Name: Fear Of Everything
Duration: P00H06M04S
Description: I had this idea swimming around in my head for a while. Visited Jay Lane and Dave Shul at their San Francisco studio in July, with the notion that we would record something together. Someone asked, "Who has an idea?" So I chimed in, "I do!" And we made this. I sent the song to Shannon Wheeler and he drew the cover. And here it is!

lyrics

Fear of everything
Fear of success
Fear of failure
Fear of the rest
Fear of the government
Fear of not having one
Fear of falling in love
Or being all alone

Fear of complacency
Fear of action
Fear of things we need
And getting at them
Fear of losing it all
In a fit of passion
Fear of wasting away
Or ever lastin'

Fear of heights
Fear of lows
Fear of fungus
Between my toes
Fear of laws
Fear of claws
You get bit
Need some gauze

Fear of terrible twos
Fear of paying dues
Fear of waking up
And fear of sleeping too
Fear of poverty
Fear of employment
Fear of death and
Fear of enjoyment

Fear of everything
Fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of everything
Everything
Everything, you know

Fear of flying saucers
Cameras everywhere
Fear of lizard men
And Obamacare
Fear of your dad and mama
Something's under the bed
Fear of everything
Oh stop the drama

Fear of inertia (apathy, too)
Fear of wingnuts (crackpots)
Fear of elections
And insurrections
They're out to get us
Coming to get us
It's very serious
Oh wake up, sheeple (baa-a-ah!)

Fear of black and white
Red white and turning blue
State of emergency
And fear of plague too
Lock all the doors and windows
Keep well out of sight
Fear of those maniacs
On the left and right

Fear of the rabble
Who psychobabble
Fear of everything,
I do unravel
Fear of viruses
And vaccinations
Fear of everything
Across the nation

Fear of breaking up
A fear of staying put
Fear of sticking your neck out
Fear of smiling
Fear of the other
And the other's mother
Fear of what it means
To be their sisters and brothers

Fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of everything
Everything

Fear of freemasons
And secret spyware
Fear of Illuminati
And fear of bad hair
Fear of heaven
Fear of hell
Fear of witches
Casting spells

Fear of repeating myself
And doing it twice
Fear of pestilence
Fear of clowns
Fear in here
Fear over there
I'm finding fear
In everywhere

Fear of cut and paste
Fear of science
Fear of being in touch
Fear of silence
Fear of priests and lawyers
And halitosis
Fear of all the tickets
And my neurosis

Fear of waiting for the sun to shine
Fear of waiting for the sun to fall down
Fear of everything I ever did and wanted
Fear of this and fear of that and fear the house is haunted

Fear of feeling
Fear of talking
Fear of listening
Fear of trying
Fear of worrying
Worrying about fearing
Fear of every every every little thing, fear

Fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of fear of everything
Everything, you know

Aaaaah, Everything
Aaaaah, Everything
