"Shit Show" - The Story Behind the Song
SHIT SHOW
At what point in a career politician’s life do they go from caring about the people they serve to caring about the country they serve.
I’m ok by the way if there’s a group of politicians that serve for the good of our country, and the head of that group is the president of the United States. It makes perfect sense actually. Maybe, there should also be a second president. The president of the People of the United States. Someone who actually cares about the people, about our homeless rates, about our unemployed, about our education system and our policing system, etc, etc.
The song Shit Show is a rant that goes out to the politicians who have forgotten why they got into politics. The politicians who forgot what they promised and what they’ve said along the way. The politicians who have forgotten who they serve.
This is a song about disappointment.
The chorus sums up the entire song in the first line.
“Here we go again”
Song Art and Lyrics Below:

Shit Show
After everything that’s been said
Why are you still in my head
I can’t think of any reason
The more I to listen to you
Tell us all lies on the news
We want info not your preachin’
Here we go again
Round and round again
Don’t tell us what you don’t know
Here we go again
Round and round and round again
This has become such a shit show
You’re not who you promised you'd be
You’re the one that tells me I’m free
How did we let this happen
We put a lot of our faith in you
So you could do the things you said you’d do
What happened to all your passion
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
Shit Show
Fucking Shit
Shit Show
