I’m not a huge fan of this one (maybe it’s the ending I don’t like, the ‘added’ lyrics after the actual song would normally be done) and, as I said in my last post, I was just gonna dismiss it, dismiss it as simply time spent trying. All about the trying right? But I just can’t though. Not gonna dismiss words well worked, plus I did get a thumbs up on them from my pal Rick after sending him a draft. I trust him … and I really kick it out on the third chorus. Hey, can’t just let kickin’ it out on the third chorus go for naught now can ya? HeHeHe.
(to the tune of “Late In The Evening”)
Gettin’ Late For Democracy
The thing we got’s remember
As we lie scared in our beds
Is that there are things that we just have to do
Lethal orange self interest
That is ruling a corrupted roost
That doesn’t really care for a me or you-ou
It’s getting’ late for Democracy
Unless we find a way stay true-ue
We find ourselves at a crossroads now
Where truth is only framed a load
Of some angry liberal lying shit
We have incompetent’s at every spot
Who are really nothing more than sharks
Throwing chum for self as they try to clear the pool
It’s gettin’ late for democracy
Unless we really hit the mark
It is now we have to hit this mark
To walk in a less contentious park
But one where we are still allowed to breathe
It highlights a propagandist blight
An affront to everything that’s right
While pointing out the obvious of lies
It’s gettin’ late for democracy
Unless we can get this right
(break)
Need to fight William Low Barr
Who’s so corrupted rule of law
And thinks Prez is that one and only rule
He seems to feel there is no law
That Prez isn’t always above
To the detriment of a me and you
It’s getting’ late for Democracy
And that is ALLLL a me and you
(break)
Wanna set the record straight
Dismiss the talk of great
That isn’t what this is all about
Cause it’s obvious that ain’t the case now
Cries of fake a wheelhouse take
Of news that doesn’t rate
It doesn’t fit the narrative of state
