Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this

Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks

Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking time. Any fucking day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your Prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car.

It's a
Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks

Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any fucking Time. Any fucking day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.

Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits.

And some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will 'cause
I sure could use a vacation from this

STUPID shit, silly shit, stupid shit...

One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.

Learn to swim. [x3]

Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to
be.

Learn to swim. [x9]

Fuck L. Ron Hubbard and
Fuck all his clones.
Fuck all these gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes.

Learn to swim. [x9]

Fuck retro anything.
Fuck your tattoos.
Fuck all you junkies and
Fuck your short memory.

Learn to swim. [x8]

Fuck smiley glad-hands,
With hidden agendas.
Fuck these dysfunctional,
Insecure actresses.

Learn to swim. [x8]

'Cause I'm praying for rain;
I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom, please, flush it all away.
I wanna see it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.

Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
Try and read between the lines.

I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend.

I wanna see it come down.
Bring it down.
Suck it down.
Flush it down.

~PEACE~

The day the first human took it's first breath was the beginning of the end. We're the cancer of this planet and will kill it off along with ourselves.

I disagree.

I don't believe we are "the cancer of this planet", because we are more like stuarts, or shephards.

Its our duty to take care of this planet because we are the most conscious, intellectual, astute, sentient beings that live on earth. Sure, as a species, we are not perfect, but we have the most potential for good or bad.

We need to try and live in harmony with nature, and not against it.

~PEACE~

You're right, but most people don't think that way unfortunately.

any positive change you can make to this world. I took my dog for a run the other day along our canal path, I started picking up random rubbish. I felt different. I feel as if I know I'm a law breaker, but fuck it. As long as I live my life morally right, without causing harm to anyone or thing, never be envious and protect when I can that is my start, of change. The other day I was first on the scene on a hit and run. The victim was an elderly lady. Holding her wet head and comforting her she spoke perfect queens English. I thought if she knew I murdered someone would she still feel the same way about me. My own guilt probably, but I know society is heavily prejudiced myself included. As long as we mistrust we cannot be truly empathetic.without empathy we will continue to live selfishly.

Not fully understanding of their own psychology, when you put two dogs in a ring in all probability, they will fight. One might fight hard and win, the other might die (possibly). Each dog wants to please their owner, given a different life they would never had met. But instead they were corrupted by their owners, starved of love and food and thrown into a purposely designed situation where one of them HAS to lose and that could mean death.

The native American was probably the most harmonic culture to ever live on this planet.

After that, all man in his tribal primitive state was pretty neutral.

As our societies have progressed, all seem harmful.

Presently the west is developing, at least the ideal, that we need to get back to a more harmonious state. The rest of the world seems to desire development at any and all cost.

Something tells me the planet has more capability to maintain homeostasis, yet I think humanity can override that system.

I think we are being groomed to accept changes. These changes might bring peace, but I doubt they will bring harmony amongst us.

I just think that people as a whole are too smart for their own good. I'm talking about what makes us different from other animals- our more powerful brains that allow higher levels of thought compared to other life. It gives us the ability to do bigger more advanced things and have more control and power over our environment. But with that greater power also comes a greater responsibility, and a greater opportunity to fuck things up as well.

Animals don't create such problems that humans create. They just live more basic and natural just trying to eat and survive. Humans used to be the same way too eons ago. They were in the same boat as all other life, playing the game of survival. Early primitive hunting people's individual lives might not have been as "enjoyable" as it is today with all our advancements, but that basic survivalist way of life does ensure that you're not fucking up the planet. It does no harm. Back then, the Earth was fine because nothing was trying to mess with it or alter it on huge scales like people have the ability to do. The Earth was fine for billions of years before people came along.

Total nonsense. Don't buy into the fear mongering. There's always been this "end times" crap going around. Most of what you hear is either from youtube, or other internet gurus trying to sell you books and web subscriptions.
