ESmoist ::: Favorites Good video, but the music is a little too overpowering. 07-08-30 13:14:16 __________________________________________________
murcury ::: Favorites </I>How about an honorable bargain? "You always wanted to become a doctor. Now's your chance. Why, you could have become a great healer and benefit humanity. What's wrong with that?" Just about everything. There are no honorable bargains involving exchange of qualitative merchandise like souls. Just quantitative merchandise like time and money. So piss off, Satan, and don't take me for dumber than I look. As an old junk pusher told me, "Watch whose money you pick up."</I> 07-08-22 00:54:38 __________________________________________________
murcury ::: Favorites The other version has 3 additional stanzas: <i> Avoid fuckups. You all know the type. Anything they have anything to do with, no matter how good it sounds, turns into a disaster. Do not offer sympathy to the mentally ill. Tell them firmly, "I am not paid to listen to this drivel. You are a terminal fool." </i> 07-08-22 00:53:48 __________________________________________________
trouduc00 ::: Favorites the original music is Red Baron by Billy Cobham. Mike Franti had the genius of mixing it with Burroughs words. Thanx for uploading 07-07-23 05:22:43 __________________________________________________

BaronSCameron ::: Favorites I have 2 versions of the piece. The words are essentially the same but the music differs from each. I'll give the other one a listen and if it is considerably different I'll let you know. If you like, I'll post them somewhere you can download them. 07-07-08 07:06:17 __________________________________________________
