about

Started with another fat electro bass build and turned the track into something closer to my industrial inspired history with iNsuRge. We are indeed ruled by vested interest.

lyrics

Vested Interest
 
(We’re gonna smoke ‘em out)
 
Vested interest
Invested interest
Vested interest
We’re ruled by vested interest
 
A government contract, good for keeping control
Follow the stench, until the trail gets hacked
Owners shrugging shoulders, hiding off-shore
In a tax-free black holding company stack
Shake down the directors, it’s funny how they live
A post office box inside a tax haven pantomime
A family trust, at the top of the tree
Secured by obfuscator beneficiaries
 
Vested interest
Invested interest
Vested Interest
We’re ruled by vested interest
 
It’s like a popular minister, another free ride
A brown paper bag, a little more on the side
Swings a little to the left, then a little to the right
Just keep the people happy, and their hair just right
And you can listen real carefully
And you can hear them as they try to sing
(La-la-la lee-lee!)
“Integrity, in a democracy!
Integrity will be the death of me”
 
Vested interest
Invested interest
Vested Interest
We’re ruled by vested Interest
 
It’s like a parliamentary puppet show
Invested interest
Then they’re caught red handed
And they beg forgiveness
This vested interest
 
Vested interest
(ahh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Vested interest
(ahh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Theft and corruption at its simplest
(ahh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Vested interest
(ahh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

about

Dubrow image

Dubrow Reservoir, Australia

I was the singer / songwriter with iNsuRge, Soulscraper, & Blackbreaks, and this is my solo project: Dubrow.

I like layering beats, synths, noise and distortion, with some real instruments

The music is also political, because all good music is. We either sing for the revolution, or sing for all the things to stay the same ... more
