Everysong
by Derek Campbell
She had wild eyes and her hair was long
And it comes as no surprise that her stare was strong
She had a cute little laugh in the evil way
And if she thought you might last then there'd be hell to pay
She was a thousand years older than her body felt
And she played her cards bolder than the hand she was dealt
It took her no time to unwind yer mind and if you tried to see her nature she might strike ya blind
She had a sweet little doggie that could eat your soul
she was forged in the furnaces of rock 'n' roll
It took God six days to create the world but he's still trying to get over just one wild and crazy girl
Theres no need to panic
She won't do you wrong no
When you think you can't stand it she will make you strong oh
She's from another planet and she wont stay here long no, so
You cant take her for granted
she's the girl from every song, oh I know, she's so... Uh!
Now she was just a child when she hit the road
she would drive them all wild with the stories she told
About a better place and a better time
And with her pretty face and a bitter rhyme
She would cast a spell that kept em all hypnotized
while she drew out their souls from the depths of their eyes
She would paint a pretty picture from the magical elixir that resulted from the mixture of the recipe that fixed ya
In a Jesus pose on the mountain top
You better come up with the SafeWord or the shit will never stop
Cause she's little queenie, she's a little meany and the world she's dreaming is the one we're living in so hear me.
Theres no need to panic
She won't do you wrong no
When you think you can't stand it she will make you strong oh
She's from another planet and she wont stay here long no, so
You cant take her for granted
she's the girl from every song, oh I know, she's so... Uh!

Bonestacker
by Derek Campbell
She's got eyes like a leopard staring dead into the void beyond the center of the universe
She's got thighs like the blessing a lesson from the jester combusting incandescent junipers
You might not think when you meet her
she likes to kiss all the boys and make them cry
You might not know what to see her
but when she stacked the bones she stacks them 5 miles high
She's got a face that would throw the navigation of the seventh incarnation of the deliverer
She's got a vase and she'll pluck you like a flower draining all the nectar you might want to give to her
You might not think when you meet her
she likes to kiss all the boys and make them cry
You might not know what to see her
but when she stacked the bones she stacks them 5 miles high

You know the words... sing along.

Sweet Demon
By Derek Campbell
There’s thing that I could tell you you wouldn’t want to know
And just because you heard it from me that don’t make it so
So tell me who will you believe me or your lying eyes
You tell me that you want to leave so don’t act so surprised
Oh sweet demon just when I think I’m doing well
You show up and drag me back to hell
There’s things that I could tell you you wouldn’t understand
Like, just ‘cause I’m good at taking off don’t mean that I can land
But sometimes this mean gravity makes me seek the friendly skies
and as you know, farewell, to me, doesn’t always mean goodbye
Oh sweet demon just when I think I’m doing well
You show up and drag me back to hell
There’s things that I could show you you wouldn’t want to see
And just because I know you that don’t make it free
But if you got it on you there’s nothing you can’t buy
But let me try to warn you It ain’t always such a prize
Oh sweet demon just when I think I’m doing well
You show up and drag me back to hell

We Come In Peace
By Derek Campbell
Union Army Soldier:
Ridin’ across the prairie, to the Great Divide
We’re the Union Army,
We got Jesus on our side, we got Jesus on our side
The Lord gave us this country, delivered us the Promised Land
We brought our wives and families
In a covered wagon caravan, in a covered wagon caravan
There’s but one thing stands between myself and fields of gold
That’s these wild and savage men whose scalps I’ve bought and sold
Whose scalps I’ve bought and sold
I tell ya boy them things’ good as gold!
All-Day-e-yodalaheyodalaheyodalahehoo...
Native War Chief:
On this Mother Earth, where we, Mankind
Have made our home since the edge of time
We The One People have kept her satisfied
Now you come here and you want a piece
But If you’re askin’ me, baby, that sounds like feedin’ the beast
So if you know what’s good for you just keep on passin’ through
Union Army Soldier:
Through inclement weather, through the dark of night
We will fight the savage
With orders just to shoot on site, with orders just to shoot on site
We’ll sneak into his village; we’ll burn his crops and corn
We’ll meet on fields of battle, Lord,
Bow and arrow versus cannon and gun, bow and arrow versus cannon and gun
We ride ‘pon the break of dawn with cannon gun and song
And we pray to God above that he may make us strong
Dear Lord, help us send them Natives to the place where they belong
Native War Chief:
On our sweet Mother Earth Great Spirit Provide
Buffalo to hunt and the horse to ride
My woman knows this warrior keep’s her satisfied
If you wanna get fucked up just keep comin’ at me
We’ve beat back the Ojibwa, the Dakota and even the Cree
If you’re lookin’ for trouble, baby, oh, it’s what you’re ‘bout to see
Union Army Soldier:
See across the valley where the smoke does rise?
That injun war party is so close now
I can see ‘em with my own two eyes, I can see ‘em with my own two eyes
Jesus guide my riffle, aim her straight and true
If this day will just go my way oh Lord
I’ll take me a scalp or two, I’ll take me a scalp or two
Oh but what in yonder skies does draw my gaze aloft?
Lights that shine so bright but make my heart feel soft
Tell me now feller where you get off! Yodalayhehoo…
!!!!BOOM!!!!
Union Army Soldier:
I can’t seem to move… but it kinda feels O.K.
I like your groove… so who are you anyway?
Aliens:
We come in peace, you don’t have to be afraid
We bring you peace, now it’s time to celebrate
We come in peace, you don’t have to be afraid
We bring you peace, now it’s time to celebrate
We have no weapons, we have no anger
We only come with the gift of peace, la la la la la la
All we have is love and understanding
And if you’re having trouble moving, just feel the beat
Just feel the beat, just feel the beat, just feel the beat, la la la la la la la
Union Army Soldier:
I feel the beat, I feel the beat, I feel the beat….
Deaf Old Man:
I’m just a deaf old man and I don’t understand
Just what’s been going on lately with everyone
Oh since that space ship came they’ve all acted so strange
They’ve been singing songs and making love and having fun all day
And they’ve forgotten about the war.
Isn’t that what we came here for?
YEAHHHH!
Come on all you geezers, Christian and Indian too
If you can’t hear you got nothing to fear
The sound ain’t gonna get to you, and now we got some work to do
If we band together we can take ‘em down
United, I know, we can take down this foe
Then WE can go another round, WE can go another round
Cause that’s the way the world goes round, the way the world goes round
LET’S GET ‘EM BOYS!!!!
