about

The lead off track from the album "Fate Rumbled", “Gather All the Fables” takes direct aim at the current battle between the press and the government and differing ideas about what is true and what is fake. “Oh today my friends we’re safer than we’ve ever been” is the hook that evokes a town crier whistling in the dark for the masses.

lyrics

You're guilty of the open mouth
Adder's in your grip
Level down the public eye
They'll wait until you slip

Gather all the fables or
Destiny will dry up
When the fire knows your house
When the doctor throws you out

Oh today my friend we are safer than we've ever been
(Gather all the fables)

Barking orders at the queens and
Poking fun with generals
Let the lawyers out the cage,
Your daughters out the kennels

Oh today my friend we are safer than we've ever been

This has been brought to you by
Ad men and cab drivers
Gun running grandmothers
Drug pushing taxpayers

Oh today my friend we are safer than we've ever been
I'm low to the ground and still looking down.
Still looking down on you
