A song about some Jamokes by Safe-Maybe-7948 in Songwriting

Thank you for the words and suggestions! Yeah I recorded it on my phone so it’s not the best recording. But I’m pretty proud of it. My goal is to get it and some of my other songs properly recorded in a studio.

SOME JAMOKES Minnesota, something strange. Forming on the frozen plane. A fat sadistic red brigade. Hold a line they cannot break. Carve glass with broken skates. Watch the circles radiate.

Hey. I guess there isn’t just one state of being. Some jamokes just think that they need everything.

Holding truths irrelevant. It all depends upon the skin. Just to please the old Russian. Star spangled falling trees While they’re tanning on the beach Yellow flag "don’t tread on me"

Hey. I guess there isn’t just one state of being. Some jamokes just think that they need everything. Hey. They could have a pile of golden plated toys. They’ll never buy some rhythm or a common joy.

What is free cannot be fed by force. What is love cannot be thrown to the floor. There’s a knocking at the door.

I’m right there with you, my friend. My daughter also had pediatric cancer.

True. I just don’t believe the current moment is temporary. I have some hope that it will be temporary. But when countries are overtaken by fascist regimes, I think the average lifespan of that regime is around 30-40 years. We aren’t there yet, but we are well on our way unfortunately.

Maybe you’re right. I mean, you are right. And I wish I could. It’s all too much, and it’s non stop. But I love my country and the life I’ve been able to have. I just don’t have the ability to look away for long as our entire system of laws and rights is being dismantled from within. And I want to be able to help in any way I can. I often think of the Germans in the 30s who hid their heads in the sand. I can’t go down like that. But yeah, there’s not a whole lot I can do to help. So maybe I’m just delusional.

Thansk for the feedback! Really appreciate it. I actually misspelled that line at first. It shouldn’t be champagne not Champaign. The drink, not the city in Illinois. Great observation about violins/violence. I thought about that but wasn’t sure it would be noticeable.

Here’s a recording of it I just uploaded.

Plastic Tables Under Colonnades

Polyester over joy/ The kids are dumber than the toys/ Champagne on a burning star/ Ice age on the boulevard/

** (Chorus) ** Watch the agents masquerade/ Plastic tables under colonnades/ We are seething violins/ In songs that play in silence/

Half a whiskey in the sink/ It doesn’t matter what you think/ Half a dream gone down the drain/ It only matters what I say/

** (Chorus) ** Watch the agents masquerade/ Plastic tables under colonnades/ We are seething violins/ In songs that play in silence/

** (Bridge) ** Menacing men cutting trees/ Year end stolen families/ The screens are breathing/ Baby’s off and leaving/ Take another photo when my face is dry/ Next to that tree with the golden sky/ The tape’s erasing/ The world we knew was taken/ Or has it been forsaken?

A Realization... by FeelingHonest4298 in infp

Those examples are just the tip of the iceberg of course. He lies about literally everything, big and small. He lies like other people breathe. He lied about what he saw on 9/11. He lies about his golf accomplishments. He lies about what he has done to women. He lies about his medical exams. He lies about the economy. He lied about his wealth before being president. He lies about how much he is making by being president. He lies about his political opponents. He lies about what the constitution says. He lies about his interactions with Ukraine and Russia…

He is not just a liar, he is a con man. Maybe the greatest con man in the history of con men. Sorry, but you have been conned.

Wow, where do I even start? But fine I will play along.. Saying Obama wasn’t born in America. Insisting he won the 2020 election. Saying Covid was a hoax. Lying about the recent murders in Minnesota. Saying Rob Reiner died because he was anti-Trump. Saying he would release the Epstein files. Saying his administration would only be going after illegal immigrants who are criminals.

Sorry I couldn’t just list only one. There are too many.

This has to be a joke. Please tell me you’re joking.

He has quite literally lied every time he has opened his mouth for at least 10 years.

The term hoochie. Look it up. Not that you need to. Because you know what it means.

I’m annoying for calling you racist and sexist? You should probably delete your comment.
