They own the seeds they own the sky they're trying their best to take away our questions, why? they own the fields they own the trees they own this very song I sing oh if I were the wind it'd be no big sin to touch every inch of your skin and if I were the grass I think I'd ask every question I could think of and if I were the sun I'd shine down on everyone oh, if I were the sun I'd shine down on everyone so they could feel my love feel my love, and it beats me how we could trust the makers of agent orange to grow our seeds and it beats me how we can trust our sustenance, and our governance to the makers of war oh I am torn, by this chemical growth. 'cause they own the seeds they own the sky they're trying their best to take away our questions, why? they own the fields, they own the trees but you know they'll never own me they'll never own this song I sing oh if i were the wind it'd be no big sin to touch every inch of your skin and if I were the grass I think I'd ask every question I could think of and if I were the sun, I'd shine down on everyone, oh if I were the sun I'd shine down on everyone so they could feel my love, so they could feel my love, so they could feel my love, And fuck monsanto, yea, fuck monsanto, yea, fuck the Federal reserve and the profit schemes the proxy wars and the magazines fuck monsanto. Lyrics by Abigail Godfrey 'Abigail the Brave'

There was a fair and feathered maid who trode upon the seas and she swore up'oon her weddin' dress that n'ary a love have she quoth she 'my one and oonly loove hath died beneath the waves to bring for us a bounty to have our weddin' day' so she took to piratin' a fierce sea captain she and though she pillaged and plundered oh nary a love had she a shipwrecked man wooed for her hand, and with a laugh quoth she 'I s'pose if he'd come courtin', I'd wed the pirate king' In the morrow sunlight he strode aboard the deck she did not recognize him by the feather in his cap nor the pistol by his side nor the crew at his back he said 'I am the Pirate King here to fetch my prize, I believe just yesterday you agreed to be my bride'

Oh, your name it means sadness but you are the very voice of joy my child my child, in every beautiful blade of grass greeting with a billion inwards eyes oh just echo and report back to you that's all we can really do report in other mammal space ships here how are you diggin, are you diggin this atmosphere? we all have the answer, we are perfect and innumerable minute in existence's dance every eye of every cell is dancin' in that which is just an echo just echo and report back to you that's all we can really do report in other mammal space ships here how are you diggn, are you diggin this stratosphere? and I may sit and wonder why why I can't be satisfied but I am a space explorer I am my own, my own daughter so I will raise a billion of my own faces to the sun until this vibration echoes on so welcome, welcome child I hope you run run, run run wild and grow to grow again and become...

Persimmon 04:59
I was picking persimmons the color of fire and I watched the skin burst from the touch of the sunrise. but the birch trees don't speak to me no more, but the birch trees don't speak to me no more, for I am West wind teased, I am westward ever bound for I am west Wind teased, I am westward ever bound, I won't die not today not today not today but I walk through fire anyways, any ways, an yways &if they catch me singin' oh oh, if they catch me wingin' will I finally fall despite it all &if they catch me dreamin', oh oh, if they catch me screamin' will I finally learn to take it all, &the June rose bloomed in the clenched love affair of warm air in January maybe if it kept its damn legs shut we wouldn't be in this mess we wouldn't have this early death & this long life, and when the see rises one degree they'll sea they'll sea the reality sidhe was truth, truth was she they'll say, as I embark upon an arc made of seeds as I embarc upon an ark made of my own seeds. I won't die not today, not today, not today but I walk through hell fire anyways and if they catch me singin' oh oh oh if they catch me wingin' will I finally learn to take a fall I was pickin' persimmons the color of fire and I watched the skin burst from the touch of the sunrise.

Oh darlin, sweet darlin, oh darlin of mine your voice is as sweet as the summer sunshine and every day I'm searchin for you, time after time oh darlin, sweet darlin, of mine oh darlin sweet darlin, my faith is strong that it can sustain me all the winter long, but I can't find you in all the wrong the faces in all the wrong faces, places and time and I don't deserve more love than any other man but I guess we're all broken so come on and take this hand and I can't promise I'll make you happy but I'll try to understand oh darlin, sweet darlin of mine oh darlin, sweet darlin there's a pillow on my head and layin' all alone in my big empty bed I tell myself nobody can love me like I do oh, nobody can love me like do, and I hope it's true oh darlin, sweet darlin of mine, oh darlin sweet darlin, your touch is as kind as the finest and oldest of that Spanish red wine and I'll reach for you always and I'll pray that you're there and I don't know if I left it behind cause I've said no so many times oh darlin sweet darlin, oh darlin of mine oh darlin sweet darlin oh darlin of mine.
