DREW HACKNEY

Hey folks! It’s Bandcamp Friday, meaning Bandcamp doesn’t take its usual cut today. Here’s a tune off The Missive from 2019 and it rings even truer today than it did when I wrote it 8 years ago.

Any purchase you make of my Music will be GREATLY appreciated, today or any day!

A Bull in His Very Own China Shop, by Drew Hackney from the album The Missive

This song means more now than ever.

A BULL IN HIS VERY OWN CHINA SHOP
----------------------------------------
Ready to run
Fire the gun
Wave the flag, do whatever
Not gonna win
Do it again
Make it a sin to blow the whistle

It’s not a war you want,
you want destruction from within
