Well we have another General election coming up, I have never been able to understand why working class people vote Conservative. So this song is sung in character, the character being based on my biased idea of what a conservative voter must be like, their thought processes, values and lack of empathy.

Is a bit of a dirge and I am sorry if it might offend some folk, but hopefully you can empathise with me.

Hey I'm alright Jack
It's only empathy I lack
So why don't you, get off my back
I'm not your safety net
I'm only out for what I can get
What's mine is mine and you can bet
You're getting none of it
You see I just don't care
'Bout what's right and fair
So why don't you, get out of my hair
Why should I give a fuck
Cos you're down on your luck
Get off your big fat arse and go find some work
Don't want to hear about your bleeding heart
Well man that's just too bad
Ain't nothing I can do about that
I'm fine and that's okay
I work hard and I earn my pay
Why the hell should I give that away
You made your bed so lie in it
And I don't give a fucking shit
I have my life and you're no part of it
You'll get no sympathy from me
So just fuck off and leave me be
Hey I'm alright Jack, can't you see
Hey! I'm Alright Jack

Well said brother.  Sounds like something I would write, by bleeding heart liberal brother.  I wrote a lyric about our elections a few months ago.  Haven't had a chance to put it to music, but I think I'll call it The Monkey.

Good sound you've recorded here.  Well balanced and steady guitar playing. I love listening to you sing your lyrics, what is to me an accent and all.

Peace,

Awesome sounds, groove, and the voice, as always surrounds the other instruments.  Your topic, hits home also here on this side of the planet, and it also hits hard on the south-land ~ with all the struggles of my country of birth ~ Venezuela and all the shit going on there also...  Abrazos ~
