For What It's Worth...

Lyrics: Buffalo Springfield

There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away
We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Buffalo Springfield:

 

Willy T will be handing out lighters to fight the man.  Fire it up !

This song brings back memories of a man I knew named Maxx.  He was a violent man, one that took his anger out on his wife's vacuum cleaner.  He loved this song.  He quoted it so much it made me want to vomit. He always thought life was unfair to him and his kin.  Like he deserved stuff just because.

Maxx old buddy, you're still a sorry POS and I hope your ass dies broke.  That's what you really deserve.

Anybody got a candle for this vigil ?   :rotf:

Except that back then there were people being drafted against a war they neither wanted or thought they should give their life for.  Now there are people that think paying back a student loan is the same thing.

I wouldn't waste one of my good smelly candles on his butt, but I got some of those little tealight suckers I could donate to the cause.  Cheap ole things.

"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840
