The nothing is wrong blues

Someday, if things go well, I’m going to write the nothing is wrong blues
Long after a certain drama queen we all know will have stopped dominating the news.

I just won't know how to negotiate these days that are so long.
It’s not easy singing the blues when there’s nothing wrong.

When the soul troller came to town, we really got to know our neighbors more.
Now, though, they're back the way they were, which is actually kind of a bore.

Life was interesting when that man put on his apprentice show.
Why he could do anything; there was nothing he did not know.

He was the epitome of perfection; he was the end,
so fantastically great that we'd never need vote again,

who was going to take care of all decisions automatically
and forget all that nonsense about rank democracy.

His was a vision of Aryan Supremacy and a divine autocracy
to replace 250 years of  constitutional republican democracy.

And there we were about to sign on the dotted line.
And then we had an epiphany some said was fine.

For all the shortcomings of democracy, there is one nice feature.
You can always say no thank you, next please, to the creature

who would con us with his gimmicks that sort of resemble gold
but is really a bag of tricks played upon fools young and old.

And so here I am again singing the nothing is wrong blues
which will last a long time or until I go look at the news.

A Proud and Servile Nitwit

When it comes to alt-facts I entrust my family to,
only the Trump brand of alt-facts will do.

And I'm so thrilled with what I get
being a good little servile nitwit.

Yes we on the alt-right do take a great deal of alt-pride
in having the alt-truth and the alt-law on our alt-side.

And we are so thrilled with everything we get
being good little servile nitwits.

No alt-law abiding citizen has anything to fear
unless one is Muslim, black, brown, or queer,

or in any other way is not so thrilled with what they get
when they choose to be an enemy of us servile nitwits.

Oh well now, when Massa Cahbun say, yall sell dem chillaren on down de ole riva,
we servile nitwits pipe right back with yah suh, Massa Cahbun, yah suh,

and we are so thrilled with everything we get.
And that is why I am so good and obedient a servile nitwit.

Look here, brother.

I'm not trying to jive you with any sort of cosmic debris,
'cause I have no clue  either, you see.

Please don't be so hard on stupidity.
I suspect the best that humanity

can achieve is a strategy
in which we are aware of and minimize mine and yours, stupidity,

while grasping there's no finality
but rather on ongoing effort that we

endeavor within a strategy
to minimize our stupidity.

Our stupidity,
oh yah, is alive in you and in me, our stupidity.

Now I rather suspect the very best that the very best that humanity
can achieve is a strategy

to be aware of and therefore minimize stupidity
In you and me. Oh yeah, in you and me.

My music doesn't come out of San Francisco. It doesn't come out of Detroit. It doesn't come out of the Mississippi Delta. I'd be proud if it did but it's not trying to be that. My music comes out of Mormon country, USA, within a place, within a period of history, within this culture. I'm trying embrace my LDS, my progressive, and my ultra conservative loved ones.
