Biography:
Matt Wixson is a huge ska fan (he used to be huger but has lost a little weight) with too much time on his hands. His solo sounds range somewhere between the manic play-everything style of Bomb The Music Industry! and the stripped-down acoustic ska of Chris Murray. In his other solo project, Babylon Party Machine, Matt plays an original combination of techno-ska.
He takes a no-bullshit approach to songwriting and wouldn't sing words unless he felt they were worthwhile. His songs can be political or personal, funny or depressing.

Take a look around the room
Would it be safe to assume
That since everybody looks like you
They think exactly as you do
Well you make sure to tell your jokes
So far away from them colored folks
Because if they heard it then they'd know
The things you say behind closed doors
E, D, E, D, Dm
Well I hate to ruin your fun
But I rat on everyone
I keep track of names and places
And tell all your black co-workers you're a racist
Ba Bada Ba Ba Bada Ba Ba ba badada badadada x2
Talk a look around the room
Would it be safe to assume
That since everybody looks like you
They fuck exactly as you do
Well all your doubts have been dismissed
Because no one here talks with a lisp
Oh yea, no one is a styleist
Or has that little floppy wrist
Well I hate to ruin your fun
But I remember everyone
And I wonder if you'd hate me
If I just stood up and made you fuckers face me
Ba Bada Ba Ba Bada Ba Ba ba badada badadada x2
C#m, F#m x3 Last lines D E
And there's nowhere to hide
Away from prying eyes
The double agents and the spies
They're lurking all around you
They're learning all about you
Take a look around the room
Would it be safe to assume
That since everybody looks like you
F#m, E, D x2 replace last D with A Dm
They're just as ignorent too
They're just as ignorant too
They're just like ignorant you
