| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01  | In honor of my favorite band, I present my favorite song off my favorite album. I used to like Bargain alot until Nissan soiled it. "Won't Get Fooled Again" We'll be fighting in the streets With our children at our feet And the morals that they worship will be gone And the men who spurred us on Sit in judgement of all wrong They decide and the shotgun sings the song I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again The change, it had to come We knew it all along We were liberated from the fold, that's all And the world looks just the same And history ain't changed 'Cause the banners, they are flown in the next war I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again No, no! I'll move myself and my family aside If we happen to be left half alive I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky Though I know that the hypnotized never lie Do ya? There's nothing in the streets Looks any different to me And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye And the parting on the left Are now parting on the right And the beards have all grown longer overnight I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again Don't get fooled again No, no! Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Meet the new boss Same as the old boss You Give Me Head, It Makes it Worse. Take out Your Fucking Retainer, put it in Your Purse. ---Jello Biafra | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00 | That's the best song ever written about revolution.^^^^^^^^ Here's another one from Who's Next: "Bargain" I'd gladly lose me to find you I'd gladly give up all I had To find you I'd suffer anything and be glad I'd pay any price just to get you I'd work all my life and I will To win you I'd stand naked, stoned and stabbed I'd call that a bargain The best I ever had The best I ever had I'd gladly lose me to find you I'd gladly give up all I got To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop I'd pay any price just to win you Surrender my good life for bad To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man I'd call that a bargain The best I ever had The best I ever had I sit looking 'round I look at my face in the mirror I know I'm worth nothing without you And like one and one don't make two One and one make one And I'm looking for that free ride to me I'm looking for you I'd gladly lose me to find you I'd gladly give up all I got To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop I'd pay any price just to win you Surrender my good life for bad To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man I'd call that a bargain The best I ever had The best I ever had  This message was edited by The Painter on 8-15-01 @ 7:21 AM | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Who's next is an absolutely perfect album. All songs flow perfectly. Did you ever hear of an album called "Odds & Sods"? I picked it up in a discount bin years ago. Contains some good tracks, including 2 track which were recorded in the "Who's Next" sessions for the "Life House" film which never happened - "Too Much of Anything", and "Pure And Easy" (which also appeared on Townsend's solo album" "PURE AND EASY" There once was a note, pure and easy playing so free like a breath rippling by The note is eternal, I hear it, It sees me Forever we blend and forever we die. I listened and I heard, Music in a word and words when you played your guitar. The Noise that I was hearing was a million people cheering and a child flew past me, riding in a star As People assemble, civilisation is trying to find a new way to die but killing is really, merely scene changer all men are bored with other Men's lives. I listened and I heard, etc. Gas on the hillside, Oil in the teacup watch all the chords of life lose their joy. distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness the note that began all, can also destroy. We all know success, when we all find our own dreams and our love is enough to knock down any walls and the future's been seen, as men try to realise, The simple secret of the note in us all. There once was a note, listen.  | ||||
