Call me Des!
Songs are below - largely unsafe for kids and employers.


Talent is no more a grounds for respect than high ideals for copyright,
so, as I aspire to either or both, I swear never to profit
from this activist life project: (easy vow to keep so far!)

Songs are free if you don't like them,
"Suggested Donation: One Human Soul" if you do.

Anyone entering their email address here


is thrice cursed to forever know when new things happen
in my musical project, which is depressingly rare, don't worry.
 

Email me at des@despicablemusic.org for booking or to discuss ridding the world of hated evils including, if
applicable, this music.  I also draw hope and strength from fanmail, however misguided, so don't hold back!

SONGS Blather
Manhattan

This is a completely true story, except I went a month late this year.   Oh and I'm also a coward.

Pushing Up Daisy

This song I think manages to simultaneously and completely feel two opposite ways about the same  event .

The Arc of the Covenant This is a love song slathered in Douglas Rushkoff and maybe a little Michael Neumann.
Freezerburn This is a song about refrigeration technology, and being political, and maybe even climate change a bit.  I've updated the lyrics since.
15 min / 4 years

This is a song wondering how, if we're not involved daily in our democracy, it can possibly be there.

*** new: Power In The Blood****

This is a Chomskyan overview with even more atheist Biblical imagery, recorded 3 years back on some glorious fella's bass guitar.

Colorless Green This is a song about some very dear friends of mine and Noam Chomsky and Cthulhu and me.
(Every Inch Of My) Freedom This is a song that I avoid ever thinking too closely about when performing the instrumental section.
The Masturbation Rag This is a song about not loving someone enough.
What I Know This is a series of nice visual puns capped with an implausible gesture.
Hitler

This is a song about what we would all do if we had that time machine, or were hell to freeze over.

Land Called Jesus This is a atheist crucifixion porn.  - Hang on, that's the whole website! - waiting sadly for Obama with a hammer.
Don't Kick The TV This is a mournful love song with an attempted populist dig at liberalism attempted in the middle.
The @$#* Starts Here

This is a song that I tried to work the "muttonchops" hairstyle into, but rhyme or no rhyme it didn't take.

The Red Red Sea This is a song that convinced my Mom that my music was pure idiocy for a whole year after she heard it.
Long Live The King This was meant to be longer, but I sort of like it this way.
Cahoots This is a reaction to hearing somebody say "Some of us have lives" and thinking "Yes, but with that attitude, for how long?"
I'm Only Being True This is another attempt at equal-opportunity liberal- and conservative- bashing.  One day I'll rewrite it so it works.
Solid Fuel Rocket This is a song that I've since written a proper ending for, and may even have a recording of someday.
Mean

This is a song for, and only for, those who've lost no-one close in the war 'n' terror.  Humble apologies to anyone else are also in the song.

I Love Everybody This is an excuse to name the two kinds of circulation in plants, dragged reluctantly to odd places by the rhyme scheme.
GKTI

This is a lighthearted song about New York getting destroyed, as I felt we needed one in the year after 9/11.

The World's Big Secret This is a song about learning The World's Big Secret - _again_ - and adding it to the pile.
Fingerpuzzle This is an attempt at an Elvis Costello song, minus the pettiness and the genius and all that.  I hope ugly enough?
The Way

This is a song about lust of country, the highest and noblest lust available to Man.

I've got more songs to post and more to record, and these to eventually rerecord with something approaching decent quality.
I'll eventually have all of these and more on this website for you for nothing more than the soul thing, as stated. 
Please tell your friends about my site, and thanks.

Oh and I'm on myspace - sorry.
