What comes and goes
Maybe world is too crazy, maybe it’s not crazy enough. What’s true is that every day I see more weird news on TV.
Let’s see… China acts on funeral strippers. It’s true. This is the most outrageous news I have read today. Come on! How can you strip on a funeral? It should be one of those rituals that should take the dead’s soul closer to God, or at least this happens in my religion. Strippers? I wonder what music they listen to on these funerals. Should it be “You can leave your coffin on”? Or maybe some Sentenced songs like: Digging the grave, or Killing me, Killing you? It’s incredible what people can do to increase the audience of a funeral.
“The once-common events are held to boost the number of mourners, as large crowds are seen as a mark of honour.“ Who’s honour? People go there to see the strippers, free show. This is like that news I read some time ago about the discounts the german unemployed got for their night visit to the prostitutes. I use to like traditions, they bring that special something to a country, but this seems a little bit exagerated to me.
And this is not all… Now we seem to have only 8 planets. Pluto loses status as a planet. So, everything we have learned at school is lost, it’s not the same. I wonder how this will affect astrology and all the other sciences. It’s strange to see that what you knew for all your life is wrong. What will be next: Terra is a Caprabo bag and humans are some evaluated hairy worm? What can we expect now? Everything is changing, war is all around and planets are not planets anymore. I support the advance of the science and tecnology but don’t confuse us!
And a very good one, quite impressive. They don’t prohibit games like Counter Strike, they show violence on TV all day long, and more than that they show almost naked poor girls that don’t have enough money for a skirt so they think that a scarf will do it, so they show up on TV with the scarf instead of the skirt. Don’t kids see that? Of course they do, but still, that is not bad. What is really bad, in their opinion, is that Tom smokes so… Smoke’s no joke for Tom and Jerry. And this is a solution to a problem. Congratulations! You’ve done a great job, but not the job you should do.
So, this is the world we live in. Welcome to the jungle. I’m changing vines!
Human race sucks hard.
What did you expect? The whole thing began with the wheel. Or when the monkeys learnt to speak. Only “God” knows. You are used to something and then changes, that’s “life actually”. In your job, your friends, the people changes, the world changes, the planets change (well, they lose their high-class status). People getting rich while on the other side there are people dying of AIDS or whatever…
Anyway here comes the Shape of Punk to Come:
“I got a bone with capitalism and a few to break
Grab us by the throat and shake the life away
Human life is not commodity, figures, statistics or make believe
And yeah I like eating excrement and not getting paid for it
Play the guilt, play the fear and play the anxiety
And yeah I like eating excrement and not getting paid for it
Play the guilt, play the fear and play the anxiety
Seduced by the opportunity and robbed of hope
Human suffering is not commodity, statistics or make believe
Marginalise away the joy and sell us boredom
And yeah I like working doing nothing and not making anything
Blame the poor, blame the uneducated and blame the sick
And yeah I like working doing nothing and not making anything
Blame the poor, blame the uneducated and blame the sick
I took the first bus out of Coca-Cola city
cause it made me feel all nauseous and shitty
I took the first bus out of Shell town cause they didn’t want me hanging around
YEAH YEAH
I took the first bus
Let’s take the first bus out of here (8x)”
