Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time.

20% Amnesia
What is your destiny? the police woman said....(20% amnesia)
The word that she wanted was destination i'm afraid (20% amnesia)
This is your future boy, this is your fate (20% amnesia)
And you're obsolete and they can't afford to educate you (20% amnesia)
In his bedtime boot boy jersey
Ringing up some fantasy tart
Give me strength or give me mercy
Life intimidates art
Chorus:
Give me strength or give me mercy
Don't let me lose heart
From rage to anaesthesia
Twenty percent amnesia
Were you passed out on the sofa (20% amnesia)
While justice was bartered by a drunken oaf? (20% amnesia)
This is all your glorious country thinks of your life (20% amnesia)
Stripped jack naked with a stanley knife (20% amnesia)
So the german queen went home again
But she couldn't find forgiveness
They made a fist of her hand of friendship
But it's only business
Chorus
The wine you drink has never seen a grape
And now your sci-fi suit has lost its shape
But its a dangerous game that comedy plays
Sometimes it tells you the truth, sometimes it delays it
Think back, think back if you still can
When the trumpet sounded and the world began
Somebody said "we must have won"
So they started burying the boogeyman
Mister gorbachov came cap in hand (20% amnesia)
From a bankrupt land to a bankrupt land (20% amnesia)
Mister gorbachov and some other fella (20% amnesia)
Were taken to a show called "cinderella" (20% amnesia)
It wasn't an accident, it wasn't a mystery (20% amnesia)
It was calculated and the rest is history (20% amnesia)
You don't have to listen to me
That's the triumph of free will
When there are promises to break
And dreams to kill
Chorus

Off To See The Lizard
Off to see the lizard
By: jimmy buffett, jay oliver
1989
I was raised by a maid who came from martinique
She wore geckos around her neck and bracelets on her feet
A superstitious woman from the land of sugar cane
Shed sing the sun to bed and dance out in the rain
Dance out, dance out, dance out in the rain
Shed excite us with a legend that the africans told
About a red iguanna who turned lava into gold
Wed mount an expedition heading up into the bay
Superstitious children playing pirate for the day
Chorus:
Off to see the lizard
Off to see the lizard
Deja deja deja vu
Believe it and it will come true
Veja veja veja du
What works for me might work for you
Being rich an famous seems to have its ups and downs
But thats the price you pay for being troubadours and clowns
Godzillas halitosis it be vaporizing cars
Elvis up in michigan or maybe out on mars
Dance out, dance out, dance out to the stars
But living in the briar patch aint what it appears
Sooner or later youve got to face your fears
I heard it from the parrot verbalizing in the tree
I heard in the songline of the aborigine
Chorus:
Off to see the lizard
Off to see the lizard
Deja deja deja vu
Believe it and it will come true
Veja veja veja du
What works for me might work for you
Does it work for me? (yeah, yeah)
Will it work for you? (yeah, yeah)
If you believe it will (yeah, yeah)
It will come true (yeah, yeah)
I got problems with my brain underneath my curls
Problems with loraine and all the other girls
Love a wealthy woman and the pretty plane she flys
If you think this sounds confusing you should see it through my eyes
Dancing, dancing, dancing through my eyes
Im turning off the waterfall the tourists can go home
I feel it time to travel take time to write a poem
Time to seek some therapy Im going walkabout
Answers are the easy part, questions raise the doubt
Chorus:
Off to see the lizard

Amnesia - 6
AMNESIA - 6
esspeecee…22.09.09.
Natural Amnesia
Yields and builds
Huh Hush Sigh
By hoi polloi.
Clothed Amnesia
The drapet
Happy in being
Pseudo oblivious
Keeps in-built feeling
Sailing rowing rafting
Joyriding with
Not river in boat
But boat on river
Cloaking feeling
Zapping showing
Out side smearing
Attire of Amnesia.
With the feeling
Not in the feeling.
With the happening
Not in the happening.
With the grief
Not in the grief.
It is
The thumb rule
Golden rule
Trusted rule
Bottom line rule
To
Plunge in allness
Of Universe
With eternal Bliss.
Glory unto:
Cultured Amnesia
Nurtured Amnesia
Pampered Amnesia
Purported Amnesia
Engineered Amnesia
Self imposed Amnesia [SiA].

Even If I Had Amnesia!
Somebody came to take my moon and stars,
Before the morning dawned.
Somebody planned to hijack all the rays,
Of my day.
But...
I'm not born to be that type of a guy,
To give up what's been routinely mine...
No!
Not ever.
Even if I had amnesia!
Somebody came to take my moon and stars,

No!

