Stop Selling Us Out

The lyrics were off the top of my head so if you’re wondering how I really feel, or what I’m talking about… let’s just say there’s a lot of stupid out there right now and a lot of it has important jobs. Dig?

Kinda funky. Not bad. Maybe should have taken the sauce off of the rhythm guitar, but it’s not too annoying. I liked the outro where the bass hits the down beat alone and then the guitar hits the second beat alone. I thought it was groovy. Then I went and put a solo over it and ruined the effect. The solo has wah wah though so it all events out in the end.

All of the guitars are a Gibson ES-335 Pro through both a Fender Bassbreaker 15 and a Vox AC15. All parts used a Klon KTR. The rhythm has an MXR Phase 90, and the leads used a Malaise Forever Black Lives Matter and a Dunlop Cry Baby wah as well.

Chorus
stop with the lying
stop with the cheating
stop with the selling us out
stop with the faking
stop with the taking
stop with the breaking us down

Verse 1
what you’re selling
we’re not buying
we’re no suckers
what you’re saying
we’re not hearing
quit the lying

Verse 2 & 3
you’re a loser
you are useless
lame pretender
plastic painted
ever hated
just surrender
