很湊巧的,很多國家的人民都受不了他們的當權者。
英國,美國,法國,日本,韓國...當然還有台灣,當權者的民意支持度都頗低,但當權者卻都繼續的當權下去...
我不喜歡討論政治,但卻喜歡討論人性和社會現象。這個週末,我為各位帶來我一直都還滿喜歡的一位歌手Neil Young的歌曲Let's Impeach the President.。Neil Young寫這首歌的對象,當然是那個據說智商只有90的George W. Bush,不過說真的各位,這首歌真的很巧,內容中也有不少巧合之處....
廢話少說,以下是歌詞原詞刊登~
Let's impeach the President for lying,
Misleading our country into WAR,
Abusing all the power that we gave him,
And shipping all our money out the door,
Who's the man who hired all the criminals,
The white house shadows who hide behind closed doors,
And bend the facts to fit with their new story,
Of why we have to send our men to war,
Let's impeach the President for spying,
On citizens inside their own homes,
Breaking every law in the country,
By tapping our computers and telephones,
What if AL QUAEDA blew up the levees,
Would New Orleans have been safer that way?
Sheltered by the government's protection,
Or was someone just not home that day?
Let's impeach the president for hijacking,
Our religion and using it to get elected
Dividing our country into colors
And still leaving black people neglected.
Thank God he's crackin' down on steroids,
Since he sold his old baseball team.
There's lot's of people looking at big trouble.
But of course the President is clean.
我不翻譯,大家自己看著辦吧。
另,當然正如世上所有的人與事一樣,永遠都有贊成反對和沒意見(或不敢表示意見?搞不懂所以沒意見?)這幾類的人,Neil Young這張反戰(其實,我覺得根本就是反總統)專輯"Living with war",同樣地也讓媒體掀起了正反兩方的大戰(沒意見的當然就不會有任何意見訴諸文字啦...),有興趣的人,可以點選這個連結http://neilyoung.com/lww/lww_greatdebate.html。
有趣的是,原來全世界的人們,竟然是如此的相像;不論是統治者,或是被統治者都一樣。
BTW,這裡沒有版權問題喲,因為Neil Young這整張專輯本來就是先在網路上發行,提供音質較差的版本供人免費下載,有興趣的人再付費去買音質較優的版本,歌詞更是全部都刊登出來,也因為如此,Neil Young這張專輯還引起全球Blog大串連的刊登他的專輯連結喔!
