Dedicated to all the anti-vaxxer / anti-maskers who keep on fighting the good fight: Free-DUMB against government overreach. Thanks for doing your part to make sure that COVID-19 kills as many people as possible.

#COVIDIOCY

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(It's gonna get you...)

COVID doesn't care about your Free-DUMB
COVID only cares about your pink lungs
COVID won't leave
Until you can't breathe
And then it's on the lookout for another one.

Rich and poor, young and old, gay and straight
COVID loves us all it won't discriminate
It keeps on making friends
With Homo sapiens
The party's getting started time to
Celebrate!

First it slips in like a thief in the night
With the soft caress of something new
Then it gets stronger and not much longer
'Til it squeezes the life right out of you...

COVID finds you in the city and the sticks
COVID doesn't care about your politics
Don't bother with the mask
It's oh-so-much to ask
Of Anti-Science Free-DUMB lovin' lunatics

Nature's got a special gift for everyone
Little bugger's got the humans on the run
A message for the folks
Who still think it's a hoax:
"You'll get what's coming to you with 
THE NEXT ONE"

(solo)

COVID doesn't care about your free-DUMB
COVID doesn't care about your income
COVID doesn't care about where you came from
COVID only cares about your pink lungs...

(It's gonna get you...)

COVID

A musical tribute to Greta Thunberg, the Swedish teenager who has taken on the battle against climate change. Go Greta Go!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Swedish teenage warrior 
Just doing what must be done 
Saw the planet suffering 
Spread the word to everyone
Shared the gift of sanity 
With a world that's gone insane 
Sat outside the Parliament 
Told the truth about climage change

Soon the students all joined in 
Let the climate strikes begin 
Fridays for the Future come what might

This is the good fight
She is the Earth's voice 
Greta is the sunlight!

Rode the train to Germany 
Told the leaders "don't celebrate" 
For their little baby steps 
Coming thirty years too late

Sailed off to America 
With a shot across the bow 
"Take the science seriously... 
No more waiting, let's do it now!"

Some were scared and called her names 
But she stayed out of their silly games 
Knowing she was doing what was right

This is the good fight 
She is the Earth's voice 
Greta is the sunlight!

Greta

In the #MeToo age, how can a Neanderthal like Brett Cavanaugh make it onto the Supreme Court? This song 'honors' his achievements both past and present.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O LOTHARIO

Here’s what he’s gonna do
He’ll overpower you
And then he’ll say that you’re the
Best he’s ever had

No sense in acting tough
He’ll think you like it rough
He’s happy now and you don’t want to see him mad

But oh Lothario
Why can’t they just let it go?
That was many years ago
Now watch the tears and bullshit flow

O Lothario
Grabs the girls and won’t let go
Hasn’t learned that NO means NO
O Lothario

O Lothario
Prep boy putting on a show
Won’t confess to what we know

Don’t try to get away
It’s gonna be OK
That’s what they always say when
Boys are being boys

Here’s what the judge will say:
“You shouldn’t dress that way
He thinks you came to play
Consensual by choice”

And oh Lothario
Tells the world “I told you so”
Putting on a pious show
Gonna strike down Wade v Roe

Oh Lothario
Grabs the girls and won’t let go
Hasn’t learned that NO means NO
Oh Lothario

Oh Lothario
See the list of victims grow
Prep boy crying no no no

O Lothario

"Rats will eat anything, even their rat king."

-------------------------------------------------

Once there was a selfish boy
Fame and fortune brought no joy
Wanted to become the king 
Of everyone and everything...

Foreign policy he does so well
Distant lands need Trump Hotels
Won't admit to doing wrong
Although the evidence is strong
Loves the bad boy reputation
Doubles down in desperation
Always lets resentments linger
Gives the world his middle finger

Used to getting things his way 
Cracking more and more each day
Orange artist of the deal
Gonna kill the rat who squealed

Rivals are his enemies
Started digging overseas
Made some calls and said "hello"
Offered up some Quid Pro Quo
Rudy says "it ain't no crime,
The mafia does this all the time"
Paranoid in Crazy Town 
Tweeting as he hunkers down

Spinning madly every day 
Still the truth won't go away
Spitting on the rule of law
Ready for the last hurrah 

What about those tax returns?
Nasty secrets we should learn
Strap him to a lie detector
Dump him in the private sector
Make a deal he can't refuse
Dress him up in prison blues
Greatest man to walk the Earth
Ship him off to Leavenworth
Now he gets to make new friends
Lompoc needs a few good men

(you sure act guilty for an) Innocent Man

(Dedicated to the GOP Senators who worship their corrupt king instead of doing their duty to serve America...)

