What are you listening to? (ongoing participation thread)

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath (Full Album) 1970 – смотреть видео онлайн в Моем Мире | Николай Страхов

 

I've become disgusted with young men listening to Rap "music." I think it has more to do with being a decent human being than just getting older. Even if I can't catch all the lyrics, what I can hear always sounds disrespectful to women, thuggish (usually from little men with no life experience) and generally promoting immoral, if not illegal activity. My old JBL speakers at work can overpower any of the youngsters bluetooth speakers, so when I get tired of hearing their cRap I play something like this... Loud.

 

Circles
Manfred Mann's Earth Band
Going round in circles
Directions all messed up
I go to ground on a bottle of wine
And drown myself in the flood
My frozen toes are beginning to melt
I believe I'm catching a cold
Got oil on my feathers and I can't fly
I gotta get back to your love
I'm a clown without a circus
There's no-one to see my act
I can laugh and sing and stand on my head
Nodbody knows where I'm at
It's hard to be convincing
When these blues don't give an inch
I ain't exactly losing
But I'm beginning to feel the pinch
My days are long and lonely
And I feel so insecure
There ain't nothing funny I'm losing you honey
I can't laugh anymore
Old chang surely told me
Not to mess with what you got
But I went stomping all over your head
Like a bull in a china shop

Sketchy Lyrics (I can't read lips on YouTube, but there are three versions of some lines.)

Blazin' down the highway
I'd rather have it my way
Gotta have more....
Rules on the roadside
Floor it like a landmine
Keep you on your toes

You head out for the take
What's the fuss your makin'
Can't you see the light?
You gotta get down when you roll up out of town
And it makes you feel alright

My life is a good life to lead
Writing on the wall is a good story to read

You think me a trusting tiger
I know that you're a lions
Eatin' from your hand
Burnin' down the hotel
Runnin' round hell now
Rock and roll band

Runnin' helter skelter
Knock her down and belt her
Show her who's the boss
You better treat her sweet
Or you'll be out in the street
And that would be a loss
My life is a good life to lead
Writing on the wall is a good story to read

Lining up to egg us
I'm sure they won't thank us
Needle in your mouth
But now that we know that I'd rather shoot a goose then let it
Flyin down south

Writin, writing on the wall
Writin, writing on the wall

Blazin' down the highway
I'd rather have it my way
Gotta have more
Rules on the roadside
Floor it like a landmine
Keep you on your toes

Writin, writing on the wall
Writin, writing on the wall
Writin, writing on the wall
Writin, writing on the wall

Lyrics

Across a painted desert lies a train of vagabonds
All that's left of what we were, it's what we have become
Once our empires glorious but now the empire's gone
The dead gave us the time to live and now our time is done
Now we are victorious, we've become our slaves
A land of hope and glory, building graveyards for the brave
Have you seen the writing on the wall?
Have you seen that writing?
Can you see the riders on the storm?
Can you see them riding?
Can you see them riding?
Holding on to fury, is that all we ever know?
Ignorance our judge and jury all we've got to show
From Hollywood to Babylon, holy war to kingdom come
On a trail of dust and ashes, when the burning sky is done
A tide of change is coming and that is what you fear
The earthquake is a coming, but you don't want to hear
You're just too blind to see
Have you seen the writing on the wall?
Have you seen that writing?
Can you see the riders on the storm?
Can you see them riding?
Can you see them riding, riding next to you?
Have you seen the writing on the wall?
Have you seen that writing?
Can you see the riders on the storm?
Can you see them riding?
Have you seen the writing on the wall?
Have you seen that writing?
Can you see the riders on the storm?
Can you see them riding?
Can you see them riding, riding next to you?