Even if I had amnesia!
Oh,
I'm not born to be that type of a guy,
To give up what's been routinely mine...
No!
Not ever.
Even if I had amnesia!
Even if I had amnesia!
Even if I had amnesia!
Even if I had...
Amnesia?
Who IS Amnesia?
And just how many have had it?

Amnesia within amnesia
Of the world left behind
Of people lived with
In a state of amnesia
Does one descend
All that one is aware of
Is the looming loneliness
Contracting and expanding
Not knowing the reason why
For in a state of amnesia
Does one descend
Call it karma
Call it a baggage
The back-pack stuffed
Not knowing what it contains
For in a state of amnesia
Does one descend
Amnesia within amnesia
One lives and fades

A Time To Feel Forlorn and Reconstruct What's Torn
There's a designated time in the universe for everything:
A time to limit, a time to expand.
A time to rise, time to lower and lend a hand.
A time to maintain, a time to abandon.
A time to develop, a time to rest at random.
A time to communicate, a time for silence.
A time to kiss your enemy, a time to concede wins.
A time to spite, a time to please.
A time for respite, a time to tease.
A time to process, a time to confess.
A time to do more. A time to do less.
A time to dominate. A time to captivate.
A time to plunge. A time to resurface straight.
A time to maximise. A time to minimise.
A time to diminish. A time to optimise.
A time to sacrifice. time to insist on rights.
A time to be selfish. A time to be concerned about plights.
A time to be big. A time to be small.
A time to care for a special one. A time to love all.
A time to add dimension. A time to simplify.
A time to advocate egalitarianism.
A time to exult.
A time to default.
A time to be accepting of imperfect humanism.
A time to enhance. A time to simplify.
A time to criticise. A time to dignify.
A time to produce. A time to use.
A time to relent. A time to refuse.
A time to demand. A time to give.
A time to die. a time to live.
A time to survive. A time to admit defeat.
A time to lie. A time to walk on your feet.
A time to compete. A time to not.
A time to remember. A time to concede you forgot.

Deja Voodoo
Black lights, green eyes starin' me down
The moment I walked in the room
There's this tall, dark woman who's dancin' alone
And she makes me wanna howl at the moon.
Is this a dream, or is it that I've been here before?
Takin' my mind, takin' her time, takin' control. Don't you know?
(Chorus)
That Deja' Voodoo, New Orleans hoodoo
She's got a mojo from hell
That spell I'm under, sometimes I wonder if she's
Witch, queen, or madamoiselle
If Kama Sutra's too hot to suit ya
Well, you're not her kind of man
That Deja' Voodoo- I will if you do
It's Deja' Vu all over again.
She takes my hand and she whispers to me
And says heaven's just beyond the door
She lights the fire and makes it all come to me
By tomorrow I'll be down on the floor.
Is it a dream, or is it that I've been here before?
Takin my mind, takin her time , takin' control. More and more?
(2nd Chorus)
(Bridge)
The moon takes over, desire gets stronger
The feelins won't let me go.
I run for cover, I'm so far under her spell, can't you tell?
(Refrain)
Is this a dream, or is it that I've been here before?
Takin' my mind, takin' her time, takin' control. Don't you know??
(3rd Chorus)
...Deja' Voodoo woman......deja' voodoo woman........

Deja Vu
I always knew, somewhere in time
We'd meet again, we'd cross that line
Don't need to question, no reason why
The answer lies before your eyes
Do you know who I am
Do you understand
*Chorus*
Deja vu, Dreams come true
I see my soul inside of you
Deja vu, so many lies
familiar spirits behind your eyes
we cross between world through windows of light
with open arms we hold back the night
the crystal of power we hold in our hands
we go on forever and love is the plan
Do you know who I am
Do you understand
*Chorus*
Deja vu, Dreams come true
I see my soul inside of you

El Tiempo Se Va I
He pasado por tanto lugar
dificil recordar
es lo mismo lo dije una vez
no importa donde vas.
Sali, luego me regres
casi me quedo solo.
El tiempo se va
me deja atras
sigo corriendo para esperar.
El tiempo se va
te deja atras
sigues corriendo para esperar.
El momento que ya termin
camina hacia atras
es lo mismo, lo dije una vez
lo vuelvo a repetir.
Sali, luego me regres
casi me quedo solo.
El tiempo se va,
me deja atras
sigo corriendo, para esperar.
El tiempo se va,
te deja atras
sigues corriendo para esperar.

