THE SOVEREIGN TATTOO CO.

OUR STORY SO FAR…

“There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange mixed affair we call life when a man takes this whole universe for avast practical joke, though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns, and more than suspects that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own. However, nothing dispirits, and nothing seems worth while disputing. He bolts down all events, all creeds, and beliefs, and persuasions, all hard things visible and invisible, never mind how knobby; as an ostrich of potent digestion gobbles down bullets and gun flints. And as for small difficulties and worryings, prospects of sudden disaster, peril of life and limb; all these, and death itself, seem to him only sly, good-natured hits, and jolly punches in the side bestowed by the unseen and unaccountable old joker. That odd sort of wayward mood I am am speaking of, comes over a man only in some time of extreme tribulation; it comes in the very midst of his earnestness, so that what just before might have seemed to him a thing most momentous, now seems but a part of the general joke.”
Herman Melville, Moby Dick

WHAT WE DO…

… Ain't seen a night

Things work out right, go by

Things on my mind, and I

I just don't have the time

And it, it don't seem right

… Ain't seen a day, that I don't hear people say

They know they're gonna' die

This may seem a little bit crazy

But I don't think you should be so lazy

If you think you've heard this before

Well, stick around I'm gonna' tell you more

… One just like the other

Sin's a good man's brother, but is that right?

You tell me that I don't

Then I say I won't, but then I might

You said this is the way it's supposed to be

But it just don't seem right to me, and that's outta' sight

… Some folks need an education

Don't give up, or we'll loose the nation

You say we need a revolution?

It seems to be the only solution
