the clearing
by Goldie Peacock
the energy
the energy
the energy
in this house
is just so negative
so damn negative
positive vibes only
no others need apply
gotta clear
gotta clear
gotta clear
the energy
find the incense
strike a match
house explodes in fireball
oops there was a gas leak
the energy is now clear
