Details:
Bob Lanoue has been playing music for most of his life, from Led Zeppelin to Nat King Cole. Since the beginning of the Bush regime, a powerful rage has been building inside him. A chance remark by another performer at a coffee house about the lack of protest songs was just the catalyst he needed to write this song and release six years of pent-up rage. It is a powerful, soulful, passionate call to action!

EXCERPT:

In a horrible nightmare a band begins to play.
The music is frightening but the crowd begins to sway. Its an evil dark circus in the middle of the nightâ¦
And the crowd sways to the left â¦.but then it sways back to the rightâ¦.
We try to stop the evil nightmare⦠put the Elephant in its cage.
Itâs been stomping all around in a frenzied killing rage. It wears a giant cross of gold and it drives a big Humvee.
But it worships down on Wall Street, it donât pray with you and me.
The ringmasterâs a puppetâ¦with brains of sawdustâ¦that we know.
I say Satan pulls his stringsâ¦weâve got to end their evil show.
We examine our options as we go to vote once more.â¦
We got a black manâ¦and a woman⦠Mr. Edwards, maybe Gore.
I propose this to you neighbors, it doesnât matter one damn bit.
But if we re-elect the elephant then we deserve this stinking sh..It is time to end this freakinâ circus fascist nightmare that weâre in.
Have you followed what theyâre doinâ?
Have you tallied up their sins?
Letâs open our eyes folksâ¦. pull our heads out ...aww⦠assess â¦the damage done.
Some say itâs just the neo-cons but theyâre all Republicans. Look what theyâve doneâ¦.
But weâre the onesâ¦â¦ who let them do itâ¦. You know its us they aim to please.
Theyâre doinâ what theyâre doinâ So we can drive our SUVs.
How many dead babies does it take to fill our tank?
We got that big - Dick - Cheney and Mr. Wolfowitz to thank...............
