Figure it out [DEMO]

Paving The Way Through The Darkness

Something about Hauntology
There's something about false memories 
there's something about the consumer in me
...and Marx gets fucked in the ass
I watch the Tube of You
...your play count just to click on thru
I'm sure Fisher, in death, sang the blues
...while Rand has a hard on of glass

Politically, can you tell where I'm at?
ooooh...
When I tell you the dead can come back?
ooooh....
aaaah....

Cancel your reality t.v.
There's something better as your kids can see
Tok Tik, the boy with sweet tits
Anime dances to your favorite playlist
Like, share and subscribe
Comment however you would like
Ad space will conquer and divide
as you use up, destroy and re-buy

Zombies

Listen to my political opinion....

Don't slide your ass to the right
Not unless you are the misogynist type
Don't slide your ass to the right
We will riot if you try
Don't slide your ass to the right
They're all racists who like to pick fights
Don't slide your ass to the right
We will riot if you try

Now let's all bow down to our God

Don't shake your ass to the left
Not unless you like government checks
Don't shake your ass to the left
We will shoot you in the head
Don't shake your ass to the left
They kill babies and worship Baphomet
Don't shake your ass to the left
We will shoot you in the head

Now let's all bow down to our God

Money.......

People, people....
listen to me
they are your enemy
they need to be destroyed
they cannot be reasoned with
if you attempt to speak with them
then you're fraternizing with the enemy
do you hear me?
listen to me people
the time for peace is over
and every single fucking last one of them
needs to have their skulls kicked in 
and their livelihood burned to the ground
tear the whole goddamn thing down
and salt the barren ground
and when you're good and satisfied
don't forget to visit the gift shop on your way out

Now that the dust has settled
and my favorite team has won,
my ceremonial robes
and insignia I don
Cuz' there's something terrible
the payment has come due
You see they came for my soul
Now they're coming for you.....

The Shake And Slide Political Fight

I taught myself guitar with the Beatles and Elvis music books when I was 16 but when it came to the piano many years later, after learning the basic major/minor chord shapes, I just began trying to busk/write songs to practice (I haven't improved much btw!!!!) and this song stemmed from that time trying to join chords together. The idea about "closing the door and never coming home" reminded me of the Beatles 'She's Leaving Home' and I just went with it: Imagining contrasts of George Michael or Morrissey singing the 'big' chorus I could hear in my head in their own unique ways. It's another story song and is about no one in particular. I don't expect this song to be an 'in-context' hit on Soundcloud but it is a personal favourite of mine.

Charles Hardin

Nobody Else

A song for my daughter and my son

Remixed June 23

SINK OR SWIM

take all the time
you need
to get by

you know that sometimes
just breathe
it’s alright…

take all those books
and throw them away
you know every rule
was meant to be overruled someday….

till you see that way you won’t feel that way
till you feel that way you won’t be that way

you know there are some fools
stealing cues
what to do, what to choose

when it comes down to you
make your to do
got nothing to lose...

take all all those lists
and hurl them away
crossing some lines
was meant to be overlooked someday…
until you see that way you won’t feel that way
until you feel that way you won’t be that way…  
until you jump right in
you won’t sink or swim

oh yeah…
til you jump right in
oh yeah…
gotta jump right in…

take all those charts
and chuck them away…
cos being the odd one out
was always gonna pay some day…

until you see that way you won’t feel that way
until you feel that way you won’t be that way…  
until you jump right in
you won’t sink or swim

take all the space 
that you need
to fly….

don’t worry about me
I’ll be here
watching the sky…

take all those books
and hurl them away
you know every rule
was meant to be overturned someday….

until you see that way you won’t feel that way
until you feel that way you won’t be that way…  

until you jump right in
you won’t sink or swim
