A. The Gospel According to Narluga I don’t wanna preach, we’ve had enough of that I don’t wanna screech, I’m not that kinda cat He’s come down among us, he’s hairy and humungous And He’s come to show us the way Show us the way, to a brighter today Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space He’s come down among us, he’s hairy and humungous He’s come to show us the way (go right into next song) B. Yestergo and Longaway I was walking in the woods one day, what do you think I saw? It was a peaceful, pleasant day, what do you think I saw? Suddenly to my surprise, what do you think I saw? Something taking very big strides, what do you think I saw? It was a hairy-looking, big-footed, arm-swinging, ape-looking man I stopped and stared, froze and shook, I jumped up, and I ran, and I ran I was walking in the woods one day, what do you think I saw? It was a peaceful, pleasant day, what do you think I saw? Suddenly to my surprise, what do you think I saw? Something taking very big strides, what do you think I saw? It was a hairy-looking, big-footed, arm-swinging, ape-looking man I stopped and stared, froze and shook, I jumped up, and I ran, and I ran C. Sasquatchelepathy Come back he said inside my head, the time is late I must relate Here comes the dusk and so I must, give these words to you Fear not we come in peace to this land of a distant sun To the people and the trees the truth is we’re all one There are 7 colors in the spectrum that you’ve seen But it’s important that you know subterranean green D. Narluga: Origins Long, long ago in the distant future There will be a man by the name of Narluga He'll come from the land that we now call Alaska His parents will say, "Son, we gotta ask ya For we come from a dying land And we're the last of our clan Won't travel the time bridge and stop this If you can "Narluga, Narluga Narluga, Narluga "Our great grandfather's weren't so great They certainly weren't the brightest primates They didn't have much respect for this place They poisoned their own living space So go back into the past Go now and do it fast Tell them their way of living just can't last Narluga, Narluga Narluga, Narluga

A. Digitial In-Your-Face What’s with all these robots walking down the street? Everybody’s plugged into their phones. What’s with all these robots staring at their feet? Everybody looks like fashion clones. Everybody looks like angry drones Sitting at the coffee shop Eating their serious scones So seriously. I mean, seriously! My name is Narluga, I come from the future A possible one, anyway Named after a fish that does not yet exist Really a mammal, but hey I’ve come to proclaim “Hang your head now in shame Or do something ‘bout it instead.” I was on the time bridge overlooking the ridge Sasquatch was there and he said, How can you be yourself if you’ve never met before? Riding the mechanical bull of thoughts? How can you know what’s inside if you’ve never opened the door? Advertising space sold and bought. You’ve learned all that they’ve taught. Sitting in the classroom Like a sponge saying “What have you got?” As you soak it all in And it stews within. B. I'm Ready for the Yeti You’re more than the sum of the advertising slogans in your wardrobe. You’re more than a portal, an internet wormhole trading useless information for social validation. I’m ready for the yeti I’m ready for the yeti I’m ready for the yeti I’m ready

A. Sasquatch Sees 8 Colors Sasquatch sees 8 colors, red orange yellow green blue Sasquatch sees 8 colors, indigo and violet too But the 8th color the Sasquatch sees, that’s invisible to you and me Is the color in between, we’ll call it subterranean green, chock-a-doodle-bop! B. Spectrophonocode (Red)-The present is the thing, past and future are fiction (Orange)-If you want to be happy, you’ve got to set illusions free (Yellow)-Freedom’s only freedom when, everyone is free to sing (Green)-The force that makes the stars to shine, is also what ferments your wine (Blue)-When your self is empty is, when the universe can bless (Indigo)-Peace must come from inside you, and radiate through all you do (Violet)-The thought of thinking thoughts, is always just another thought Subterranean Green we are all one if you know what I mean Subterranean Green we are all one if you know what I mean Subterranean Green we are all one if you know what I mean Subterranean Green we are all one if you know what I mean

