My Earworm This Morning
The Logical Song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBAasek8NR4

Seems so true to this liberal


When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
Joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
Logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
Clinical, intellectual, cynical.

There are times when all the worlds asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
Liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
Acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!

At night, when all the worlds asleep,
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.

1. Hey, SPK!
Thanks for the earworm. That's my favorite Supertramp song. I'll be humming it all day.

Troy is the second from the left...sultry sigh!


Little child
Dry your crying eyes
How can I explain
The fear you feel inside
cause you were born
Into this evil world
Where man is killing man
and no one knows just why

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again
When the children cry
Let them know that we tried
cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

Little child
You must show the way
To a better day
For all the young
cause you were born
For the world to see
That we all can live
With love and with peace

No more presidents
And all the wars will end
One united world under god

When the children cry
Let them know that we tried
cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

No more presidents
And all the wars will end
One united world under god

When the children cry
Let them know that we tried
cause when the children fight
Let them know it aint right

When the children break
Let them know we're awake
cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

4. That's An Awesome Song!
:headbang: :yourock:


What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

but we must make things right again!

Thanks for the earworm

You better love loving and you better behave
You better love loving and you better behave
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Calls her man the Great White Hope
Says she's fine, she'll always cope
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Well I feel lying and waiting is a poor man's deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
Trades her soul as skin and bones
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Men of Stone
Men of Stone
Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds Time can't heals
And I feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
It's under my skin but out of my hands
I'll tear it apart but I won't understand
I will not accept the Greatness of Man
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
So Free Her
So Free Her

8. Good choice
It would be a kick-ass tune even without Oleta Adams, but she just makes that song a million times cooler.
