AMERICA We are all America; all part of the pain and suffering and the agony of America; all feeding the agony and conflict of America - whether we are for or against or indifferent and unconcemed; whether we care or not. We will all be concerned in the outcome of America even if we don't feel concerned now. We all share the future. America eats its young - maybe. But America is also our child, is now how we all have made it; has become what we have wanted it to be. America reflects to us what we have come to. The state of America is our state. America eats its young. But we eat America, pollute it, abuse it, rape it, take from it, destroy it. As we give so do we receive. As we give to America and all her factions, so do we receive from America and all her factions. Do we give love or do we give fear and hate? America is racked with conflict; our conflict; the conflict of rich and poor, have and have not, black and white, male and female, order and chaos, hawk and dove, love and hate, old and young, right and left. But it's our conflict, not America's, no matter what side of the fence we are on. The question is: Does what we are doing from our particular side have positive or negative effects? Is what we are doing aimed at reconciliation of the conflict, or just getting our way at the other side's expense? What about the "opposition"? What do they feel? Or are we our own opposition, our own enemy? What is missing? What does America need most? What are her children lacking? How can we banish evil? What can we give to our enemies? Who is Satan? Christ help us: we are lost, lost in our fury, lost in our blame, lost in our apathy, Call to us, call to us! What can we give to our enemies? Love? Love our enemies? Love Satan? Love Satan????? What is love? How can we put love into action. Christ help us: it's not easy. How can we break the spiral that is breaking America, is breaking us? Christ teaches; If we want satisfaction, the only way we can have it is by giving it to people. Christ help us: it's not easy. Christ teaches: When we are able to love those around us whatever they might do or be, without blame, and without in any way separating what they are from what we are: then, and only then, can we be sure that we are fulfilled within ourselves. The only way is to love our enemies! Christ help us: it's not easy But it's the only way. What do you think, brothers and sisters?

For the very source of life engergies of Earth have become the castrated target of anile bamboozlery from homo sapliens' rabid attempts to manipulate the omnipotent Forces of Nature! Their directionless efforts to achieve the metaphysical state of godliness, aeons premature to evolutionary destiny have, indeed, become an invitation to species extinction. No less alarming are the individual actions of this reactionary and wayward life form - exploiting each other for unworthy and selfish aims. Specific inspissated ignoramuses of cankerous audacity... engaged professionally and/or morally in the unique practice of PIMPAFICATION. And in truth, this is a most damnable lifestyle to witness with mortal eyes! TOTAL domination of capital, material and creature comforts is ruthlessly sought through the exploitation of many. The squishy pubic balleys of female denizens...become slitted receptors of instantaneous carnal fulfillment - for a price, controlled by a male legion of parastical, prevariated, GODLESS PAGANS who exact their lifestyles to a terrible cost to their hosts... Gutless heathens with an unearthy lust for capital gain, dare to pimp off various nectars and spices of narcotic death upon the virgin bodies of their youth, who face inevitable enslavement to those TRIFFID PUSHERS of escapist hell... The napalm jelly and barbecue sandwich of war has become the ghoul/soul food of those who profit from the eternal conflicts as suppliers of the grisly table utensils of war machines, make the bloody feasts more 'polite'. Their capitalistic/egomaniac allies, the POLITICIANS, provide an unlimited supply of gore-spattered dessert, as their anile, verbal glibberings of multi-faceted, repetitive lies and oppressive ravings...confuse, paralyze and suck out the minds of their prey, the masses... Other immoralistic bumpkins seek out those of the opposite sex for shallow and/or selfish intentions. FINANCIAL SECURITY or an eternal supply of TRIM are sought under the veiled disguise of 'I-love-you-ism'. Such antics result in hideous versions/replays of 'playing on the side', fist'n'cuffs, the 'empty house trauma', monster alimony payments, unwed motherism, suicides, homicides and/or unloved offspring. For to pimp off LOVE is, verily, tampering with the all-encompassing destructive opposite, HATE! And with hate come DEATH... The colourless monster of RACISM is gleefully unchained by garrotted gibbons and hirsute hooligans, whose abbreviated mentalities cripple their own minds as the racist spectators cripple their victims' bodies... Premature ecological doom through the reactionary efforts of POLLUTING ENTERPRISES of capitalistic pimpism foreshadow Earth's demise. These cachetic mumruffians of madness continue to hasten total biological Armageddon of the 'benefit' of consumerism. And WITHOUT SHAME - declare their eventual victims as the bangling argle-bargles responsible for the ecological pimpster game that they cheerfully continue... BE IT KNOW, THEREFORE, THAT I HAVE FERULED to verbally ostracize these ostrobogulous oafs of occluded obliquity. The frenzied insipience of PIMPIFICATION hath risen to the point of cosmicide. Enough of this madness! CEASE! For I, to carnate my macrological rhetoric upon this wicked edifice of Babylon, truly care that the undeserving species of Man be snatched from self- destruction. Therefore, BECOME AWARE OF YOURSELVES! Become aware of your action ('the ass thou pimpest shall be thine own')! CEASE ALL MANNERS OF EXPLOITIVE