"Setback" by King Saison, lyrics and music written by Jeff King. Single released August 13th, 2021.


After wrapping my truck around a telephone pole in a nearly fatal drunk driving accident, I was sentenced to two weeks at a DUI facility in Tewksbury, MA. During that break in my life, I wrote several songs and poems in what I now call my “DUI camp” notebook.
Since that time my life has changed a lot, and now these ideas have turned into ambitious full songs that we are recording at Signature Sounds recording studio.

This song titled, SETBACK, is all about redemption and perseverance; and it’s about getting back up after getting hit hard. The term “Setback” is also a reference to the card game, Pitch, which I learned very well during my two weeks in Tewksbury.
Noelle Saison’s bass playing on this track has taken the song to another level and really drives the tune. Those are her talented fingers on the six string bass starting the song, and she takes a great solo before the last verse.
Thanks for taking the time to check out our music! This is our first release of what will be a variety of many more, coming out regularly about once a month.
~Jeff & Noelle

lyrics

Dancing is Honest.
Dreaming Deceives.
Preaching is Vain.
Laughter Relieves.

Just because the cookie crumbles, it don't change the way the cookie tastes.
Sometimes squeaky wheels get greasy, sometimes Squeaky get replaced.

just a little setback, make a new plan of attack
head em' off at the pass and put my train on track
sharpen up my knife and lay down my gun
every day another notch and I sleep well when I'm done

Comedy is Truth
Magic is Lies
Love is Pain
Music Revives

just another setback, never gonna fade to black
draw the Ace, Queen, King, 10, 2 and a Jack
gonna move ahead by stepping back
addition by subtraction is the new kind of math

Science is Solid
Visionaries are Vague
Art is Amazing
Histories Change

just a minor setback, and I ain't sweatin' the smack
finding ways of making up for everything I lack
like my Forman, George; knockin' out the fat
when they smack me down, I snap right on back
