Join In The Dance By: Marlene Sosebee 10/24/2011

Marching on the streets of Washington
Marching on the streets of LA
Wall Street has a bug up its’ butt
And it won’t crawl on out today

Looking down from the 50th floor
Man it’s scary as hell
If the people keep a rising up
There’ll be nothing left up here to sell

Why don’t you take a chance?
Come down to the street and join in the dance

Stealing off the future
Grabbing all that they can
Fear drives a heart of stone
And greed is the heart of the plan

No one can save your soul
From the evil that’s inside
Open up your eyes and see the world
Maybe then you can join in the ride

Why won’t you take a chance?
Come down to the street and join in the dance

Show Them A Sign By: Marlene Sosebee 10/2011

You lived a good life and followed the rules
Only to find out they were made by fools
Came the time for you to open your eyes
The ones you believed in were telling you lies

Show them a sign, give them an answer
Wave your flag up high. Don’t let them push you away

Sean, Bill, Glen and Rush chased a Fox up a hill
Took the money and ran to the bank that’s robbing you still
Telling lies and twisting the truth in a sinister way
So you will vote against your best interest on Election Day

Show them a sign. Stick it right in their face
Don’t back down from the issues
that plague all the human race

Time and time again they say the same old stuff
Protecting the top percent can sometime be real tuff
Tom, Randi, Rachael and Ed will set things right
Fact checking the truth, the truth shines in the light

Show them a sign, give them an answer
Wave your flag up high. Don’t let them push you away

Stop Tearing It Down By: Marlene Sosebee Nov. 2011

Stop tearing it down
It makes, my, poor heart, bleed
Stop tearing it down
‘Cause it’s something we all need

Entitled to this, entitled to that, listen to the word, it’s a natural fact
You paid all you life with blood and bone, now they want to push you out of your home
Kicking you hard when you’re flat on your back, taking away the middle class
Now they want to privatize everything, take away your money when you’re retiring

Stop tearing it
You keep on plotting in the middle of the night when no one’s watching you
Stop tearing it
You keep on stealing and you know it’s not right and there’s nothing that we can do

Telling me this, telling me that, I don’t understand what you’re getting at
Say you are right, say we are wrong but I don’t think you know what is going on
Kicking us hard when we’re flat on our back, taking away the middle class
Now you want to privatize everything, take away our money when we’re retiring

Stop tearing it down
It makes my poor heart bleed
Stop tearing it down
‘Cause it’s something we all need

Entitled to this, entitled to that, listen to the word, it’s a natural fact
You paid all you life with blood and bone, now they want to push you out of your home
Kicking you hard when you’re flat on your back, taking away the middle class
Now they want to privatize everything, take away your money when you’re retiring

Stop tearing it
You keep on plotting in the middle of the night when no one’s watching you
Stop tearing it
You keep on stealing and you know it’s not right and there’s nothing that we can do

Stop tearing it down
It makes my poor heart bleed
Stop tearing it down
‘Cause it’s something we all need (2X) Stop tearing it…

Stand By By: Marlene Sosebee 11/2011

Stand by those who march, upon Wall Street
Listen to the drums, pound out the beat
Take a look and see, what’s on the wall
The writing that is there, will tell it all

Stand by those that don’t have a place to sleep
Stand by those that don’t have much to eat
Give yourself the time, to help them out
Raise, up your voice, scream and shout

Take a look at those, that do it wrong
Look them in the eye, sing your song
You can change the world, if you try
Don’t believe their words, when they lie

Stand by those who march, upon Wall Street
Listen to the drums, pound out the beat
Take a look and see, what’s on the wall
The writing that is there, will tell it all
I said the writing that is there, will tell it all

Stand by (4X)
Come on and stand, stand by (8X)

Today By: Marlene Sosebee 10/2011

Today we rise up from the bed
Shake the blues from our shoes and head
From the rich the poor shall be fed
Purple haze will rise from blue and red

Today we know what we must do
We have the strength to see it through
It always comes down to me and you
Fix it now and the future is new

