1. FIGHT TEST

I thought I was smart, I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight, I thought there was a
Virtue in always being cool, so when it came time to
Fight I thought I'll just step aside and that time would
Prove you wrong and that you would be the fool

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery

Oh to fight is to defend if it's not
Now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up
And be a man for to lose I could accept but to surrender
I just wet and regretted this moment oh that I
I was the fool

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
Own life, it's all a mystery

Cause I'm a man not a boy and there are things
You can't avoid you have to face them when you're not prepared
To face them
If I could I would but you're with him now it'd do no good
I should have fought him but instead I let him
I let him take it

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
Own life, it's all a mystery


2. ONE MORE ROBOT / SYMPATHY 3000-21

Unit three thousand twenty one is warning
Makes a humming sound, when its circuits
Duplicate emotions and a sense of coldness detaches
As it tries to comfort your sadness

One more robot learns to be something more than
A machine when it tries the way it does make it seem
Like it can love
Cause it's hard to say what's real when you know the
Why you feel, is it wrong to think it's love
When it tries the way it does

Feeling a synthetic kind of love
Dreaming a sympathetic wish
As the lights blink faster and brighter

One more robot learns to be something more than
A machine when it tries the way it does make it seem
Like it can love
Cause it's hard to say what's real when you know the
Why you feel, is it wrong to think it's love
When it tries the way it does


3. YOSHINI BATTLES THE PINK ROBOTS PART 1

Her name is Yoshimi, she's a black belt in karate
Working for the city, she has to discipline her body
Because she knows that it's demanding to defeat these
Evil machines, I know she can beat them

Oh Yoshimi
They don't believe me
But you won't let those
Robots defeat me
Oh Yoshimi
They don't believe me
But you won't let those
Robots eat me

Those evil natured robots, they're programmed to
Destroy us - She's gotta be strong to fight them
So she's taking lots of vitamins because she knows that
It'd be tragic if those evil robots win, I know
She can beat them


4. YOSHINI BATTLES THE PINK ROBOTS PART 2

(Instrumental)


5. IN THE MORNING OF THE MAGICIANS

In the morning I'd awake and couldn't remember
What is love and what is hate - the calculations error
Oh what is love and what is hate
And why does it matter, is to love just a waste
Why does it matter oh oh oh

As the dawn began to break - I had to surrender
The universe will have its way - to powerful to master
Oh-oh-oh-what is love and what is hate
And why does it matter - is to love just a waste
Why does it matter oh oh oh


6. EGO TRIPPING AT THE GATES OF HELL

I was waiting on a moment
But the moment never came
All the billion other moments
We're just slipping all away
I must have been tripping
Just ego tripping

I was wanting you to love me
But your love it never came
All the other love around me
Was just wasting all away
I must have been tripping
Just ego tripping

I was waiting on a moment
But the moment never came
But the moment never came


7. ARE YOU A HYPNOTIST?

I had forgiven you for tricking me again
But I have been tricked again
Into forgiving you
What is this?
Are you some kind of hypnotist?
Waving your powers around - the sun eclipse behind the cloud

I thought I recognized your face
Amongst all of those strangers
But I am the stranger now
Amongst all of the recognized
What is this?
Are you some kind of hypnotist?
Waving your powers around - the sun eclipse behind the cloud


8. IT‘S SUMMERTIME

It's summertime and I can understand if you
Still feel sad
It's summertime and though it's hard to see its true
Possibilities

When you look inside all you'll see
When you look inside all you'll see
Is a self-reflected inner sadness
Look outside I know that you'll
Recognize it's summertime


9. DO YOU REALIZE??

Do You Realize that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize we're floating in space -
Do You Realize that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize oh oh oh
Do You Realize that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Do You Realize that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize


10. ALL WE HAVE IS NOW

As logic stands you couldn't meet a man
Who's from the future
But logic broke as he appeared he spoke
About the Future
"We're not gonna make it"
He explained how the end will come
You and me were never meant to be part of the future

All we have is now
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now

I noticed that he had a watch and hat
That looked familiar
He was me - from a dimension torn free
Of the future
"We're not gonna make it"
He explained how the end will come
You and me were never meant to be part of the future

All we have is now
All we've ever had was now
All we have is now
All we'll ever have is now

All we have is now
