David Bowie Fantastic Voyage

From his 1979 album Lodger

Lyrics:

In the event that this fantastic voyage
Should turn to erosion and we never get old
Remember it's true, dignity is valuable
But our lives are valuable too

We're learning to live with somebody's depression
And I don't want to live with somebody's depression
We'll get by, I suppose
It's a very modern world, but nobody's perfect
It's a moving world, but that's no reason
Shoot some of those missiles
Think of us as fatherless scum
It won't be forgotten
'Cause we'll never say anything nice again, will we?

And the wrong words make you listen
In this criminal world
Remember it's true, loyalty is valuable
But our lives are valuable too

We're learning to live with somebody's depression
And I don't want to live with somebody's depression
We'll get by I suppose
But any sudden movement I've got to write it down
They wipe out an entire race and I've got to write it
down
But I'm still getting educated but I've got to write it down
And it won't be forgotten
'Cause I'll never say anything nice again, how can I?

@AffirmedConclusion Those numbers were only the product of Saddam Hussein's propaganda. Yet when Pres. Bush moved against Saddam, these same phony leftists went nuts. Talk about hypocrisy.

[AffirmedConclusion]

IN CHINA songs about mung beans are common, so common, too common, enough so and more...We fill our American hippies with mung & soy. It's not likely that local avalanches pose viable threats to my wonderful family. [Once the gas flames penetrate the box the flesh is insulted. This puts me in the mood for hot, alien loving...]
