This song is on the “that guy” album. Must be because I can’t find here in this gun barrel.

If the Bad Guys Win

We like to believe that humanity has ‘grown’ (improved the lot of most of its people) over that last 5-10 centuries. But, ten we watch some leaders around the World and we are convinced that there are puppeteers behind the curtain who through with stupidity of greed seem to turning us all back to the deplorable condition of ‘back then.’

What a shame and what an indictment of humanity if they succeed.

3 instrumental verses …Em7, E, Em7

They talk of freedom. That sounds good to you
No restraints on themselves. Just on you.
You’re invited to be selfish, do what you desire
Be in charge of everything except whom they hire …Em7

Design your own pension, decide what you get paid
Dream of better days ahead. Boy, you’re being played.
You can see the whole World if you pay the price
To ride the airlines’ cattle cars. Join the herd in Venice. How nice! …E

Instrumental verse …Em7

Bodacious online babes. They’re not even real
Inviting you to dream of them and drool while they steal
There’s no truth anywhere and no such thing as lying
Information overload. You’re a loser if you’re crying  …Em7

Poison wrapped in sugar. All your rights are fiction.
Hate trumps compassion. Endless contradiction.
Monarchs and peasants. Aw, here we go again
This is what we get if the bad guys win  …E      A
