Democracy Lost

Billionaires paying no taxes
The presidents a felon
When he opens his mouth
There’s a rat you’ll be smelling
The truths a lie
Lies are facts
When listening to
That Fox news crap
4 more years
Of crazy drama
Republicans suckling Trump
Likes he’s their mama
Spewing hate and division
Gaining power like Hitler 
Selling his brand
To the highest bider
America, America
What a shame
The experiment failed
Only ourselves to blame
No one spoke up 
When they came for you and me
Now there’s no one left
To save our liberty
Bezos, Zuckerberg 
And Elon Musk
Greed and money
In gold they trust 
Call themselves patriots
Saluting their king
Kissing his ass
Like it’s a gold ring
Disrespects women
‘and gets kinda pushy 
Say’s they can trust him
While he’s grabbing their #@%$
Hair colored orange
Replaces red white and blue
If ya piss on the constitution
He’ll pardon you
Repeat Chorus

Your Memories I Borrowed—A Freak Like Me

I was always hanging and trying to fit it. Trying to belong to something or be pert of something. I was awkward and weird and a lonely outsider…….. Kinda like today, if ya know what I mean.

Before Someone Shot Lennon (You can’t make new old friends)

I Grew up
In simpler times
In a small town
Back when the world was still kind

Didn’t have much money
Road trips in rusty cars
Played the hell out of 3 chords
On our beat up old guitars

Thought we were cool
We were gonna change the world
We sang “All ya need is love”
Back before someone shot Lennon

Listened to vinyl records
Music set us free
People over thirty
We couldn’t trust or believe

I’m going back
To all those good times
Kodachrome memories
With all my old friends

No matter where we go
No matter where we’ve been
One thing for certain
You can’t make, “New old friends”

Smashed my cell phone
Threw a brick at my Big Screen
Lets sit down in the backyard
Where we once shared all our dreams

Lets look at old photo albums
When our hair was long
And we wore yesterday smiles
Life’s a vapor, Here then gone

Campouts and keggers
Cut offs and ball caps
bonfires down at the river
Cold beers and cheap grass

Exaggerated our victories
Minimizing our loses
Where did the time go
Summers once lasted forever

I’m going back
So many good times
Kodachrome memories
You’re a lifelong friend of mine

No matter where we go
No matter where we’ve been
One thing for certain
We can’t make, “New old friends”

I’m Gonna Treat Ya Like You’re Not My Wife

If you were my lover

I’d hold ya tight

But you ain’t my lover

You’re just my wife 

If you were my lover

I’d make ya moan and scream

But you’re not my lover

Who gets naked in my dreams

If you were my lover

I wouldn’t holler you wouldn’t bitch

But you’re not my lover

You no longer scratch my itch

If you were my lover

I’d take ya home

But you’re not my lover

So I’m sleeping alone

I’m gonna take ya on a date

I’m gonna treat ya right

I’m gonna treat like a girlfriend

I’m gonna treat ya like you’re not my wife

If you were my lover

I’d give ya hugs and kisses

But I’m not your lover

You’re not my mistress

If you were my lover

You’d be my fantasy

But you’re not my lover

What ya get is what ya see

If you were my lover

I’d take you to bed

But I’m not my lover

That’s what you said

If you were my lover

I’d ask you to marry me

But you’r not my lover

You’re already my wife ya see

I’m gonna take ya on a date

I’m gonna treat ya right

I’m gonna treat like a girlfriend

I’m gonna treat ya like you’re not my wife