JIVATION! Should there be some who would choose to ignore this maladroited message of doom, I further proclaim it to be the right of the noble followers of FUNKADELIA to counteract the inane, infantile antics of those pimpatory, sapless stooges and exploitive ecdysiasts of evil. FUNKADELIA IS UPON THEE! VERILY, those soulfulifically jaded swashbucklers of agitpropitic burnbabydom - FUNKADELIC - have descended from the Orginal Galaxy Ghetto to cleanse thy wayword souls THROUGH MUSIC worthy of the immortals themselves! LISTEN, and ye shall believe - when it come to pass... that what shall penetrate thine ears shall truly be a gas! But, FAIL those of FUNKADELIC, and thou shalt be cast away with the last vestiges of mental salvation. For the TRUTH is the WAY, and FUNKADELIC is, verily, TRUTH. AWAKE NOT, and Earth remains as this solar system's space strumpet...sour milk from the breast of MOTHER NATURE! AWAKE NOT, and FUNKADELIC, with its soulful followers, upon a predestined time, shall ascend to the heavens, and the wayward masses left behind will be further reduced by their own pimp games into the lunatic fringe of extinction. Unerringly, they will cease to exist, and after this forsaken firmament is pumped unto COSMIC SLOP...the rats and roaches will once again become the dominant Lords ofEarth!

And She birthed Apostles Ra, Hendrix, Stone & CLINTON to preserve all funkiness of man unto eternity...But! Frudulent forces of obnoxious JIVATION grew; Sun Ra strobed back to Saturn to await his Next Reincarnation, Jimi was forced back into basic atoms; Sly was co-opted into a jester monolith and...only seedling GEORGE remained! As it came to be, he did indeed, begat FUNKADELIC to restore Order Within The Universe. And nourished from the pamgrierian mammaristic melonpaps of Mother Nature, the followers of FUNKADELIA multiplied incessantly! BUT, within the bowels of Earth, reactionary NIXON-OUS HEATHENS sought to diminish their number and the Cosmic Strumpet grew afraid and called forth unto the realm of FUNKADELIA to combat those elements of defunkatization! Beyond the Rings of AMMAGAMMA-GOO-CHEE, I heard & did venture forth unto Her Pure & Immaculate Presence! "I, Sir IIeb...humbly approach thee to vow my services to annihilate the balmy bards who'd incense you! Aye, for your turbulent love forest beckons fair exchange!" (Heartily, I lusted for the steamy lash of Her tongue & the hot lash of SCIENCE-FRICTION THIGHS uponst me!) She spake in reply, "As it is, Maggot Minister...so shall this be! Go forth and slay those who spit upon FUNKADELIA without delayance! Lest you tarry in your mission, the GRIP OF THE FUNKAPUS shall evade thee forevermore!" Nor did I hesitate to motivate! My succulent, relampaquitalized bronze pinnacle would NOT BE DENIED VISITATION within that lecherous, lickspittable sanctum sanctorum! Not evenst! I departed & made all haste to the Interstellar Bodyshop. The speediest booglerizer, the PARLIAFUNKADELICMENT THANG...awaited my presence, equipped with optional servantobots; two nastified, hyperbolic druid wenches & several edible barbecuwhelks for squiffy inspiration.Fueled by atomic nookie vapours, our supreme bogard was due on Earth in mere trifles of time! WE JETTED down unto the treacherous habitats of Babylon in the name of FUNKADELIA! Within the Isle of Blight, we were beset by mongrel hordes of kung-fu crab carries, karate-kitted kangeroosters and sapidless streakers! The waxed carnals were dispersed in pieces, as their frenzied attacks proved futile! Other targets attacked from within dank, ghetto corridors; various supertrys, halfshafts, rambunctious niggaphites, slackmacks and clodfathers. Without hesitation, we rent them asunder! Gathering momentum, we proceeded betweenst the reputed Arches of Scrotum with the soul of incomprehensibical might...pausing to squash bourgeoisie nefarious neegrows who sought to escape doom in befouled, leather-topped, white-walled mopodillacs! And by the gods, the P.F.T. berserker machine descended to even lower depths to battle with blasphemous malodorfied legions of maggot-coloured honkiteers! Guarding their reeking nest, the PIT OF PENTACON, the foam-flecked degenerates filled the very air with watergate buggers and ensnarling webs of mysterian tape reels! But, before our strength...their agnewsque attack vexed by their own destruction! Numerous smolenites and blondshelled pogostick slurpers gathered, and then exploded into a rodanistic frenzy to smote me, but the infidels were unprepared for the bubbling, yellow-green death that I extracted forth in a deadly stream from my body... to eradicate them! Aye, a finale! ALAS! My mission accomplished, FUNKADELIA would remain preserved! Verily, I expected mucho filthy-McNastian jollies from the Queen Strumpet of my heart, but more paganistic jivation awaited me! En-route, I was almost waylaid by a quad of dayglo, scarlet slutties, who tempted the mechanics of my sex machine! But forthright, as they clustered about me with beglittered bellymuffs to suckulate my vital juices - I activated my hydraulic, stratoplat bunion mashers & stomped the lusty harlots into pissy droplets! I would be detoured not, from my deserved re-ward! REAPPPEARED, I DID BEFORE HER...my erectile mobus factor was engaged and phallic-stroker in ironic readiness! The Cosmic Strumpet of FUNKADELIA gazed uponst my sweaty bod with arduous satisfaction! My very atoms churned with the beginnings of nuclear prefission? She: "Behold, warrior - the Kingdom of the GODZILLATRON CUSH shal be yours" Nastily, you are STANDING ON THE VERGE OF GETTING IT ON! Partake!" And it came to pass that I did embrace & ravish Her Being...but in my unbridled ecstasy, I could - HANDLE IT NOT! Banishment to the SEWERS OF ORBITRON was my fate indeed, for unlike the Followers of FUNKADELIC...I would wait in limbo for precious eons to become; HOT, NASTY & LOOSE!

