Lyrics:

Patently unworthy to aspire to royalty,
Doubtlessly a poor, deluded, peasant family,
Urged along by foreigners proclaiming prophecies--
I can smell the scent familiar of rebellion

I can see the shadows of the vultures' patient wings;
Miscreants and fools would love to make or be made king
In the end, they're happy just to spread their suffering:
This situation calls for my solution

House of Confusion (Part 1)

Lyrics:

Caiaphas:
Hear ye, hear ye, let the trial begin;
Bring the guilty, I mean the accuséd one, in
Let witnesses come, let us hear, let us see--
I'm sure we will find that their charges agree

The Bat Shattered

The bat shattered.

The batter twisted his body with uncoiled power, and with all his strength, took aim at the advancing ball.  The ball and bat made contact, and the super-high-speed camera caught the dozen or so fragments of wood in mid-air, spinning and separating, floating and falling to the earth.

It was a foul ball, so he was given another chance.

For a fraction of a second, the ball and bat collided with some eight thousand pounds of pressure.  It’s no wonder the bat shattered.  Eight thousand pounds.  Four tons.
