Description
This is a Friday afternoon quickie.
No, the other kind. Get your mind out of the gutter.
The guitars, bass, vocals and most of the drums were down in an hour or two Friday afternoon. The rest of the drums and the lead guitar, such as it is, was done this evening.
Not really a metal guy and not sure if this should have been metal, hard rock or something else. Maybe polka. Just not sure. But this is actually not too far from a lot of music I was doing with one of the bands I was in during the early 90s back in college. Except, we had a real guitar player. I just played bass and screamed drunkenly into the mic.
As for what the inspiration was behind the tune, I'll just say this: I've GOT to stop reading the news...

Tear The Down
@2011 Joseph Gurner
No time for hypocracy
as they spread their atrocities
Screaming lies as they run us down
Make the masses feel the pain
Can’t be bothered with the real world
so easy to ignore
Put you lies on the eving news
Makes us think we can choose
No time for empathy
No time for humanity
Bring the masses down to their knees
Spread your lies like the plague
Can’t be bothered with the real world
when there’s money to be made
Put your lies in a sermon
As we all start to pray
Tear them down
Fight their words
Stop their lies
Tear them down
No time for charity
as they divide society
Blame the poor for being poor
the sick for the disease
Can’t be bothered with the real world
make lies into the truth
Put poison into their minds
Make them fear the unknown
Tear them down
Fight their words
Stop their lies
Tear them down
Tear them down
Fight their words
Stop their lies
Tear them down
Tear them down
Fight their words
Stop their lies
Tear them down

Tear them down
Tear them down

Joe, you're showing your love for Neil Young's heavier moments. We are rocking in the free world again! Maybe with a tad more grit in the vocal. I love it!
