Fugazi - Promises
    #4682654 -

words
words and expressions
all these confessions
of where we stand
how i see you
and you see me
dedications of symmetry
together
we will be
forever

promises are shit!
we speak the way we breathe
present air will have to do
rearrange and see it through
stupid fucking words!
they tangle us in our desires
free me from this give and take!
free me from this great debate!

there were no truer words than when spoken
let that stand as it should
there was nothing left when broken
we grab anything when we fall!

promises are shit!
we speak the way we breathe
present air will have to do
rearrange and see us through
stupid fucking words!
they tangle us in our desires
free me from this give and take!
free me from this great debate!

you will do what you do
and I will do what I do
and we will do what we do
rearrange and see it through
you will do what you do
and I will do what I do
and we will do what we do
rearrange and see it through
rearrange

go where you think you want us to go
do everything you were sent here for
fire at will if you hear that call
touch your hand to the wall at night
go where you think you want us to go
do everything you were sent here for
fire at will if you hear that call
touch your hand to the wall at night

promises! promises! promises! words!
promises! promises! promises! words!
promises! promises! promises! words!
promises! promises! promises! words!

But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

Fugazi is the shit! I grew up listening to them and many others like them. I really dig what Ian Mackay has done with them.\


"Suggestion"

Why can't i walk down a street free of suggestion?
Is my body the only trait in the eye's of men?
I've got some skin
You want to look in
There lays no reward in what you discover
You spent yourself watching me suffer
Suffer you words, suffer your eyes, suffer your hands
Suffer your interpretation of what it is to be a man
I've got some skin
You want to look in
She does nothing to deserve it
He only wants to observe it
We sit back like they taught us
We keep quiet like they taught us
He just wants to prove it
She does nothing to remove it
We don't want anyone to mind us
So we play the roles that they assigned us
She does nothing to conceal it
He touches her 'cause he wants to feel it
We blame her for being there
But we are all guilty

It is my favorite tune by them. Coming in at a closi second is...
"Repeater"

You say I need a job,
I've got my own business
You want to know what i do?
None of your fucking business
But now I'm lying here
Knowing that business had a name,
But now I'm a number
1 2 3 repeater
Down by law, I've got this nasty habit
When I need something I reach out and grab it
Once upon a time I had a name and a way
But to you I'm nothing but a number
1 2 3 repeater
Did you hear something outside?
It sounded like a gun
Stay away from that window boy
It's not anyone we know
Only about ourselves and what we read in the paper
Don't you know ink washes out easier than blood
But we don't have to try it
And we don't have to buy it
Repeater
