"Oh My God" by Michael Franti & Spearhead, from the album "The Wire - ...and all the pieces matter" (companion CD to the HBO television show)

Quote:


(chorus)
Oh my, oh my God
In my mind they got us livin’ suicide
Singin’ oh my, oh my God
In my mind they got us livin’ genocide
Singin' oh my, oh my God
Oh my god...

Slam! Bam! I come unseen
But like gasoline
You can tell I’m in the tank
Like money in the bank
I smell appealing,
But I’m toxic, can send you reelin'
Without an inklin’,
Keep ya thinkin’
‘Cause you gave cash to the feds,
Left your school district for dead
Fucked you up in the head,
But still they sayin’ nothin’s wrong
Still believing the systems workin’
While half of my people are still out of work, an'
Anonymous notes
Left in the pockets and coats
Of judges and juries
From ‘Frisco and Jersey
Threats and protests,
Politicians, mob debts,
Trumped up charges and phony arrests...
Stage a lethal injection,
The night before the election
‘Cause he got donations from the prison guard’s union.

(chorus)

Listen to my stethoscope
On a rope
Internal lullabies,
Human cries,
Thumps and silence,
Language and violence;
Algorithmic, cataclysmic, seismic, biorhythmic...
You can make a life longer, but you can’t save it?
You can make a human clone and then you try to enslave it?
Stealin’ DNA samples from the unborn
And then you comin’ after us
‘Cause we sampled a James Brown horn?
Scientists whose only God is progress -
A four-headed sheep is their latest project!
The CIA runnin’ like that Jones from Indiana,
But they still won’t talk about that Jones in Guyana.
This ain’t no cartoon, no one slips on bananas;
Do you really think that that car killed Diana?
Hell, I shot Ronald Regan, I shot JFK,
I slept with Marilyn; she sung me “Happy Birthday”

(chorus)

While politicians got lipstick on the collar,
The whole media startin' to holler.
But I don’t give a fuck who they screwin’ in private;
I wanna know who they screwin’ in public
Robbin’, cheatin’, stealin’,
White collar criminal,
McDonald eatin',
You deserve a beatin’!
Send you home a weepin’,
With a fat bill for your Caribbean weekend.
For just about anything they can bust us -
It's false advertising sayin’ “Halls of Justice”
You tellin’ the youth "Don’t be so violent!"
Then you droppin' bombs on every single continent?
Mandatory minimum sentencin’, why?
‘Cause he got caught with a pocket full of medicine
Do that again another ten up in the pen
I feel so mad I wanna bomb an institution

(chorus)



Mike

Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day...
Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

Not for nothing...but my drunk ass is listening to Papa Don't Preach by Madonna.

And, I stick by that.

My girlfriend hates this song. I don't.

-Danny

God bless the Daylight,
The sugary smell of Spring-time,
Remembering when you were mine,
In a still suburban town,
When every Thursday,
I'd brave those mountain passes,
And you'd skip your early classes,
And we'd learn how our bodies work

The Boomtown Rats - "I Don't Like Mondays".


I don't think I ever realized the glam-era Bowie influences in the song before now. Lots of "Life On Mars"-era Bowie-ness to it.


Who knew Sir Bob Geldof was a glam-rocker...

"And You And I" - Yes (from the album "Close to the Edge")


Trivia factoid: This is the song that gave Joss Whedon the name for his production company, Mutant Enemy, according to Wiki. It's also the name he gave his typewriter. :)

I just realized it when listening, and don't know why I'd never caught that before, since I've had this album (or cassette, or CD, or MP3 file) since about 1975 or so, and even used to play it on guitar... But I never caught the lyric until today:

Quote:

Sad preacher nailed upon the coloured door of time
Insane teacher be there reminded of the rhyme
There'll be no mutant enemy we shall certify
Political ends, as sad remains will die
