NOTE: THIS TRACK HASN'T BEEN MASTERED YET AND SO YOU'LL NEED TO TURN YOUR SPEAKERS UP A BIT.

I just wrote this one in Feb. of 2025 as the US dashes madly into chaos and dictatorship while the Red Hat yahoos cheer for their own demise....But hey, we can still dance, right? ;-)

Strongman Party (c. 2025 Walter Ehresman)

We get so giddy.....watching all your deepest fears;

It's just so damn exciting.....we've been planning this for years!

So many million babies.....jangle keys above the crib;

The back room's really hoppin'.....and our excuses all are glib.

It's a strongman party--everybody better get down on the floor;

If you wonder what we're takin'--you better know it's only more;

Stick your finger in the socket while we lie and pick your pocket and we joke about the things you let us do;

The joke's on you!

The theme for this party is the oldest story in the world;

The oligarchs are dancin' on the futures of you boys and you girls.

You know you're all invited.....and we require you to go;

We know that all you Red Hats.....thought you would never have to show;

The action so exclusive.....the velvet rope is all you'll see;

There's no use to aspire.....you'll never be a VIP.

Walter Ehresman--vocals; electric guitar; 5-string electric bass; keyboards & key percussion; key drum loop triggering; car keys.
