I Pity the Country

Originally posted on October 28, 2020

A protest song that everybody needs to hear. Sadly, I suspect few will bother, and it is only preaching to the converted.

โ€œI pity the country
I pity the state
And the mind of a man
Who thrives on hate.
Small are the lives
Of cheats and of liars
Of Bigoted news press
Fascist town criersโ€

It's been a few years since Leanne, Nick Ferrio and I recorded this song after playing it at #NativeNorthAmericanGathering in Ottawa. Miigwech for watching!
