Reflections on the breakdown of democracy, set to a swangin' stank groove.

lyrics

When you try to lock the door
Won't let in any more
This is how it ends

If we fail to heed the past
That kicked us in the ass
This is how it ends

There's no bottom to this floor
Sinking lower evermore
This is how it ends

A conspiracy of lies
Has now led to our demise
This is how it ends


Those who want to block the light
Will bring an age of night
This is how it ends

While you say that you don't care
The thieves will take your share
This is how it ends

When you're rotten to the core
Shouldn't lead us anymore


There's a race to tear it down
The future's cancelled now
This is how it ends

There's a plague across the nation
Infecting thirty-three percent
This is how it ends

There's a war out on the streets
And our time is now complete
This is how it ends
This is how it ends
This is how it ends
This is how it ends
This is how it ends

Their first album, Retro Energy (2002), staked out a unique sound, and the band was a presence in Phoenix for years, playing shows with Kool & the Gang, Al Green, & George Benson. After a 9 year break, Calumet has been reborn and is once again bringing the funk to Arizona and beyond. ... more
