This version is performed with one voice & one acoustic guitar, a bold & absurdist approach to exploring life in the 21st century. Written & performed by Paul Buckberry, the track critiques the absurdity of power, governance, & existence, all while inviting listeners to reflect on the strange behaviour of shouting into the void. The title draws a satirical parallel between the vanity of world leaders (both literal & metaphorical) and the farce of governance that impacts everyday lives. "Bald men arguing over a comb" becomes a potent symbol of futile debates, hidden agendas & the cost of political games on real people. Inspired by Theatre of the Absurd, The Comb Over challenges listeners with lyric-dense commentary questioning existence, distrusting language & exposing the illogical plots of life itself. While thematically heavy, the song’s sound is upbeat and danceable — an intentional paradox to capture the absurdity of finding joy amid chaos. Video recorded in art-deco Marrickville Town Hall built in the 1930s, Paul Buckberry performs alone on stage in the grand, empty hall. This poignant visual underscores the artist's conception of "yelling into the void" & mirrors the absurdist notion of a meaningless universe. "Bald men arguing over a comb" weaves thru the verses as a refrain, delivering biting critiques of political vanity, generational blame, and societal inertia. Paul approaches folk music with a rock and roll attitude & in this instance draws inspiration from Lou Reed & The Velvet Underground. His unique style combines intellectual content with raw performance energy, designed for audiences who prefer dancing while they think. #TheCombOver #Project2025 #FolkRock #AbsurdistMusic #PaulBuckberry #PoliticalSatire #LouReedInspired #AcousticFolk
