Amon Düül II, "You're not alone"
You sit in your room, and you talk to the wall
You're feeling small but still have a ball
And you can't explain what's anyway in vain
And you paint your face and dress in black
Wear your shades and still can't express
The way you feel about a lousy fill
And you dance until the morning
All by yourself
And somehow you know
You're not alone
And you dance until the morning
All by yourself
And somehow you know
You're not alone
You're playing pool against yourself
And you look at your watch
At a quarter to twelve
And you still didn't win against yourself
You think it's time to quit the game
Maybe change your name and search for fame
And you still have a ball and you don't care after all
And they catch you hiding in a love affair
And you know again
You're not alone
And they catch you hiding in a love affair
And you know again
You're not alone
God ain't jive and I can feel his love
Run through the strings of my guitar
Just watch out and see what it's all about
And still I stand my foot in my hand
Talking to my wall and still don't care at all
Just having a ball
And heavy after all
I've borrowed your time I'm sorry I called
Forget what I've said
But remember
You're not alone
I've borrowed your time I'm sorry I called
Forget what I've said
But remember
You're not alone

ReplyDeleteIt's the "peace" part that makes it so ironic.
ReplyDeleteNo, not really because we've known that for long time: see the Begin/Arafat NPP.
ReplyDeleteThe violence inherent in "the system" does like to clap itself on its' back.
ReplyDeleteOur violence is always more moral than theirs.
ReplyDeleteHad Trump nuked the DPNK, patriots would have lauded it as moral and 'the right thing to do'.
...at least from the Neocon wing.
ReplyDeleteThe Rand Paul wing adheres to the Federalist Papers.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the Neocon wing.
ReplyDeleteGubmints have a way of mollifying the general public for the prospect of the next shooting war. See selling the Iraq war in the US and UK.