Today we all have become one
We can fix the things that they have done
I don’t think we are in it for the fun
Set a new course aim for the sun

Today it’s time to make things right
No need for a fuss or a fight
The deeds that were sewn deep in the night
Are now being seen way out in the light

Live today so we can change today
We’ll make today a brighter day

Greed By: Marlene Sosebee Nov. 2011

No one can stop it, no way, no how
It’s what you get when greed pulls the plow
Time to change it starting with you
Tear it down and start a new

No one can stop it, no way, no how
It’s what you get when greed pulls the plow
You must have seen this coming at you
You must have felt there was something new

Drum circles keep pounding out the beat
Youth rising up out in the street
Marching down to the local hall
Politicians trying to make sense of it all

Turn Away by: Marlene Sosebee 9/2011

Sitting here in the bleachers, looking out at the race
I’ve given up on the running. I had to set my own pace.
Philosophically broken, with little left to say
The world is crumbling before us. It won’t help you to pray.

You should have changed the way that you were living.
Better days were meant to be.
This time you will not be forgiven,
We’ll turn away, respectfully.

Last night I saw your face in the middle of a dream.
Why the hell am I thinking of you?
Please tell me what it all means.

We try so hard to see the future,
Never knowing that it’s all fate.
Don’t hide the past because it hurts you.
Face the truth it’s not too late.

Tomorrow’s another day. Pick up my guitar and play.
Nobody will hear me, won’t hear the words that I say.

You should have changed the way that you were living.
Better days were meant to be.
This time you will not be forgiven,
We’ll turn away, respectfully.

Sitting here in the bleachers, looking out at the race
I’ve given up on the running. I had to set my own pace.

You should have changed the way that you were living.
Better days were meant to be.
This time you will not be forgiven,
We’ll turn away, respectfully.

Dead Red By: Marlene Sosebee 5/2011

Stand down… Don’t defend us
Step down don’t, represent us
Shut up… Don’t infect us
Lay down… You don’t reflect us

Dead red… Red in the head and you don’t understand
Sea of blue is taking you down as you sink in the sand
All your words get twisted around as you fight for the rich
The truth hurts as the facts get out and your life is a bitch

Dead red… Dead in the head and you can’t see the light
Fear drives you out of your mind as you put up a fight
Money talks… Bullshit walks and you follow that trail
It takes you down and tears you apart as your policies fail

Dead Red… Red in the head and you don’t understand 8X

A New Start By: Marlene Sosebee 7/2010

The air is dying, this air we breathe.
We’re killing everything we need.
We pollute our bodies and we poison the ground.
What will it take just to turn it around?

The Gulf is dying. The seas are black.
This time I don’t think it’s coming back.
The men have spoken. The greed extends.
They’ll give you money just to make amends.

But when your life is gone it’s never the same.
You’ll find a new life and forget all the pain.
The change you need is in your heart.
Stop all the killing and make a new start.

They say by one third. We can cut it down.
Into your stomach let plants abound.
The creatures on this planet are here to survive.
Not to be tortured or eaten alive.

The Changes By: Marlene Sosebee 4/12/11

Want to take you on a different ride
Going to show you what I feel inside
I know you’ve got a thing or two to say
About the way you’re living day to day
Nobody’s going to change your plan
I only wish that you could understand
The only way that we can make it right
Is if you open up your eyes and see the light

Vegan will now save us when you make the changes
We will not be hated when you make the changes

Some day when it all is gone
You’ll look back and think what went on
Did you give it everything you had?
Or did you shun it all, just to be bad?
Nobody’s going to change your plan
I only wish that you could understand
The only way that we can make it right
Is if you open up your eyes and see the light

Vegan will now save us when you make the changes
We will not be hated when you make the changes

Vegan will now save us when you make the changes
We will not be hated when you make the changes

Want to take you on a different ride
Going to show you what I feel inside
I know you’ve got a thing or two to say
About the way you’re living day to day

Vegan will now save us when you make the changes
We will not be hated when you make the changes
Vegan will now save us when you make the changes
We will not be hated when you make the changes