Bonus Track-How Can I Live
Eres parecido en todo lo que soy
Sigo escondido
Perdido es lo que estoy
No - que no me deja ver
Por - que no me deja ser
Tu eres igual que yo
Espera lo peor
No puedo vivir
No quiero mentir
Tu eres parte de mi
No puedo vivir
No quiero mentir
Tu eres parte de mi
No he conocido todo tu dolor
Sigo mal-sentido
Y pierdo el control
No - que no me deja ver
Por - que no me deja ser
Tu eres igual que yo
Espera lo peor
No puedo vivir
No quiero mentir
Tu eres parte de mi
No puedo vivir
No quiero mentir
Tu eres parte de mi
...Y ya lo puedo ver
Nacido sin querer...
(No te encuentro)
Yo si pienso en ti
Yo si sueo en ti
No se si piensas de mi
Yo si pienso en ti
Yo si sueo en ti
No se si piensas de mi
No puedo vivir
No quiero mentir
Tu eres parte de mi
No puedo vivir
No quiero mentir
Tu eres parte de mi.

Deja Te Conecto
No me pidas que llore por ti,
alguna vez te vi sometido,
tus ojos caen y flotan en la obscuridad,
alumbrame, que estoy bien perdido.
Y fue una vez, si solo una vez,
que te dije la verdad, si solo una vez,
hinchado en alcohol, perdido en la noche,
soando con volver, con volver.
Y solo quiero que me des un poco de sinceridad,
y solo quiero que me des un poco de sinceridad.
Dejame verte caer, dejame entrar en tus sueos,
no, no, no es cierto que robaste el grito final
el que esta a la orilla del viento, no
deja me conecto.
Dejame verte caer, dejame entrar en tus sueos,
no, no, no es cierto que robaste el grito final

Turn! Turn! Turn!
Pete seeger
To everything, turn, turn, turn
There is a season, turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of peace, I swear its not too late
Original source
To every thing there is a season, and a time
To every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time
To plant, and a time to pluck up that which is
Planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to
Break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time
To mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to
Gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a
Time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to
Keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to
Keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of
War, and a time of peace.

Saint Amnesia
Saint Amnesia
Come down from the sky
And help the woman that is about to give birth
In a public washroon of the Arena during a Sunday Afternoon
That seems to be so strange that a woman would give birth to a baby in a public place in the afternoon
Don't you think so Saint Amnesia?
It sounds to me like a soap opera
Don't you think so Saint Amnesia?
But the truth is that life must go on
And when the woman's water breaks it means that the baby will be Born anywhere she is

Amnesiac
To amend the rules is sufficient,
But why with amnesia?
Your work is so precious to everyone,
The amity is felt so strongly,
Yet you do not remember us.
Amnesia is all it is, yet you seem to never recall
Or stipulate a fact for the work is so tremendous.
There is an anticipation perhaps of the coming story,
You need an antidote as this is painful.
It’s simply a brass object in the way,
A rash decision is to make,
I am not brash, and I never rattle.
Yet the rasp is heard so well
Of a particular problem.
The mind is suffering, amnesia is the accident,
And what of the partnership?
I find the world now obnoxious,
As this is my observance, when the whole assembly
Is so obsequious and you do not remember us.
I negotiate with the doctors,
And they neglect us as neighbours,
Bewildering us, obfuscating.

This Time
Lookin back on my life
Lookin back on my life
You know that all I see
You know that all I see
Are things I couldve changed
Are things I couldve changed
I should have done
I should have done
Where did the good times go?
Where did the good times go?
Good times so hard to hold
Good times so hard to hold
This time, this time
This time, this time
This time Im gonna find
This time Im gonna find
Lookin back on my life
You know that all I see
Lookin back on my life
Are things I couldve changed
You know that all I see
I could have done
Are things I couldve changed
No time for sad lament
I could have done
A wasted life is bitter spent
No time for sad lament
A wasted life is bitter spent
So rise into the light
In or out of time
Gonna rise straight through the light
So rise into the light
In or out of time
In or out of time
Gonna rise straight through the light
Woke up one other day
In or out of time
The pain wont go away
I am growing
In peculiar ways
Woke up one other day
Into a light I pass
The pain wont go away
Another dream, another trance
I am growing
This time, this time
In peculiar ways
This time Im gonna rise into the light
Into a light I pass
In or out of time
