New song still early in the process. No music yet. Comments and criticisms appreciated as always.


I approve of this message
to the cursed
the blessed
can't you see that I care for
the sick and the wretched
And I hold the cure for the
the diseased
and infected
I'll fix everything
If i can just get elected

(chorus)
They aren't really lies if our purpose is true
We're just staying on message our message to you
You're damned if you don't and you're damned if you do
You've got shit in both hands and you have to choose

I approve of this message
you're subjected
affected
It's easy to swallow
but hard to digest it
I know what I said
words regretted
corrected
I filled the syringe
but I never injected

Chorus

(break)
The truth doesn't play well at all in this game
At times I might sound like i'm batshit insane
take with salt by the cup not the grain
Don't like it? my opponent is exactly the same

I approve of this message
dissected
resurrected
I'll fan fires of lies
while the truth is neglected
this bullshit runs deep
and it's interconnected
I've got one word on my mind
and that words' reelected

Chorus x 2

Dude! I love this. Although, I think I'd change it to "I approve this message" instead of "I approve of this message".

And I absolutely love this line:

take with salt by the cup not the grain
 
^^^^^ I agree ^^^^
Excellent - well written and reads like a charm! :D:cool::D:cool:

Thanks!
You are correct it should be I approve this message. I can't believe I missed that!

Thanks! Glad you like it!
 
I always thought they said "My name is _____, and I approved this message." past tense rather than present. if present tense, then "approve of" would be grammatically correct.

But intense song; keep it up! :D
 
Good stuff - the salt - cup - grain line is very cool!

Which ever way you choose to go with the "approve this message" line, the point is clear!

If I'm being nit-picky lately, I do apologize. Seem to have fallen into something of a funk and it seems to be affecting my diplomacy and people skills. Take what I say with a grain of salt, or a cup. :)

No way! Nit-picky can be very helpful and I always appreciate your well though out (sometimes over thought out:)) critiques. It's not like you are ever rude or insulting. You're a class act JD don't sweat it.

As far as "I approve of" or "I approve this" since it fits either way I might as well get it right. I'll subject myself to a political ad or two next time I turn on the TV and see what they say.
