Deja Vu (All Over Again)



Artist: John Fogerty

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Did you try to read the writing on the wall
Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again

Day by day I hear the voices rising
Started with a whisper like it did before
Day by day we count the dead and dying
Ship the bodies home while the networks all keep score

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Could your eyes believe the writing on the wall
Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again

One by one I see the old ghosts rising
Stumblin' 'cross Big Muddy
Where the light gets dim
Day after day another Momma's crying
She's lost her precious child
To a war that has no end

Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio
Did you stop to read the writing at The Wall
Did that voice inside you say
I've seen this all before
It's like Deja Vu all over again
It's like Deja Vu all over again

Creedence Clearwater Revival

Sinister Purpose

When the sky is gray
And the moon is hate
I'll be down to get you.
Roots of earth will shake.

CHORUS:

Sinister Purpose
Knocking at your door;
Come and take my hand.

Burn away the goodness;
You and I remain.
Did you see the last war?
Well, here I am again.

CHORUS

I can set you free,
Make you rich and wise.
We can live forever;
Look into my eyes.

CHORUS

Mm-mm-mm-mm....

1. If I would have to pick an overall favorite band it would be CCR

2. This is what reminded me and I heard "Déjà Vu" being sung.

That song seemed perfect for today too. :-(

I forgot how much I've enjoyed their music. Glad I caught this show on PBS!
