Week 38 – 7 things I hate

Segregation on bus in Israel

This is old news for once.

But apparently orthodox jews are still demanding, that bus companies introduce kosher buslines, where men and women are segregated. In lack of understanding, orthodox communities are now on the mission to finance the bus lines themselves.

Come on!

Instead of jumping up and down on the obvious point here, I will instead digress to a more abtract level of this discussion. I see these everyday moments of annoyance as symbols of a much more terrifying reality.

Some of us are brought up in hatred and learn to hate and fight equal rights from childhood. If you’re told one thing your whole life, you belive it. I not talking about orthodox jews here, but all who are part of an isolated and somewhat extreme community. If no interaction with other beliefs are happening, some of us are stuck in middel age reality.

This week’s song is about hating every day.

There must be at least seven things I hate
Forget the wiser choice
Compile the rage
There must be at least one thing a day
It keeps me going in a credible way

There must be at least 7 things I hate
I must hate at least once a day

I just read the news today
And there were 50 things, I’d love to hate
When read from backwards it would say
That nothing comes from nothing in any way

There must be at least 7 things I hate
I must hate at least once a day

There must be at least 7 things I hate
I must hate at least once a day

Freedom is for some the most controversial thing
And it burns the heart whenever it is clinched
Flames applies for some as their Martin Luther King
And you gotta count your 7 things

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.
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.
