Every thing's gonna be All Right!

 


As to the title, I certainly hope so.

 OK, for all you youngsters out there (yeah, you Tuna,  you also Beans), you might not have heard this song when it first came out.  Sarge and I did. Been a while though.  

And...unfortunately two of the band are playing music in the great beyond.  The two survivors are in their mid-80's.  But...I still enjoy their music.

 Given the circumstances of November 3,  especially in Texas as it directly affects my Family and I, I thought this song might be a bit apropos and hopefully true. 

Aah!

You say you want a revolution, well, you know
We all wanna change the world
You tell me that it's evolution, well, you know
We all wanna change the world

But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out?

Don't you know it's gonna be alright?
Alright
Alright

You say you got a real solution, well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution, well, you know
We're all doin' what we can

But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is, brother, you have to wait
 
Don't you know it's gonna be alright?
Alright
Alright

You say you'll change the constitution, well, you know
We all wanna change your head
You tell me it's the institution, well, you know
You better free your mind instead

But if you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow

[Chorus]
Don't you know it's gonna be
Alright
Alright
Alright

Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright
Alright, alright!
 
 
Just in case you want to listen to the song. Here you go.

    Just a thought. In the age of political violence is it a good idea to paste bumper stickers on your car to ID yourself as of "that" faction?

    Even in my little town we've been having "Impeach Trump" and such rallies.

    Looking at the radical hair color haired folks and their rainbow flags right next to their big American Flags and chants is odd for a quiet NE town.

      Michael,
      I don't know that that's a good idea. Just in case the folks that don't agree decide to take action.

      They definitely do, and their lefty TDS emboldens them to do stuff like key my wife's car down the whole side facing the sidewalk when I had a Trump sign in my yard.

      I must have been unclear. I was saying NOT having a target bumper sticker on your car.

      But I was ugly enough one time to put a Trump sticker on an annoying Black Clad fellow's car at a rally.

      They beat it up so bad it needed towing away :-) I wonder how that fellow felt his car getting his buddies attention.

    Pretty heavy handed vote counting down there Juvat. If there's medicare fraud, food stamp fraud, child care fraud, hospice care fraud, I'm sure voter fraud is just as likely.

      Yeah, there was a LARGE input of folks registering to vote in the last few weeks before the election. Extremely large, almost as if sevral 10's of thousands were brought in. But that's not legal is it?
      Silly me, that's only illegal if Republicans do it.

      CC,
      No I think there are an awful lot of people who are very pissed off at the result. We shall see what will happen in the near future. Fortunately we've got Trump in the White House until '29.

    There is at least one version of this song that goes like this:
    But when you talk about destruction
    Don't you know that you can count me out? IN!

    Marketing to both sides I guess.
