Wenn ich meinen Hund beleidigen will nenne ich ihn Mensch. (AS) „Weißt du, was ich manchmal denke? Es müsste immer Musik da sein. Bei allem was du machst. Und wenn's so richtig Scheiße ist, dann ist wenigstens noch die Musik da. Und an der Stelle, wo es am allerschönsten ist, da müsste die Platte springen und du hörst immer nur diesen einen Moment.“ +27233

"Kunst ist schön, macht aber viel Arbeit" (K. Valentin)Noch mal:
I pity the country
I pity the state
And the mind of a man
Who thrives on hate.Small are the lives
Of cheats and of liars
Of Bigoted newspress
Fascist town criersDeception annoys me
Deception destroys me
The Bill of rights throws me
Jails they all know meFrustrated are churchmen
The saving-of-soul men
The Tinker the tailor
The Colonial governorThey pull and they paw me
They’re seeking to draw me
Away from the roundness
of the lifeInstrumental Break:
Silly Civil Servants
They thrive off my body
Their trip is with power
Back bacon and welfarePolice they arrest me
Materialists detest me
Pollution it chokes me
Movies they joke mePoliticians exploit me
City life it jades me
Hudson’s Bay fleeces me
Hunting laws freak meGovernment is bumbling
Revolution is rumbling
To be ruled in impunity
Is tradition continuityI pity the country
I pity the state
And the mind of a man
Who thrives on hate--
Contre la guerre ...and everybody’s shouting “Which Side Are You On?”Ein deutsches (amerikanisches) Requiem – Johannes Brahms

Hey, Baby I just got back from town
Where the bribes are paid
Honey, they turned my offer down
They say the deal’s already made
So now I gotta stand and watch
While it all comes down
And the buzzards and the hawks
And the judges and the mob
Circle round
Now if I were the queen of all the world
I would go in chains just to see you free
Of the ropes that bind you
And the role you play
And the pride that hooks you
While the big ones get away
Love junkies wanna change the world:
It quickly stays the same
Money junkies hire all the smart ones
Power junkies run the game
One step at a time
Polarity Hill
If the bad guys don’t get you, baby
Then the good guys will
With angels on the take
And the gangsters in the yard
Hey don’t the wars come easy
Hey don’t the peace come hard
Now if I had a way to reach the sky
I’d grab that crescent moon
Wield it like a knife
Save you from the lies
From the ropes that bind you
And the role you play
And the game that hooks you
While the big ones get away--
Contre la guerre ...and everybody’s shouting “Which Side Are You On?”Mitch Ryder – Er Ist Nicht Mein Präsident

Contre la guerre ...and everybody’s shouting “Which Side Are You On?”Steve Goodman – Banana Republics
Down to the banana republics,
Down to the tropical sun
Come the expatriated Americans,
Expecting to have some fun
Some of them come for the sailing,
Drawn by the lure of the sea
To cure the spirit that’s ailing,
from living in the land of the free
Some of them are running from lovers
Leaving no forward address
Some of them are running marijuana
Some are running from the IRS
And late at night you will see them
In the cheap hotels and bars
Hustling the senoritas
As they dance beneath the stars
Spending the renegade pesos
On a bottle of rum and a lime
Singing „Give me some words I can dance to
And a melody that rhymes“
Once you learn the native customs
And a word of Spanish or two
Then you know you can’t trust them
Because they know they can’t trust you
Down in banana republics
It is not always as warm as it seems
When none of the natives are buying
Any second-hand American dreams
Expatriated Americans are feeling so all alone
Telling themselves the same lies
that they told themselves at home
And late at night you will see them
In the cheap hotels and bars
Hustling the senoritas
As they dance beneath the stars
Spending the renegade pesos
On a bottle of rum and a lime
Singing „Give me some words I can dance to
And a melody that rhymes“
Down to the banana republics,
Down to the tropical sun
Come the expatriated Americans,
Expecting to have some fun--
