Satellite//Hooters
hush, little baby, don't cry like that,
God's gonna buy you a cadillac.
he's chosen you to do his will,
you can spread the word in your coupe de ville.
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
and if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
look to the heavens and see it shine
heals the sick and leads the blind
tune it in and hear it say
it's counting down to judgement day
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
and if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
hey satellite man your time has come
your words received by everyone
and should you fall, well that's ok
you love the ones that you betray
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna take away all your sins
and when at last you see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
God's gonna buy you a cadillac.
he's chosen you to do his will,
you can spread the word in your coupe de ville.
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
and if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
look to the heavens and see it shine
heals the sick and leads the blind
tune it in and hear it say
it's counting down to judgement day
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna wash away all your sins
and if you still can't see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite
hey satellite man your time has come
your words received by everyone
and should you fall, well that's ok
you love the ones that you betray
So jump in the river and learn to swim
God's gonna take away all your sins
and when at last you see the light
God's gonna buy you a satellite

Drunken lullaby
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
Five hundred years like Gelignite
Have blown us all to hell
What savior rests while on his cross we die
Forgotten freedom burns
Has the Shepard led his lambs astrayto the bigot and the gun
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies
I watch and stare as Rosin`s eyes
Turn a darker shade of red
And the bullet with this sniper lie
In their bloody gutless cell
Must we starve on crumbs from long ago
Through these bars of men made steel
Is it a great or little thing we fought
Knelt the conscience blessed to kill
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies
I sit in and dwell on faces past
Like memories seem to fade
No colour left but black and white
And soon will all turn grey
But may these shadows rise to walk again
With lessons truly learnt
When the blossom flowers in each our hearts
Shall beat a new found flame
Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies
Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies
Singin' drunken lullabies
Emma av Kaoru Mori

Offrets timme
Du gav ju hela jorden bort, på himmelsvägar lärde du dig gå.
I din hand är rosen död, vinden rör ej din kind.
Vem offrar du ännu?
När timmen slår, skall du besvara denna fråga:
då träffar du ditt val med liv och död som vittnen.
Edith Irene Södergran finlandssvensk poet. (1892-1923)

'I cannot explain it to you in ways that you can test
and unambiguously confirm,
but I have the truth.
Trust me and belive me; the truth has been revealed to me.'
(theory of knowledge, p 21)
Confucius

Shall I teach you what knowledge is?
When you know a thing, to recognise that you know it;
and when you do not know a thing, to recognise that you do not know it.
That is knowledge.

Cecilia//simon & garfunkel
Celia, youre breaking my heart
Youre shaking my confidence daily
Oh, cecilia, Im down on my knees
Im begging you please to come home
Youre shaking my confidence daily
Oh, cecilia, Im down on my knees
Im begging you please to come home
Celia, youre breaking my heart
Youre shaking my confidence daily
Oh, cecilia, Im down on my knees
Im begging you please to come home
Come on home
Making love in the afternoon with cecilia
Up in my bedroom (making love)
I got up to wash my face
When I come back to bed
Someones taken my place
Celia, youre breaking my heart
Youre shaking my confidence daily
Oh, cecilia, Im down on my knees
Im begging you please to come home
Come on home
Jubilation, she loves me again,
I fall on the floor and I laughing,
Jubilation, she loves me again,
I fall on the floor and I laughing
Sounds of Silence// simon & garfunkel
Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
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,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
