THE MUSIC'S NOT OVER
my love's not one
to lay back and listen to music.
that's why we fuck all day.
that's why i love music.
man, what the fuck?
200,000 years
and i'm still none the wiser
cos nothing changes. governments
world-wide, year-in year-out, pledge
prosperity and promised lands.
yet, after 6000 years of 'civilisation'
(whatever that means), here we are
still stuck in the bog of eternal stench
and i'm fucked as to how to stop its rot,
since history tells me that revolutions
don't work. they merely replace one
power crazed idiot with another
reason i love music.
