A song about how an idea for a song in my head often starts off in one direction and ends up where I don't want it going.
punk political social roc
A solo punk band with songs ranging from politics to social issues to evolutionary biology.
Lacking any real musical talent, I decided to use Punk-o-Matic to create some generic punk backgrounds to the various songs I had written. Recorded at low quality through a computer microphone, the songs are not musical masterpieces but the lyrics are still strong. Give it a listen, you might enjoy it.

Lyrics
This is your captain speaking, and I’m bearing bad news This song has been taken over, so now prepare to lose The original course has been perverted by means Foreign to the creative intention in my genes And now at gunpoint we boost the throttle Try to make it out through the neck of the bottle But the miniature ship contained in the glass Stands like a gatekeeper letting not one ship pass We’ve been hijacked Steered off course Internal attack Swayed by force We can’t get back To before So just sit back Fear the worst This is a stalwart holdout locked in the restroom Live from a cell phone nigh the hour of my doom Just an innocent bystander caught in between The diametrically opposed ideological machine I can’t withstand this loss of control I kick open the door, I kick open the world Meet my oppressors with a fire in my eyes Seen only in characters bound to die We’ve been hijacked Steered off course Internal attack Swayed by force We can’t get back To before So just sit back Fear the worst This is the field reporter live at the scene Of the wreckage of where a plane once careened Shot out of the sky in order to protect the whole From the payload of the fossil fuel An incendiary force like a time bomb in the fuselage Coming as fast as a sputtering machine gun barrage In the ruins burning behind my back Are the dreams deferred of a song hijacked We’ve been hijacked Steered off course Internal attack Swayed by force We can’t get back To before So just sit back Fear the worst We’ve been hijacked Steered off course Internal attack Swayed by force We can’t get back To before So just sit back Fear the worst We’ve been hijacked Steered off course Internal attack Swayed by force We can’t get back To before So just sit back Fear the worst
