The Humble Of Birth

Let’s drink to the hard working people
Let’s drink to the lowly of birth
Raise your glass to the good and the evil
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Say a prayer for the common foot soldier
Spare a thought for his back breaking work
Say a prayer for his wife and his children
Who burn the fires and who still till the earth
And when I search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and
Black and white
They don’t look real to me
In fact, they look so strange
Raise your glass to the hard working people
Let’s drink to the uncounted heads
Let’s think of the wavering millions
Who need leaders but get gamblers instead
Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
His empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a parade of the gray suited grafters
A choice of cancer or polio
And when I look in the faceless crowd
A swirling mass of grays and
Black and white
They don’t look real to me
Or don’t they look so strange
Let’s drink to the hard working people
Let’s think of the lowly of birth
Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Let’s drink to the hard working people
Let’s drink to the salt of the earth
Let’s drink to the two thousand million
Let’s think of the humble of birth

You Can’t Always Get What You Want, And No One Wanted This

Hey, Mick. Whatcha doing?

“We’re doin’ a tewevision show, aren’t we? Gonna spwead a wittle joy an’ all that t’the faaaaaaaaans.”

That’s nice of you. What’s with Charlie?

“Chahwee?”

Charlie.

“CHAH-weeeeee.”

Char. Char. You make the sides of your tongue hit the roof of your mouth.

“He’s my drummah, in’t he?”

Oh, don’t say that. He gets angry when you say that.

“Don’t bewieve that story. It’s scuh-wuh-wis.”

Huh?

“Scuh-wih-wis.”

Are you trying to say ‘scurrilous?”

“I don’t care.”

Seriously, why is Charlie air drumming?

“I don’t care.”

Don’t be putulant.

“I’m not being petch-oo-wint.”

Don’t say “petulant,” either. Don’t be it or say it.

“Wisten, you. Don’t tell me–”

SHWUZZNERGNERGNERGBLAMPF!

“What wuzzat?”

Ah, shit.”

“JAGGER, YOU ARE A BAG MADE OF FLESH AND FULL OF SHIT!”

“Michael. Come to me.”

“Don’t call me that.”

“This is your name. I had a name once, but it got lost somewhere in the sea of time. Come to me, Michael, and we will be mopey together. I have a castle.”

“I awso have a castle.”

“Mine is spookier.”

“Fine. Do you have any Bauhaus records?”

“I might. Hey, what happened to Charwee?”

“Are you trying to say ‘Charlie?'”

“IĀ am saying Chahwee.”

“Pwease stop yewwing. Why are you in a spacesuit?”

“I am an ice pirate.”

“Cool.”

Play It Loud, And Four Or Five Times In A Row

I’m just trawling the Comment Section for content at this point; Valued Commentator JES reminds us of the greatest Stones song that none of the Stones played on.

(But HOLY SHIT what a band! Ry Cooder on slide–you knew that–but did you know about Randy Newman on piano? That one! With the curly hair and the Oscars! Plus, Jerry Scheff from Elvis’ Vegas band on bass!)

OR

This is the most evil lyric ever written. All that semi-satanic bullshit Slayer and those other heavy mental bands growled pales in comparison, espcially to the opening verse.

Didn’t I see you down in San Antone on a hot and dusty night?
We were eating eggs in Sammy’s when the black man there drew his knife
Aw, you drowned that Jew in Rampton as he washed his sleeveless shirt
You know, that Spanish-speaking gentlemen the one we all called Kurt
Come now, gentleman, I know there’s some mistake
How forgetful I’m becoming now you fixed your business straight
I remember you in Hemlock Road in nineteen fifty-six
You’re a faggy little leather boy with a smaller piece of stick
You’re a lashing, smashing hunk of man your sweat shines sweet and strong
Your organs working perfectly but there’s a part that’s not screwed on
Weren’t you at the Coke convention back on nineteen sixty-five?
You’re the misbred, gray executive I’ve seen heavily advertised
You’re the great, gray man whose daughter licks policemen’s buttons clean
You’re the man who squats behind the man who works the soft machine
Come now, gentleman your love is all I crave
You’ll still be in the circus when I’m laughing, laughing in my grave
When the old men do the fighting and the young men all look on
And the young girls eat their mothers meat from tubes of plasticon
Be wary of these my gentle friends of all the skins you breed
They have a tasty habit they eat the hands that bleed
So remember who you say you are and keep your noses clean
Boys will be boys and play with toys so be strong with your beast
Oh Rosie dear, don’tcha think it’s queer so stop me if you please
The baby is dead, my lady said, “You gentlemen, why, you all work for me”
If they had played this at Altamont, way more kids would have died.
