I so do not care for what the politicians say, listened to this song by Sting & the Police
which I agree with
I check out the lyrics and this verse I was thinking of
Poets, priests and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no one's jamming their transmission
And when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and wraps you
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no one's jamming their transmission
And when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and wraps you
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
Is all I want to say to you

Then the song ends with words are meaningless
and that I think not is, do de da doesn't mean anything.
But funnily enough many lyrics have been written rather indirect political agenda like
Some Beatles songs are very wordly political oriented (now Hey Jude is not about the Jew but it was it translates to in Swedish) My fav Beatles song is Come together because it has that kind of a zing to it or it is the News song I like better - A day in the life is good song too.
Another person that has written songs a little bit under the influence is Cornelis Vreeswijk,
he was from Holland originally but he has become a Swedish national bard, his songs have
been sung by every school children (at least when I went there some years ago) I had this
idea of translating his music to english and found out that he has already done the opposite
he translated some verses from English to Swedish but he did it with his words and twisted
them to be entertaining. Incestvisan that he translated he got awarded a prize for from a
swedish female magazine for have written the most horrible manschauvinistiska song that
year. That it was about incest was enough for him to get the award but then he told that the
original writer of the song was female Buffy Saint Marie, that he Cornelis himself talked to
and got permission to translate the song from her: The incest song, that she learned from
her grandmother, a real navajoindian. Then Cornelis sings the song all ends well since there
been some misunderstanding in the family about who was who's father...
So one can look into more information thanks to the internet and Buffy is still touring the world,
apparently she wrote the song "Up where we belong" that became a film soundtrack for "An officer
and a gentleman" which is Richard Gere like, that´s my grandmothers favorite actor.
So one comes from politicians I care not for to, to the things one do care about, family.
That scene is so Simpsons now. Homer carries Marge through the toxic power plant, Its funny how the cartoons or animations so rule the world at the same time terrifying because a new generation has no recollection of that original screenplay. Education is therefor very important. Learn something new everyday why don't you?
Do de da words meaningless up where we belong...
Rest in peace, Vila i Frid, Robert Broberg, visans välgörare i Öken - Ajöken
