Rewrote the lyrics, laid a new vocal ... and remixed. This is a bit of a swing rock protest song.
All Those Lessons We've Forgotten
Yeah I don’t find
That there are any shorter welfare lines
Yeah I don’t find
There’s much a difference
After all
A wall’s a wall
... and they’re all the same
Watch the rich keep getting richer as a wider chasm grows
Yeah you think we'd all know better
All those lessons we've forgotten
Piraticians making money
... as we reap all that they sow.
Sometimes symptomatic surface
belies sycophantic service
Why assert "We are deserving"
When in fact you stole the show
Yeah I don’t find
There’s any difference after all
Both take their toll
And we wind up the same
It don't matter who you vote for because money bought their souls
Yeah you’d think we’d all know better
All those lessons we’ve forgotten
Just in case you fell asleep
The Inner party’s in control
Current symptomatic problems
Stem from sycophantic service
Starting wars can be distracting
When in fact you stole the show
It’s gotta stop
Oh yeah, it’s gotta stop
Oh, whoever thought they'd be so bold
Who's on a roll?
Who's on the dole?
Who stole the show?
Turn on the light when it hits home ...
Any/all comments warmly appreciated.
