about

One of my more recent songs. I wrote this about 2 or 3 years ago, but I only just now got around to recording it.

lyrics

All My life I heard them say
The squeaky wheel will get fixed
Well, that's not right, that's not OK
It might be time for us to resist

In this ever-changing world we live in
We could win the race
If everyone would finally give in
And get that squeaky wheel replaced

Sometimes the world won't go your way
Sometimes the world will laugh in your face
But that's no reason to act this way
Just stand tall and save some face

In this ever-changing world we live in
We could win the race
If everyone would finally give in
And get that squeaky wheel replaced

All your life you heard them say
The squeaky wheel will get fixed
It's just not right, It's got to change
It's finally time for us to resist

In this ever-changing world we live in
We could win the race
If everyone would finally give in

In this ever-changing world we live in
We could win the race
If everyone would finally give in
And get that squeaky wheel replaced
