Sort of an undemocratic approach to saving democracy, don't you think?
******************* 
For this one, I rounded up my fantasy band, the Famous Texas Men Of Note, to perform at the imaginary Seven Sisters Dance Hall, some 40 miles west of Austin, in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.  The crowd wasn’t huge that night, but it was plenty raucous.  Needless to say, we brought the house down.  We always do.

LYRICS
Finally bagged the prize,
Event commemorated with a photograph,
A delightful list of crimes,
Got ‘em prancin’ with the lawyers down the primrose path,
The scribes down in the court,
Breathlessly report,
With a glee they can’t contain,

Oh they’re giddy….

Giddy like the rats that swarm the sewage slag,
Giddy like the vultures, feasting on the rotted culture,
That has spawned them from its womb,
And they tell us all how grateful we should be,
Cause they’re doing it to save democracy.
 
Yeah all fortitude & grit,
Our protectors wouldn’t quit,
On this noble quest,
There would be no rest,
Staged sudden raids, drew dossiers,
Tried Russian links, threw kitchen sinks,
To cage the dreaded pest,
Damn the proper form,
They’ve snared Le Bete Orange,
Slam the gavel, bring the charge,

And now they’re giddy…..

Giddy like the buzzards circling o’er their prey,
Giddy like the varmints, chewing on the hated target,
While the judges hold him still,
Giddy like the frantic hawks, flailing with their shrilly squawks,
The fear they just can’t kill,
Damn the coming storm,
Now they’ve booked Le Bete Orange,
Slam the gavel, bring the charge,
Hey, the law may be applied unequally,
But it’s the only way to save democracy.

I beg you Lovely Lady, turn your head away,
Away from the shame, away from the pain,
America, America, how did we let it get this far?
We are your sons, what have we done?
What have we done……….

Ah but giddy doesn’t last, when the vengeance & the wrath,
Shred the piers that bear the load,
No it won’t be so hysterical, when even Heaven’s miracle,
Can’t keep our father’s code, 

Oh but decision day is nigh, & the beast is still alive,
And far too many still believe…..

So arrest the Monster!...show it on TV,
Silence him & anyone who won’t concede,
There’s no time for constitutionality,
When the mission is to save democracy.

Giddy (now with lyrics)

Join a joyful celebration of human connection where greetings from around the world become a musical tapestry. Zoé Le Fleur's vocals weave through languages and cultures, from 'Hola' to 'Namaste', from 'Konnichiwa' to 'Sawubona', each hello adding its own color to this global harmony.

As hypnotic electronic beats emerge and ethereal synthesizer pads float through the composition, traditional didgeridoo drones ground the journey in ancient rhythms. Each verse builds bridges between cultures, while the chorus reminds us that we're all one global family sharing the same universal greeting.

Perfect for anyone who believes in the power of a simple 'hello' to connect hearts across continents. This track celebrates our beautiful diversity while reminding us of our shared humanity through the universal language of music.

Universal Hello

Hated that guy! Flashy car, looks, hair, clothes, girls, sex. 
Achieved nothing but pain.
Here is that song that tells of a period after whereby I wanted to be someone else to try and forget what was done to me 24 years ago. 

Soft rap, R&B, soft, emotional. Song by Djsas

Someone Else

Verse]
Most of my life, disguised in a mask
Chasing dreams, but the shadows they cast
Living a  flashy,life
future fakin' brash
Empty heart
cash couldn't mend my broken past

[Verse 2]
Lost in lust, hired love for the night
Darkened soul, searching for the light
Hotel rooms, never felt so tight
Smilin' wide, but the pain outta sight
Tried to be 
that someone , else

[Chorus]
Wanted to be more than just a show
Someone real, not a headline show
Life in the fast lane, but slow on growing
Walkin' away from the lies I used to know
Just wanted to ,be
that someone, someone else

[Bridge]
Fake thrills, empty bills, voids filled
Actin' like a king but always unfulfilled
Played the part, but the role almost 
killed me
Livin' a story so fake,
took fate ,to rebuild

[Verse 3]
Shiny car, but the engine was full of, bulletproof lies
Friends were frauds, prices that escalate high
Thought I had it all but felt cold inside
Hated that guy that envy can't disguise

[Verse 4]
Tossed the mask, threw the keys on the floor
Left the shadows, walked straight out the door
From the echo of a past I can't ignore
Finally found the self I've searched for.

any young man
listening to these
lyrics
don’t ever let
anyone else tell
you, that , 
you are not 
good enough 

Cause You Are

Someone_Else

The Sun Comes Shining Through

This song is about standing up against authoritarianism and the abuse of power, with a clear target in the figure of Donald Trump. The lyrics paint a picture of a person who's unafraid to challenge and resist the exploitation and manipulation of power, and who's determined to fight for what's right. The song's themes of defiance and resilience are woven throughout the verses and chorus, with a strong sense of conviction and determination.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
He sees
The power and he wants it for himself
And so he takes it

[Verse 2]
For free
From anyone who has a little more
He'll strip 'em naked

[Chorus]
And I am not afraid to speak
I am not afraid to fight
I'll take the sword and ride
And I'll stand for all my life

[Verse 3]
And he lies
He lies until they have to take the tape
To prove he's guilty

[Verse 5]
He denies
He points his finger and he screams and cries
I know it's coming

[Chorus]
And I am not afraid to speak
I am not afraid to fight
I'll take the sword and ride
And I'll stand for all my life

Stand Against Trump

Ok... Look likes I haven't offended the people that matter yet with this... The deep Reggae fans... Nice!

