I guess it is hard to drum up angst when it is sunny and a bunch of hardbodies are walking around in bikinis. Greta songs. The guitar solo on this song is brilliant because of the way it fits the music. Simple start, interesting middle, and out with a flare. I really admire the playing.

Isn't the correct lyric: Ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand? My bad if you're not quoting Witch Hunt by Rush. Edit - please ignore. I cheated and googled what song you were quoting. Sorry about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you realize the song you'll understand it's definitely not in the same vein as those song writers. Here's a couple more lines: I got a cousin and she got a friend, Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help At his apartment I knocked on the door, He wouldn't come out until he got paid. Now don't tell anybody what I wanna do If they find out you know that they'll never let me through 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
