The Story
Rock’n the extreme folk, the song
GO OUT AND PLAY is a rallying cry for the over-worked and lorded-over
ordinary citizen, who is over-burdened by the daily worries and stresses of
early 21st century life looming over our very survival.
“Zero
Emission Musician” Rick Denzien’s zeal drives an acoustic guitar and vocal
style, like an early protest era anthem, iconic for this moment in history.
In
response to the non-stop bombardment of corporate and political propaganda
and unscrupulous agendas that have undermined human and planetary
well-being, GO OUT AND PLAY reaches out to the child within to take charge
of one’s own destiny, not beholden to the bondage of an elite establishment
that’s calling the shots on a bigger world stage.
Verses
build a musical tension with lyrics that address the drowning undertow
frustrating the spied-upon working classes under siege by a steroid-muscled
police state, validated by the mainstream media and orchestrated by a thin
veneer of the super rich and super powerful at the expense of everyone.
These dark
themes lie in sharp contrast with an infectiously catchy, lighthearted
chorus that invokes positive motivation for resisting and countering the
injustice of a corrupt system.
GO OUT AND
PLAY blends fresh acoustic rock with tasty backing vocals and a scorching
electric blues lead guitar solo. The beckoning hook serves as an
irresistible rally cry for anyone listening to sing along with for a
positive surge of forward moving energy despite nefarious forces at hand.
A song for
the times, GO OUT AND PLAY calls-out the ominous and offers an empowering
solution for sustaining positive resistance. |

Title: Go Out and Play
Words & Music by: Rick Denzien
We
don’t got corporate jobs
There ain’t no big payday
We aren’t some useless slobs
We all got bills to pay
We running in the red
No matter what they say
We eat the tainted meat
Dead got the triptafane
Chorus:
Go out and play
Resist the threat today
Go out and play
We aren’t your slaves today
Go out and play
They stream some liquid lead
We more dumb than before
They watch us in our bed
Scan us at every door
We might just take a look
They kick us to the floor
We break the chains they make
Took love and give us pain
Chorus:
Go out and play
Resist the threat today
Go out and play
We aren’t your slaves today
Go out and play
Bridge:
Rearrange the chairs on a deck of this sinking ship but
No one wants to stay
The kids got perfect teeth, but the mouth is in decay
Chorus:
Go out and play
Resist the threat today
Go out and play
We aren’t your slaves today
Go out and play

Catchy
tune! Rick Denzien writes a very pertinent song that is very “in” with the times
right now. The melody and vocals are reminiscent of Peter Gabriel. ‘Go
Out and Play’s strong hook will be playing in your head over and over.
Five thumbs up!

“’Go Out and Play’ by Rick
Denzien is a solid reminder (with a great beat) to stand firm for what is good
and decent, for what is right. For the truth. So, go out and play, world.
Resist.

‘Go Out and Play’ starts, the ambient keyboard is striking. When the

Zero
Emission Musician Quotes:
“’Go
Out and Play’ is a call to all artists to do their craft, but the deeper
meaning… have your voice heard, not be stifled and controlled by those that
would keep us down and RESIST them. It made me feel like I need to bust out, do
my thing, shed the fear of conspiracy and just live my life.”
