¼ö¿äÀÏ ¿ÀÈÄ / wed afternoon: w/ the amerikan military's uanacceptable n' inappropriate torture of iraqi prisoners of war n' the recent retaliatory murder of an amerikan civilian in iraq, i'm even more sure that we have 'nother vietnam war here, just w/o all the sicko stories of stds (sexually transmitted diseases).

"for what it's worth"
stephen stills, 1966

there's something happening here
what it is ain't exactly clear
there's a man with a gun over there
telling me i got to beware

think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down

there's battle lines being drawn
nNobody's right if everybody's wrong
young people speaking their minds
getting so much resistance from behind

i think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down

what a field-day for the heat
a thousand people in the street
singing songs and carrying signs
mostly say, hooray for our side

it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down

paranoia strikes deep
into your life it will creep
it starts when you're always afraid
you step out of line, the man come and take you away

we better stop, hey, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down
stop, hey, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down
stop, now, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down
stop, children, what's that sound
everybody look what's going down

the candy skins did a decent cover'f this song in the early 1990s.   sure, our current war differs from vietnam w/ the lack'f selektive service.
