lyrics

help me understand the zeitgeist I want to know about your life
who do you want for president I want to hear your two cents
well I was in the army from 18 to 30 a prison guard from 31 to 49
and I believe in self-determination small government and fighting crime
and I hate the welfare state hence the trump pence sign on my fence
and here’s my two cents on my blue state cousin
she’s an activist socialist do nothin’
fair trade single origin queer living in Portland Oregon
she’s a sandinista barista I wish I could be bigger but she’s so fun to trigger
she’s all in for bernie what’s her two cents about me
well we go to a lake in the U.P. our whole damn family
and he loves his kid his kid rock his kid rock is pure schlock
he wears camo he brings ammo he packs heat he eats wheat
he’s judgy he’s pudgy he never shuts up
he gets fucked up and then he blows shit up
and I don’t get his politics he votes against his interests
I tried to change his mind I tried to change her mind
I hit a brick wall I hit a brick wall
And come this fall we’re both gonna vote
And come this fall only one of us is gonna get to gloat
Yeah come this fall we’re both gonna vote
And come this fall only one of us is gonna get to gloat

about

Derek Senn San Luis Obispo, California

I learned how to play guitar late in life. Then I decided to write songs and record them. For years I worked in the lo-fi tradition of home recording, which means I basically did everything myself & all songs were certified 100% free range, non-GMO, free trade, sustainably recorded organic. YUM! But now I record in proper studios and the music tastes even better! ... more
