doofynz Posted September 1, 2005 Report Posted September 1, 2005 Stars And Stripes Of Corruption By Dead Kennedys Finally got to Washington in the middle of the night I couldn't wait I headed straight for the Capitol Mall My heart began to pound Yahoo! It really exists The American International Pictures logo I looked up at that Capitol Building Couldn't help but wonder why I felt like saying "Hello, old friend" Walked up the hill to touch it Then I unzipped my pants And pissed on it when nobody was looking Like a great eternal Klansman With his two flashing red eyes Turn around he's always watching The Washington monument pricks the sky With flags like pubic hair ringed 'round the bottom The symbols of our heritage Lit up proudly in the night Somehow fits to see the homeless people Passed out on the lawn So this is where it happens The power games and bribes All lobbying for a piece of ass Of the stars and stripes of corruption Makes me feel so ashamed To be an American When we're too stuck up to learn from our mistakes Trying to start another Viet Nam Whilke fiddling while Rome burns at home The Boss says, "You're laid off. Blame the Japanese" "America's back," alright At the game it plays the worst Strip mining the world like a slave plantation No wonder others hate us And the Hitlers we handpick To bleed their people dry For our evil empire The drug we're fed To make us like it Is God and country with a band People we know who should know better Howl, "America riles. Let's go to war!" Business scams are what's worth dying for Are the Soviets our worst enemy? We're destroying ourselves instead Who cares about our civil rights As long as I get paid? The blind Me-Generation Doesn't care if life's a lie so easily used, so proud to enforce The stars and stripes of corruption Let's bring it all down! Tell me who's the real patriots The Archie Bunker slobs waving flags? Or the people with the guts to work For some real change Rednecks and bombs don't make us strong We loot the world, yet we can't even feed ourselves Our real test of strength is caring Not the toys of war we sell the world Just carry on, thankful to be farmed like worms Old glory for a blanket As you suck on your thumbs Real freedom scares you 'Cos it means responsibility So you chicken out and threaten me Saying, "Love it or leave it" I'll get beat up if I criticize it You say you'll fight to the death To save your worthless flag If you want a banana republic that bad Why don't you go move to one But what can just one of us do? Against all that money and power Trying to crush us into roaches? We don't destroy society in a day Until we change ourselves first From the inside out We can start by not lying so much And treating other people like dirt It's easy not to base our lives On how much we can scam And you know It feels good to lift that monkey off our backs I'm thankful I live in a place Where I can say the things I do Without being taken out and shot So I'm on guard against the goons Trying to take my rights away We've got to rise above the need for cops and laws Let kids learn communication Instead of schools pushing competition How about more art and theater instead of sports? People will always do drugs Let's legalize them Crime drops when the mob can't price them Budget's in the red? Let's tax religion No one will do it for us We'll just have to fix ourselves Honesty ain't all that hard Just put Rambo back inside your pants Causing trouble for the system is much more fun Thank you for the toilet paper But your flag is meaningless to me Look around, we're all people Who needs countries anyway? Our land, I love it too I think I love it more than you I care enough to fight The stars and stripes of corruption Let's bring it all down! If we don't try If we just lie If we can't find A way to do it better than this Who will?

Liz Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I like Tatu's version of How Soon Is Now?.
msf Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I like Tatu's version of Where Is Now?. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Do you mean How Soon Is Now by the Smiths ? I have a video of this concert, it's brilliant :
Liz Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Yeah... that's what I meant. *Edits post*. There's no excuse for typing that wrong.
msf Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I can hear Morrissey turning in his grave !
Si-Co Posted October 2, 2005 Report Posted October 2, 2005 Momus - "Ice King" [ from the album "Tender Pervert" (1988) ] If ever emotional defences open wide If ever you see me cry If ever you notice how you make me feel inside This thing will blow sky high If ever emotional defences open wide If ever you see me cry If ever you notice how you make me feel inside I think I just might die How could you know I wanted you so I acted cool so you couldn't see For here deep inside I so easily hide Exactly what you mean to me But it was so strange When everything changed Your answer took me by surprise And now that we're lovers You think you've discovered How to make a cold man cry You think you're kissing the ice king, dark thing But I was always warm I was yours for the asking, dark thing I was hot for you all along If ever emotional defences open wide If ever you see me cry If ever you notice how you make me feel inside This thing will blow sky high If ever emotional defences open wide If ever you see me cry If ever you notice how you make me feel inside I think I just might die I know you can't stand An emotional man And so I play for time Keeping it light In the hope that you might One day maybe change your mind Sometimes in bed It enters my head To tell you that my love is strong But I don't say a word When I notice how hard You work to turn a cold man on You think you're kissing the ice king, dark thing But I was always warm I was yours for the asking, dark thing I was hot for you all along You think you're kissing the ice king, dark thing How wrong can a woman be? If you knew the intensity of my feelings How long would you stay with me? You think you're kissing the i-i-i If ever emotional defences open wide If ever you see me cry If ever you notice how you make me feel inside I think I just might, I think I just might
The Cure Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 I can hear Morrissey turning in his grave ! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> turning in his grave??? Don't you meaning, "seething in his multi-million dollar LA mansion"??? When did Moz die for you msf? He is still very much alive for me. Oh, and "covering" Smiths songs should be against the law. it is a criminal offence in my mimd at least. They had all that Dylan stuff on the tv last week, so I felt we should have some of good old Bob's words of wisdom: "The times they are a-changing"-Bob Dylan Come gather 'round people Wherever you roam And admit that the waters Around you have grown And accept it that soon You'll be drenched to the bone. If your time to you Is worth savin' Then you better start swimmin' Or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changin'. Come writers and critics Who prophesize with your pen And keep your eyes wide The chance won't come again And don't speak too soon For the wheel's still in spin And there's no tellin' who That it's namin'. For the loser now Will be later to win For the times they are a-changin'. Come senators, congressmen Please heed the call Don't stand in the doorway Don't block up the hall For he that gets hurt Will be he who has stalled There's a battle outside And it is ragin'. It'll soon shake your windows And rattle your walls For the times they are a-changin'. Come mothers and fathers Throughout the land And don't criticize What you can't understand Your sons and your daughters Are beyond your command Your old road is Rapidly agin'. Please get out of the new one If you can't lend your hand For the times they are a-changin'. The line it is drawn The curse it is cast The slow one now Will later be fast As the present now Will later be past The order is Rapidly fadin'. And the first one now Will later be last For the times they are a-changin'.
