| radiofreebc User Info... | Cookie Jar (by Jack Johnson): I would turn on the TV but it's so embarassing to see all the other people I don't know what they mean and it was magic at first when they spoke without sound but now this world is gonna hurt you better turn that thing down Turn it around Well it wasn't me say the boy with the gun sure i pulled the trigger but it needed to be done because life's been killin' me ever since it begun you cant blame me cause i'm too young You cant blame me, sure the killer was my son but I didn't teach him to pull the trigger of the gun It's the killing on his TV screen You can't blame me, it's those images he sees You can't blame me says the media man Well I wasn't the one that came up with the plan and I just point my camera what the people wanna see man it's a two way mirror and you can't blame me You can't blame me says the singer of the song or the maker of the movie which he based his life on It's only entertainment and as anyone can see it's smoke machines and make-up, man, you can't fool me It was you it was me it was every man We all got the blood on our hands we only receive what we demand And if we want hell then hell is what well have And I would turn on the TV but it's so embarassing to see all the other people don't even know what they mean and it was magic at first but let every one down Now this world's gonna hurt You better turn it around turn it around. -Jack Johnson ----------------------- Kill your television...just do it. Cover it with a sheet and forget it even exists. Banish it to the basement with all your regrets and your bad memories. Life without TV is just so much better. Just try it...but be careful, you might never go back. You might find yourself picking up a guitar and you might find yourself playing that Jack Johnson song I quoted. Or you might find yourself making up your own song. You'll find that once you get that voice back, that it's a feeling that TV can never give you. We're being drowned out by all the static and by all the white noise. So, let's try it. Let's kill our TV's before they kill us. Spread this letter around, and let's declare every June 29 as a TV-free day. Try it...but I'll warn you that you may enjoy it. Actually, I can almost guarantee you'll totally enjoy it. Tape your shows if you still need to wean yourself off the cathode-ray nipple, but do it....today!!! Whatever you do, don't watch your TV today...and next year, make June 29 a TV-Free Day! For one day a year, stop the static...it's not hard. It's just one day...turn it off. We don't need it. Show your television that you're much better than it wants you to believe you are. ------------------------ "You're blind baby...blind from the fact of who you are cause you're watching that garbage." -Flavor Flav ----------------------- - Wed, 29 Jun 2005 8:08am | ||
