve got it all figured out

I’ll tell you this now, hey life is strange

 

Running Back to You

 

Oh how, oh how I feel

Deepest secrets in my heart

So I’m running back to You     

Yes I’m running back to You

So I’m running back to You

Oh how, oh how I feel 

Would have, could have, should have

Yes I’m running back to You

Oh now, oh now I know

You have always been with me

 

KEEP THE FAITH (When The World Seems Hopeless)

What a world   what a world

But you gotta   You’ve got to    You’ve got to keep the Faith

Keep the Faith   When the world seems hopeless

Keep the Faith    Keep the Faith   Keep the Faith

When the world seems hopeless  Keep the Faith

When people fail you    Keep the Faith

When prayers have no answers  Keep the Faith

Well, they want your money   Money back   Money back

IT’S A BRAVE NEW WORLD

It’s a brave new world   A brave new world

Alpha children wear grey  They work much harder than we do

Because they’re so frightfully clever  (ha ha ha ha ha)

I’m really awfully glad I’m a Beta   A Beta

Because I do not work so hard   And then we are much better

than the Gammas and the Deltas   Gammas are stupid  

They all wear green   Delta children wear khaki

  Oh no    I don’t want to play with Delta children

And Epsilons     Epsilons are still worse

They’re too stupid to be able to read or write

Besides they wear black which is such a beastly color

I’m so glad   So glad I’m a Beta

 

WRONG SPEAK

So this is how it is     This is how it is   This is how it is

The Equity Compliance Officer wishes to speak with you

The Equity Compliance Officer wishes to speak with you

Citing hateful and harmful speech code violations

Your words   Your ideas do not align with our philosophy (Not at all)

Wrong Speak   Action will be taken   You have to be removed

There is no other choice since you do not agree

Ther’s nothing more we can say since you do not agree   Guilty
