Hi, I've written a spoken word piece that has all the dark and twisted trappings of Ballard/Joy Division with the punch of the Last Poets. Happy to work in a range of genres. Rock, electronica, techno, radically alt-folk. Here are the lyrics. If you disagree with them, we can discuss our differences privately, on this thread I'll only be replying to those genuinely interested in a collaboration. Have a great night.

America the Hydra

Strange fruit hanging
From the popular trees
Muslim, Jew, Black
Could be new or me


Say they stand for Justice
but they kneel on necks.
I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe.
Who’s gonna be next


America the Hydra
America the brave
Cocking an Uzi as
You sell lemonade

America the Hydra,
America the scared
Kids go to school
with wills prepared


Second amendment
Keeps me secure and safe.
Get out of my driveway.
Unless you want to be waste-


Ted riding shotgun on
Highway 95.
He’s stopping for no one
Coz he knows he’s right.

Got a 60 tonne rig
Of jet fuel and glory
Soon the whole world’s
Gonna know his story


America the Hydra,
America the con,
The President’s a smirking
Gold-ringed Don.
America the Hydra,
America the scream,
Romans by the wall
Shooting up morphine




Lady Liberty
Scratches at veins
Bugged by meth
And QAnon games.

Uncle Sam waltzes
Kids down the aisle.
Let me show you how
To hate with a smile.


Can’t control our body weight.
So we’ll control the border.
Get the dog sniffed up.
We’re bringing law and order.


America the hydra,
America the mad
Oxy and apple pie
With God in the bag

America the hydra
America off rails
Sucking the spangled banner
As the empire flails




Fingernails stream Fox
Twenty four seven
I scroll cannibal clips
I’m seething in heaven


Zoom down rabbit holes
To echo chambers,
We spread code and secrets
Like Intimate strangers


Facts don't matter
When clicks mob the truth
King capped Kennedy
In a Detroit telephone booth


America the hydra
America the free
Shrieking lifted skirts
and liberty

America the hydra
America the new
That knock on the door
could it be for you?
