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 humongous
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
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
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
"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"
Long, long away 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
We're the last of our clan
And we come from a dying land
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
"Narluga, Narluga
Narluga, Narluga"

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.
"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

Sasquatch Sees 8 Colors
01:59

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!
The present is the thing, past and future are fiction
If you want to be happy, you’ve got to set illusions free
Freedom’s only freedom when, everyone is free to sing
The force that makes the stars to shine, is also what ferments your wine
When your self is empty is, when the universe can bless
Peace must come from inside you, and radiate through all you do
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

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
7 Sasquatches were suddenly one
And stood there shining in the morning sun
7 Sasquatches were suddenly one
And stood there shining in the morning sun
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green,
Blue, Indigo, & Violet, too, &
Subterranean Green
Subterranean Green
Subterranean Green
Subterranean Green

3-Layer Brain Cake
02:47

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
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

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

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 the messiah, but I’m here to help.”

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