A. By the Waterfall The Sasquatch and I sat down by and by By a waterfall in the trees We smoked a pipe that tasted real nice And one Sasquatch turned to three The Sasquatches three explained to me Emptiness, freedom, and now Till I understood and I felt that I should Pass this along somehow Then three Sasquatches turned into 7 And one more I couldn’t see We talked for awhile then they started to smile Then they said we should sit & be B. The Sasquatch That Can Be Named (Is Not the True Sasquatch) Seven Sasquatches were suddenly one And stood there shining in the morning sun Seven Sasquatches were suddenly one And stood there shining in the morning sun Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet Subterranean Green Subterranean Green Subterranean Green Subterranean Green

A. 3-Layer Brain Cake 3 layer brain cake, 3 layer brain Sometimes I think that I’m going insane Reptile, mammal, and primate as well 3 layer brain cake’s delicious as hell Sometimes I try to let all the thoughts go Sink down in the quiet where primates don’t go Layer by layer the clouds drift away Peaceful and tranquil, a clear blue sky day 3 layer brain cake, the sasquatches know Meditation integration jubilation and so Let’s find the still point that’s no point at all Because pointlessness is the point of it all B. Spaceships That Look Like Bubbles Spaceships that look like bubbles They don’t wanna cause no trouble Won’t leave our planet in rubble They want peace and that goes double Sasquatch! He wants to free your mind Spaceships that look like bubbles They don’t wanna cause no trouble Won’t leave our planet in rubble They want peace and that goes double Sasquatch! He wants to free your mind

Sasquatch Woman (A Possible Future) Sasquatch woman I love you Sasquatch woman I'm thinking of you Your long and flowing hair all over your body When we walk hand in hand Across this wasted land Will the people and yetis look at us oddly? I just can't describe This hunger and this drive To have you Sasquatch woman by my side The things you make me feel Are just so unreal Sasquatch woman we'll do more than survive

A. Elias Bates Meets a Great Bear in a Forest Grotto Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space Traveled the time bridge to save the human race Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space Traveled the time bridge to save the human race He says, “I can’t save you, you’ve gotta save yourself I’m not a messiah, but I’m here to help.” Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space Traveled the time bridge to save the human race Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space Traveled the time bridge to save the human race He says, “I can’t save you, you’ve gotta save yourself I’m not a messiah, but I’m here to help.” Inter-dimensional Sasquatch from outer-space Part B: Same Chords as Part A 6 or more x’s B. Sundance of Ascendance So we sing this Sasquatch song From Japan to Saskatchewan, From England’s shores to the River Nile Sasquatch you’ve returned our smile So if you’re looking for peace and love Don’t look out there, don’t look above For Sasquatch lives inside of you’re heart and mine And you know he’s been there the whole time So we sing this Sasquatch song From Japan to Saskatchewan, From England’s shores to the River Nile Sasquatch you’ve returned our smile So we sing this Sasquatch song From Japan to Saskatchewan, From England’s shores to the River Nile Sasquatch you’ve returned our smile

about

In this thyme of post-modem contrivances & re-packaged food stuffs, the inhabituals of the earth & the earth herself are suffer-ing from a most dead-full dis-ease. But living in our midstses is a race of hairy hominids who have been traveling a secret space-thyme bridge between our home & their own for ages, waiting & watching for the rite thyme to share their wizdumb w/ us.

That thyme has not yet come.

However, at a future point in the history of our specious there will be a humane man named Narluga (named after the future offspring of the narwhal & the beluga whale who will be brought together by eco-logical necessitude). The man Narluga will discover that mythic space-thyme bridge & be-friend the big-footed pri-mates. To-gether they will travel backward in thyme to now.

& here they are!

They bring w/ them their or-ganic technologie (for instants, the spectrophonograph that tranzlates the Sasquatch language, which is made up of visible light waves, into thots which we can per-ceive). They are not save-yours, per se, but rather they are here to insist that the path to salv-ation is w/ in you & w/ in ea. of us.

This is their storie--the storie of the Sasquatch & the storie of Narluga. And this is our storie--the storie of how we will come to know peace, love, happi-ness, & free-dom, 1st in our harts & then on our planet. Subterranean green to ea. of you, my friends.
