Hi everyone,

Sorry I was away for some time. These times are a bit troublesome and I made a song about that.
It is a Bluesy song and called: When fools vote https://on.soundcloud.com/xudkn1Ky35m1zP7d7
In a lot of western countries there are democratic tensions. And you also notice this during elections.
Well, that's the brief summary.
The lyrics will tell what I mean. I hope you enjoy the song.
Or at least tell me what you think of it.

When fools vote
(c) HWBerkhout (15022025)

I drive the highway, near the shore
No turning back, like times before
Harmony: Kind of lonely, this fridaynight
I've heard all the news, it made me sigh
Is seems the world has lost its mind

Still on that highway, speeding fast
Feels like I'm racing through the past
Harmony: Kind of lonely, this fridaynight
Wars are brewing, tensions rise
Look around you, it's no surprise

Chorus
You Fools, look what you've done
'We, the people' will be overrun
You vote for tyrants, creeps and clowns,
causing us all going 'down'

You let crooks destroy democracy
But you call it 'fate', so carelessly...
Harmony: Kind of lonely, this fridaynight
You might forgot they go their own way
You will regret it, one day!

Solo
Chorus

I once trusted justice and the state
but that quickly crumbled and I lost my faith
Harmony: Kind of lonely, how does this end?
See them grin, grabbing all power
Leaving us a 'cold shower'!

Chorus
last line: .... causing the world going 'down'

Outro
I drive the highway, near the shore
No turning back, not like before
Harmony: Kind of lonely, that's what it is
I pressed the gas, into the darkness
Letting my thoughts go free, think I hear the sea...
