Guest guest Posted March 30, 2002 Report Share Posted March 30, 2002 The only thing that is stopping me from saying that the name of this list implies that it is no different topologically from a fascist Uk based internet pressure group is that.... I KNOW that what veganism is about, and therefore its justified. So I'll try not to say anything like that in future. Anyone object? " life's a long song " (Jethro Tull) " live like an angel die like a devil " (Propaghandi quotes this quote, I don't know who it is by) " I love my computer " (Bad Religion) " They gave me electricity They gave me running water They gave me a society They gave me tarmac streets They called it security When they introduced their framework But they took away my right to walk with bare feet. There's only one price To get plugged into their network You have to sell your soul And you have to watch Tv You have to swallow the adverts The lies and propaganda And of course you're never allowed to walk with bare feet I once met a hairdresser Who told me his secret He said: 'you can always judge a man by his shoes' 'Its your day of judgement' Said the brigadier of the town 'My citizens will be safer with you locked up in my cell'. And I'll tell YOU what to do....' .... 'Now listen up!!!!' .... 'Because you are human It goes by definition You have to cover your feet To protect you from the dirt Looks like we'll have to show you How to be a member of civilisation I swear you'd look much better In a tie and in a shirt. I've heard of people like you I've read it in the tabloids You kill babies and worship Satan I've got to keep you off the streets But of course I will forgive you Because I do it too There's more than meets the eye To a bobby on the beat Look at all the other animals Who don't wear shoes We torture them in a factory Then serve them up as meat Let this lesson be learned And never be forgot The crime that is to be walking without shoes upon your feet' Without shoes upon your feet? 'Without shoes upon your feet!!' " (I wrote this song a while back about a friend of mine who was going to meet me at a train station in Brighton. I missed the train, and he got arrested (I think he only had to stay in their local cell for one night, and that was it) for loitering and climbing over walls (he must have used an alternative approach to getting to the station), he was wearing no shoes and looking like a tramp. If you want an audio copy of the song, I can try and download it onto my computer and send it to you, just email me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
