Somewhat 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.

Hey, what can I say? Sometimes it gets rough. But it's still good.

on a summer blanket
in the moonlight
with the beach stones stirring
after midnight

i am ready
and i dare

god you know you’re tired
may you rest now
many ways to try it
lay the load down

i am ready (good to go)
i am there (going)

hey hey hey who
checkout avenue

on tomorrow’s bastion
once immortal
now you sense the ending
as a portal

i am ready
honeybear
i’m not waiting 
i am there

i am ready (here’s my ride)
and i dare (good night)
we’re not waiting (good to go)
we are there

Cast of Characters:
~Mark F-- @mark_fosella -- bass guitar, composition
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – first screaming electric guitar
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– second psychedelic electric guitar, production, and mix

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-organ

This song is the first The Eclectic Collective has done with Mark, and we all had a great time making it with him. This song started with Mark, who is a bass player's bass player, giving his raw bass track to Ken, who brought it to the group. Ken laid down his exciting drums to match Mark's bass line before anything else happened, though. Once we had a rhythm section, JJ laid down his dancing electric piano. Once that was in place, Josh laid down the organ. Then it was time for the guitars, played electrifyingly by both Tez and Stephen. Tez plays throughout most of the song, and Stephen added his part towards the end. Stephen also mixed this for us expertly, as always. If you have a beverage in your hands, you might want to set it down. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

I love this song and truly hope you do to. please comment, and tell me how youre doin it. i could use some ideas :-/

peace and love

A song written during an 11 week furlough in 2020… was a way to describe what was upon us all. I had a hunch.. but nobody knew what was really happening .

My singing has been invariably described as, “ painful to listen to”, … “For a singer, he’s a pretty good drummer “, … “ He sings about as good as a fish rides a bicycle”,…” you’re not doing yourself any favors by trying to sing”,…it’s okay, it’s just punk rock.. if you agree, I surely don’t mind! I just like stringing sounds together, for a fun hobby. I play and sing all the parts on my own tunes, for better or worse!… if I can inspire anyone, I’m happy, otherwise, carry on through your sunshining day !🤩

Lyrics:
Stuck in the day of The Deceiver 
What did you receive? What have we gained?
Following The Way, a true believer 
hoping that the Light will have its’say ￼￼

I warned you out loud,now we got all of this
I warned you out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned it out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned it out loud,now we got such a mess ￼￼

Put in your place,a tale(tail) between us
what have we gained? What have we done? 
Running in place, a road to nowhere 
Hoping that the day will come again 

I warned it out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned you out loud, now we got such a mess 
I warned you out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned it outloud, time to get out of this ￼￼￼

I warned it out loud, how we got all of this 
I warned it out loud now we got all of this 
I warn you all now, gonna get out of this ￼￼
I warn you all now, got to get out of this

Get Out of This One…
