about

Notes: thinking about the righteousness of all media. The provincial attitude of our culture's image-and-noise makers .. their scams .. trojan horses ... About getting taken.

found a 'voices' pack for the usb keyboard, and the song stemmed from a session playing with a new toy, and a familiar blend. now, simpleton's beats start to change.

lyrics

With the pinstripe suit
and the turned up nose
Telling me something
I don't know

with their lip service stew
everything but true
do what you can
to pull yourself through

She hit you with
the funk-master
flow-faster, arts-and-crafter
Master Blaster

A former board-waxer
you tax bastard
with the fees and the levees
like the team's lead tackler

H&R Block
can suck my @#$%
and when it comes to rock,
you know I just don't stop

On the walls and streets
from everywhere comes beats
parking lots, reservoirs
corners where we meet