They know he did it but they turn a blind eye
They’re getting everything they want from their guy
No need for witnesses or treasonous talk
They know he’s guilty but they’re letting him walk 
They’re circling the wagons and holding down the fort 
The ass-kissing lackeys on the Kangaroo Court

They say the Democrats are making it up
They pledge allegiance but they know he's corrupt
He’s always been a hoodlum but they really don’t care
The party’s on a mission and he’s taking them there
The hearing’s disappearing ‘cause they’re cutting it short
Complicit and dismiss it, they’re the Kangaroo Court

Party over country 
With conscience shoved aside
It’s Mourning in America 
The day democracy died

They know the emperor is wearing no clothes
They stay submissive while they're holding their nose
They preach of family values with a little caveat
The battle cry is “cheat and lie until you get caught”
And even though the emperor was trying to extort,
He got exonerated by the Kangaroo Court

The Democrats tried but their efforts fell short
The emperor is laughing at the Kangaroo Court
Election is the touchdown, money's the sport
The fix is always in at the Kangaroo Court

Kangaroo Court

On April 17, 2020, Donald J. Trump called for citizens to "liberate" their states from the tyranny of COVID-19 safety measures. Over the next several days, citizens across the country heeded Trump's call to action. This song commemorates their heroic efforts.

------------------------------------------------------------------

There's a rumor goin’ on right here
Coronavirus to play upon your fears
So bring your shotguns and your pickup truck
We gonna liberate ‘cause we don’t give a fuck

Come on now, liberation 
Let's all liberate start spreading those germs
Liberation
Let’s liberate so we can die on our terms

It's time to fight together
It's up to us, now or never
All you Red Caps ‘round the state come on!

YAHOO
It’s a liberation
YAHOO

Liberation time come on!

There's a panic goin’ on right here
Coronavirus to play upon your fears
So bring your handguns and your rifles too
We gonna liberate and screw that fake news

Come on now, liberation 
Let's all liberate start climbing aboard
Liberation
We gonna get ourselves some Darwin Awards

It's time to fight together
It's up to us, now or never
All you Red Caps ‘round the state come on!

YAHOO
It’s a liberation
YAHOO

Liberation time come on!

We don’t need no reason to fight
Let’s liberate… we’re all white

MAGA

Donald Trump, the original "Birther", has a simple motto... 

"When in doubt, blame Barack Obama". 

Playing golf, wiretapping (debunked), COVID-19, George Floyd protests, indigestion... the list is endless.  Some people still believe this drivel, but anyone with a brain isn't falling for it. 

===========================================

It was the best of times
Everything was going fine
Now it's the worst of times
I spread the blame 'cause it isn't mine

I'm blaming it all on Obamagate
'cause he's the one that all my people love to hate
I'm blaming everything on Obamagate
Like I always do

Media conspiracy
Trying to get the best of me
So I use the same lie...
I blame it on the black guy

I'm blaming it all on Obamagate
'cause he's the guy that all my people love to hate
I'm blaming everything on Obamagate
Like I always do

The white folk cut me a lot of slack
'Cause I'm the one that's gonna take their country back
I say anything, they still believe
And I got a Trump card hidden up my sleeve

Obamagate

(From the new album "America Can't Breathe -- https://bit.ly/AFACB)
 
(Video available @ https://bit.ly/AFJESUS)

Trump directs his pal Bill Barr to tear gas peaceful protesters in Lafayette Square so that he can march outside and put his hand on a bible for a ridiculous photo op. So pious is he...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jesus is embarrassed by your Photo Op
Gassing peaceful protesters until they drop
He said to love your fellow man
Instead you walk right over them

 Jesus is embarrassed by your Photo Op
Gassing peaceful protesters to make them stop
And if you feel a hint of shame,
Just say you did it in His name.

LYRICS

Naked Athena
you should’a seen her
With her face mask and stocking cap
She’s not taking any crap

The Trump experiment to stamp out all dissent
Send the thugs to PDX
Let them do what they do best
Rubber bullets, pepper spray
Tear gas if they run away
Nab a few and cuff their hands
Throw them into unmarked vans
Protestors on the run
Thugs thought their work was done
She entered undetected
The girl they least expected

Naked Athena
you should’a seen her
With her face mask and stocking cap
She’s not taking any crap

No weapons, no clothes…
The Federales froze
No reason to shoot a girl in her birthday suit
Kapitan said “Fire Away!”
So they shot the pepper spray
Through the smoke they heard her say
“Peace and Love are here to stay”

 Athena wants to see
A world where all are free
To be what they believe
To live and love and breathe…
