Even Less
A body is washed up on a Norfolk beach
He was a friend that I could not reach
He thought I was cold but I understand
But for the grace of God goes another man
And I may just waste away from doing nothing
But I'm a martyr to even less
A choir boy is buried on the moors
Where we used to go dreaming when we were bored
Some kids are best left to fend for themselves
And others were born to stack shelves
And I may just waste away from doing nothing
But I'm a martyr to even less
Fuck you and your book (& your internet chitchat...) too You can have it back
When I'm gone these songs will Will be my tracks
And I had a stupid dream that I could change things
But I'm a martyr to even less
I hate the ground that I have walked upon
Nothing I've done has ever mattered long
(Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream, March 1999)
TRIVIA/QUIZ for Porcupine Tree to some smart asses: Do you know WHAT Porcupine Tree MEANS? And if you don't know the answer please ask me for some advice because I DO !!! hehehehehehe......
Way Of The World
You are born into this world
Looking down the barrel of a gun
And those who hold the gun
Want you to work fast and die young
And if you don't work
If you don't obey
They'll make you live in fear till your dying day
Those who govern hold the gun to your head
With religions, corporations, proud of blood
They've shed
CHORUS:
Whether it's God or the bomb
It's just the same
It's only fear under another name
(x2)
And the corporate snakes coming in to feed
On that pathetic fact known as human greed
Skin and bone being raked over those hot coals
This dump never seems to give time for human soul
And all those things that we have learnt
No time for questions, you'll just get burnt
You'll just get burnt
(CHORUS x2)
And those words crush you flat
Like your skull's under a brick
And the fear's so damnned strong
That it makes you sick
And you can see right through those eyes
That make you fear, that make you lie
And you're taught to hold high
Yet you wonder why
Dumb values forced upon you by the
Living lie
Whether it's God or the bomb
It's just the same
It's only fear under another name
(CHORUS x5 to fade)
(Max Q - Max Q, 1989)
TRIVIA for Max Q: "Max Q was a short-lived Australian rock band, active in the late 1980s, essentially a vanity recording project for INXS frontman Michael Hutchence. It consisted of Hutchence (vocals) and Ollie Olsen (production), accompanied by key members of the Melbourne post-punk scene, most of whom had previously collaborated with Olsen. ...The name "Max Q" is an aerospace term. It refers to the point at which the dynamic pressure (Q) on a launch vehicle is greatest. Another band called Max Q consists of astronauts assigned to the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. The Hutchence/Olsen band was named after Ollie Olsen's dog, Max..."
And a small dedicated song to you...
( AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! AREN'T YA? )
Talk Box
Last night i had a dream
It scared the shit out of me
'cause you were dying
Yeah you were dying
And everyone was around
And you were on the ground
And everyone was around
Dying, you were dying
Last night i had a dream
It scared the shit out of me
'cause you were dying
Yeah you were dying
And you were all alone you were all alone
You were by a phone
But you were all alone
Dying, you were dying
Last night i had a dream
It scared the shit out of me
'cause you were dying
Yeah you were dying
And your friends were there
And all your friends were there
In your underwear
And all your friends were there
And you were dying
Dying, you were dying
(L7 - Hungry for Stink, 1994-07-12)
TRIVIA for L7: "The band gained a certain amount of notoriety for their performance at the 1992 Reading Festival, when Donita Sparks removed her used tampon off-stage and threw it into the crowd yelling "Eat my used tampon, fuckers!" in protest against the mud being thrown by the crowd. In the UK, the band are most famous for an appearance on the popular late-night entertainment programme The Word, in which Sparks pulled her pants down to reveal her vagina. During a live show in London in 2000, the band offered a one night stand with Dee Plakas as a raffle prize; the winner claimed his prize of sex with her on the tour bus. L7 was also banned from the Christian Coalition..."

· "It is better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool, than to speak up and remove all doubt..."
Samuel Clemens aka Mark Twain
...as a special advice for all you, religious narrow 'minded'/'oriented'(literally) fucked-up freaks, to memorize (...if you have such ability anymore...) !!!
"Many of us saw religion as harmless nonsense. Beliefs might lack all supporting evidence but, we thought, if people needed a crutch for consolation, where's the harm? September 11th changed all that. Revealed faith is not harmless nonsense, it can be lethally dangerous nonsense. Dangerous because it gives people unshakeable confidence in their own righteousness. Dangerous because it gives them false courage to kill themselves, which automatically removes normal barriers to killing others. Dangerous because it teaches enmity to others labelled only by a difference of inherited tradition. And dangerous because we have all bought into a weird respect, which uniquely protects religion from normal criticism. Let's now stop being so damned respectful!..."
Richard Dawkins
