‘You Own This’ — #Lyrics To A Woke Pop-Rock Song

These lyrics are a rebuttal to all the people who continue to support Donald Trump. In my imagination, the music that went with this would be something you might hear in a Tove Lo song.

You Own This
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

as the earth slowly burns
and its turns aren’t a fast
people on the street can’t eat
they no longer stop to greet
the past and the present do meet
when the Nazis want to compete
all I can say is

you own this
when the end comes
you own this
when the end comes
you own this

I know where you stand
you think your man’s got a plan
we’re going to build a wall
but when it doesn’t come
will you have the gaul to admit
that your views are full of shit

you own this
when the end comes
you own this
when the end comes
you own this

[bridge]
wish there was some other way
something that would stop the flames
but we’re screwed it seems
while the masses scream

what are we going to do
will the moon refuse to shine
will the sun refuse to rise
whatever may happen I’m afraid
you own this
you own this
you own this

Talk To Me Internet: Some ‘Deep Thoughts’

Here is about an hour of me talking about any number of different interesting things. Enjoy

Mulling “It,” “It The Move” & “Stranger Things” #ItTheMovie

by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls

I find it interesting how similar and different It the book, It the movie and Stranger Things are. At the center of these differences are the characters Beverly Marsh played by Sophia Lillis and Eleven played by Bobby Millie Brown.

First, however, let’s talk about the differences between It the book and It the movie. While I really like It the movie, I have to admit that I was rather underwhelmed. The book is a rich, interesting tale about the power of childhood fears. The movie version, however, is strangely not as baroque as the book. I know that you can’t do as much with a movie as you can with a book, but I guess I was hoping that the book would a little bit more epic than it was.

But let’s address something I suspect we’re going to hear a lot about in the coming days — the similarities and differences between the characters of Beverly Marsh and Eleven. I have given it a lot of thought and I really like Beverly Marsh more than Eleven. Beverly seems more proactive to Eleven’s reactive. And Beverly is human and is literally isn’t afraid of the devil. Meanwhile, Eleven escapes any dangers by using magic.

Anyway, I go into more depth about this in the above video.

Talk To Me Internet: A Great Conversation

@bumgarls

This is a great conversation with AlyceIsCurious about everything and nothing. You should check it out. You get to see the two of us in action talking. It’s pretty funny at times. I keep telling her we should do a regular “show” but for some reason she’s reluctant.

Here’s a bonus Talk to Me Internet as well.
