Show us the songs you find best describe Biden and Trump.

Here's mine:
Biden:
 Pete Seeger, "Tomorrow is a Highway"

Tomorrow is a highway broad and fair,
And we are the many who'll travel there.
Tomorrow is a highway broad and fair,
And we are the workers who'll build it there;
And we will build it there.
Come, let us build a way for all mankind,
A way to leave this evil year behind,
To travel onward to a better year
Where love is, and there will be no fear,
Where love is and no fear.
Now is the shadowed year when evil men,
When men of evil thunder war again.
Shall tyrants once again be free to tread,
Above our most brave and honored dead?
Our brave and honored dead.
O, comrades, come and travel on with me,
We'll go to our new year of liberty.
Come, walk upright, along the people's way,
From darkness, unto the people's day.
From dark, to sunlit day. Tomorrow is a highway broad and fair
And hate and greed shall never travel there
But only they who've learned the peaceful way
Of brotherhood, to greet the coming day.
We hail the coming day.

Trump
Sex Pistols "Liar"

Lie lie lie lie you liar
You lie lie lie, tell me why
Tell me why, why d'you have to lie
Should've realized that you
Should've told the truth
Should've realized you know what I'll do
You're in suspension you're a liar
Now I wanna know, now-now I wanna known why
You never look me in the face
Broke a confidence just to please your ego
Should've realized you know what I know
You're in suspension you're a liar
I know where you go everybody you know
I know everything that you do or say
So when you tell lies I always be in your way
I'm nobody's fool and I know all 'cause I know
What I know
You're in suspension you're a liar
You're a liar
You're a liar
Lie lie lie lie lie lie liar
Lie lie lie lie you liar lie lie lie
I think you're funny you're funny ha ha
I don't need it don't need your blah blah
Should've realized I don't know what you are
You're in suspension
You're in suspension
You're in suspension
You're a liar
You're a liar
You're lie liar lie



“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”

    No more!
    The crap rolls out your mouth again
    Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin
    Little whispers circle around your head
    Why don't you worry about yourself instead

    Who are you? Where ya been? Where ya from?
    Gossip is burning on the tip of your tongue
    You lie so much you believe yourself
    Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

    Holier than thou
    You are
    Holier than thou
    You are

    You know not

    Before you judge me take a look at you
    Can't you find something better to do
    Point the finger, slow to understand
    Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

    It's not who you are it's who you know
    Others lives are the basis of your own
    Burn your bridges build them back with wealth
    Judge not lest ye be judged yourself

    Holier than thou
    You are
    Holier than thou
    You are

    You know not

    Yeah
    Who the hell are you?

    Hey you

    Holier than thou
    You are
    Holier than thou
    You are

    You know not
    Know not, NOT!

    Peace
    *We CAN bomb the World to pieces, but we CAN'T bomb it into PEACE*...Michael Franti

    *MUSIC IS the expression of EMOTION.....and that POLITICS IS merely the DECOY of PERCEPTION*
    .....song_Music & Politics....Michael Franti

    *The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite INSANE*....Nikola Tesla(a man who shaped our world of electricity with his futuristic inventions)
