This is a song I wrote in 2006 for a film produced and directed by Michael McShane (look him and the film, The Votive Pit, up on imdb.com).

This is my solo project. I am the Mad Scientists. We (I) have done very few live performances over the years and have stuck mostly to the recorded medium. Mostly because of difficulties (currently being overcome) with performing multiple instruments all at one time while singing and entertaining. The latest upload is a song called High Flying. It's not exactly a finished song, it actually never has been (I wrote it like 5 years ago, but it's been developing since.) The lyrics are a little bit different than they are now, but not alot. I really think you'll like it.

Story behind the song
This song is written to the "hero" of The Votive Pit, the bald man. The bald man was played by Shamrock McShane, the director's daddy. He plays a teacher who is at the end of his rope at like the worst time that it could happen. School's a crazy place.
Lyrics
No time like the present No time like the now No way to feel the pain Of a thousand dead in the ground In the ground... Hey bald man What cha gonna teach us today? I don't have much to say I guess I'll go my own way I'm going I'm going up Up into the world, someday It's okay That you don't understand my ways So sorry It's time to go I really don't know anything Why it is these things occur and... I'm going I'm going up Up into the world, someday It's okay That you don't understand my ways... No time like the present No time like the now No way to feel the pain Of a thousand dead in the ground I'm going I'm going up Up into the world someday And it's okay That you don't understand my ways...
