Thanks. Unfortunately, I don't have the lyrics to post here. The 99 refers to the percentage of wealth distribution in the USA. Only 1% of the population is considered wealthy, the other 99% would be considered middle class or poor.
I didn't mix the audio, but you're right, I don't know why the uke is inaudible for most of the song. You can hear it clearly at the beginning though. Jon actually found that ukulele in the dumpster years ago and it's been his primary instrument since then. I installed a pick-up in it and carved him a new bridge saddle out of a bamboo chopstick.
