From 1988--brilliant writing in what should be the official anthem of TheDonald.win:

Do you see what I see? Truth is an offense

You silence for your confidence

Do you hear what I hear?

Doors are slamming shut

Limit your imagination

Keep you where they must

Do you feel what I feel?

Bittering distress

Who decides what you express?

Do you take what I take?

Endurance is the word

Moving back instead of forward

Seems to me absurd

Doesn't matter what you see

Or into it what you read

You can do it your own way

If it's done just how I say

[Chorus]

Independence limited

Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend

Freedom of speech is words that they will bend

Freedom with their exception

Do you fear what I fear?

Living properly

Truths to you are lies to me

Do you choose what I choose?

More alternatives

Energy derives from both

The plus and negatives

Do you need what I need?

Boundaries overthrown

Look inside, to each his own

Do you trust what I trust?

Me, myself and I

Penetrate the smoke screen

I see through the selfish lie

[Chorus]

Do you know what I know?

Your money and your wealth

You silence just to hear yourself

Do you want what I want?

Desire not a thing

I hunger after independence

Lengthen freedom's ring

Doesn't matter what you see

Or into it what you read

You can do it your own way

If it's done just how I say

Independence limited

Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend

Freedom of speech is words that they will bend

Freedom no longer frees you

Doesn't matter what you see

Or into it what you read

You can do it your own way

If it's done just how I say

("Eye of the Beholder," Metallica, on "...And Justice for All")

I was thinking more like Bulls on Parade.

Pocket full of shells.

That's because pedophiles and human traffickers took over all media and forced the talented people out.

Why do you think movies have all been shit since the 90s? Music was taken over much earlier. It's all human trafficking and money laundering, it's not about the music. And it's global.

K-pop stars are literally high-priced hookers, getting drugged at meetings and dinners with wealthy businessmen who pay big bucks to the record labels for the opportunity.

It was still sorta ok until 2016, Trump's win. Almost everything has become unwatchable and intolerable since then, movies, TV series, music.

It's like a couple dozen at the same time. They're all made on a template.

Crud. That's only comparing back to the eighties. As far as many of us are concerned, music in the eighties sounded like music from 2020 compared to music in the sixties.

..

Which is to say, quality and longevity has lanquished.

As lots of comments here note, what was

Sex (hetero, age appropriate)

Drugs (pot, acid and a little blow)

Rock&Roll (rhythmic love ballads and protest)

Is now

Sex (any way with anyone of any age)

Drugs (Opioids, heroin and adrenochrome)

Rock&Roll (thumpie loveless twerk tunes)

..

Worse... Back in the day...

To get the big break, was to SELL OUT your Artistic Integrity

Today to get the big break, is to SELL YOUR LITERAL SOUL.

I remember when Madonna's "Like a Virgin" came out and it was controversial for its time. Now we have Cardi B and WAP:

I said (hold up), certified freak Seven days a week Wet ass pussy Make that pull-out game weak

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, you fucking with some wet ass pussy Bring a bucket and a mop for this wet ass pussy Give me everything you got for this wet ass pussy

I cringe and I'm glad my daughters are no longer teens that listen to this stuff.
