about
Mags has something to say about disinformation in this laid-back groove.
lyrics
A simple fix
for the pickle we’re in
is more political ethics
less cynical spin
More straight talk
clarity and fact
Less of the poppycock (pappekak)
and bloviating yak yak
Give me brass tacks,
precision in prose,
Try to keep it exact,
bombast blows
Preserve the pith,
the crux, the gist
Scrupulous rhetoric
is how we get out of this
Biblical blather? I’d rather not
Fatuous flattery? Ought to be a crime
Logical fallacies?
Not up my alley, please
Disputatious twits are a waste of time
If you’ve had enough of
insidious idiots
Flabbergast the asshats
with the real nitty-gritty,
the actual factual
whole truth, nothing but
for the pickle we’re in
is more political ethics
less cynical spin
More straight talk
clarity and fact
Less of the poppycock (pappekak)
and bloviating yak yak
Give me brass tacks,
precision in prose,
Try to keep it exact,
bombast blows
Preserve the pith,
the crux, the gist
Scrupulous rhetoric
is how we get out of this
Biblical blather? I’d rather not
Fatuous flattery? Ought to be a crime
Logical fallacies?
Not up my alley, please
Disputatious twits are a waste of time
If you’ve had enough of
insidious idiots
Flabbergast the asshats
with the real nitty-gritty,
the actual factual
whole truth, nothing but

about
the Mad Maggies California
The Mad Maggies play genre fluid, mostly original, mostly danceable music with a dash of hot pepper and a swig of
slivovitz -- they kick up some dust.
They are available to play private parties, large festivals & everything else in between.

Accordion Crumbs

Rebecca Richman
by Rebecca RichmanSoul-filled fiddling by an elusive, super-talented artist. This is great "trad" with tasteful guitar and keyboard accompaniment. "Sunday River Waltz" will make you teary-eyed.

Kingshat Soul Serenade
