quote:

With a warm heart
With the eyes in our beer glasses
At the Fat Adrienne de Montalent
With my buddy Jojo
And my buddy Pierre
We went to drink away our youth
Jojo took himself for Voltaire
And Pierre for Casanova
And I, I was the proudest
I, I was just being myself
And just around midnight, when the notaries walked by
Coming out of the Three Pheasants hotel,
We showed them our asses and our good manners
And sang to them:

The bourgeois are just like pigs
The older they get, the stupider they become
The bourgeois are just like pigs
The older they get, the stupider they ...

With a warm heart
With the eyes in our beer glasses
At the Fat Adrienne de Montalent
With my buddy Jojo
And my buddy Pierre
We went to drink away our youth/twenties
Voltaire danced like a vicar
And Casanova didn’t dare to
And I, I was always the proudest
I was almost as drunk as myself
And just around midnight, when the notaries walked by
Coming out of the Three Pheasants hotel,
We showed them our asses and our good manners
And sang to them:

The bourgeois are just like pigs
The older they get, the stupider they become
The bourgeois are just like pigs
The older they get, the stupider they ...

The hearts are resting
The eyes are firmly on the ground
At the bar of the Three Pheasants hotel
With master Jojo
And master Pierre
Amidst notaries we pass our time
Jojo talks about Voltaire
And Pierre about Casanova
And I, I am still the proudest
I still talk about myself
And it's just around midnight, Mr Commissar,
That every night at the Montalent
These young punks show us their asses
Singing to us:

The bourgeois are just like pigs
The older they get, the stupider they become
They say, Mr. Police Superintendent
The bourgeois
The older they get, the stupider they ...

quote:

Burnin It Down

'Fore I was born, there were no limitations
Said my goodbyes at the greyhound station
Here I am half a mile from where I grew up
In a parking lot sittin' in my pickup truck

And I'm thinkin' bout burnin' it down, boys
Thinkin' bout burnin' it down
Nothin's ever gonna be the same in this town…

Ten gallons of gas and a bottle of propane
I took the lighter off my grill and I still can't
Say for certain that this thing'll blow.
But if it does I'm gonna be the first one to know.

I'm thinkin' bout burnin' it down, boys
Thinkin' bout burnin' it down
Nothin's ever gonna be the same in this town
I'm thinkin' bout burnin' the Walmart down.

Always used to say I'd come back some day and settle down.
I'm getting old. Got no place to go. It's all come unwound.

So I'm watching' the faces comin' and goin'
Some of them strangers some that I know and
It doesn't matter how much, how long I wait.
Cause the door's always open and it's never too late.

And I'm thinkin' bout burnin' it down, boys
Thinkin' bout burnin' it down
Nothin's ever gonna be the same in this town
And I'm thinkin' bout burnin' it down, boys
Thinkin' bout burnin' it down
Nothin's ever gonna be the same in this town
I'm thinkin' bout burnin' the Walmart down.
Thinkin' bout burnin' the Walmart down.
I'm thinkin' bout burnin' it down.

Listen Mr. Bilbo – Pete Seeger (not a great version)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wjPykXUG4A

quote:

Listen, Mr. Bilbo, listen to me
I'll give you a lesson in history.
Listen and I'll show you that the foreigners you hate
Are the very same people made America great.

In 1492 just to see what he could see,
Columbus, an Italian, looked out across the sea.
He said, Isabella babe, the world is round,
And the U.S.A.'s just a-waiting to be found.

In 1609 on a bright summer's day,
The Half Moon set anchor in old New York Bay.
Henry Hudson, a Dutchman, took a good look around;
He said, "Boys, this is gonna be a helluva town."

When the King of England started pushing Yankees around,
We had a little trouble up in Boston town.
There was a brave Negro, Crispus Attucks was the man;
Was the first one to fall when the fighting began.

Colin Kelly was a pilot flying down low;
Levine pushed the button that let the bomb go.
They sunk the Haruna to the bottom of the sea;
It was foreigners like those kept America free.

Now Bilbo, you're taking one heck of a chance;
Your good friends, the Duponts, came over from France.
Another thing, I'm sure, will be news to you,
The first Mister Bilbo was a foreigner, too.

Well, you don't like Negroes, you don't like Jews;
If there is anyone you do like, it sure is news.
You don't like Poles, Italians, Catholics, too;
Is it any wonder, Bilbo, that we don't like you!
