Story behind the song
dont need to look too deep too see theres something wrong at the White house
Lyrics
IN the song some of he lyrics arent sung 2 men are talking sharing stories about the war One man is happy the other is downright sore you know i would have died for this one time but broother i aint dying anymore too much confusion the airwaves are filled with hate Yeah theres too much confusion the tyrants hold the gate Teens on facebook charmed you then left you to your fate. The fires they are burning the country is coming down The fires they are burning the country is coming down The people all went crazy and fell for orange pumkin clown The chains they are binding now growing on the vine The chains they are binding now growing on the vine you sold your self out to an image made on tv network time A strong man they say can put you right under his command A strong man they say can put you right under his command Now you have to take the oath with that small creepy pussy grabbing hand. Everybody been talking like words dont matter anymore Everybody been talking like words dont matter anymore JUst be real nasty and check all the mChristian values at the door So much oppresion coming like a train on down the track yes so much oppression coming like a train on down the track you got reborn years ago now you might never be coming back. Ill tell you something mister all those things you had youll surely miss Yes ill tell you something mister all thise things you had youll surely miss He put a scarlet letter on a good woman and now you got an old man with a cheating business sense. He said he d go big league drainn the swamp make American great again(2x) He said he d go big league drainn the swamp make American great again(2x) If you jsut ignore the swastikas and crosses and get your marching orders from the kremlin The wall its a coming but you know that wall is going to fall The wall its a coming but you know that wall is going to fall When you build your house on shaky ground you got nothhin you got nothing nothing at all

Usually I don`t listen to that kind of music, Roger, but I have to say that you have your own unique style. Your vocals tell me that you know what is experience, life and talent. Best regards, Adam

Go Rodger! Our resident poet activist strikes again...and hits the nail on it's ugly head. The rumble of the shaky ground is getting ever louder....Trouble with a capital T...
