Some say the end is near Some say we'll see Armageddon soon I certainly hope we will I sure could use a vacation from this
Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of Freaks
Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA The only way to fix it is to flush it all away Any fucking time, any fucking day Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
Fret for your figure and Fret for your latte and Fret for your lawsuit and Fret for your hairpiece and Fret for your Prozac and Fret for your pilot and Fret for your contract and Fret for your car
It's a Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of Freaks
Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call L.A. The only way to fix it is to flush it all away Any fucking time, any fucking day Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
Some say a comet will fall from the sky Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits
And some say the end is near Some say we'll see Armageddon soon I certainly hope we will I sure could use a vacation from this
Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit
One great big festering neon distraction, I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied
Learn to swim, learn to swim, learn to swim
Mom's gonna fix it all soon Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be
Learn to swim
Fuck L Ron Hubbard and Fuck all his clones Fuck all those gun-toting Hip gangster wannabes
Learn to swim
Fuck retro anything Fuck your tattoos Fuck all you junkies and Fuck your short memory
Learn to swim
Fuck smiley glad-hands With hidden agendas Fuck these dysfunctional Insecure actresses
Learn to swim
'Cause I'm praying for rain And I'm praying for tidal waves I wanna see the ground give way I wanna watch it all go down Mom please flush it all away I wanna see it go right in and down I wanna watch it go right in Watch you flush it all away
Time to bring it down again Don't just call me pessimist Try and read between the lines
I can't imagine why you wouldn't Welcome any change, my friend
I wanna see it come down Burn it down Suck it down Flush it down
Kill for gain or shoot to maim But we don't need a reason The Golden Goose is on the loose And never out of season Blackened pride still burns inside This shell of bloody treason Here's my gun for a barrel of fun For the love of living death
The killer's breed or the demon's seed The glamour, the fortune, the pain Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain Don't you pray for my soul anymore
Two minutes to midnight The hands that threaten doom Two minutes to midnight To kill the unborn in the womb
The blind men shout "let the creatures out We'll show the unbelievers" The napalm screams of human flames Of a prime time Belsen feast, yeah! As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies
The killer's breed or the demon's seed The glamour, the fortune, the pain Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain Don't you pray for my soul anymore
Two minutes to midnight The hands that threaten doom Two minutes to midnight To kill the unborn in the womb
The body bags and little rags of children torn in two And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun
The killer's breed or the demon's seed The glamour, the fortune, the pain Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain don't you pray for my soul anymore
Two minutes to midnight The hands that threaten doom Two minutes to midnight To kill the unborn in the womb
Midnight Midnight Midnight It's all night Midnight Midnight Midnight It's all night Midnight, all night
I will never feed off the evergreen luster of your heart all Because we all live in the valley of the walls when we speak We can peak from the windows of their mouths to see the land The women chant as they fly up to the sun.
You never think you know why, Know, You never think you know why, Know, You never think you know why, Know, Ever think you know why, Know.
Books all say different things while people flap their yellow wings Trying to soar by being a whore of life And almost everything the sheep that ran off from the herd may be dead But now's a bird able to fly able to die able to break your cursed earth (fuck your mother's earth)
You never think you know why, Know, You never think you know why, Know, You never think you know why, Know, Ever think you know why, Know.
On the other side, on the other side, the other side, Do you ever try to fly, Do you ever try to fly? Have you ever wanted to die, you ever want to die?
Don't ever try to fly, don't ever try to fly, Don't ever try to fly, unless you leave your body on the other side, Never try to die, you ever try to die.
Know, You never think you know why, Know, You never think you know why, Know, You never think you know why, Know, Ever think you know why, Know.
Radio, an insidious form, helps shape your thoughts making you conform Programming music easy listening, help you achieve that moronic grin Playing you regurgitated pap, selling products that are mostly crap Rarely hearing music you want to hear, it has an effect over all these years
Why don't you think for yourself Live in this self made Hell
Television, the idiot tube, helps to raise our children as fools Watch the news see what they want you to see, our awareness is limited by network Moronic sitcoms and one-sided news alter your feeling give you conformist views Why can't you get that garbage out of your head, you'd better off to read a good book instead
Why don't you think for yourself Live in this self made Hell
Newspapers, what do they say, Not much I think when they want school kids to pray Getting the facts from some daily news, you hate the system but adhere to its view Blaming the dead because they can't complain, shielding officials holding them above You'd better wake up and see what's plain to see, or end up a willing part of the machine
Why don't you think for yourself Live in this self made Hell
YOU'RE NO GOOD - Linda Ronstadt
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this
Freaks
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any fucking time, any fucking day

Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your Prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car
Bullshit three ring circus sideshow of

The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any fucking time, any fucking day
Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves

And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way
I wanna watch it all go down
Mom please flush it all away
I wanna see it go right in and down
I wanna watch it go right in
Watch you flush it all away
Don't just call me pessimist
Try and read between the lines
Welcome any change, my friend
Burn it down
Suck it down
Flush it down
Very good !
Barry McGuire's "Eve Of Destruction".
EVE OF DESTRUCTION - Barry McGuire
My thanks Sir. I find the lyrics to this song just as largely relevant today as much as they were when they were written in the mid 60's.
CHAIN OF FOOLS - Aretha Franklin
But we don't need a reason
The Golden Goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore
The hands that threaten doom
Two minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb
We'll show the unbelievers"
The napalm screams of human flames
Of a prime time Belsen feast, yeah!
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore
The hands that threaten doom
Two minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
don't you pray for my soul anymore
The hands that threaten doom
Two minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb
Midnight
Midnight
It's all night
Midnight
Midnight
Midnight
It's all night
Midnight, all night
I prefer to remain positive, optimistic, and hopeful for the future
good one !

Lyrics to "KNOW"
Cursed Earth,
Cursed Earth,
Cursed Earth.
Because we all live in the valley of the walls when we speak
We can peak from the windows of their mouths to see the land
The women chant as they fly up to the sun.
Know, You never think you know why,
Know, You never think you know why,
Know, Ever think you know why,
Know.
Trying to soar by being a whore of life
And almost everything the sheep that ran off from the herd may be dead
But now's a bird able to fly able to die able to break your cursed earth
(fuck your mother's earth)
Know, You never think you know why,
Know, You never think you know why,
Know, Ever think you know why,
Know.
Do you ever try to fly, Do you ever try to fly?
Have you ever wanted to die, you ever want to die?
Don't ever try to fly, unless you leave your body on the other side,
Never try to die, you ever try to die.
Know, You never think you know why,
Know, You never think you know why,
Know, Ever think you know why,
Know.
Lyrics to "DDevil"
Among the writers of the word
Shake your spear at Shakespeare
Shake your spear at Shakespeare
Strong refrigerators
Gaining independence
Gaining independence
Smart people outsmart each other
Then themselves, then themselves
Then themselves, then themselves
Photographic relapse
People feeding frenzy
The devil is so lovely
Forewarned customary spirits
By myself, by myself
By myself, by myself
Photographic relapse
People feeding frenzy
The devil is so lovely
Photographic relapse
People feeding frenzy
The devil is so lovely
