[Redress]

(now is the only thing that's real)

binge, cringe, cringe, binge, sloppy
binge, cringe,
(the priests used to watch over the people,
now they're watching the people)
sloppy, mincing, eye dropping, biopsy.
cyclops overlooks optic options.
rotten, showstopper, skin popper.
babbler dabbler.
self confessed criminal.
tore pen in vain.
instant, still spellbound.
game stock, talk back rock.
reencounter incident.
subsistence is inexistent.
(now is the only thing that's real)
non committed, unwitted, oblivious.
habitual resistor.
roughed up edge, fluent nudge, pre-collect ignition.
motivation inexistent.

wasted views,
that’s all they see blue,
hot blood, guilt, optic nerve.
with the right attitude you will succeed, blue.
self abusive recluse, too late for me.
make shifting peace unsettling.
crazy...doing crazy things.
keep your eyes open, soft spoken changes nothing.
a view so cruel.
(a few)

dogs body comatose, torchlight roast.
disinterest. disinfect.
retold, impressed by possession.
insiders know, refresh, detained contest.
all that is pure, sure tonight, freeze in time.
shadows climb, distracting override.
instincts evolve, over and over.
why cant you see this?

(do you, don't you want me to make you?
coming down fast but don't let me brake you.
only tell me tell me the answer.
you may be a lover but you aint no dancer)

wasted truth.
why call it all, blue?
hot lines.
eventual decline.
with the right attitude you will succeed, blue.
resent that discontent.
sidestep.
define the state of things so far.
crazy things, soft spoken..override.
with your eyes open, you know soft spoken changes nothing.
a view so cruel.
nothing.

view so cruel
view so cruel
you so cruel
view so cruel
a view so cruel
a view so cruel
(..so cruel)

try and take over, over the fringe.
sloppy, eyesore, rotten, showstopper, skin popper.
a babbler and dabbler.
oh, change, change!
nothing.
nothing, so, no, nothing.
go, down.
go.

(now is the only thing that’s real)

Huh!
Yeah, we're comin' back then with another bombtrack
Think ya know what it's all about
Huh!
Hey yo, so check this out
Yeah!
Know your enemy!
Come on!

Born with insight and a raised fist
A witness to the slit wrist, that's with
As we move into '92
Still in a room without a view
Ya got to know
Ya got to know
That when I say go, go, go
Amp up and amplify
Defy
I'm a brother with a furious mind
Action must be taken
We don't need the key
We'll break in

Something must be done
About vengeance, a badge and a gun
'Cause I'll rip the mike, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against 'em

Fist in ya face, in the place
And I'll drop the style clearly
Know your enemy...Know your enemy!
Yeah!

Hey yo, and dick with this...uggh!
Word is born
Fight the war, **** the norm
Now I got no patience
So sick of complacence
With the D the E the F the I the A the N the C the E
Mind of a revolutionary
So clear the lane
The finger to the land of the chains
What? The land of the free?
Whoever told you that is your enemy?

Now something must be done
About vengeance, a badge and a gun
'Cause I'll rip the mike, rip the stage, rip the system
I was born to rage against 'em

Now action must be taken
We don't need the key
We'll break in

I've got no patience now
So sick of complacence now
I've got no patience now
So sick of complacence now
Sick of sick of sick of sick of you
Time has come to pay...
Know your enemy!

Come on!
Yes I know my enemies
They're the teachers who taught me to fight me
Compromise, conformity, assimilation, submission
Ignorance, hypocrisy, brutality, the elite
All of which are American dreams (8 times)
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams
All of which are American dreams

 

[Redress]

I am Governor Jerry Brown
My aura smiles
And never frowns
Soon I will be president...

Carter Power will soon go away
I will be Fuhrer one day
I will command all of you
Your kids will meditate in school
Your kids will meditate in school!

[Chorus:]
California Uber Alles
California Uber Alles
Uber Alles California
Uber Alles California

Zen fascists will control you
100% natural
You will jog for the master race
And always wear the happy face

Close your eyes, can't happen here
Big Bro' on white horse is near
The hippies won't come back you say
Mellow out or you will pay
Mellow out or you will pay!

[Chorus]

Now it is 1984
Knock-knock at your front door
It's the suede/denim secret police
They have come for your uncool niece

Come quietly to the camp
You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp
Don't you worry, it's only a shower
For your clothes here's a pretty flower.

DIE on organic poison gas
Serpent's egg's already hatched
You will croak, you little clown
When you mess with President Brown
When you mess with President Brown

 

[Redress]

Your unflappable conceptions
Moralistic views
Never open to criticism
Your overpowering ruse

Promise of sanctuary
In eternal bliss
With starry eyes and cash in hand
Pledge all to the master plan

Just face the truth or fund the farce

At one with your god
Your sole untent
Your treasured place assured
For a substantial rent

Global lunacy
Death threats for supposed blasphemy
No room for free thought
All non believers pushed to the floor

Aggressive tyrants
Supposed saints for the cause
Judgement through force
Faith a fuel for pointless wars

When all is done
Who shall benefit? Who is the one?
Not those who pass on
But those dictators divine waving their deceitfull wands

No lyrics needed.

