Why didn't you wear a suit?

I made something! I had to, after watching one of the most shameful moments of statemanship in our country's history. 

I don't know how important hashtags are any more, but feel free to suggest more.

Nazis Are Bad

Listen up. But also, I encourage others to play it too. I wanna see a million covers of this. Or write your own! 

Yes, I published this a couple years ago, but it was less urgent than. Here we are again...

But keep the message simple: Nazis are BAD. (Duh!)

For musicians, here are the lyricds and chords:

Nazis Are Bad

E D A E D A, E A D A

We seem to have reached a time
When Nazis seem alright -- they're not
Nazis are bad, Nazis are bad
Nazis are bad, Nazis are bad
Nazis are bad

When skinheads speak their minds
It's up to us to decide
Is what they say shit or is it legit?
Some have been had, some think it's a fad
Nazis are bad

So you thought you'd stick with the guy
Who sticks his gun in everyone's eye
Fascists decide to give it a try
Italy tried, lots of men died
Nazis are bad

Solo Break

We need to take a stand to keep free our land
We don't need more hate to make this place great
We need to be kind, keeping in mind
Nazis are bad

We seem to have reached a time
When Nazis seem alright -- they're not
Nazis are bad, Nazis are bad
Nazis are bad, Nazis are bad
Nazis are bad

Billy's Books 92: The McCartney Legacy Vol. 2

The McCartney Legacy Vol. 2 covers the years 1974-1980. This was peak Wings era. Everything was going right: new hot lineup, hit records, a world tour... For Paul personally, the Beatles eventually resolved most of their differences, so they started being nice to each other again. Maybe they could even work together?

I think this is interesting and funny.
