Say What You Want

[mmonk]

I saw your rantin' on TV today
I heard you tell me to reload
You got a lot of nerve to talk that way
Someone unplug the microphone

I'm tired of all the fighting
Cynicism and back-biting
Can't even hear myself think
You pour the Kool-Aid and then we drink

So much noise, so much chatter
Does the truth even matter?

Say, say what you want to
(Even though you never mean it)
Say, say what you want to
(Ain't got time to be wastin' time)

Say, say what you want to
(We had a chance and now we're gonna blow it)
Say, say what you want to
(If this is America, you'd never know it)

Ignorance is patriotic
Reason is idiotic
Winds of change keep on blowin'
If this is America, you'd never know it

So much noise, so much chatter
Does the truth even matter?

Say, say what you want to
(Even though you never mean it)
Say, say what you want to
(Ain't got time to be wastin' time)

Say, say what you want to
(We had a chance, now we're gonna blow it)
Say, say what you want to
(If this is America, you'd never know it)

All you little ones with open hearts
Don't let hatred tear your world apart
And if you wonder who is wrong or who is right
Better go ask God to shine some light

Earthquakes and jihad Jane
Talkin' heads and hate campaigns
If aliens should land today
Who would be more afraid, us or them?

Say, say what you want to
(Even though you never mean it)
Say, say what you want to
(Ain't got time to be wastin' time)

Say, say what you want to
(We had a chance, now we're gonna blow it)
Say, say what you want to
(If this is America, you'd never know it)

Say, say what you want to
(You gotta say it, say)
Say, say what you want to
(Whatever's on your mind)

Say, say what you want to
(Give me a microphone, baby)
Say, say what you want to
(All the things I want to say)

Say, say what you want to
Say, say what you want to
Say, say what you want to
Say, say what you want to
(Are you lovers, are you haters?)

Say, say what you want to
(Can someone say, yeah?)
Say, say what you want to
Say, say what you want to

2. I'm taking a break.

Then on the way to a Mother's Day outing, I put this CD in my car stereo. Thought I would come back and share it. It kind of summed up how I felt. Still taking the break. Recharging.

3. Thanks for the song, and thanks for that it is only a break. I'm relieved... n/t

[mmonk]

9. Thanks much and you're welcome.

[malaise]

8. I hope you stick around n/t

[mmonk]

11. I will.

I burn out on the silly sometimes. Thanks.

10. Lolz

The only thing missing was a cartwheel.

4. About Sarah Palin?

Sounds like it.

6. Has that ring, certainly in the beginning.

5. Is this one the GBCW, or the earlier short one. It is possible to simply

not log on to a forum and just be away for period of time.

There was a member who said goodbye three separate times not too long ago, but the goodbyes didn't stick.

7. I don't do it often. Just thought I'd back away for awhile.

I think it was the "crying" and hand wringing and /or support over bin Laden charge and such when trying to discuss capture vs execution on the spot. Taking a line from the song, "Ain't got time to be wastin' time".
