Liner Notes

#skirmish #misunderstanding Honestly, this started out as a song about a quarrel between lovers, but somehow politics snuck in there. And the original Bo-Diddley beat morphed into #disco #funk #protest #manwithclav

Lyrics

Misunderstanding (C. 2025 @raspberry33)

VERSE 1:
So many things I think I know
Someone, somewhere told me so
You said you wouldn’t check the facts
Don’t cause my empire to collapse
It was all – just a big – misunderstanding

VERSE 2:
True believers truly believe
What comes down their news feed
Facts depend on point-of-view
Objective lies, best we can do
And it’s all – just a big - misunderstanding

BRIDGE:
Church says the Bible proves
Gallileo – and yet it moves
Grand illusions, old wives tales
What matters are the sales

VERSE 3:
Turns out that the Rule of Thumb
Has nothing to do with branches
Things that you can’t quite explain
Are marketed in tranches

Very slick and funky!

@ayeahmur 2w

Wow. I was all in on that funking bass but then you totally spoiled me with the clavi too! Loved it.

@wondertruly 2w

Ooooh this is so fun and funky! Love me a good protest song. And I love the organ flourishes throughout, so great. The bridge is my favorite!

@frostin 2w

well written, was easy to sing along in my head. Church says the Bible proves, Galileo - and yet it moves, especially liked that one, overall good job
