Monk of the Night

Whilst I roameth without
And the night doth draw nigh
My spirit is uplifted
All seemeth just and right
They hath compensated me
I hath overseen
I hath overseen the night

Sporatic Don
02:11
|
|||
Verily, my name is Don,
I am known as the sporatic one
None doth comprehend the cut of my jib
Or the to and fro I doth offer
I lack consistency, yea
But what I offer is jest
Verily, my name is Don,
I am known as the sporatic one
They did charge me with rank heresy
Because I lack consistency
I did strive my very best
To only give them jest
But they did murder me in Paris
On August the twenty fourth
Lo, I was Don, I was known as the sporatic one.
-
Verily, Don's the name, I'm known for my sporadic game None doth grasp the cut of my jib, nor the to and fro I oftly rib Consistency, I lack, that's true, but what I bring is jest to you
Verily, Don's the name, I'm known for my sporadic claim Charged with heresy, they did me blame, for I lack steadiness, what a shame I gave them jest, and did my best, but in Paris they laid me to rest On the twenty fourth, they did me wrong, now I'm just a sporadic song

Don't get me wrong I'm clerical
Don't think so fast, I am hysterical
Just because my occupation is a bore
Does not mean that all I do is snore
Please do not bring to me your prejudice
I am just as fun as all the rest of them
I have got the passion to make you smile
So don't knock me for my librarian style
Clerics know how to party, you just were not invited
You can judge all you want but don't get too excited
Just because I'm highly academic
Doesn't mean my moves are anemic
I can dance, and even prance
with the greatest out of France
So give me a chance and you will see
Just because we're clerics doesn't mean we have no fun
Please do not bring to me your prejudice
I am just as fun as all the rest of them
I have got the passion to make you smile
So don't knock me for my librarian style
Clerics know how to party, you just were not invited
You can judge all you want but don't get too excited
Clerics know how to party,
Again, don't get too excited
Just because you weren't invited
Clerics know how to party,
And we're always up all night...

I hath a lass
02:46
|
|||
A man did inquire of me once, what course shall I pursue,
What deeds must I perform to achieve mine ends?
I did respond unto that man, verily, I have already triumphed, and this is the truth,
For success is not a thing to be feigned or counterfeited.
It is akin to toiling to live the vision that I do declare unto thee,
Take not the bounteous blessings for granted.
I shall reveal unto thee one manner in which I verily live the vision,
And perchance, thou shalt then comprehend mine intent.
I hath a maiden who speaketh her convictions,
I hath a lass who discerneth what is just,
I hath a maiden who feareth naught,
I hath a lass who cherisheth her mother,
I hath a maiden who proclaimeth what is just,
I hath a lass who feareth naught, naught at all.
This singular truth is a benediction and the essence of triumph,
None can declare unto me that I possess naught,
They cannot insist that I require what they possess,
For to struggle to live the vision is to know the essence of triumph,
None can declare unto me that I possess naught,
They cannot insist that I require what they possess.
(I am betrothed to a maiden who feareth naught, naught at all.)

Dissonance Factor

Cognitive Dissonance
It's the loss of our innocence
We simply can't agree now
We've lost our way somehow
You say what I believe is trash because my ideas are weak
You make me look a fool and as if I'm some kind of freak
On the contrary, what you're offering is simply imagination
If you think the same of me, why the conflagration?
Cognitive Dissonance
It's the loss of our innocence
We simply can't agree now
We've lost our way somehow
You say what I believe is wrong because my words aren't eloquent
You'll make me have to fish around to earn your compliments
On the contrary, what you're offering is simply imagination
If you think the same of me, why the conflagration?

Cognitive Dissonance
'Tis the loss of our innocence
We simply can't accord now
We've lost our way somehow
Thou sayest my beliefs art trash, for my ideas art weak
Thou dost make me seem a fool, as if I'm some kind of freak
On the contrary, what thou offereth is mere imagination
If thou deem'st the same of me, why the conflagration?
Cognitive Dissonance
'Tis the loss of our innocence
We simply can't accord now
We've lost our way somehow
Thou sayest my beliefs art wrong, for my words lack eloquence
Thou wilt cause me to seek thy praise with much diligence

Girl in Hedingham
03:13
|
|||
Oh I was just a normal man
I had all normal qualities
Until I met this girl in hedingham...
She told me about the ways, all the ways I was so wrong
She still came 'round and spoke to me, and gifted me with song
No, she didn't treat me cruel in fact it was quite the better
One day I was at home and I received from her the letter
Oh, her mother wants her to go to faraway school
She'll ne'er come back to Devon, it's so cruel;
So I marched right over there and told her to her stare
That she needs to stay in Devon, for all the sake in Heaven...
Now, this girl in Hedingham was bright, so very bright
She always knew how to make the mood much lighter
I was able to hold my own, until I thought about my home...
my home with her....

