Hi Ezekiel, why are some calling you Scott?
is this your nickname or real name instead of Ezekiel?
I was wondering, because of the 'golden showers', were you refering to Trump?
He also liked to be like Putin and both are mad as, as... whatever!
It's a nice angry song and, like Misha said, kind of punk!
Very good lyrics.
And Mario... someone will shoot that lunatic. Within a week! i'm on my way...
Good song Ezekiel Scott,
Hans

Some may admire the beast, but you got inspired and that's healthy anger management. Good groove, good band with nice "soft-punk" approach, although the subject of your song would need harder treatment.
Janne Thanks, Janne!
Nice punk feel to it. Creative and imaginary lyric writing.
What's not to like about that?
Here's another verse for you.
A senile disaster in Afghanistan
A couple of laptops prove you're the "big man"
Bumbling into world war three without a plan.
I might just have to write something like this..... there's certainly enough grist.
I think you are on to something good. Write it. I can't wait to hear it. Clever, well written lyric.
A message that need to be heeded (but likely won't by those who need to)
Nice Grungy BAND.
Good attitudinal vocal.
I like it.

Thanks, Floyd!

Very good song about a terrible subject.
Good voice, matches very well with this kind of song.
In our country (like most European countries) more and more refugees from Ukraine arrive.
We listen and watch the news all day!
Rob and Anne-Marie Rob and Anne-Marie, thanks for the feedback. Scott,
Excellent and timely punk. Well delivered message. Composition, vocals and mix are ACE! Listens very well.
As unwritten rule, good punk music is often born in turbulent times. Thank you for speaking out and sharing.
Misha.
P.S. poo-tin does not deserve a "quick one", I think a lifetime vacation in a mine in Siberia would do him better. Perhaps a groupon tickets for his buddies too. Unreal how much pain and suffer he caused.
Two of my grandparents are of Ukrainian heritage. When I was 5, family visited my uncle in Ukraine. One of the best childhood memories. He passed away couple of years back. Thinking about it now, maybe it's for the better, not to see all this horror.
Thanks, Misha. I didn't know until now that you and I have a common heritage. Scott,
OUCH - you sting!
The mind set of the ones the chorus is aimed at is unbelieveable but not as remarkable as the millions who support it.
COOL song, nice edge to your critique. Ray, you are right on about the millions. Thanks.

Well done, Scott. Original and passionate, fitting for someone with family roots in that part of the world.

Man, you're not pulling any punches!
Some others have mentioned a punk feel. Kick the tempo up by 10 beats per minute and kick on the distortion pedal and it would sound like something the Dead Kennedys would do.

"intolerance of dumba$$ery", indeed!  Excellent work, Scott, love your vocal. Thanks, Dave. Much appreciated. A perfect choice of style. Purposeful lyrics, encapsulated with a darkness fitting of the subject.
This could be something from the 'Rocky Horror' show, except without the 'Rocky' part. Ha! Thanks, A.T. The Dumba$$ery is pathetic and disgusting but, what frightens me more is the hordes of double duma$$ess that eat it up the propaganda like candy.

Thank heavens your cousins from Ukraine are safe...
My heart goes out to them, and all the People suffering there...
I'm not a fan of most "Punk" music, but this is as good as anything from that genre I've heard.
I love the angst in the vocal and music...

Ezekiel,
Love that rhythm—pulls you right in. Great vocals as usual. Has a Bowie vibe for me, something right out of his 70’s catalogue. The Grunge Lead Guitar works really well. Some clever lines, particularly in that bridge with all the name-dropping. Good stuff!
Hope all is well in your world,
Deej

We love it! The older we get the less tolerance we have for many things, including dumba$$ery. You’ve got a great band and mix for an excellent vocal and lyric and you sing with ATTITUDE very well! “Megalomaniac man of the hour Craving all that absolute power” Great lines! We hope for the best for your cousins too, Scott. Well done! J&B

Hey there, Hans. My name is Scott, but you can call me either one. You are right on about the content of the song.

Very cool punk tune. Loved the backtrack and instrumentation. I really don't understand the what goes on in peoples heads anymore. It seems the most extreme ideology is the norm today. It seems the left and right have become so polarized it is an automatic for one to disagree with the other side without actually listening to what they are saying. We are in a sad situation. Pragmatism seems to be lost.
