from Oannes *

Από το ομώνυμο άλμπουμ του Morrissey, κυκλοφορημένο εννέα χρόνια πριν. Δεν χρειάζεται να επαναλάβω την αδυναμία μου σ’ αυτό τον άνθρωπο, ούτε τους λόγους για τους οποίους την έχω.
Μια παρατήρηση μόνο σε ένα απ’ τους στίχους : Ψηφίσεις δεν ψηφίσεις, η διαδικασία είναι “αυτοϋποστηριζόμενη”.

✽

The title track from the album Morissey released nine years ago. I don’t need to talk again about my affinity for this person, nor the reasons why I have it.
Just a note on one of the lines : Vote or no vote, the process is “self supported”.

❝ World peace is none of your business
You must not tamper with arrangements
Work hard and sweetly pay your taxes
Never asking what for
Oh oh, you poor little fool
Oh oh, you fool
World peace is none of your business
Police will stun you with their stun guns
Or they’ll disable you with tasers
That’s what Government’s for
Oh oh, you poor little fool
Oh oh, you fool
World peace is none of your business
So would you, kindly keep your nose out
The rich must profit and get richer
And the poor must stay poor
Oh oh, you poor little fool
Oh oh, you fool
Each time you vote, you support the process
Each time you vote, you support the process
Each time you vote, you support the process
Brazil, Bahrain, Egypt, Ukraine
So many people in pain
No more you poor little fools
No more you fool ❞

Enjoy!
