lyrics

Don’t give your soul to the dogs
The pig will trample your pearls
Under its hoof
What’s a pig gonna do with pearls, anyway?

Remember… they made you wear a muzzle?
To walk ten steps to take a seat at the table
Once they set you down, you could take it off
Ten steps to the bathroom, put it back!

In a not–so-distant future – get ready!
There will be a new invisible enemy
That will require you to give up your rights,
Your potential, your common sense, your self-respect
In the name of the State, in the name of "The Greater Good"

Grown men taking orders
From 16-year-old kids
An entire generation
Brain washed into obedience
It was a test
To see if they were in control
Through their lying, slowly dying, propaganda machine

Remember… they made you wear a muzzle?
To walk ten steps to take a seat at the table
Once they set down you could take off
Ten steps to the bathroom, put it back!
Do you think they got their answer
When they saw everybody comply?

Well, let me tell you something. What?
It’s all upside down and never what it seems
Let me ask you a question. What?
What happens next time if you don’t obey?

Remember… they made you wear a muzzle?
To walk ten steps to take a seat at the table
Once they set down you could take it off
Ten steps to the bathroom, put it back!
Do you think they got their answer
When they saw everybody comply?

In a not–so-distant future – get ready!
There will be a new invisible enemy
That will require you to give up your rights,
Your potential, your common sense, your self-respect
In the name of the State, in the name of "The Greater Good"

You can call it “climate change”
You can call it “a new variant or virus”
You can call it “a brand new gender”
Call it whatever you want!
But remember this... It's never for the Greater Good.
It's never for the Greater Good.

Don’t give your soul to the dogs
The pig will trample your pearls
Under its hoof
What’s a pig gonna do with pearls, anyway?

Remember… they made you wear a muzzle?
To walk ten steps to take a seat at the table
Once they set you down, you could take it off
Ten steps to the bathroom, put it back!

Let me ask you a question. What?
What happens next time if you don’t obey?

SUIT Santa Cruz, California

SUIT is my soundtrack - an Americana -mashup dedicated to freedom.

SUIT will explore whatever SUIT wants to explore.

The mission is to create 10 volumes that will strive to capture what I describe as “The Raging 20’s”.

4 in the pocket with the release of ’Power’ - 2023 with ‘Leisure, Wet and Birthday’ in the rear view mirror.

The goal: release one volume per year - 2020 to 2030
