From the only Echo + the Bunnymen album without the irreplaceable Ian McCulloch. The relatively unknown Irishman Noel Burke steps in and makes it his
own in spite of it all - still one of my favorite records.
We start listening to x-mas music in my family on Thanksgiving day..sorry, I'd thought I'd share my favorite Christmas song. Here's another to redeem
myself a bit..maybe..
You show me love then spit in my face
Making your money off all of my pain
You put an eagle inside of a cage
And you think I'm not strong enough to escape
But I refuse to let you make me feel like I can't fly
Not only will I soar again, I'll own the #ing sky
Yeah
So I put my middle finger up
I'm done being your slave
My generation's had enough
And you should be afraid
Oh woah oh, not your prisoner
Oh woah oh, better listen when I say
I put my middle finger up
I'm done being your slave
You couldn't even look me in the eye
When you let me go and then left me to die
But there was no question that I would survive
An artist on fire is one that's alive
You can't surround a lion with a bunch of lazy sheep
The one thing about royalty is that we love to feast
So I put my middle finger up
I'm done being your slave
My generation's had enough
And you should be afraid
Oh woah oh, not your prisoner
Oh woah oh, better listen when I say
I put my middle finger up
I'm done being your slave
Living like a riot
Setting off the sirens
Fists are clinched, I'm fighting
Soul has been ignited
Ain't got time for dying
I'm too busy thriving
More than just surviving
Heart is beating violent
Living like a riot
Setting off the sirens
Fists are clinched, I'm fighting
Soul has been ignited
Ain't got time for dying
I'm too busy thriving
More than just surviving
Heart is beating violent
So I put my middle finger up
I'm done being your slave
My generation's had enough
And you should be afraid
Oh woah oh, not your prisoner
Oh woah oh, better listen when I say
I put my middle finger up
I'm done being your slave
Happy Thanksgiving ATS!
I was blowing my ears out with music when I came across this version of Working Class hero.
It is worth sharing so I brought it here.
Lennon's music is one of the things I am thankful for.
Thank you Mr Lennon!
RIP
