about
“Government Shutdown" began conception a year ago to this month on a cold, rainy evening while passing through Chicago's Treehouse Studios. Disenchantment, exhaustion, and numbness permeated. Our goal was to implement a lyrical structure where LESS is MORE (deviating from anything else we’d done in the past). Wordplay Economy — instead presenting a chant that could be sung anywhere, anytime, and collectively to represent unison in the frustration experienced by our current state of affairs. How can anger be used to uphold the government's inability to serve the individuals that put them in power?
lyrics
Shutdown!
Government shutdown,
Government shutdown,
Why you gotta shut down on me?
Shutdown on me?
Shutdown!
Government shutdown,
Government shutdown,
Why you gotta shut down on me?
Shut down on me?
Shut down on me?
Shutdown!
Government shutdown,
Government shutdown,
Why you gotta shut down on me?!