All Good Knights
02:00
|
|||
What are we? Some kind of Coniguts?
No!
Ok boys!
Which ones of you are men?
The flare's gone up,
we're in a bind,
it's time to find our steel!
No matter wither we go
We always know
We've got the sharpest steel
No matter wither we go
We always know
The greatest armor feel
Our enemies flee at our sight
As all good knights know
They can't stand in front of us
Always down they go

Triplicate
06:18
|

I see you tried to invite yourself,
But you need me to bring you in.
I'm sorry you misunderstood,
next time - genuinely accept my offer
You'll need to fill these out in triplicate,
triplicate,
triplicate.
For the acceptance of your plea,
I only need one actual thing...
That would be your humility,
humility,
humility
You'll need to fill these out in triplicate,
triplicate,
triplicate.
-
I behold thou hast sought to invite thyself, Yet thou requirest me to usher thee in. I do apologize if thou hast misconstrued, next time - truly embrace my proffer
Thou shalt need to complete these in triplicate, triplicate, triplicate.
To warrant acceptance of thy entreaty, I require solely one tangible thing... That shall be thy humility, humility, humility
Thou shalt need to complete these in triplicate, triplicate, triplicate.

I heard there were vampires o'er in dublin
are the irish gone to the babylon
has the london gone?
oh it was built that way,
sod off all you in the nightmare business
I get you need blood but you get none of it
not round my place, I got the run of it...
goons try to push on us, and give us the mandate
we got the mind and the faith to make it
we don't need no approvals, we got something higher
im not gonna fill this out in triplicate
I'm gonna send it right here and right now
and you can tell dublin the irish aint gone to the babylon
the london gone?
it was built that way... still it's not gone
sod off all you in the nightmare business
You want the blood come get it
I got something better waiting for you
something you forgot, its the mind and the faith to make it
we don't need no approvals, we got something higher
come on out of that babylon
--
Not round my place, I got the run of it, no need to submit...
Goons try to push on us, and give us the mandate, but we won't acquit
We got the mind and the faith to make it right, shining so bright
We don't need no approvals, we reach for something higher, our inner fire
I'm not gonna fill this out in triplicate, it's a waste, I won't participate
I'm gonna send it right here and right now, no more delay, no need to bow
And you can tell Dublin the Irish ain't gone to the Babylon, we stand strong
The London gone? It was built that way... still it's not gone, it's here to stay
Sod off all you in the nightmare business, we'll resist your distress
You want the blood, come get it, but we're not afraid, we're ready to hit
I got something better waiting for you, a force you can't undo
Something you forgot, it's the mind and the faith to make it, we won't quit
We don't need no approvals, we reach for something higher, our inner fire
Come on out of that Babylon, join us in the son...

Smithy

O' the prince was given a quest
A quest to slay the dragon
The dragon has mighty scales
and no normal sword will do
Please dear Smithy, fulfill my request
I need a weapon of legend to win my quest
No normal blade will do,
If cannot run him through
I'll need some armor too
This normal stuff will not do
I'll be turned to ashes in short order
We need something grand for when I make my stand
Please dear Smithy, fulfill my request
I need a weapon of legend to win my quest
No normal blade will do,
If cannot run him through
-
Oh, the prince hath been given a quest A quest to slay the dragon dire The dragon hath mighty scales No common sword shall suffice
Hark, dear Smithy, fulfilleth my request I seeketh a weapon of legend for my noble quest No ordinary blade shall suffice If it cannot pierce his hide
I shall requireth armor of stout make This common attire shall not avail I shall be turned to ashes anon We requireth a grand armor for my valiant stand
Hark, dear Smithy, fulfilleth my request I seeketh a weapon of legend for my noble quest No ordinary blade shall suffice If it cannot pierce his hide
-
Oh, the prince hath a quest to fulfil To slay the dragon with scales so grand No common sword can pierce his hide A weapon of legend we need to provide
Hark, dear Smithy, grant me this request A legendary weapon for my noble quest No ordinary blade can stand the fight It must pierce his hide with all its might
Armor of stout make, I need in haste Common attire will not protect me well Turned to ashes, I shall be anon Grand armor we seek for my valiant stand
Hark, dear Smithy, grant me this request A legendary weapon for my noble quest No ordinary blade can stand the fight It must pierce his hide with all its might

Gleaming Disappointment
03:12
|
|||
In the heart of the kingdom, a hero rose With a gleaming sword, he faced his foes Slaying dragons, that was his fate But little did he know, it was all a debate
They never expected him to win Now the hero's caught in a spin Dragon slayer, with no reward All he got was a kingdom ignored
He fought through fire, and he fought through flame But when he returned, nothing was the same They shook his hand, with a deceitful grin The hero realized, it was all a sin
They never expected him to win Now the hero's caught in a spin Dragon slayer, with no reward All he got was a kingdom ignored
He thought he'd be hailed, a savior in their eyes But they turned their backs, with their twisted lies Now he roams alone, in the dragon's lair A hero scorned, with a world unfair
They never expected him to win Now the hero's caught in a spin Dragon slayer, with no reward All he got was a kingdom ignored
So here's the tale of the hero's plight A dragon's deceit, in the dead of night But he'll rise again, in the face of scorn For the hero's spirit, can never be torn
(In the midst of the kingdom, a valiant hero arose With a shining blade, he confronted his adversaries Slaying dragons, that was his destiny Yet little knew he, it was all a matter of contention...)