Full and forceful uponst man it was, Eternal Funk was nastily maintained to endure the skillions of Time. The Gods scoped the situation and proclaimed, "All is Cool". But! All was not Cool throughout the cosmos. The dynamics of ORDER & EQUILIBRIUM was being waylaid by new manners of triffidistic jivation fermenting on pagan planet Earth. A former turned bogardistic, and the star-spangled Kong of Babylon was unleashed to bully tidbit morsels of faraway lands. And one dawn's light brought the greedy presence forth, to confront another, the Commie Crudzilla. And Kong did indeed, fervently eye Crudzilla's new prize (aminute, Far Eastern Land) and spake, "Gimme some of that, Gibbs!" The Red Beast stirred with Fangs bared, "Be off, yellow running dog, imperialistic scum!" Fazed not, Kong went before the people of this land...armed with a false rap of salvation. But, they...being extremely hip to the Game...answered with, "No good, Number 10 - "LET'S TAKE IT TO THE STAGE!" Kong, angered & pissed...sent forth armoured goons, accompained by outstanding nasties as: Doctor Napalm, Professor Claymore and Reverend No-Grow. Against these odds, the black pagama mojo men arose from the people's hearts...and countervamped with hellhonnik fury! As it was, victory was the ultimate, but bitter triumph for the little people who sent the mammoth Kong back homeward reeling and smoking into worldwide breakface! And verily as I rap unto you from the real side of life, there was a young mortal named Ali, who was indeed the greatest - whupping heads between signifying. But, it came to pass that the law of the land did declare that he would be obligated to exterminate strangers in an unknown land. Ali refused to participate in the wrongful bloodlusts, and he was punished and lost his boxing title, from the serpentile representatives of so-called judiciary righteousiousness... With the passage of time, the was became no longer fun, and the games were indeed, reduced to a lesser level. Ali was without his crown of glory, but knew what time it was - "LET'S TAKE IT TO THE STAGE!" He then proceeded to rend asunder numerous lightweights, whiteweights, dumbweights and deadweights - and recaptured his glory! Justice prevails! And now, nebulous and neegroid nastificators lurk about within the realm of FUNKADELIA! Yes -certain goldplated warmongers are indeed - paranoid about their lesser brothers "Blowing Them Off The Stage!" Behindst the scenes, turbulent conflicts hath-up over the issue of 'you-go-first'-isms. Yes, under the very noses of their fans, these envious, blahflammative, dufus reactionary buffoons bicker, blabber and stew over such frivilous issues. Tempers hath flared at the bitter end of coin tosses and music equipment has been known to be mysteriously sabotaged in vengeance...or concert time bogarded away. Other acts have been committed and some are too dispicable for mortal ears. BUT - LET IT BE KNOWN: FUNKADELIC DON'T PLAY THAT! UPONST the madness of the world, FUNKADELIC prevails as the phallic berserker of HOPE. Yes! Battered and blammed by broxinated vapors of cancerous, riff-raff knuckleheadology, mopod molecule molesters, and spastic, phobic VUZ pegs of pulchritudinous jealousy...FUNKADELIC continues to rout such nitrod charlatans with powerdrive over-bites. FUNKADELIC do not bullshit the masses, because they are almighteous and the baddest thang happening within this entire dimension plane! Death on jivation, FUNKADELIC IS! As the mighteous live band in the known universe, let it be known that FUNKADELIC will play before any "name-brand" yokels, and verily-force-field them into scoured crawfish milk! "LET'S TAKE IT TO THE STAGE!" FUNKADELIA shall triumph! LET'S TAKE IT TO THE STAGE, mollyfocks!
