about

Ironically connotative quotations that bookend a rallying call for misfits and their chosen family to band together against fascism. The struggle for justice is heartening regardless of outcomes and our heroes, like a joyful Sisyphus, happily will their boulder uphill; defiance its own luster, ignoring the perhaps fatal hubris by ignoring a broader social coherence.

lyrics

Let’s pretend
We can save the world
Just for a little while
Let’s go on a journey
And save the day
Villains align
In castles on mountains
Plotting from far above
Save the princess
Capture the castle
Nullify evil powers and guns

Hobbits and pirates
Space captains
And princesses
Cowboys and mutants with capes
Let’s all save the day
We can live without fear
If we join as one

The dark side waits
In shadows and light
Biding time to corrupt
But we’re watching
And we are prepared
To disarm and disrupt
We sail and fly
And march and ride in
We’re coming to let love win
We’ll fight together
With powers of
Light and love

Hobbits and pirates
Space captains
And princesses
Cowboys and mutants with capes
Let’s all save the day
We can live without fear
If we fight as one

We won’t let them get away today
We won’t let them get away today
We won’t let them get away today

We’re all heroes
At least for a while
For just a moment in time
We can shine

about

Nraakors image

Nraakors Iowa City, Iowa

Nraakors is the brainchild of James Kasper, Joseph Norman, and Gigi Macabre. Their music includes aspects of grunge, prog, noise rock, thrash metal, jazz fusion, folk, neoclassical, and free improv. The result is a bit like the composers; weird, a little roughhewn, somewhat sentimental, and equal parts sardonic and sincere. ... more
