So I turns on my teevee to gets me informed
With the latest in disingenuous doublespeak
Designed to distract the dumb and disinterested
And I hears about how unionization causes illegal emigration
And how ACORN is the enemy of election integrity
And how reducing pollution means destroying our jobs
And how greed is good and compassion is weak
And what’s good for the company is good for you
And God says so too
And I sees through the spin, I know what they do
Though nobody seems they even have a clue
The brilliant and evil have all their sheep snowed
They swallow their lies by the load after pantload
It’s a burden for us, those who can see
How what America is differs from how it should be
Beset on all sides by the ignorant mass
Outnumbered, outgunned, though never outclassed
Sure to be hunted down, interned and then gassed
It’s no wonder most who see it just pass
Put their head in the sand or right up their ass
Cuz it’s easy to hide but it’s scary to fight
So I turns off my teevee, and steps into the light
Cuz one thing’s for certain, this truth will not bend
I did not descend from cowardly men.

But as for a youtube video, I do have something in mind.

Would I be doing this?
Have you ever been threatened while staring down the barrel of a gun?
I can tell you that in my case, it took some time to get over it.
Thanks for your concern.

I don't remotely believe your story. Your "book" poses no danger to anyone.

I've got 16 different songs currently posted. And why only 16? Because I just got a video camera very recently and I don't have a lot of spare time to mess with it. I've got a bunch more songs though, which I'll be posting in the coming days and weeks.
I am a good writer, and I do believe I've written some good songs, even if it is apparent in my delivery that I don't have a lot of time to devote to practice, nor talent for singing. For me it isn't about perfection, its about the creative process. It's about writing songs that SAY SOMETHING, not just the blather and nonsense and autotune so prevalent today.
So I'm going to continue doing what I do regardless of the haters.
