    I love his music, but I find it ironic that the song was written by a man who later heartily endorsed the fatwa or "approved hit" on salman rushdie, & all he did was write a book. What an @$$hole.

    yeah, avishi that's true but the cats work stands - just like "the moors last sigh"* would if the author suddenly turned into an ax weilding Jehovahs hillbilly.

    *by Salman Rushdi.

    Hi Avi

    yes, its a real shame he got caught up in the religion stuff. I read about the Rushdie story, it seems Cat claims he was "tricked" into saying what he did and in any case deeply regrets it now. Well whatever, but one thing I did find interesting is the amount of work he does building hospitals and such for children, OK, Muslim children, but at the least it seems he puts his money where his mouth is....thats more than can be said about a lot of people......

    And Unc, please be careful and not use the Lord Bob's name in vain !! And hey!! everyone knows Ya Gotta Serve Somebody!! You may call me Popee or you may call me Pimmy but Ya gotta serve somebody! May be the Devil or it may be the Lord ........................

    (Slow Train Coming is a pretty good record......)

    Unc,

    You should experience me perform this on mic in yahoo JW CHAT; among many other 'theme songs' that tell the tale of The sKallywagger...(referring to FATHER AND SON).

    Pope, much obliged for bringing up the Peace Train, yet again.

    And now, for your pleasure, yet I'm sure this is not the type of pleasure you were hoping for UNC! :

    Here, too you will find an audio feature to indulge even further.

    Isn't life grand? Music is all we really have left at this point in time...to share and reflect. Much of what I kareoke there is strictly music and lyrics that go deep to the core and deep within the chambers of my anger.

    And ohhhhhh, what a relief (release) it is. Should come someday and have a sit-down. It's great support network too. Not to mention we obliterate any jw that even tries to puke WT PROPOGANDA to innocent, meek folk. We simply don't stand for it. I soley possess the key to the 'TROLLFOOD CUPBOARD' too. I try to starve them as soon as they try to gorge. hahahaha, it's a hoot to WITNESS! ROFLOL

    And 'predators'? Ha!! They are easy to spot and 'kill'! And they are just that...'killed'. We send them to the 'killfiles' (covert activity in progress) and then keep a keen eye on 'them'. And keep in close mind, 'predators' 'prey' in many different ways. Not just for sex. Many prey on vulnerable jw and recent exjw or inactive jw women in this chat room at yahoo. It is very easy to spot such predators for a few of us. We deal with them accordingly...by demolishing their online bullbucky, then warning the predator that we are determined to help the one being preyed on to build up her defense mechanisms. We teach them how to spot their own vulnerabilities so as to be able to know when someone is trying to cross that boundary. To be able to not be dependant on someone else building you up. You must learn how to do this all by yourSELF. It's exhaustive, yet CAN be achieved. Soon, you learn, intuitively how to 'defend' your boundaries and feel good about saying no instead of feeling dread.

    Well, take good care now you two gentlemen. And I really love that hat!

    Pardon me, no audio feature. Just lyrics in different languages.

    Cat Stevens - Father & Son

    It's not time to make a change
    Just relax, take it easy
    You're still young, that's your fault
    There's so much you have to know
    Find a girl, settle down
    If you want you can marry
    Look at me, I am old but I'm happy

    I was once like you are now
    And I know that it's not easy
    To be calm when you've found something going on
    But take your time, think a lot
    Think of everything you've got
    For you will still be here tomorrow
    But your dreams may not

    How can I try to explain
    When I do he turns away again
    And it's always been the same, same old story
    From the moment I could talk
    I was ordered to listen
    Now there's a way and I know
    That I have to go away
    I know I have to go

    It's not time to make a change
    Just sit down and take it slowly
    You're still young that's your fault
    There's so much you have to go through
    Find a girl, settle down
    If you want you can marry
    Look at me, I am old but I'm happy

    All the times that I've cried
    Keeping all the things I know inside
    And it's hard, but it's harder to ignore It
    If they were right I'd agree
    But it's them they know not me
    Now there's a way and I know
    That I have to go away
    I know I have to go Zurück zur Übersicht Liedertexte
