Me or Him |
| You wake up in the morning, get something for the pot |
| Wonder why the sun makes the rocks feel hot |
| Draw on the walls, eat, get laid |
| Back in the good old days |
| Then, some damn fool invents the wheel |
| Listen to the whitewalls squeal |
| You spend all day looking for a parking spot |
| Nothing for the heart, nothing for the pot |
| Benny turned the dial on his shortwave radio |
| Oh, how he wanted to talk to the people |
| He wanted his own show |
| Tune in Moscow, Tune in New York |
| Listen to the Welsh kid talk |
| Communicating like in the good old days |
| Forgive me father, for I have sinned |
| It was either me or him |
| And a voice said |
| «Benny, you fucked the whole thing up |
| Benny, your time is up» (your time is up) |
| Benny turned the dial on his shortwave radio |
| He wanted to talk to the people |
| He wanted his own show |
| Tune in Moscow, Tune in New York |
| Listen to the Welsh kid talk |
| Communicating like in the good old days |
| The good old days |
| «Forgive me Father („Mobile One Two to Central) |
| For I have sinned (We have a multiple on the A465 between Cwmbran and Cylgoch) |
| Father, it was either me or him |
| Father, can we turn back the clock? |
| (Ambulance, over) |
| I never meant to drop the concrete block!“ (Roger central, over and out») |
| Benny turned the dial on his shortwave radio |
| Oh, how he wanted to talk to the people |
| He wanted his own show |
| Tune in Moscow, Tune in New York |
| Listen to the Welsh kid talk |
| Just like in the good old days |
| The good old days |
| «Do you really think Iranian terrorists would have taken Americans hostage if |
| Ronald Reagan were president? |
| Do you really think the Russians would have invaded Afghanistan if Ronald |
| Reagan were president? |
| Do you really think third-rate military dictators would laugh at America, |
| and burn our flag in contempt, if Ronald Reagan were president?» |
| «Well, it might work! |
| („We as a group do most importantly want to beseech… |
| ) Sure! |
| (…President Reagan and our fellow Americans to refrain from any form |
| of…) Only, it’s going to be mighty dangerous for you, Cassidy!“ |
| (…military or violent means as an attempt, no matter how noble or heroic…) |
| „Guess you don’t know Hopalong Cassidy, mister! |
| Adventure’s his bread, |
| excitement’s his butter (…to secure our freedom“) |
| And danger, why to him that’s like strawberry jam to top it off!» |
