Politics in song..... Post a song that says your beliefs
I'll start with Eve of Destruction by Barry McGuire because I truly find it more relevant today than it was in 1965.
Why? There's an oil slick that is encapsulating the whole freaking Gulf an may get out to the Atlantic, we are at war but 50% of our troops are on anti-depressants and sleep aids, we over medicate and then our waste containing the meds contaminate the fish and from there the eco system, families are falling apart, but we aren't on the Eve of Destruction. The world's economy is falling a part, there's violence in our streets, our schools and our homes, there's politicians and talking heads telling us to hate the other side because they break their egg on the wrong side.... But you tell me over and over and over and over and over again how ya don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
My blood's so mad it feels like coagulating, I'm sitting here just contemplating, I can't twist the truth it knows no regulation.... when human respect is disintegratin, this whole crazy world is just too frustrating
And you tell me over and over and over and over and over again how ya don't believe we're on the eve of destruction

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