[LaughAtTheWorld]

Saw this through an English friend.
Dunno why (I usually don't like modern music), but I like it:


It's the only Western political song that I know of. I know a few Korean ones, but for obvious reasons, won't post them here

 

[Thorgasm]

 

[Redress]

PSK, you can post Korean songs...preferably ones with hot Korean women in them.



This ****ing country's lost it's grip
Sub-conscious hold begins to slip
The scales of justice begin to tip

The legal system has no spine
It's corroding from inside
Slap your hand and you'll do no time

Reality on vacation
All across a blinded nation
Mentally under sedation

Anyone can be set free
On a technicality
Explain the law again to me

Here in 1994
Things are different than before
Violence is what we adore

Invitation to the game
Guns and blades and media fame
Every day more of the same

Murder, mayhem, anarchy
Now are all done legally
Mastermind your killing spree

Unafraid of punishment
With a passive government
There's nothing for you to regret

Nothing to regret

Unimposing policy
No enforcing ministry
Gaping with judicial flaws
Watch a fading nation crawl

Clashing with the public's frame
I'm the one that's place in fame
Legislature sets the stage
Social slaves caught in my rage
Administrative anarchy there's nothing
You can do to me
The world around you is drifting to a
Continental tomb you see
Violence is my passion
I will never be contained
Living with aggression and it's
Everlasting reign

 

[Thorgasm]

 

[Redress]

OK, last one for awhile, at least till I can think of some more.



Trials administer tidal oil that suffocating
Base the fire gold pouring mercury life
Given river deformed in amongst patient
Building raise an urgent call reformation
Strike the picking miners claw kick my ass
Waste the given gift the natural cure
In the age of reason gone bad morning in
Between the cold stone ashes fall upon the
Wretched chosen ones 100 megatons evaporate
Those chosen vaporize case in point and
Deserving it vaccinate all stranger than whispering
Crushed velvet corpse grind awaiting
Underneath mask unneeded decisions come
From one side of the brain insolent dented
Fibres optic looks the world of growth
Fleeting image ghost destruction t.v.screen

 

[VanceMack]

We dont have enough anti-war anthems when there are dems as president. Thats a shame.

One of the best songs that has been TOTALLY misused by politicians is Springsteins "Born In the USA". Ironic. "Little Pink Houses" by Mellencamp. Social commentary songs tend to be more powerful and relevant in my book than anti-political songs.

Oh...and a nod to Bill Clinton...Freddie Mercury and Queen's "Fat Bottom Girls"

 

[Thorgasm]

 

[VanceMack]

Lennon and the Beatles "Revolution", though again...often misunderstood. Sometimes people hear what they want to hear.

[Josie]

My statures are falling
Like feathers of snow
Their voices are calling
In a whispering world
Waiting for the morning glow

Heaven is calling
From rainy shores
Counting wounded lights falling
Into their dreams
Still searching for an open door

In morning dew
A glorious scene came through
Like war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Pure moments of thought
In the meaning of love
This war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

An arrow of freedom
Is piercing my heart
Breaking chains of emotion
Give a moment to pray
Lost innocence to find its way

Fields of sensation
A cry in the dark
Hope is on the horizon
With a reason to stay
And living for a brand new day

In morning dew
A glorious scene came through
Like war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Pure moments of thought
In the meaning of love
This war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

(Arabic singing by Kathem Al Saher)
Salaam Allah 3ala alduniya w 3al ensan [The peace of God on the world and on man]
Ah ah ah mata na7ya bi7ub wa aman? [Ah ah ah when shall we live with love and security?]
Salaam Allah [The peace of God]
Salaam Allah [The peace of God]
Salaam Allah 3ala alduniya w 3al ensan [The peace of God on the world and on man]

In morning dew
A glorious scene came through
Like war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again

Pure moments of thought
In the meaning of love
This war is over now
I feel I'm coming home again
To you

 

[marduc]

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds, oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that all to the poor
Yeah!

Time will tell them they are power blind
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'til their judgement day comes
Yeah!

Now in darkness, world stops turning
Ashes where the bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercies for their sins
Satan laughing, spreads his wings
OH LORD YEAH!

How about some old school politics?

Whitey On the Moon v1 - YouTube

Edit: Would somebody tell me how to embed videos here?

YES!!! Gil Scott-Heron! (RIP) Love that man, the great grandfather of hip hop, excellent choice!

Have you heard "We Almost Lost Detroit"?



Amazing song, amazing subject matter.

Btw, embed a video by clicking the little film icon (the third from the right) at the top of your reply box. Plug in the URL and it will embed automatically. Only certain websites are allowed to embed from, mostly YouTube, but that else do you really need?

One of my favorite DK songs.

The crowded future stings my eyes
I still find time to exercise
In a uniform with two white stripes

Unlock my section of the sand
It's fenced off to the waters edge
I clamp a gasmask on my head
On my beach at night
Bathe in my moonlight

Another tanker's hit the rocks
Abandoned to spill out its guts
The sand is laced with sticky glops

O' Shimmering moonlight sheen upon
The waves and water clogged with oil
White gases steam up from the soil
On my beach at night
Bathe in my moonlight

I squish dead fish between my toes
Try not to step on any bones
I turn around and I go home

I slip back through my basement door
Switch off all that I own below
Dive in my scalding wooden tub
My own beach at night
bathe in my moonlight

There will always be a moon over Marin.

 

[Josie]

This was bumper music on some talk radio show. I had to share.... very catchy...
