"Wake Up!"

They say good fences
Make good neighbors

For you my friend
This might be true

But you still gotta put
The boards on the windows
To the soul inside of you

That t.v. in the corner
That's their greatest tool
They poison you mind
When you're a child

With their fear
And their guilt
And their rules

They teach you that you're just a number
As they program you in school
So by the time you're out
In their world on your own
You've been trained not to bite
The hand of the cruel

Wake up!

Don't believe that the system is failing
Don't believe that the planet is dead

They'll keep all the food for their fat fucking bellies
And the starving will kill or be fed

And they'll try to turn me against you
So divided,we'll turn to them
Because anything strong cannot be conquered from without
Before first being conquered from within.

Don't let them get you down.
Don't let them get you down.

Don't let them get you down.
Don't let them get you down.
Don't let them get you down.
Don't let them get you down.

Life is a movie,we are all actors
Don't let them edit you out.

Life is a movie,we are all actors
Don't let them edit you out.

Don't let them get you down.
Don't let them get you down.

Don't let them get you down.
Don't let them get you down.

The Fred Eaglesmith Traveling Steam Show
Tif Ginn Getaway Car
https://youtu.be/wfMfwqfa6sg

Got to see Fred Eaglesmith down at the Iron Horse. Becky has turned me on to his music recently, knew I'd enjoy the show. Had no idea how much I'd like Tif Ginn, she and his backing band opened for them and I was floored. We had the best seats in the house, great show.

Oh and Fred was great as well.

"Dreaming in the night I saw a land, Where no man had to fight "

"Walking all the day, near tall towers, Where falcons build their nests, Silver winged they fly, They know the call of freedom in their breasts...

"Talking all the day with true friends, Who try to make you stay, Telling jokes and news, Singing songs to pass the night away... "

"Waking in your dawn, I saw you crying in the morning light
Lying where the falcons fly, They twist and turn all in you e'er blue sky ..."



Yeah, I've got a few friends like this: "true friends, Who try to make you stay."

One of my all time favorites, "Once We Were Anarchists" by Frank Turner

The demonstrations got boring –
Well it was obvious that the government was ignoring us.
It's hard to drag yourself through empty streets
On an empty stomach and no sleep.
The shortcomings got clearer,
As the price we paid got dearer and dearer.
It's supposed to be a case of give and take –
Well I was feeling the give and making a mistake.

And I've heard it said that the unexamined life
Isn't much worth living, and I'm sure they're right.
But it's hard to keep on fighting the good fight
When no one else seems bothered, yeah,
When no one's on your side.

I've got friends who are bankers,
And it's an easy rhyme to call them wankers,
But I must say I envy the way that they live
In a style that's all take and no give,
While I'm playing the Lone Ranger,
Riding to the rescue of six billion strangers,
Armed with only unoriginal songs
And a sense that something's wrong.

And I must admit that I'm tired of saying "no" all the time.
But I must admit that I don't really know what would be right.
And if politics is helping all the people then my political career is pretty fucked,
Because the truth is I don't like people all that much.

The times they aren't a-changing –
Yeah, England's still shit and it's still raining,
And everybody's jaded and tired and bored
And no one lifts a finger because
It's just not in our culture.
Our culture is carrion and we're all vultures,
And no one seems bothered by this state of play –
It seems that the stench is with us to stay.

So I had a go, I tried examining life.
It wasn't much worth living – I guess they're right.
And I'm tired of fighting a fight that's not my fight.
But so is everybody else – we're all on the same side.

I'm young enough to be all pissed off
But I'm old enough to be jaded.
I'm of the age where I want things to change
But with age my hopes have faded.
I'm young and bored of being young and bored –
If I was old I could say I'd seen it all before.
In short, I'm tired, and in short I'm probably fired.
If the revolution doesn't want me I don't give a shit.

Grandpa Elliott and Clarence Bekker sing "A Change is Gonna Come" with 'Playing for Change.' These artists are picked up as street musicians all over the world.

Nice...
I really enjoyed the Neville Brothers doing that tune.

Powerful version:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4

"I turned my collar to the cold and damp ...
"And no one dared, Disturb the sound of silence, ...

"Fools", said I, "You do not know, Silence like a cancer grows, Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell ...

" ... people bowed and prayed, To the neon god they made ...
