Steamroller Man

Soundtrack: "Cross cut Nightmare" by John Deley

This video is based on an original poem I wrote.

Here is the original poem:

Steamroller Man

Hey, Mr. Steamroller Man
Do you remember when
'happy' was part of the plan?
You will forgive me
for sounding so forlorn
Please help me 
to forget for a minute
Our swipe-card stereotypes
When we pretend
our prejudices are safe and warm
Do you still hear birds
chirping in the spring?
I do
Do you still love
to hear children sing
I do
Do you still enjoy
hearing children laugh
while they play?
I do
Somebody told me
once upon a time
Jack heard Nat sing on the radio
about Route 66
So he decided
to travel along that road
just for kicks
I see people journey
through their lives
Like 'B movie' actors
playing out on a
3 D screen
And every day
is the final closing scene?
Hey, Mr. Steamroller Man
You know
The future is worth saving
That smile is very pleasing
