Halliburton Dream, to be bathed in Gasoline
Need To Know
To the tune of: Karn Evil 9 (1st Impression Pt. 2) – Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Grab your ankles bend, say you’re safer, yeah pretend
On your ignorance depend,
What’s to hide, what’s to hide
Rights are left behind, liberty we will define
And independent mind,
Will be gone, will be gone

What’s to hide, intrusion a la carte
Rest assured, your name is on a chart
We’ve procured your knowledge and your worth
Why scream now, we’ve done it since your birth

We gotta need to know, Everything you know
We gotta need to know, And so we troll Oh.....

Out the window flies every right under the guise
It will stop the falling skies,
Close your eyes, close your eyes

What’s to hide, intrusion a la carte
Rest assured, your name is on a chart
We gotta need to know, Everything you know
We gotta need to know, And so we troll

Kanagaroos convene, we have ways in which to glean
Everything you’ve done and seen
You’ll come clean, you’ll come clean
There upon the stand, your confession in your hand
In a gulag’s where you’ll land
Aint it grand, ain’t it grand

Fess up! Fess up! Fess up!
Need to know

Punishment’s the rule, be it inhumane or cruel
On a good day you’ll get gruel
Little fool, little fool
So just be good worker drone, or in secret you’ll be flown
To a nightmare all your own
All alone all alone

Gotta need to know
Gotta need to know
Gotta need to know

Need to know

21. For folks like me who never remember songs very well:

Good parody and good, shudder-inducing poetry on it's own. I give it three thumbs up (and I only have two thumbs, so that's somethin'!).

Edited on Sun Jul-20-08 02:15 PM by SalmonChantedEvening
You are inspiration itself darling lady. I am honored to call you friend. :loveya:

The words were few and far between this spring and I was feeling repetitive, but Ive come to the conclusion it's not just me. Much of what is being done, what I see and write about, are the same crimes by the same people. Over and Over, Worse and Worse. Were it not for DU I'd see less, and more than likely, say nothing.

Knowledge and wonderful people = This excellent place.
