Right or wrong it won't matter long...
Work is progressing on the CD.. got the cover art proofs approved and sent off this week. Still hoping to get the CD's in by end of September.
Meanwhile, here's the title track.
Yesterday's issue was all about the money.
I heard a joke but it really wasn't funny.
I found something but it can't be what I'm after.
It's just a bunch of lies hiding in some laughter.
Seems some people are living out their dream now
at the expense of the 90th percentile.
Seeing life through a rose colored looking glass.
Do your part to perpetuate a lower class.
We didn't hire you to mess up our society.
We don't care about appearances of piety.
Your religious is the practice of deception.
Worship manipulation of perception.
Can't we stop acting like kids fighting all the time?
Choosing up sides until there's no one in the middle.
Politicians lost in a maze of the hypocritical.
Selling common sense on the street for a nickel.
Couldn't find a buyer for my hammer and sickel.
Lots of little Hitlers running on the loose everywhere.
Final solutions are a dime a dozen if you care.
History doesn't matter 'cause we'll all be dead anyway.
If we speed the rapture maybe they will all fly away.
We didn't hire you to mess up our society.
We don't care about appearances of piety.
Your religion is the practice of deception.
Worship manipulation of perception.
Can't we stop acting like kids fighting all the time?
Right or wrong it won't matter long,
A divided house cannot be strong.
For those that care, here's a line by line "songwriter's commentary" on the above...
