Hammacher Schlemmer is selling a shelter, worthy of Kubla Khan's Xanadu dome; Plushy and swanky, with posh hanky pankythat affluent Yankees can really callhome. Hammacher Schlemmer is selling a shelter,a push-button palace, fluorescent repose; Electric devices for facing a crisiswith frozen fruit ices and cinema shows. Hammacher Schlemmer is selling a shelterall chromium kitchens and rubber-tiled dorms; With waterproof portals to echo the chortlesof weatherproof mortals in hydrogen storms. What a great come-to-glory emporium!To enjoy a deluxe moratorium, Where nuclear heat can beguile the elitein a creme-de-la-creme crematorium.

Without your love It's a honky-tonk parade Without your love It's a melody played in a penny arcade. It's a Barnum and Bailey world Just as phony as it can be But it wouldn't be make-believe If you believed in me.
When I'm not near the girl I love, I love the girl I'm near.
Lives of great men all remind us greatness takes no easy way. All the heroes of tomorrow are the heretics of today. Socrates and Galileo, John Brown, Thoreau, Christ, and Debs Heard the night cry down with traitors, and the dawn shout Up the reds!

Somewhere over the rainbow, Way up high There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby. Somewhere over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true.

Follow the fellow who follows a dream.
Some day I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemondrops Away above the chimney tops, That's where you'll find me. Somewhere over the rainbow Bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow, Why then, oh why can't I?

I am a rebel by birth.. I contest anything that is unjust, that causes suffering in humanity. My feelings about that are so strong, I don't think I could live with myself if I weren't honest.
