There’s a song by an alternative heavy metal band named Tool. They have a song called “7empest” pronounced Tempest. The lyrics below remind me of all their very questionable behind the scenes behavior. 


Heat lighting flash, but don't blink. Misleading
Tranquility ruse
You're gonna happen again
That's what I think
Follow the evidence
Look it dead in the eye
You are darkness
Trying to lull us in, before the havoc begins, into a dubious state of serenity
Acting all surprised when you're caught in the lie

We know better
It's not unlike you, it's not unlike you
We know your nature

Blame it all on the bastards when you're blowing out
Shame on you
Shame on you now
No amount of wind could begin to cover up your petulant stench and demeanor
Calm as cookies and cream, so it seems
We're not buying your dubious state of serenity
Acting all surprised when you're caught in the lie

We know better
It's not unlike you, it's not unlike you
We know your nature

Calm before the torrent comes
Calm before the torrent comes
Calm before the torrent comes
Calm before the tempest comes to reign all over

Disputing intentions invites devastation
A tempest must be true to its nature
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that
A tempest must be just that

Control, your delusion
Insane and striking at random
Victim of your certainty, and therefore your doubt's not an option
Blameless, the tempest will be just that
So try as you may, feeble, your attempt to atone
Your words to erase all the damage cannot

A tempest must be just that

The music may not be for everyone, but the words speak volumes. 

I agree. They always claim Maynard is genius, personally I'm not sure. But Danny Carey is one of the best drummers in the world. I knew that song had words, just never really felt it before. Thanks bro

I'm a Deadhead, so the music isn't really my scene. But I've always liked the lyrics from a lot of Tool's discography. My grandsons love Tool, and made me aware of them about 10 years ago.

I don't know one person who can listen to a polka if they're not dancing, and most not even then! Lol

If you never have, listen to "St. Steven" from the Live Dead album in 69. If you like Tool, you should like this.

My neighbors used to blare polka music in their backyard. And John Candy playin a clarinet in the back of a uhaul always make me laugh.

Trump and Rudy is now claiming powell is not on the legal team. But her BS was good enough for you all to believe. 😂 Uneducated sheep. Unable to see the obvious. True example of low information voters🤣 this is snowflaking on a HUGE level🤡

I won’t vote because I refuse to vote for anyone who haven’t earned my vote. I don’t vote for lesser evils. My vote have to be won. I’m so high info I refused to vote. I vote for local (at least they truly know the issues and community). But a low informed voter will follow the party line right into hell just to brag for a president that’s been brought out by many and never truly deliver on promises made. I’m so high info I accepted the 2016 election results on election night. 
 

only time will tell in a month when Biden is sworn in and all the high dollar trump lawyers fail to provide any factual proof on mass voter fraud that could switch the election in his favor. You and many like you will realize that it is you guys who are low informed voters blindly following a Orange man.🤡🤡🤡
