about
A little somethin' somethin' to end this crazy year.
In anticipation of my March house concert tour and a new album in 2022, here's a single (which will not be on that album) that may remind you of someone you know, or if you're less fortunate, possibly your representative in congress...
lyrics
CANCELLED
He got/cancelled in a big way
Caught saying something/he shouldn’t say
With the microphone recording
Too loud in the crowd to be ignoring
He got/taken to task
For asking something/he shouldn’t ask
He ain’t got a lick of sense
When it comes to talking over the fence
And that is where you’re bound to find him
He got/censored by the media
They took down his page on Wikipedia
Replaced it with a press release
And a cash reserve for palms to grease
He sent/thirty-five apology notes
Franked the corners and that’s all he wrote
And an e-blast out over Instagram
A virtual wham bam thank you ma’am
And he wants a hill to die on
He wants a source to rely on
Exclusively
Eventually
He’s bound to be cancelled in a big way
Set up/automatic payment plan
So he can help fight the Taliban
From atop his Carolina treestand
So he feels a little less remote, he says
”No one’s gonna own me
No one’s gonna touch me
Coming back is making a comeback
You just sit back and watch me go.”
And he wants windmills to tilt at
He wants someone to instill that
Blind loyalty
Can’t he see
It’s plain to me
He’s cancelled in a big way
He keeps on/talking ‘bout the government
I don’t wanna/talk about the government
He’s bound, stuck by his guns
A2 rights and a big dose of skepticism
No walking back, he’s a part of the pack
And he can’t see how much I miss him
We used/to talk and fish
But those days are long in the past
For him my fondest wish would be that
The guy I knew return at last
But he wants a hill to die on
His own little personal zion
Celebrate his guts and glory
The hero of his own story
Until he dies, oh my,
Then won’t he be
Undeniably
And reliably
Cancelled in a big way
Cancelled in a big way
He keeps on/talking ‘bout the government
I don’t wanna/talk about the government
