I was asked to perform at the Occupy San Diego event and ended up making this music video using that footage and also footage from the Occupy Wall Street Protest.
Lyrics
Ok Ok won’t you let me think straight think straight. Rambling and rambling all day. Some say some say everybody will be ok. You gotta keep your head up today. I don’t understand why we’re so confused. Sittin round watching the TV news. It makes it worse. The television’s cursed and nobody will know the verse. Unless we all rehearse it first. I’m ready I’m steady I keep lookin but you won’t let me. I’m sorry but I refuse to believe that this is all we’re meant to be. You’ll be safe with me. You are safe with… Ok Ok everybody stand up straight. They’re comin from the back now… too late. One day one day everybody will be happy. You gotta get your head up today. Now I understand why we’re so confused. Sittin round watching the TV news. It makes it worse. The television’s cursed and nobody will know the verse. Unless we all rehearse it first. I’m ready I’m steady I keep lookin but you won’t let me. I’m sorry but I refuse to believe that this is all we’re meant to be. You’ll be safe with me. You are safe with me. I was just walkin down the avenue Lookin for something crazy to do You were lookin up while tying your shoe. Take me for a simple fool Walkin downtown to the swimming pool. Everybody knows that you will just drool. Play me such a simple song. Make it short so It don’t take long. All I wanna hear are the notes that are wrong. Now I understand why we’re all confused. Sittin round watching the TV news. It makes it worse. The television’s cursed and nobody will know the verse. Unless we all rehearse it first. I’m ready I’m steady I keep lookin but you won’t let me. I’m sorry but I refuse to believe that this is all we’re meant to be. You’ll be safe with me. You are safe with me.
