  • I still had this on my clip board from earlier, when I mentioned it in another thread. One of my favorite parts of one of my favorite songs. The Dead Kennedy’s Stars and Stripes of Corruption. If you have never heard it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=983DwAOCXRI

    But what can just one of us do
    Against all that money and power trying to crush us into roaches?
    We won’t destroy society in a day
    Until we change ourselves first from the inside out

    We can start by not lying so much and treating other people like dirt
    It’s so easy not to base our lives on how much we can scam
    And you know it feels good to lift that monkey off our back

    If you don’t know the song, its chalk full of cynicism and angst. But it ends with a good message. The fast beat and quick rythmic delivery of the lyrics with the beautiful surf guitar…

    If we don’t try
    If we just lie
    If we can’t find a way
    To do better than this
    Who will?
