Baa

by on Nov.16, 2011, under Daniel, lyrics

Baa check
Baaaaaa
Blah check
Blaaaaaah
Wear a funny hat
Wear a funny heart
Wear a funky charm
Stand on stage
Rage
For authority
In hypocrisy
Of our age
Bringing harm
Instead of help
False alarm yelp

Question Less

by on Nov.16, 2011, under chords, Daniel, lyrics

How can you hoard
When you’re homeless
You’re never board with Earth
When Earth’s your nest

Trying to find the ends
To make ends meet
Thank God, Mother Nature lends

Shelter, drink and something to eat
That’s good… Mother Nature sends

Why do humans hoard
When they need less
Squirrel away for their rainy day
Creating a mess
For those with less
No measure of success
Comparing oneself to the homeless
No measure of success
Compared to worthless

Em / Am
C / Am / Em

Frackin Chicken Franchise

by on Nov.12, 2011, under Daniel, lyrics

This song is dedicated to Rob, Alix, Gandolf and especially N.A. Poe:

I wanna start a fracking chicken franchise
Where we frack chicks for everyone
A fracking chicken franchise
In every Occupy
To supply
Jobs for all

Enough with the GA
And, how they say
“Which came first
The chicken or the egg?”

Frack putting the round hole
Around the square peg

Why did the chicken cross the road?
To try n’ hide
From the ridiculous side
Of the mob slob

Instead, let us be fed
With frackin’ chicken
The Frackin’ Chicken Franchised
Just, trademarked
Over a foul remark
Meant to cause ill will
Still, we will not run a fowl…

Now, Kentucky Fried Chicken
Is mighty fine
But, all I ask is to dine…
With Frackin’ Chicken so sublime

Enough of the straw-poul…treeeee
God, help me

A frackin’ chicken franchise
In every Occupy
Will supply
’till the day we die
*repeat*

About This Song

Daniel writes the song Your Move at the Your Move sculpture in Center City, Philadelphia

SONG

lyrics
(It’s) Your Move

Written November 3, 2011 at the Your Move sculpture

A giant game piece
Used in the name of peace
Across from where you park love

Helicopter whirling overhead
I still overheard
A voice rise above,
“It’s your move!”

Move your piece
Move your peace
Move for peace

Contrast Comcast
Cast your system
System of casts
Not, what I am

Move your piece
Move your peace
Move for peace

2. Your Move [Protest song written and recorded on location for Occupy Philadelphia]

MY LETTER TO CITY HALL
To whom it may concern:

Pursuant to today’s telephone conversation, thank you for your assistance. As you suggested, I did contact the Mayor’s Press Department.

It is my desire to coordinate press in two ways:
1) Obtain any positive *copy* covering the Philadelphia Police Department and the Mayor’s office. Any statements, press releases or related materials that can be edited and/or redistributed to news organizations would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for any information that will help substantiate that the Philadelphia Police have been doing an excellent job at Occupy Philly, as well as, being civil and cordial.

2) An on-camera appearance by representatives from the Police Department or the Mayor’s Office. Besides praising the Departments on camera, I would like to review the *move plan* offered to Occupy Philly by the Mayor. If we could shoot on-location Thursday or Friday during a picture perfect day, I would like to meet.

Questions include:
Where can Occupy Philly move? [The area will be filmed.]
Will there be electric?
Does Occupy Philly need any permits? Permits to move? Permits to play music? etc.
Can the move start this weekend?

Thank you. I shall await your advice.

Bring On The Sun

Writing the song *Bring On The Sun* at Occupy Philadelphia

Writing the song *Bring On The Sun* at Occupy Philadelphia

Just bring it on
Bring on the sun
The light
The warmth
Insight
Depth and breadth

The night’s too long and cold
Just have hope and faith
I’m told

Lord, bring on the sun
Darkness undone
Lord, bring on the sun
Darkness undone

Lord, it’s here
I hear it’s here
In fact,
I feel it on my back

Writing the song Severe Whether underground at City Hall, Philadelphia

How do you even start
Where would you even begin
Before it’s snowin’
Not knowin’
Whether

What are you doing here
Do you know whether
You’re wrong or right
Do you know whether
You should really fight
Poverty. Society.
Do you care whether
You jeopardize democracy

Dear, you’re severe

To: You

by on Oct.25, 2011, under Daniel, lyrics

Writing the song *To You* at Occupy Philadephia

I can’t believe the things
You did
All the goodness
You hid
So, now I’m saying…
Saying goodnight to you
Why get rid
Of a rational
Point-of-view?

Now, I’m saying
Goodnight
Goodnight
To: You

Witch Which

by on Oct.25, 2011, under Daniel, lyrics

Daniel Brouse, Songwriter, writes the song *Witch Which* at Occupy Philadelphia

Writing the song at City Hall, Broad and Market, Philadelphia, PA

Did you sleep through the alarm?
Were you anticipating
No Harm?
The world transpiring
While you control
The switch

You didn’t move
You didn’t twitch
You didn’t love
You’re the witch

You didn’t move
You didn’t twitch
You didn’t love
You’re the which
