  • Wonderful Life

    Track 2 from C-90


    Lyrics:


    Wonderful Life


    Take me away on the breeze, my loves if you please

    From a world that gives nothing to a fool who believes

    Carry me off to a day where Philotes’ reigns

    Where the sweat of the blessed is humanity’s gain


    And humanity’s gain, through the veil of philosophy,

    Rides the Rawlian waves from the shores of Bernays’ belle epoque


    Its a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life

    Its a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life


    Phineas gave man a gauge for to measure his ways

    To being served by emotions but being never their slave

    Fashion a world for me now that gives thought to the hows,

    To the whys and wonders that conspire to confound


    That conspire to confound against Galton’s autocracy

    Ceding Spensoric ground to the dreams of some foolish sociocrat

  • Time to Move Away

    Track 1 from the album C-90 by Dave Egan


    Lyrics:


    Time to Move Away


    Julie had a dream that she lived within a picture

    Of colours and brushstrokes clear

    She lived among reds and greens and blues

    Weaving lines of rich and varied views


    She was scarred and scared when she learned

    That her loved and precious painting was slowly fading in sunlights’ glare

    She packed her bags and walked away

    Into a sunset just turned to grey


    Its time to move away

    There’s nothing left to say


    Julie found another home in another picture

    Of charcoals, all shades of grey

    One day she pulled the blinds and got such a shock

    Black and white lines was all she got


    Its time to move away

    There’s nothing left to say


    And so she flees the dying skies

    In search of form and colour

    Wishing that sun would emerge from rain once again

    That summer smiles emerge from tears…


    Its time to move away

    There’s nothing left to say

    Concession can’t be saved

    There is no grey, its time to move away


    Its time to move away

    There’s nothing left to say

    Nuance has found its grave

    The birdbrains made it time to move away
