Going Under - Rocker’s HiFi (Kruder and Dorfmeister version)
Pit patter little raindrops keep falling on my window pane
The city calling me out into the night
With promises of pleasures and sweet delight
It’s wrong
It’s oh so wrong
But I want it
To be right
Now you got me walking on the sidewalk
Talking, moving, looking
Stopping
Farting like a dog
Barking
Now the raindrops keep on landing on my face like spelter
Each one branding me
Showing me who I am
…don’t give a damn…
Now you got me walking through the clubland again
Looking through the smiles
Each one a friend
None a dem none a dem
And this is
Oh so
Demanding
Cause at night I have a million dreams and then I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take
Me away from this vanity
From this e-fuelled
Love and insanity
It’s so wrong
It’s so wrong it’s so wrong
But I want it
To be right …
I’ve been rocking this one all day.
“AL QAEDA — The newest issue of The Al Qaedain hasn’t even hit newstands and is quickly causing a stir for its graphic portrayal of a patriotic Osama.”
I’m in shock!

I should try this on the Lincoln Tunnel.
“The Spanish Civil War began on this day in 1936. Armed with only their cameras, Robert Capa, David “Chim” Seymour, and Gerda Taro (who died when a tank crushed her vehicle during the Battle of Brunete in 1937) personalized the struggle of the Spanish Loyalists, illuminated the strength and the courage of the soldiers who carried on despite insufferable odds, and galvanized compassion for the innocent and injured.”
Yep. The future does look bright for Rock music.
Ouroburos!
