Greasy Wheels by King Saison, copyright 2022.

All my life I have heard people say things like, "I wish I was young enough to start learning that", or "I'm too old to do that now."  Society seems to put time constraints on what we can and cannot achieve as individuals based on our age. There is a stigma, and I want to challenge it.  65? Start learning the guitar.  10 yrs old?  Write your business plan. Don't be afraid to start over, or start something new.
 The moral of Greasy Wheels is that the act of pursuing your dreams--regardless of what age you start--is inherently more important than the time it takes you to achieve them. Don't give up, and keep rollin' your own way!

THIS, THAT, AND THE OTHER THING - LYRICS:
​
Too many people got too little patience,
And too much time to kill.
They stay the same, say they'll change,
But you know they never will.
You'd be so beautiful if you learned a smile,
Instead of always asking for more.
You'd be so worthwhile if you took the time, to
knock knock knock--on closed doors!
​
(Chorus)
This, that & the other thing,
You got a cell phone, but you let it ring.
Nobody can reach you, and they never will.
I say this, that & the other thing,
Are the reasons you don't learn anything.
Nobody can teach you, ain't got time to kill.
Nobody can reach you, and they never will.
For once in your life--make a change!
Give it a try, why don't you change? Why don't you change.
​
You got judgement written all over your face,
Step back, take a look, it's not your place
To criticize someone else's life--when you can't even handle your own.
Don't you get it? Don't you get it? Don't you get it? 
Does the light stay on in your mind when you shut--everyone out!
​
(Chorus)
​
(Bridge) 
Oh I'm not trying to be mean,
But I'm not tryin' to keep it clean.
You took the best years of my life away from me.
Oh and even though it hurts,
I know that it could've been worse.
But one more wrong, still wouldn't make it right... right?
​
(Chorus)
​
(Outro)
Why don't you change, why don't you change,
Why don't you even try?
Why don't you change, why don't you change,
Oh why? (4x)
