about
"Shallow Pockets"
Targeted overtly at a certain business tycoon turned leader of the free world. Everything I need to say in this song is said in the lyrics.

lyrics
Head ablaze
Eyes of rage
Act deranged
Your sordid repertoire
Shun the freaks
Tax the weak
Exploit the meek
Inflate your pallid empire
Severed from humility
Look at how your country’s paralysed
Hands of peace are slowly cut and cauterised
Shallow, your pockets
Disgrace and deride
Head stratospheric as your hubris skyrockets
Hollow eye sockets
You churlishly chide
Call yourself pack leader
But you’ve lost control of your pride
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Your obsession with bygone days
Will only go so far
This recession, you've paved its way
And brought us all a brand new war
Tethered to hostility
Such a dark, perverted rise
You get from condemning oh so many lives
Shallow, your pockets
Disgrace and deride
Head stratospheric as your hubris skyrockets
Hollow eye sockets
You churlishly chide
Call yourself pack leader
But you’ve lost control of your pride
Standing guard without regard
In your safety bubble
Walls you fortified
With scorn and spite
Stand proud while cities crumble
The baying crowd tears it down
As they follow your example
And you just laugh
While you quaff this tragedy and trouble
You are beyond help
Ego - endless well
We are beyond hell
Ego fuck yourself
Your tyranny’s such irony
As you crush this world to dust
I think you’ll find your soul and mind
Owe everything to us
Shallow, your pockets
Disgrace and deride
Head stratospheric as your hubris skyrockets
Hollow eye sockets
You churlishly chide
Call yourself pack leader
But you’ve lost control of your pride
Eyes of rage
Act deranged
Your sordid repertoire
Shun the freaks
Tax the weak
Exploit the meek
Inflate your pallid empire
Severed from humility
Look at how your country’s paralysed
Hands of peace are slowly cut and cauterised
Shallow, your pockets
Disgrace and deride
Head stratospheric as your hubris skyrockets
Hollow eye sockets
You churlishly chide
Call yourself pack leader
But you’ve lost control of your pride
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Your obsession with bygone days
Will only go so far
This recession, you've paved its way
And brought us all a brand new war
Tethered to hostility
Such a dark, perverted rise
You get from condemning oh so many lives
Shallow, your pockets
Disgrace and deride
Head stratospheric as your hubris skyrockets
Hollow eye sockets
You churlishly chide
Call yourself pack leader
But you’ve lost control of your pride
Standing guard without regard
In your safety bubble
Walls you fortified
With scorn and spite
Stand proud while cities crumble
The baying crowd tears it down
As they follow your example
And you just laugh
While you quaff this tragedy and trouble
You are beyond help
Ego - endless well
We are beyond hell
Ego fuck yourself
Your tyranny’s such irony
As you crush this world to dust
I think you’ll find your soul and mind
Owe everything to us
Shallow, your pockets
Disgrace and deride
Head stratospheric as your hubris skyrockets
Hollow eye sockets
You churlishly chide
Call yourself pack leader
But you’ve lost control of your pride

BTSX OST Vol. 1
by Esselfortiumsupported by 10 fans who also own “Shallow Pockets [ft. Nash Muhandes]”
Absolutely sublime, an essential to any MIDI enthusiast. Vanilla compatible as well. Of course if you don't know, you should play BTSX using a source port of your choice: You can use ZDL to load up source ports and cleanly select multiple pk3s and WADs to run. The interface of ZDL is a bit clunky but, to play BTSX all you would really need to do is drag and drop the WAD to a sourceport exe to launch it. I recommend GZDoom for utility, Woof for authenticity, and DSDA if you're speedy boi.

Transmission Control is a delightful soundtrack. The songs all have a delightful vibe (that also really well matches the original game), and are great to listen to. Excellent music. Additionally, the game is also absolutely worth checking out.
