The first line could prove to be interesting...
I'm a motorist that quite likes a drink when he drives, who causes the loss of innocent lives. I'm the guy with a pistol who kills your best friend. You can't really blame me 'cause I'm round the bend. Hello, how are you? I'm jerk of all jerks. I'm here to undo all your charitable works and I do it quite simply by making mistakes and one little boo-boo is all that it takes and you're at the mercy of jerk of all jerks. I'm the man that disposes of nuclear waste. There's no need to worry it's perfectly safe. In fact there is now every reason to hope that if anything happens I'll easily cope. Hello, how are you? I'm jerk of all jerks … I'm the leader who says as he wages his war that the children are not ones that he's aiming for. Hello, How are you? I'm jerk of all jerks …<br>

Damn good points. He's right----it's a direct, meaningful lyric. Well, it should be a punk/uptempo/rocker driving 8th's, open 5ths', some blues riffing. It's a very good first verse for what could be a three verse alternative metal. OK, why can't metal be positvely directed? IS that so wrong? Does it HAVE to be anarchistic? Perhaps too "messagy" for some...... I say so what; he should just do it.Write it, sing it. Jerks make us all mad; stupid people whose selfishness brings trouble and danger to others and themselves. They need some anarchistic/angry/hi-energy/finger-pointing preaching in their direction. www.musicsites.com/sites/Metal/Alternative_Metal/Loud, driving, fast, bone chilling blood curdling alternative metal. Some of the bands listed there present rage, judgement, and the wrath of the righteous in a way no other music can. I think it's the kind of music that even God plays on His giant CD player in Glory, when there's simply no other music around that sets the right mood. Indignation. Sometimes the very best thing to tap into. [As long as you keep it under wisdom's control...........]

....some may accuse me of that.......(I know you were being facetious....good!) But, without getting "religious", and I shall not here, worry not, but just to say, it seems to me, that whoever "God" is and whatever He does, well, He can listen to anything He so chooses whether some of His more "goody-two-shoes" children think well of it or not..... All right, gang, now, I am stepping AWAY from the sanctuary, just stepping back from the altar........ Given a choice between "speed metal", or Tammy Faye Bakker..................betcha' the Celestial Ear Plugs go in for the latter...... Here's a vocal trio for you: Tammy Faye, Roseanne Barr, and Yoko. Ah-Yee!! Run the studio microphone compressors at 90%! Even Pro-Tools couldn't handle all the clean-up.......... Gosh, I'm mean. Here, y'all, it's MAH turn. I''M gonna sing one: (clears throat, burps, makes a harsh grinding noise in the throat, and takes off "singing" "Come to me, my Mellon-collie, Bay---ay-ay-beee, Hey, where'd everybody go? Hey! HEEEYYY!! Why'd y'all all sign off? Heelooo in therererererereeeeeeeeee"............
