Whistle Boeing

You can know a lot
You can know a little
But whatever you know jus don’t blow the whistle
Joshua Dean had a memory keen
He was strong and he ran every day
But his lungs turned to goo
And he had a stroke too
At 46 he was sent on his way
Whoa and Swampy Barnett loved his momma
And he took alotta pride in his work
He found 300 reasons why a plane couldn’t fly
And now he’s over his head in the dirt
You can know a lot
You can know a little
But whatever you know just don’t blow the whistle
You can toot a flute
You can play a fiddle
But whatever you do just don’t blow the whistle
Boeing’s got planes in the sky
Yea but Boeing’s got men on the ground
You mess with their shares
Buddy beware
They can make sure that you land safe and sound
They keep cutting their deals with the FAA, USA,
Fantastic lawyers of law
A little blip of the whistle cuts their bonus a little
But you can’t never see what you never did saw
You can know a lot
You can know a little
But whatever you do just don’t blow the whistle
Your life can be trash
Completely dismal
It could always be worse if ya just blow the whistle

    Both are really great in their own ways. The slower tempo is fittingly darker in tone given the weight of the subject matter, however this one becomes darkly satirical due to the upbeat tempo and the presumption of lightness being mixed with such dark lyrics. Seems like dude really can't write a bad song or make a poor cover at this point.