Just thought of something interesting I've never shared here. When doing my leaving cert/final high school year two months before the exam I said Hmmm... what about music... so I decided to add it as a subject. given I hadn't taken classes that made the theory quite challenging. I got close to full marks in the practical but the written test I had to answer in an unusual way. I didn't know the terms at the time so I just described it instead. It's interesting to think about it now the idea of imagining your own answer for something and then having that confirmed or denied. I would have still been marked down heavily for not knowing the terms but I arguably got it more then most. There's definitely something to be said for trying to teach yourself something first maybe and then merging your imagination with what's actually been discovered...

I'm wondering does it drill it in better that way having your own reference first and then the realm knowledge... Maybe we are more likely to find new ways that way too playing into the individuals imagination before they discover other ways it's understood up to that point.

Maybe that order of learning something plays into the fruits of association memory better and is maybe like how some mentalists and illusionists use it. I would imagine your imagined answer and the storing of the actual answer when you find that out are stored in different parts of the brain maybe giving better reference for the brain and improved neuroplasticity on the matter.

Check this list out .. For the practical test... I played these 6 songs on acoustic guitar. I had them well tight then

1) Stairway to Heaven - Led Zep
2) Radiohead - Street Spirit
3) Out on a Western Plain - Rory Gallagher
4) Stumbleen - Smashing Pumkins
5) Radiohead - High and Dry
6) Babe I'm gonna Leave you - Led Zep

Lyrics

Coming straight from Ireland man
Rasta power with some fuck them plan
For human art
For human made
Give me rasta power to mute the pro prompts paid
Ahhhhh
Straight from Ireland man
Rasta power with some fuck them plan
It's human art
It's human made
Feel it now and we'll reflect that great

Sounds vain,
Bigging up my own brain.
Blame the world,
This status quo
The fake and fucked up reality show
I can't watch artificial grow
Without musical smells to make it go
Life is art and art is life
Fake the steak for a weak minded right
Go live your FUD
Go live in pain
I'll sing real truth!
Soul gain!
From indie to metal to rock to rhythm and blues and reggae and jazz...
Human algorithm

Make a style
Be a new way
Create a world that says new day
Create a world that honours history
Where artists spirits expand our mystery
These spirits are sad with your fovia fake
Art 'aint random when a human make!
So regurgitate your souless take
It all sounds the same this AI bake
So grab an instrument and express real heart beat
(Guitars / Samplers / Keyboards / Saxophones... all music that is expressed whether that's banging rocks or playing a harp)

FUCK AI MUSIC
Ask your soul to prove it
Chuck the lazy loser... you!
You lost!
Now hear those waves where life is not a cost...

FUCK AI MUSIC
Ask your soul to prove it
Chuck the lazy loser... you!
You lost!
Now hear those waves where life is not a cost...


It's actual Intelligence
Not vomited irrelevance



Thanks Bob...🫡 My guess is some other SC'ers gonna help make this EPIC... and we will dedicate it to your amazing Soul Mr Marley. Thanks for your music man

Cousin Silas - The Green Man Jig

“In and Out” tells the story of love tested by uncertainty, when someone drifts into your world then disappears without reason, leaving only questions. The verses ache with longing and doubt, late nights spent waiting at the door, wondering if they belong or if they will walk away again. Every word carries the tension of inconsistency, showing how fragile a heart becomes when love feels like a swinging door. The chorus cuts through with power, repeating the demand for clarity: no more in and out, no more games, choose love or let go. Emotion builds verse by verse, from vulnerability to anger to determination, moving like a storm that finally clears the air. Between choruses, space and silence echo the hesitation, before the plea rises again with even greater urgency and force. By the third verse, resolve begins to replace doubt, the voice no longer begging but insisting it is time to stop playing. The last chorus hits harder than the rest, as the question becomes undeniable: either stay or go, no more half-measures in love. This is a song that many will recognize, because everyone has felt the sting of someone who cannot decide to be present. “In and Out” is not just a song—it is a declaration that love must be steady, true, and chosen without hesitation.

Lyrics
In and Out

You come into my life and make me feel
You stir me up and change my life
Then you disappear, leaving me in fear (why)
I stumble around, trying to work it out (lost in doubt)

Mmmmm mmmm

Now you are back as though nothing has happened
Sorry, can’t work this way, I am not a swinging door
Can’t just come and go, it blows my mind (puts me in turmoil)
This has to stop, no more come and go, we could fit (together)

So, either you are or either you ain’t
No more swinging doors, you gotta belong (you do)
You can’t blow in like the wind, and go out again (not happening)
So, either you are or either you ain’t (so which is it)
In or Out, In or Out

Mmmmm mmmmmm

Instrumental 10 sec

Got enough problems in my world, don’t need to add a Gypsy
This girl, is not that way, likes to stay in one place
You’re welcome to make this your place (yeah)
But, No more, In and Out, In and Out of this place (uhhh hah)

Mmmmm mmmmm

So, either you are or either you ain’t
No more swinging doors, you gotta belong (you do)
You can’t blow in like the wind, and go out again (not happening)
So, either you are or either you ain’t (so which is it)
In or Out, In or Out

Time has come, to grow up, either you do or you don’t
Not a kid no longer, no more playing the field
No more playing the field if you want me
It is time to be

Mmmmm mmmmmm

So, either you are or either you ain’t
No more swinging doors, no more swinging doors, you gotta know (you do)
You can’t blow in like the wind, and go out again
So, either you are or either you ain’t (so which is it)
In or Out, In or Out

mmmmmm mmmmmm yeah mmmmm

love tested by uncertainty, disappears without reason, longing and doubt, waiting at the door, tension of inconsistency, fragile a heart, swinging door, demand for clarity, choose love or let go, moving like a storm, space and silence echo, plea rises again, resolve begins to replace doubt, half-measures in love, declaration that love must be steady
