Are You Dizzy?
01:49
|
|||
Chords throughout: Gm , Cm, D, Gm
Are you dizzy like you’re on a boat
Are you dizzy like you’re swimming ‘round a moat
Are you dizzy like you’re floating off the ground
Are you dizzy like you’re gonna drown
Are you dizzy and your head just spins
Are you dizzy like you just had twins
Are you dizzy and the room is spinning
Are you dizzy like the lights are dimming
Oh woh, oh oh oh oh
Oh woh, no no no no
So busy feelin’ dizzy that you don’t know where to go
Are you dizzy and it doesn’t make sense
Are you dizzy and its makin’ you tense
Are you dizzy and your ears are ringing
Are you dizzy and your brain is zinging
Are you dizzy like a merry go round
Are you dizzy like you’re upside down
Dizzy like an ant in a dixie cup
Are you dizzy like you’re gonna throw up
Oh woh, oh oh oh oh
Oh woh, no no no no
So busy feelin’ dizzy that you don’t know where to go
Oh woh, oh oh oh oh
Oh woh, no no no no
So busy feelin’ dizzy that you don’t know where to go

Magnetic North

Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
Now you've got your computers and your GPS
But don’t forget what’s still the best
You don't need electricity or radiation
Just a compass pointing to your destination
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
The compass points ‘cuz of the earth's iron core
That's a magnet too if you're keepin' score
But magnetic north is not the north pole
So don't come to me if Santa left you coal!
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
Let me lead you to places that you’ll want to go
What you’ll find, you never know
I might take you to Greenland or the Ukraine
But wherever you are your compass says the same
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day
Magnetic, magnetic North
Use me to find your way
Magnetic, magnetic North
If you’re lost, I’ll save the day

That's why I have an orchard and an apiary.

Glacier Baby
02:17
|

I may be cold and old and moving slow
I may be white and thick and got a ways to go
If you walk on me you might find fleas
Or polar bears and seals or arctic seas
And when I left, I carved the mountains
And when I left, I carved the hills
And when I left, I carved the valleys
I left the rocks and clay, it lies there still
I left the rocks and clay, they call it till
I may be below zero celsius
I may be below 32 fahrenheit
I covered this whole valley, I covered Canada
My ice was everywhere sparkling white
And when I left, I carved the mountains
And when I left, I carved the hills
And when I left, I carved the valleys
I left the rocks and clay, it lies there still
I left the rocks and clay, they call it till
I’m a glacier baby, keep me around for you
I keep the world cool so just say thank you
Don’t count me out don’t let me get melted down
I keep the world cool, you need me around
I keep the world cool, you need me around
I keep the world cool, you need me around

My name is mother earth
I'm 4.54 Billion years old
I've had something to say
Every second of every minute of every day
Of every week of every month of every year
For each of those 4.54 billion years
7.83 hertz
From the land and the sea
7.83 hertz
A gift to you from me
7.83 is the frequency
Otto Schuman discovered
Back in 1954 Germany
My sweet vibration was uncovered
7.83 is a way to describe
The invisible wave that I provide
Which makes you feel at home
Wherever on me that you might roam
7.83 hertz
From the land and the sea
7.83 hertz
A gift to you from me
But somethings been happening kinda strange
Everyone used to enjoy my wave range
But with all the new waves you're making
My message is stirred, broken, and shaken
7.83 hertz
From the land and the sea
7.83 hertz
A gift to you from me
You love my trees, love my leaves
You love my sky, you don't know why
You love my showers, you love my flowers
You love my hawks, love my walks
But what you love most of all
You can't see at all
Deep inside your brain
Your wave is the same as mine
Your wave was born from mine
When were together you feel fine
But what you love most of all
You can't see at all
Deep inside your brain
Your wave is the same as mine
Your wave was born from mine
When were together you feel fine
Your wave is the same as mine
You wave was born from mine
When were together you feel fine
Your wave is the same as mine

Magnetism
To attract is to bring together
To repel is to push apart
Please tell me where this story
has its start
Way back in the beginning of time
electrons began to fly
around their atoms’ nuclei
and spinning ‘round themselves
Spinning ‘round themselves, round and round
Spinning ‘round themselves, and around the nucleus
Spinning ‘round themselves, round and round
Spinning ‘round themselves, and around the nucleus
When electrons spin the same way
that’s when magnetism starts to play
with lines of force strong and straight
creating North and South poles
Difference pulls and sameness pushes back
like repels like and opposites attract
every magnet has a North and South pole
that’s where the magnetic field grows
North attracts South, South attracts North
Lines of force, of course, of course
North repels North, South repels South
‘cuz of all those electrons spinning around
Spinning ‘round themselves, round and round
Spinning ‘round themselves, and around the nucleus
Spinning ‘round themselves, round and round
Spinning ‘round themselves, and around the nucleus
To attract is to bring together
To repel is to push apart
Thank you for telling me where this story
has its start
North attracts South, South attracts North
Lines of force, of course, of course
North repels North, South repels South
‘cuz of all those electrons spinning around
Spinning ‘round themselves, round and round
Spinning ‘round themselves, and around the nucleus
Spinning ‘round themselves, round and round
Spinning ‘round themselves, and around the nucleus

Electromagnet Star
03:03
|

What’s the secret of my force?
Electric current, it’s a powerful force
I’m an Electromagnet, I can lift a car
Electromagnet, I’m a magnet star
I got a wire coil inside of me
Flowing with electricity
Wrapped around a metal core
Of ferromagnetic soft iron ore
Electromagnet, that’s what I am
Electromagnet, let me say it again
Electromagnet, I can lift a car
Electromagnet, I’m a magnet star
Well, I get a lot of work in industry
In loudspeakers, generators, MRI machines
You can use me to make your motor go
All I need is that electric flow
Electromagnet, that’s what I am
Electromagnet, let me say it again
Electromagnet, I can lift a car
Electromagnet, I’m a magnet star
Yeah!
Whoah!
Uh huh!
Hey!
When you flip the switch and the voltage flows
The stronger the current, the stronger I pull
But when you turn me off, I must confess
I’m just another weak magnet like all of the rest
Electromagnet, that’s what I am
Electromagnet, let me say it again
Electromagnet, I can lift a car
Electromagnet, I’m a magnet star
Yeah!
Whoah!
Uh huh!
Hey!
Electromagnet, that’s what I am
Electromagnet, let me say it again
Electromagnet, I can lift a car
Electromagnet, I’m a magnet star
Yeah, electromagnet, that’s what I am
Electromagnet, let me say it again
Electromagnet, I can lift a car
Electromagnet, I’m a magnet star

Lullabye for Me
01:42
|

Sing a lullabye for me
cause I can’t sleep
I’m so tired
of counting sheep
A lullabye for me
cause I want sleep
the sheep are tired
of jumping over me
It would
be so sweet
if I could
just fall asleep
I’d have
a beautiful dream
so sing a
lullabye for me
(Third voice)
Goodnight Innocenzo
sleep tight Innocenzo
goodnight Innocenzo
