Lyrics

I’ve been sellin’ my soul, workin’ all day
Overtime hours for bullshit pay
So I can sit out here and waste my life away
Drag back home and drown my troubles away
It’s a damn shame what the world’s gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin’ in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
And they don’t think you know, but I know that you do
‘Cause your dollar ain’t shit and it’s taxed to no end
‘Cause of rich men north of Richmond
I wish politicians would look out for miners
And not just minors on an island somewhere
Lord, we got folks in the street, ain’t got nothin’ to eat
And the obese milkin’ welfare
Well, God, if you’re 5-foot-3 and you’re 300 pounds
Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds
Young men are puttin’ themselves six feet in the ground
‘Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin’ them down
Lord, it’s a damn shame what the world’s gotten to
For people like me and people like you
Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
But it is, oh, it is
Livin’ in the new world
With an old soul
These rich men north of Richmond
Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
Wanna know what you think, wanna know what yo

I’ve been sellin’ my soul, workin’ all day
Overtime hours for bullshit pay

WORDS TO WIN BY:THE SOGANS, LOGOS, AND DESIGNS OF AMERICANS PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS

From “All the Way with LBJ” to red MAGA hats, famous and infamous slogans, logos, signage, and accessories from over a century of presidential elections are complied in WORDS TO WIN BY:THE SLOGANS, LOGOS, AND DESIGNS OF AMERICA’S PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS (Apollo Publishers – November 3, 2020), a striking visual encyclopedia.

Presidential campaigns, emerge in state fairs, stump speeches, and selfie lines, but when the crowds disperse and after ballots are cast, movements, live on in poster, logos, slogans, and accessories. From Hillary pins to Warren harding’s “Return to Normalcy” banners, from buttons emblazoned with Dwight Eisenhower’s trademark “I like Ike” to Shepard Fairey’s iconic “Hope” poster for Barack Obama’s historic 2008 run, and promotions for the 2020 presidential candidates, campaign materials serve as portals into the complex nature of American politics and values.

In this expertly designed, highly gifted-able book, complete with informative captions and punch, full-color image, readers will learn what different fonts, colors, graphic, and wordplays signify, and how design decisions and wordage communicate key messages to the masses. In the fast-moving age of Twitter and Facebook, this tangible display of effective – and regrettable – American artifacts is destined to design political junkies of all stripes.
