Lyrics for Activists. Got music? (copyright free, preferably) [View all]

Not your 60's Civil Rights music, but what the heck.
Creative Commons License
Use as you choose, modify.
It's a late night inspiration. -- rough edges?

Every day sees higher prices
Every day another crisis
Unhinged episodes combine (2)
Each more violent and obscene
To take the spotlight
— off Epstein

Everything that he accuses
is a thing that he abuses
It’s a place where he has gone
Like a shabby Mafia Don

Any One his outrage sways
Is a person he betrays
Words are just synthetic(1) honey, to
Drain your honor and your money

He claims he’s for America First
That’s a lie that’s just the worst
Billions for his foreign debt
We get zilch
— He gets a jet

Epstein, Epstein, king of blackmail
Conveniently, he died in jail
Victims aren’t free, (or) they’d he saying
The name of him that
— they’re still paying

Desperate to protect himself
He wants those files upon a shelf
Never ever to be seen
To protect the King and Queen


(1) or Grok-made, or duck-speak
(2) So Epstein is pronounced eps-teen?. I never knew him.
I was thinking of the main theme of Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony. YMMV, definitely!
