Olympics

Hi.

This is episode 16 of One Weekly Gun.

It’s really beginning to take form this project. 16 smashing songs are already on the page. If this is your first time here, go check out all the other posts and songs here. Don’t forget to comment if you are happy, angry og something else.

These last few weeks there has been a lot of discussion about China and the Olympics 2008. Therefore I thought it was time to cover the mess in music. Also check out the song about Dalai Lama a few weeks back.

It became a very angry and hostile song - towards China. It’s important for me to say, that I haven’t got anything against the chinese people og culture. Only the governments bizzarre and childish behaviour.

The song deals also with the apathic and cooperative nature of the western region.

We Will Happily Sedate You

We will happily sedate you.
Just sit back, enjoy the scene.
We’ll show you, that there’s nothing we can’t do.
We are a proud machine.

Here there are noone to complain to.
We don’t think much of human lifes.
We know we are the best – compared to the west.
You don’t seem to mind.

We just want everyone to start to think about us
as the new potential, as someone special.
We hold the ancient traditions and history in our soul.
That’s right soul – we’ve got one.

Excuse me Sir - my weak bladder.
I think, I will have to pee your pants.
Your smile won’t leave, when I sneeze in your sleave.
That’s what I like about you.

One on one we are not powerful.
But our weapons are in the bank.
Think of your export, before you draw your sword.
Don’t forget who to thank.

Why the hell should I set free, the ones who criticized me.
I know what’s best for us in the new west.
So swallow your tactics and tell me what you see.
Just don’t look back. The future is at our feet.

Week 15   Clinton and Obama, once again...

Hey Friends One Weekly Gun is back.

For the first time - I was delayed. :-(
2 days.
But I have a good reason.
I got married saturday, so I had things to do.

This weekend has been all about love, which also affected the weekly musical outcome.
Obama and Clinton are meeting tonight - in battle. Probably the last big debate between the two. Next week, much will be clearer. The campaigns have been increasingly childish and harsh these last couple of weeks. And I began wondering about their private relationship - the correspondances, that doesn’t reach the media.

It’s a love duet - I sing it myself.
But maybe my wife will do the Clinton part someday.

Feel free to demand her on to the stage.

Drive Your Wagon

I don’t feel allright, I just wanna let go.
Well you can’t let go, cause I told you so.
If it’s really that bad, I don’t need a reason.
You go on, and I’ll leave you alone.

I just wanna relax and play Hits in the Car.
And I nearly forgot how to hold my guitar.
Honey, spare your voice, you don’t know what you’re saying.
Keep coming back, and It’ll all go away.

Drive, drive your wagon, drive it slowly.
It will all go away.
Shut your brain and eat no bad food.
It will all go away.

Meet me on the other side.

In the midst of things, I am thinking of you.
All I know, is we are meant to be two.
For a moment there, I think, I was sleeping.
In the dream, I was falling for you.

Go away, young man, let a woman pass through.
I am nowhere near, let me hang on to
your will and charms. That’s all I am seeing.
Kill this now, I want only the come.

Drive, drive your wagon, drive it slowly.
It will all go away.
Shut your brain and eat no bad food.
It will all go away.

Meet me on the other side.
