about

Recording this happened alooong time ago. Waaaaay back in 2011 at Mind Control Studios in Yucaipa, CA. Andy Burris took controls and kicked ass.

On this recording and, at the time, GPB was a 4 piece. We are now a 3 piece. Harmonies and "killer guitar licks" were provided by Jerry. Written by Toddball. Speech taken from The Great Dictator.

lyrics

Of all the times you’d get pushed down you’ve kept your grace
Holding tight and fighting fierce hiding your face
You got a lot knocked out with a boot stompdown and fist fight craze
its the seedy underside while hardly gratified that’ll keep them all away

A broad stroke swipe on the right hand side took out what’s left
A fatted up calf on parade gone past marks the postman’s death
You were one step away from a blacked out day with a pair to match
And all the while killing smiles fake greetings held for miles and a plain marked grave.

You’ve seen it all and made it past.
You’ve dealt it all and made it what you wanted when you wanted it.
You’ve seen it all and made it past.
All the makings of a monster but you’re unafraid

"Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind.“

Alone, angry, hands clamped tight double fisting nights away
Drunk and sloppy always beats neat, nice and tucked away

Keeping all your ethos tight
leaves that scraping on your side

Hapless Victim
