"These Days"
everything's equilibriumizing  
there's new things on the horizon

 new stars arisin' 
for a while there's been sh_t pilin up now everywhere  
 things are quick livenin' up 
beginnin to get riled up 

ABOVE: A summer afternoon in  Woodstock, NY. 

Democracy

 (Wilson State Park
near Route 28 Catskills NY)

Costa Rica has no military ...it

 was abandoned in about 1950.

military action against 'em

infractions against 'em

taxes in fact we spent 'em  

and it happened without relentin

i don't wanna spend my life's 

vacation 

debatin' or slayin'

I'd rather be playin' 

actually freedom's sacrificed by the macro vice 
that impacts our life.. 
makes us think we gotta do all the sh_t that's quite "usual" trite cute N just right
but who's the fool and who's the cool dude who came up with new food for thought
then entered into the school books the teachers taught ? 
Excuse, but it was almost always some "wacked" guy 
nobody could handle even though they had to try 
radically revolutious folks 

how about Einstein, that fine mind called a bad kid 
when he gave his teacher a hard time for being such a hard nose 
don't step on my toes cold bro hard liner

but Einstein his hair he didn't care and he'd wear whatever 
he just needed to find time to try to define time 
and everything else for that matter 

 i got an idea, what if regular people sent letters  
to the incredible people that run sh_t N tell us what to do
