Keep Saying

Liner Notes

This turned out a bit longer than I anticipated - in the final version it may end up a bit shorter... just saying.

Lyrics

Hey! Holy Cow!
What's wrong with me now?
Sure they're tellin' me how.

Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.
Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork

You're a money lovin' junky
Looking for a flunky,
Keep me on a lead like your crippled little monkey.

Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.
Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.

Power mad dysplastic
Make wars of onomastics,
Stirring the detritus, just to prove that they're fantastic.

Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork
Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork

You keep saying I'm wrong,
I thought I'm doing just fine?
You keep saying to me this is the end of the line...

Narcistic little flanker,
Spreading like a canker,
Avoiding all the facts, what a typical scrimshanker.

Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork

Wannabe dictator
Peddling their hate yeah'
Throwing mud at reason, tactical click-baiter

Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.
Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.

Self indulgent brother,
You know they'd sell their mother,
Breeding fear and anger is just their bread and butter

Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.
Hey hey hey, they're hiding in the bushes,
They're creeping out the woodwork.

You keep saying I'm wrong,
I thought I'm doing just fine?
You keep saying to me this is the end of the line...
You keep saying I'm wrong,
I thought I'm doing just fine?
You keep saying to me this is the end of the line...
For your kind!

Neat crunch on the chords; I'm not sure it is too long... once you're in the groove, you get carried along with the jaunty hi-hats etc. quite easily.

I write my lyrics and then determine my "beats per minute" and try REALLY HARD to keep it at or under 3 minutes. That said, this is "just the right length"--because it's got a nice infectious beat that's fun to listen to for more than 3 minutes. Great job! ❤️

This is one infectious groove! Love the hey-hey-hey's.... And genius with flanker/canker/scrimshanker 😄

Fun lyrics. Impossible to resist joining in on those "Hey hey hey"s.
This doesn't just groove, it *bounces*.

Love the guitar parts and sounds in here. Very relatable paranoia in the lyrics, for sure, and a lot of cool lines. (Did I have to look up 'onomastic'? Yes, I did, and I'm glad). I guess five minutes is a lot, but didn't feel too long listening to it.
