De-evolution
De-evolution: sequel to my 1988 tune - Evolution
(A) Look from whence we came
In the days of eighty eight
Violence and gore
On television you were
Forced to appreciate.
(B) To populace came the Internet
New people who'd never met
Friendships crossed the globe
From bedrooms would elope
Illusion (istic or fed) dreams as pedophiles do grope.
(7.41) De-evolution
As the sheep's mind fades to grey
De-evolution
Pulling their own wool down over their eyes.
(C) The overseers do prey
As the suckers hear them say
"We'll take care of your tasks!
Just let your brain relax!" - heh
The Illuminati shall lighten your day.
(D) 2 plus 2 equals - who cares??
As the sheep's flock, stands still and stares
Faith'n'trust'n'greed'n'lust
Appetite, hunger and just
The cupboards of the mind laid bare.
(7.42) De-evolution
The resurrection of the Dark Ages
De-evolution
Burn the witches who raise our wages
De-evolution
As the sheep's mind fades to grey
De-evolution
Pulling their own wool down over their eyes.
(E) they take away our need to think
give us buttons to operate
trans-thought free, we eat and drink
the cellphones cheat, to graduate.
(F) but we've got the time
to end the destruction of our minds
must think for ourselves
exit the circular hells
forged by the kings of mountains
trying to control the mental fountains
dictating what'n'where we say
so they may have their way
stand so steady on your beliefs
boycott them - feed their griefs
and the human race may prosper
instead of only the companies.
(7.43) De-evolution
Continue to change and grow
Re-evolution
Not only companies may know
Revolution
The human race must set the pace
Evolution
The customers always right and the companies are OURS!

This is a superbly written piece and it flows beautifully, keeping the reader wanting more. There are so many things you get the reader thinking about, well done honey, I really do think you are talented and a great addition to the writing world. Well done, I`m looking forward to reading all your work so keep those fingers dancing for us all. Love to you. G xx
Ooops. I'm new here and still learning everything. I replied OUTSIDE of your message. Doh. :o Tis below. :) I'm sorry about that. :o
Respect.
Thank you very kindly G! :D
The original of the two - Evolution - I'd written in very early '89. I was especially disturbed back then, by things that I was seeing on television, that I felt then (age'd 25) could be bad influences for the younger ones, glued to the TV. :o
This one, took something of a look at what has happened since in the almost 20 years since the first one was written. A lot more disturbing. Taking into account, other influences that have happened over the years (including the Internet) and where things have come to be.
Only my personal observations and grumbling, but ...
To get back to where I meant to be replying - thank you for your commentary on the flow of it as well as the feeling of it causing a reader, to wish for more to read. :D That, is a compliment, that I've never had in my ... (age showing again. Haha.) ... 40 years ... of lyrics writing. :o
As well, a warm thank you for feeling that I've talent. (simu-blush). I try not to tell myself that. I just carry on, creating this and that to hopefully please myself at least. If others I do, then that, is a wonderful bonus. :)
Respect. :)
You`re very welcome sweety, I`ve read all your work and enjoyed all of them, so get writing as I want more from you. I meant every word I said about your work, you are very talented so look in the mirror and say my words to yourself every day. Love G xx
I few more posted, more than likely, since you last writ. ;) Varying wildly in subject matter. They aren't always worded as creatively as I so enjoy doing. At times, rushing to get the point out, to be heard. (At almost all times, by only myself.)
I DO appreciate what you've said! But ... with the 'mass' of ego that I maintain deeply inside, letting out as little as possible, gandering into the mirror saying such, wouldn't be the best, I'm afraid. Past minor similarities haven't always had the best outcomes. :( (My last name (legally changed in April 1999) being one of them. :-/
Though, still, appreciated. Thank you. :)
Again, respect.
