What are you listening to?

Pink Floyd is one of my late life discoveries mostly thanks to the Cs. They just seem to have that something that catches/appeals to many generations maybe?

Session 16 July 2009:

My childhood was rocked by the Pink Floyd that my parents listened to over and over again. And my desire to hear them again came after having read, like you did, what the C's and Laura had to say about this mythical group. I love it so much! They have good taste the C's.😊
 
Ok, first my statement of disclaimer, ESPECIALLY for a few others on the Forum, perhaps a bit "Older", the members from my general age group,(cough...Boomers):cool2: with, shall we say, more refined tastes in music? :whistle:

It is a Rap video...:scared:

I've posted The lyrics below the video, but try to watch the video, as it has some interesting and intelligently placed images as well, in my opinion.
I found his choice of using a TV News Room set a brilliant choice, and watch as the Lady Newscaster slowly starts to come out of Cognitive Dissonance...

"In “People So Stupid,” Tom MacDonald gives his unfiltered opinions on a variety of sensitive topics including racism, sexism, abortion, homophobia, and cancel culture. In a tweet promoting the music video, MacDonald stated that it’s about “our toxic social climate.”"

I'm prayin' that the world changes soon
Can't get a doobie on a plane, but there's Uzis in our schools
Every dude who touched a boob or a booty gettin' MeToo'd
What you expect from the kids who went to Hooters after school?
We're all triggered and defensive, we're all racist and we're sexist
We all grew up watching South Park, how are we offended?
Now being fat is beautiful? Name a thing that you can't do?
Jumping jacks, run a mile, live past 42
Man, it used to be cool to just flip a bird to the system
And now it's trendy to be triggered and pretend you're a victim
"It's my race, it's my weight, it's because I'm a Christian!
I hate the internet and anyone who has an opinion!"
And everybody angry if you say "white," 'kay fine
Pass me the brush and I'll paint my face 'til the shade's right
Let's talk about abortion, sorry, tell me how this works
Bacteria is life on Mars, but a heartbeat isn't life on Earth? Weird

[Chorus]
People are so stupid, why are y'all so stupid?
Get better problems, I swear to God that y'all want 'em, y'all so dumb
People so stupid, people so dumb, people so boo-hoo, wah-wah-wah
Get better issues, we're gonna run out of tissues, it's so dumb
[Verse 2]
I'm a hater 'cause I can't relate to gay pride?
Call me homophobic because I don't wanna date guys? 'Kay, tight
I, for one, am not surprised the world declined along the way
Give trophies to children for losin' just 'cause they decide to play
We exercise our right to vote then hate the politicians, ayy
This is a democracy, it's partly your decision, ayy
This is weird, feels like this is a different year
If I identify as a female, then will my balls and penis disappear?
Children want a gender switch and hating men is feminist
Depression and anxiety are trendy, we're too sensitive
Invented 80 genders, mad the world is not accepting it
They give them more attention than normal women and men can get
What a contradiction, bein' human is so tragic
Focused on minorities, ignoring all the masses
Hallelujah, everyone, activism saved the planet
No more plastic straws in paper, just paper straws wrapped in plastic, congratulations

[Chorus]
People are so stupid, why are y'all so stupid?
Get better problems, I swear to God that y'all want 'em, y'all so dumb
People so stupid, people so dumb, people so boo-hoo, wah-wah-wah
Get better issues, we're gonna run out of tissues, it's so dumb

[Bridge]
Look, I get it, it's like the world is goin' crazy
Seems like a school shooting happens almost daily
The racism, rape culture, hatred that we're facing
Is way too ingrained for our hashtags to change it
We've become so lazy and complacent, afraid of our generation
We think activism's Instagramming memes and complaining
It's a problem when there's actually actions you could be taking
But you're triggered so you just cry like a baby

[Chorus]
People are so stupid, why are y'all so stupid?
Get better problems, I swear to God that y'all want 'em, y'all so dumb
People so stupid, people so dumb, people so boo-hoo, wah-wah-wah
Get better issues, we're gonna run out of tissues, it's so dumb
 
She said: "hello mister, pleased to meet ya" I want to hold her, I want to kiss her, She smell of daisies, She smell of daisies, She drive me crazy, She drive me crazy Gonna take her for a ride on a big jet plane (X3) Yeah, hey
 

Lyrics :cool2:

Take aim boys but be sure that it's true. Every man must learn to stand square in the cross-hairs of truth.
Today will be a day you shall remember for all of your lives. All bets are off, your debts are forgiven tonight.
Our best messenger was sent but, alas, he was hit taking word up to the front lines
as he was trying to save the world one soul at a time.
With our surest foot forward we ushered in our last golden age,
shoulder to shoulder and onward into the fray. With a tip of your hat was it as easy as that to resign?
You thought no one believed in the dream you'd fought so hard to find.
It was slow-going work but it was work nonetheless though it paid us in nickels and dimes
as we were trying to save the world one soul at a time.
You can't believe everything that proceeds from the mouths of men.
Cause history's pages are penned by the winning team's hand. In idealistic ditches we dug ourselves in for the fight.
We lit fires of faith that burned with God's furious light. We were soldiers-for-hire but we knew not to fire till we'd seen the whites of their lies
as we were trying to save the world one soul at a time.
