See You In Hell

from Chance by Chris Szkup

about

During the writing of so many songs during 2020 I would find myself noodling between guitar takes while recording any given song, and once in a while I would really like the riff or lick, and record it at the end of the project for future use that I would revisit later. This proved to be a very successful way of doing things and created several new songs, this being one of them. I had the main riff from another session, and realised that I had never done a blues type of song, so that's what I went for with the riff.

The lyrics are a mixture of poking fun and looking at things seriously.

lyrics

If you're a guitar player
Then you should play guitar
If someone tells you you shouldn't
You should send them far
Cause their motives don't matter
That's who you are

And if you listen to them
There's one place for you to be
Arguing on the internet
About conspiracies
One thing I ask is that
You keep away from me

Executives still irrelevant
Frontline are kings
Remember how quickly things can change
Why not do the right thing?

Executives still irrelevant
Frontline are kings
Remember how quickly things can change
Why not do the right thing?
Seems everyone's on some crusade
Or off having a whinge
None of which is gonna help us cause
Society is unhinged

If you are sent by the universe, opportunity
There ain't no time for a second thought
Take a chance and see
No one progressed while snoozing
As nice as that can be

If you're a story teller
You got a yarn to tell
If you're a bartender
Pour that cold one well
If you're a real estate agent
They're waiting for you in hell

See you in hell
