LYRICS
Is spreading lies about the deed
As evil as the deed?
Indeed
I must concede

If the only evidence you are claiming is: lack of evidence
That makes no sense

Unless I’m mentally sick
And can’t cope with logic
The rumor mill is ill
Ain’t no cure… nor pill —
Ill

I’ll try all my while
Not to bend the message I send
But, please tell me do….
You’ll talk true, too

May you and logic 101 become one before your days are done

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords
Em7(11) Em Bm

66 BPM (increase tempo after 8 or 9 minute) / Rock Ballad

This song was inspired by conversations with conspiracy theorists on the anniversary of 9/11. I witnessed many things on that day. It was real. To create rumors of a conspiracy… well.. might it be just as evil?

The Truth About 9/11. An article about a song written and recorded the morning of September 11, 2001 (as I watched it happen.)

A couple more songs written on this anniversary:

Daniel — Vocals, Keyboards, Synthesizers (microKorg; Yamaha PSR-740; Korg N364), Controller and Computer (Alesis Vortex with a sustain peddle, a USB to a laptop running Korg software, and it also has a midi cable to the Korg N364)

LYRICS
Seriously? Conspiracy theory?

It’s kind-of pungent
To be that ignorant
One thinks it stinks

Seriously? Really seriously?
Your conspiracy theory
So silly
You must be kiddin’ me
Seriously? Conspiracy theory?

Why chemtrails in the sky
Why 9/11… some divine heaven
Why vaccination intimidation

Silly. Seriously conspiracy theory?

Do you like the controversy
When you distort the story
Or is really just pungence
From ignorance
One thinks it stinks!

LYRICS
You can see a conspiracy theory with every entity
Tales of chemtrails blowing hot air in the sails
Oh, no! GMO phobia phenomenon
You just go on and on and on

Yes, it’s freaking me out
How you know nothing about

I mean isn’t it obscene when you won’t give your kid a vaccine
You’re unaware modern healthcare is way better than fair
Beware! Your lack of B12 has left you bewildered
Wondered

You make a fuss about how business treats all of us
I’ll be damned. You don’t understand it’s from your demand
Won’t see clear that nuclear could be our savior
The fusion solution for our pollution

LYRICS
The conspiracy is in the hypocrisy of society
99% of the population exploiting themselves
99% of the our evolution burns our wealth
The time to take responsibility for me
Started the moment I was born
It shouldn’t take eternity to see
What we burn
Is what we earn
When we’ve burned is all we earned
What we’ve burnt… isn’t
Maybe then… we’ll yearn
For rationality
As our nationality
Unite
Fight
Hypocrisy
Cold turkey
Quit
Hypocrite
