The music of Lee Shapiro, which consists of a variety of styles and genres. I would appreciate if you "liked" or commented on any of the songs you enjoy.
My favorite kinds of music is the kind that surprises you. While I enjoy conventional type songs (verse, chorus, verse chorus, bridge, chorus), I prefer songs that take you on an adventure. This includes jam songs (Grateful Dead), and songs with many detours and lots of dynamics (Rickie Lee Jones, Dave Matthews). Although most of my songs tend to fall into some kind of normal verse/chorus formula, I do tend to try and mix things up a bit. Which is why most of my songs last longer than 4 or 5 minutes.

Story behind the song
It's my belief that all politicians, whether democrats or republicans, are all corrupt, greedy, self-serving bastards, who all have basically the same agenda. And the aisle in The House or Senate that supposedly separates the two major parties is just for show, and doesn't really exist in the real world of politics.... There is no aisle.
Lyrics
Brave words echo through the empty halls Taking us where we’ve not been before Some choose red, while others blue If you think that matters I got news for you Secret deals made by men Whose only interests are dollars and yens The keep finding ways to get in our heads We keep voting for them again and again Politicians say the right words To separate and dived the herds Our side wants what is best for the world Where the other finds ways to hurt us all Secret deals made by men Whose only interests are dollars and yens The keep finding ways to get in our heads We keep voting for them again and again Lesser of two evils, that’s what we’re told How much more before it gets real old I’m telling you there’s a better way We got to find a way to have our say There’s a fine line between paranoid And what’s happening behind closed doors It’s up to us to find the truth But first we got to call a truce Money and power is all they crave They don’t think twice about the mess they made Billions spent on oil and war Don’t tell me but I think I’ve seen this before You can keep your guns and keep your speech By now what matters is out of our reach Brainwashed sheep created from both sides The secret is there is no aisle! Politicians from the left and right None of them to be put on trial The only secret to keep in your mind The only secret is there is no aisle
