There's No Good Guys
Initially inspired by a newsletter I regularly receive in my email regarding the war on healthcare here in the USA. There was a reference to certain men dining with certain men of which is highly hypocritical to the cause.
As always, any feedback is appreciated. Truly helps!
THERE’S NO GOOD GUYS
[Verse 1]
Think you know who rules the world
But how can we know for certain?
Big Brother is but a front
Look closer behind the curtain
[Chorus]
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys behind the curtain
[Verse 2]
Think you know who the Devil is
You learned it in Sunday school
Most preachers are but a front
Of Big Brother but a tool
[Chorus]
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys behind the curtain
Oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh
[Verse 3]
Think you know your history
You learned it in history class
Memorized the dates and places
But it takes a magnifying glass
[Chorus]
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys behind the curtain
Oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh, Oooh-oooh
[Chorus/Tag]
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys
There’s no good guys
Just all bad guys behind the curtain
Behind the curtain
“Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!”
And that’s all one really needs to know.

Great lyrics, renee, but do we really want to look behind the curtain? :)

@bhengen if we don't look behind the curtain like Dorothy, Toto and her gang did, we may be forever lost. And now, you got me wondering if the Tag should be extended, "And that's all we really need to know...to find our way home." Could be a clearer picture.
Thanks for your input, Bill,
Renee

@bhengen now, I know that's not true as seen in your highly intelligent and drenched in wisdom songs. 😍 and I might add, very dark music as reality can be. Speaking of dark, got me a good one goin' wishing I knew how to play goth chords. Title is PROBLEM CHILD. Can hear your screaming lady vocalist and eerie chords.

goth chords are in the minor key using the i-vi -iii vii chord progressions. played slowly, around 80 bpms, unless it's metal, then it's played fast. thanks for the compliment.

@bhengen you're welcome and thank YOU! As you can tell, I'm a bit lost musically beyond the bare basics, but I'm twying! 😊

It does feel like this at times. Lot of people drawn to power for the wrong reasons.
I think you're message is coming across loud and clear here!

This reminded me that history is written by the victors, and we all need to question everything we are told. You're on to something here, we all need to open our eyes to others motivation.1

@Barry precisely, correct. Thanks for the compliment. Poetic License is almost all we have left in the way of free speech and I'm gonna use it! And if it's ever gone, I'm gonna use it, still! 😉
