about

This song that I've written is my contribution to the "Resistance", and the need for awareness and vigilance in the troubling, politically charged environment that is America now.

lyrics

NEXT TIME

ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND THEY GO –
THESE CLOWNS EVER QUIT?? I GOT TO KNOW!!
WILL OF THE PEOPLE ALWAYS GOT TO WAIT
TIL POLITICIAN’S GRAB THEIR PIECE OF THE CAKE
LEFT HANDS LOST TO WHAT THE RIGHT ONE DOIN
BACKHAND /BACK DOOR / BACK ROOM SCREWIN

MAD MEN BARKIN FROM THE TV SCREEN
HUCKSTERS HAWKIN THE AMERICAN DREAM
PROMISE THE STARS NUTHIN'S TOO EXTREME
BUT ONCE THEY GOT YOUR VOTE HERE COME THE VASELINE
PORN BEIN PLIED LIKE AMPHETAMINES,
BUT THE BELTWAY CON IS MUCH MORE OBSCENE

EDUCATED SUITS DISGUISIN THEIR LIES
A BLIND EYED PUBLIC BUYIN PIE IN THE SKY

(Chorus)
BUT NEXT TIME WE’LL SEE THE WARNIN SIGNS
NOWS THE TIME PROTECT WHATS YOURS N MINE
GOT NO TIME FOR LETTIN DOWN OUR GUARD
GOTTA POUNCE RIGHT ON EM LIKE A JAG-U-AR!
STOMP EM OUT LIKE AN OLD CIGAR
STOMP EM OUT LIKE AN OLD CIGAR

SAME SAD TALE, NEW SET OF SCAMS
PAYIN THE WOLF TO GO FEAST ON THE LAMBS
GAME'S THE SAME, PREYIN ON FOOLS
STAND YOUR GROUND OR PLAY BY THEIR RULES
WITH YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND, THE TARGET'S YOUR ASS
IF YOU’RE RIDIN THEIR BULL YOU’VE DONE GIVE EM A PASS

EDUCATED SUITS DISGUISIN THEIR LIES
A BLIND EYED PUBLIC BUYIN PIE IN THE SKY

BUT NEXT TIME WE’LL SEE THE WARNIN SIGNS
NOWS THE TIME PROTECT WHATS YOURS N MINE
GOT NO TIME FOR LETTIN DOWN OUR GUARD
GOTTA POUNCE RIGHT ON EM LIKE A JAG-U-AR!
STOMP EM OUT LIKE AN OLD CIGAR
STOMP EM OUT LIKE AN OLD CIGAR
