Moon Walker - Give the People What They Want

To Rate
Intro
Give the people what you know they really want

Verse 1
Give the people what they want
Never what they ask for
Never what they need
They don’t really want to need no more
Give them what they want
Give them beating hearts and sweating palms
Give them right and give them wrong
Give them hope and give them closure
Give them answers no one knows
They won’t catch on

Give the people what you know they really want

Verse 2
Give the people a distraction
Give them entertainment
Give them all the tools they need to build a better life and tell them they don’t want it
We don’t want it
We want children we can’t care for
Houses we can’t pay for
Jobs we can’t stay awake for
Schools that we can’t raise for
Laws we can’t account for
Who could want more?
Bridge
Give us what we want
A moment in the sun
Until the light don’t come
And it don’t come back up
We can’t make this right
But we’ve still got tonight
Give the people what they want

Give the people what you know they really want

Verse 3
Give the people violence
Give the people peace
Give the people silence
Let the people speak
Give them new prescriptions
So they don’t have to think
Give them television
So they don’t wanna blink

Give them new perspectives
Give them old traditions
Give them all the answers
So they don’t have to listen
Outro
Give the people what you know they really want
A motherfucking show

Moon Walker

Using a string of eclectic, yet similarly electrifying singles as their fuel, Moon Walker crashed onto the earth like a space age rocket. The duo’s undeniable energy and inimitable musical chemistry is the result of over half a decade of playing shows and self-releasing music together.

Taking cues from such legends as Bowie, Talking Heads and Led Zeppelin, singer/guitarist Harry Springer and drummer Sean McCarthy have created a fusion of explosive drum grooves and thrashing guitar riffs that is all their own. While listeners might hear traces of glam rock, post punk, or even kraut rock echoing through debut record (coming soon), one would be left scratching their head for weeks if they sought to limit Moon Walker’s vast soundscape to one genre. With bold, timely lyrics that confront such issues as economic inequality, media sensationalism and social responsibility, Moon Walker has made it clear that they will never shy away from shouting what they believe in. So, listen up, because Moon Walker has a lot to say and they aren’t going anywhere.
