I Know, Right? or IKR was written over a few days in September of 2011. As usual -- my lyrics are / were at least partially inspired by Above Top
Secret, and conspiracy theories in general. This time around I was listening to a lot of late 1970's new wave, as well as the vocal heuristics of
David Johansen and the NY Dolls. I always want a song to vibe and groove, and I hope this delivers in that end, as well. Anyway -- thanks for
listening and thanks for being such a great community. I enjoy reading you guys, and I get a kick out of sparring with my honorable foes, and I hope
we have a lot of years left between us to have some real good ones.

Lyrics:
IKR (Skot Pollok / Chance Derek Gregory)
I like to know just what you are
Not that I care what you're going through
I like to think that the distance between us is there
For a pretty good reason....
But what you don't understand is that "everything" is
part of the plan -- and you can
either let go -- and drop down out of the flow -- or you can
Grab on with both hands and -- start squeezing
I like to think there's a greater good than
the One that we keep in our -- pockets
I like to know that there's a reason we fight
and it doesn't really matter -- what you call it
Your secret schools are all just -- "mystery meat"
There all -- grist for the grill that I'm smokin' on
Your precious secrets don't mean nothing to me
They're just -- tender for the fires -- that I'm stokin' on
But what you don't understand
is that -- every little thing is only -- part -- of the plan
And you can either step in to a suicide booth or
you can -- grab on with both hands -- and stop teasin'
I Know, Right?
I said you know I know you know I know right
I like to know just what you are
Not that I care what you're going through
I like to think that the distance between us is
Relative to Time and Dimension
But what you don't understand is
that -- everything you dream Is also -- part of the plan
and you can -- either come clean -- and get reborn in a dream
Or take a bubble-bath and stop all yer screamin'
I Know, Right?
I said you know I know you know I know right
