Turbid Freedom

Pet Shop Boys
We’re All Criminals Now

Hey, hey
Don’t ask me how
We’ve changed
We’re all criminals now
Hey, hey
Don’t ask me how
We’re blamed
We’re all criminals now

Just a routine procedure
(We’re watching you)
A sample of your DNA
(The things you do)
Queuing to be finger-printed
(You could be dangerous)
Going to the USA
Another routine procedure
(We’re on your case)
Driving in your car
(We’ve seen your face)
Stopped and searched and questioned
(Some place before)
Can you prove who you are?
Hey, hey
Don’t ask me how
We’ve changed
We’re all criminals now
Hey, hey
Don’t ask me how
We’ve been framed
We’re all criminals now

Hey, hey, hey
We’re all criminals now
Hey, hey, hey
We’re all criminals now

Got the bus to the station
Music playing in my head
Ran to get on the tube train
Police shot someone dead

Don’t ask me how We’re all criminals now

Hey, hey
Don’t ask me how
We’re blamed
We’re all criminals now
Hey, hey
Don’t ask me how
We’ve been framed
We’re all criminals now

Beatific Wishes

There’s a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us somewhere

There’s a time for us
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to learn, time to care

Someday, somewhere
We’ll find a new way of living
We’ll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere

There’s a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand and we’re
half way there
Hold my hand and I’ll
take you there

Somehow, someday
Somewhere

Somewhere

There’s a place for us
A time and a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Hold my hand and I’ll
take you there

Somehow, someday
Somewhere

Happy New Year 2009

Euphonious Song On Mankind

andy| October 12, 2008 12:52 pm

Great song by Pet Shop Boys called “What Keeps Mankind Alive?:

You gentlemen who think you have a mission
to purge us of the seven deadly sins
should first sort out the basic food position
then start your preaching, that’s where it begins

You lot who preach restraint and watch your waist as well
should learn for all time how the world is run
However much you twist, whatever lies you tell
food is the first thing, morals follow on
So first make sure that those who now are starving
get proper helpings when we all start carving

What keeps mankind alive? The fact that millions
are daily tortured, stifled, punished, silenced, oppressed

Mankind can keep alive thanks to its brilliance
at keeping its humanity repressed
For once you must not try to shirk the facts
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts

You say the girls may strip with your permission
You draw the line dividing art from sin
So first sort out the basic food position
then start your preaching, that’s where it begins

You lot who bank on your desires and our disgust
should learn for all time how the world is run
Whatever lies you tell, however much you twist
food is the first thing, morals follow on
So first make sure that those who now are starving
get proper helpings when we all start carving

What keeps mankind alive? The fact that millions
are daily tortured, stifled, punished, silenced, oppressed
Mankind can keep alive thanks to its brilliance
at keeping its humanity repressed
For once you must not try to shirk the facts
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts

Mankind can keep alive thanks to its brilliance
at keeping its humanity repressed
For once you must not try to shirk the facts
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts

Laudable Singing

What a perfect week for a great biking song:

S-s-s-s A-a-a-a F-f-f-f E-e-e-e T-t-t-t Y-y-y-y
Safe, bike!

[Spoken]
We can bike if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
‘Cause your friends don’t bike and if they don’t bike
Well they’re no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can bike

[Sung]
We can bike if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
‘Cause your friends don’t bike and if they don’t bike
Well they’re no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can bike
Bike!

We can go when we want to
Morning is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat from our helmets to our feet
And surprise ‘em with the victory cry
Say, we can act if want to
If we don’t nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile

[Refrain]
I say, we can bike, we can bike
Everything out of control
We can bike, we can bike
We’re doing it from wall to wall
We can bike, we can bike
Everybody look at your hands
We can bike, we can bike
Everybody takin’ the cha-a-a-ance

Safety bike
Is it safe to bike
Is it safe to bike

S-s-s-s A-a-a-a F-f-f-f E-e-e-e T-t-t-t Y-y-y-y
Safe, bike!

We can bike if we want to
We’ve got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it
Everything’ll work out right
I say, we can bike if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
‘Cause your friends don’t bike and if they don’t bike
Well they’re no friends of mine

[Refrain]

Is it safe to bike, oh is it safe to bike [6x]
Is it safe to bike
