about

The migrant crisis inspired this song, which is also a comment on varying notions of plurality, tolerance, and survival across the broad spectrum that is America, and certainly the world.

lyrics

PLURINATION
Welcome to this great nation, where it's unlawful to discriminate against race gender sexual orientation religion physical disposition the guns you keep the life in your eyes hair bones the shape of your mouth and nose and the color of your skin and prose. Show no hate or do no crime. Take no life.

A wild chase across the haze, we chase the same dream. It's a phase, erase the cash cow, give it all your steam. And then take what, and then take what? But do it now for God's sake. Take it, take it, make the next drive, next flight, take the next turn, and find your fame, go a long way, walk a long way.

Crisis brings, the hungry travelers, turning crisis into art; the hungry travelers who say "'Til Death Do Us Part."

Take it up, keep it up, bring your pills and floss. Take it up, keep it up, pay our bills and costs. Let us in, let us work, let us pay our boss. Take it up, keep it up, bring your pills and floss. Let us in, let us work, let us pay our bills and costs. Take it up, keep it up,​ bring your bills and floss.
