about

This song came out of my need to rage against this insane man, 45, who had held us hostage the four years of his reign, and his followers, who followed him like lemmings over a cliff.

The arrival of the pandemic would serve as the breaking point, ensuring that the U.S. under his misleadership would be dragged down and made us the Laughing Stock of the World.

No longer were Americans welcome outside of their own country - truly, a wall had finally been built - America had become a prison unto itself.

lyrics

Laughing Stock

Gimme Liberty or gimme death -- that’s what they said,
But now that death is what you get, can you at least express regret?
Ya gotta choose your battles wisely, and we can’t fight what we can’t see
So much unnecessary suffering -- for lack of a simple covering..

Laughing Stock, what you got, Laughing Stock of All The World
Couldn’t stop thought you were hot, now you flopped and your a laughing stock
Laughing Stock, whatcha got, laughing stock of all the world
Finally built that bloody wall - cuz no one wants an American at all…

Hey’d ya hear the news? There’s a fire sale on the truth!
Conspiracy’s cottage industry, better rush in before the Russians,(hurry!!!)
Late state capitalist decay, kiss it all g’bye before it goes away
Say bye to the Mom and Pops -- the libraries, post office, n all you got

Hey Laughing Stock, what you got, Laughing Stock of All The World
Finally built that bloody wall - cuz no one wants an American at all…
Talking Bull that shit you pull you pulled the wool over your flock
But still your flock go for your schlock and they’re takin’ it to the graveyard

Yeah your shithole country’s finally come to be
First you shat on the truth then you shat on the peace
You shat on the migrants families, you shat your White Supremacy
You sprayed your shit conspiracies
You shat on the environment and the air we breathe
You showcased your crap with that shit on your hat
Now shitty toilet papers hanging down your back

Hey Laughing Stock, what you got, Laughing Stock of all the world
Finally built that bloody wall - cuz no one wants an American at all…
Talking bull that shit you pull you pulled the wool over your flock
But still your flock go for your schlock and they’re takin’ it to the graveyard...

You say you wanna get the hell outta here - but noone’ll take your passport, Dear!

Hey Laughing Stock!!....Ha ha ha….Laughing Stock...ha ha ha

Listen to what your good niece said, drop out and get help for your head
Four years you’re holding us hostage - man, work your shit out with a therapist!

Hey Laughing Stock, what you got, Laughing Stock of All The World
Couldn’t stop thought you were hot, now you flopped and we’re a Laughing Stock
Talking bull that shit you pull you pulled the wool over your flock
But still your flock go for your schlock and they’re takin’ it to the graveyard

Hey Laughing Stock, what you got, Laughing Stock of All The World
Finally built that bloody wall - cuz no one wants an American,
A Dangerous American, An Ignorant Narcissistic Ugly American at all…

jonathan green San Francisco, California

A Native New Yorker, I’ve taken the long route to making music, from film school to being a SAG actor and screenwriter. My first break was getting "Hundred Story Buildings", a 9/11 tribute song, played on the radio. In 2009 I recorded my first EP demo and in 2014 released my first full length CD “My Nature”, with great musicians and lots of love and hard work. Stay tuned for new work in 20-21. ... more
