"Saw It With My Own Two Eyes"
or,
"The Plight of the Dairy Farmer as Victim of UFO Abduction"
	          
Lyrics, Music & Arrangement By: Jeremy J. dePrisco

Saw it with my own two eyes...

Out by my field
Out by my grain
Weren't no weather balloon
No...didn't look the same to me.

I don't know what I saw here last night.
So don t ask me what I saw here last night.

It was late last night
Listen what I say
Bright beam of light
Came and took Bessy Mae from me.

I don't know what I saw here last night.
So don't ask me what I saw here last night.

SOLO

Gonna carry my axe
Gonna carry my hoe
Gonna carry my pick
Gonna see what's in store...for them...
	if they ever come back.

Cause they can have my fields
They can have my grain
Oh, but you better believe
1 need my Bessy Mae for me.

I don t know what I saw here last night.
So don't ask me what I saw here last night.
I don't know what I saw here last night.
But I saw it with my own two eyes...

"The Lie"

Lyrics, Music, Drum Sequences & Arrangement By:
Jeremy  J. dePrisco

1.	Pyros can't wait for flames to start burning.
		Hunters can't wait to pray on the fawn.
	Teachers can t wait to begin the unlearning.
		And all that was right has now become wrong.

CHORUS
	Hopeless and lost are those who were searching,
		for innocent eyes and a heart so pure.
	Disease lurks inside of the weak and the weary,
		the strong ones are safe...they have the cure.

				BRIDGE

CHORUS
	Hopeless and lost are those who were searching,
		for innocent eyes and a heart so pure.
	Disease lurks inside of the weak and the weary,
		yet the strong ones are safe, they make up the rules.


2. 	Blind hatred kindles the fires for witch burning,
		the past pumping blood to fuel the untruth.
	The Priest of the Lie smiles a mile wide,
		for it is he who has stolen the mind of the youth.

CHORUS
	Reasons to fight increasingly blurry.
		yet the soldiers can't wait to drop the bomb.
	Your arteries are clogged, but no reason to worry;
		Have a Big-Mac-heart-attack and life will go on.
	(WITHOUT YOU!!)
