Tell it Paul. I feel it, too. A lament put just right in word and sound. Production, arrangement, vocal performance and accomanying image all crying together. And seething.

So good to hear songs with meaning, bravo!

A song written from our future. Love the dark mood and truthful lyrics. Nice work!

You hit the nail on the head. Everything fits together, passionate singing and fine chords.

Your lyric writing is rich it has the essence of a whole man.

Those little guitar fills are lovely and against the angsty vocals creating a contrast.

Wake up in the morning
With the dawn not far behind
Air raid sirens blaring most all of the time
Monkey in the tree swinging vine to vine
Got more money in my pocket
Everything is fine

Life is pretty great
Got nothing to lament
Brown people lined up 'neath the exit sign
Got more money in my pocket
Everything is fine

Brilliant sun in a brilliant sky
If the gun fire stops
I might go outside

Come on over and meet my girl
But keep your voice low
She still startles pretty easy
Why, I don't know
Got a bunch of little babies
Happy all the time
Got more money in my pocket
Everything is fine

This was the land of the free
The home of the brave
Gave it all up for a lower price on eggs
Sometimes I miss voting
But I don't really mind
Got more money in my pocket 
Everything is fine

Brilliant sun in a brilliant sky
If the tide ever goes out
I might go outside

Wake up in the morning
Air raid sirens blaring most all the time
Monkey in the tree swinging vine to vine
Got more money in my pocket
Everything is fine
