I released an SPT track about drinking urine from a Russian prostitute last year ("Party Pills")

Skip Spence - Little Hands

Holy shit, Bowie's 'Fantastic Voyage' just fucked me up on this front.

You're so vain, you probably think this song is retroactively about you

I feel like every Linkin Park song must be sung from Trump's POV

otm

they could've played "in the end" at the end of his acceptance speech on election night instead of the stones, would've worked just as well

Also..

Bad Religion "We're Only Gonna Die (From Our Own Arrogance"

Frank Sinatr "My Way"

Ying Yang Twins -Wait

the entire b-side of Gary McFarland's America the Beautiful:

1st Movement – “If I Am Elected"
2nd Movement – Last Rites For The Promised Land
3rd Movement – Due To A Lack Of Interest, Tomorrow Has Been Cancelled

(I guess these were inspired by LBJ's presidency?)

the majority of this album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Umhz8TfmLqQ

Was it ever confirmed that Incubus "Megalomaniac" was actually about George W Bush like everyone thought even though they said it wasn't?

Immortal "The Sun No Longer Rises"

Surrounded by black and mourning moonfog
And the eyes of the Dark Ones
Sempiternal woods wait only for me
A path opens clearly
The sun no longer rises
Over cold and forgotten valleys
The sun no longer rises
Where I walk and where I come
I believe in tragedies
I believe in desecration
To the north and into eternal winters
To the north in the grip of eternal frost

Nirvana, "Very Ape"

I am buried up to my neck in
Contradictionary lies
I take pride as the kind of illiterature
I'm very ape and very nice

If you ever need anything please don't hesitate
to ask someone else first
I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive.
I've seen it all I was here first

Out of the ground
Into the sky
Out of the sky
Into the dirt

Also there's always "One in A Million" by Guns n' Roses. Bigotry, America-style - it never really changes. The targets are always the same.

not even retro, really

Tsjuder - "Malignant Coronation"

I summon You o Mighty One
I can hear You Calling
Whipsering words unspoken
Yes so clear
I can see the Gathering of Thousands
I can feel the Evil breathing
I know the Time has come
I know my Time has come
O Mighty Lord of Chaos and Destruction
O Ruler of Darkness
Spirits of Ancient Times has been awakened
Daemons of the Underworld come forth
The Sky turns back as never seen before
The Smell of Death approaches
O Mighty Lord of Evil and Hatred
O Ruler of Infinity
My Horde has finally awaken
I can see them raging
They now summon Me
I am their Master
Prepare for Desecration!

When Will You Die — They Might Be Giants

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSQ8tZ35t4U

I'm so tired of your lies
And the evil things you're doing behind my back

Are there crimes that you have never committed?
I doubt it, sometimes I wonder when will you die?

You're insane, you are bad
You wreck everything you touch and you're a sociopath

But there's one thing that everyone's wondering
When will you die?

Schoolchildren stay at home (yeah)
And all the banks will close (yeah)
Each year we'll mark the date (yeah)
On which we celebrate (yeah)

I know how, I know why
I can picture every part of your comeuppance
Except for the one remaining piece of the puzzle
Which is when you'll die

This is Dan, and that's Dan
And there's Marty on the drums to complete the band
And I'm John, and he is also John
And all of us are wondering when you're gonna die

Still you live, you go on
But you're running up the clock and if we knew how long
I'd be counting down the days until the lovely one on which you're gone

On that promised morning
We will wake and greet the dawn
Knowing that your wicked life is over
And that we will carry on

We'll exhale, we'll high five
We will know at last how great it is to be alive
We'll be lining up and buying tickets
And then we'll be jumping up and down on your grave

You're insane, you are bad
You wreck everything you touch and you're a sociopath

And the only way to mitigate
Would be to know the date
You scheduled to vacate
When are you going to die?
Look me in the eye
Tell me when you'll die

Great one!

Metallica - ...And Justice For All

Halls of justice painted green
Money talking
Power wolves beset your door
Hear them stalking
Soon you’ll please their appetite
They devour
Hammer of justice crushes you
Overpower

The ultimate in vanity
Exploiting their supremacy
I can’t believe the things you say
I can’t believe
I can’t believe the price you pay
Nothing can save you

Justice is lost
Justice is raped
Justice is gone
Pulling your strings
Justice is done
Seeking no truth
Winning is all
Find it so grim
So true
So real

"When Will You Die" has been popping into my head all year.

"He's Misstra Know-It-All"

Lesley Gore - "You Don't Own Me"

I saw the fireworks
I believed that I was dreaming
Till the neighbors came out screaming
He's a third world man

Great song

already posted but "When Will You Die?" by TMBG is so on the nose it might get them a visit from the Secret Service if they released it today

I really like that No Vacation song, but it seems to have been released in 2017?

Have had this thought about Graham Parker's "You've Got to Be Kidding."

You've got to be building a wall
Inside an endless empty hall
You've got to be joking anyway to be here at all
