No cannonballs did fly
No rifles cut us down
No bombs fell from the sky
No blood soaked the ground
No powder flash blinded the eye
No deafening thunder sounded
But just as sure as the hand of god
They brought death to my hometown
They brought death to my hometown
No shells ripped the evening sky
No cities burning down
No armies stormed the shores for which we’d die
No dictators were crowned
High off on a quiet night
I never heard a sound
The marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
Death to my hometown
They destroyed our families’ factories and they took our homes
They left our bodies on the plains
The vultures picked our bones
So listen up, my Sonny boy
Be ready for when they come
For they’ll be returning sure as the rising sun
Now get yourself a song to sing and sing it ’til you’re done
Yeah, sing it hard and sing it well
Send the robber baron’s straight to hell
The greedy thieves that came around
And ate the flesh of everything they’ve found
Whose crimes have gone unpunished now
Walk the streets as free men now
And they brought death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown
No rifles cut us down
No bombs fell from the sky
No blood soaked the ground
No powder flash blinded the eye
No deafening thunder sounded
But just as sure as the hand of god
They brought death to my hometown
They brought death to my hometown
No shells ripped the evening sky
No cities burning down
No armies stormed the shores for which we’d die
No dictators were crowned
High off on a quiet night
I never heard a sound
The marauders raided in the dark and brought death to my hometown, boys
Death to my hometown
They destroyed our families’ factories and they took our homes
They left our bodies on the plains
The vultures picked our bones
So listen up, my Sonny boy
Be ready for when they come
For they’ll be returning sure as the rising sun
Now get yourself a song to sing and sing it ’til you’re done
Yeah, sing it hard and sing it well
Send the robber baron’s straight to hell
The greedy thieves that came around
And ate the flesh of everything they’ve found
Whose crimes have gone unpunished now
Walk the streets as free men now
And they brought death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown, boys
Death to our hometown
LOL But yet he supports politicians and policies that tax the hell out of the hardworking man.
LOl Hey Bruce hows that hope and change working for him. I have never been a fan of his lame ass music. When I noticed that he supported the loons I for sure don't like him.
BTW going to the concert when he come to Detroit. Wife loves his music.
:think2:
he is not saying he doesnt like it, he is stating its lame because he doesnt like his politics (Among other things)
the guy doesnt 'have a couple good songs' , to start with he has been inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame, people that are in there dont have 'a couple good songs'
bottom line, if you mix politics with an opinion about arts etc .....THAT is lame
No I said I don't like his lame ass music. I didn't like even when I didn't know he was a flaming liberal. I don't feel like spending big bucks and thenhave to listen to his stupid rambling liberal rants. Or go to a concert and be told not to make noise while he performs. What a douchebag this guy is.
HE SUCKS
Example of what you are doing
The Mona Lisa sucks, its a lame ass painting. (for people that know about art its ridiculous)
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, whether or not that opinion has any weight or an iota of knowledge into it, thats a different thing.
As to your new rant on making noise while someone performs, I dont know , I guess if "I am paying big bucks to go to a concert" I want to listen to the concert instead of the guy next to me?
You are making zero sense here
What RS is saying is Springstupid BEGGED for what he is getting and now writes a song about how bad it is...RS didnt bring politics into this convo Springstupid did.
Springstupid can shove his "speedball" right up his ass for my part . Instead of writing a song about how stupid he was in 08 why doesnt he do a "I apoligize for talking about shit and asking my fans to support shit that i knew nothing about".. Sorry bastard.

disagree yet again, Chicago had two phases, I liked both, admittedly I am more fond of their 'pop/soft rock' phase as I grew up with it versus the 'big band part' that they had until Terry Kath died
On the Hall & Oates I am not that much of a fan
BUT , guess what...you are wrong....... , neither are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame , you are talking about a different thing , I am talking about the one that is in Ohio go here www.rockhall.com
I imagine you are talking about this one (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductees_of_the_Songwriters_Hall_of_Fame) but who knows
i'm talking about the rock and roll hall of fame.. in cleveland, i believe. how does that make me wrong ? i said they werent in and they arent.
i didnt know you werent a fan of hall & oates.. i stand corrected then. they dont belong in . even though they are the most successful duo in pop/rock history..
