Mighty Wah - Story Of The Blues слова песни




FROM:DANH@VMS.HUJI.AC.IL (RAMI)Below are the words of the speech made by Pete Wylie at the end of the 12" version of The Mighty Wah`s undeservedly forgetable "The Story of the Blues" , which i transcripted by listening to a home-tape recording of the song - the result of which is a few question-marks and maybe a few mistakes , anyone who wishes to make a comment is welcome (address above)."Our hearts are breaking,one more song to go" (Faded Flowers - Shriekback)".......well that`s my story and i`ll stick into that,let`s have another drink and let`s talk about the blues,blues is about dignity,it`s about self-respect,and no matter what they take away from you - that`s yours for keeps,i remember how it was,how every medium - T.V. and papers and radio and all those people were saying:`you`re on the scrap-heep,you`re useless`,i remember how easy it was to start believe in that,i remember how you`d hear people take it for granted that it was true - just `cause someone with an `outer power` said so.And that`s a problem now,too many out-balls(?),too many pocketbook psychologists and would-be philosophers with an axe to grind, but there`s a solution,it`s not easy,but it`s a matter of commitment(??) in your heart,the situation you`re in,a matter of choosing how things go for you and not having things forced upon you,there are plenty of forces against you,forcing you against your will,your ideals - you`ve got to hope for the best,and that`s the best you can hope for - you`ve got to hope against hope...I remember something Sal Paradise said,he said:`the city intellectuals of the world are divided from the folk body blood-of-the-land and are just ruthless(?) fools`So listen,when the smile,the condescending pat-on-the-back comes and says: `we`re sorry,but you`re nothing,you`ve got nothing for us and we`ve got nothing for you`,you say:`no`,and say it loud:"NO!",remember,people who talk about revolution and a class-struggle without refering explicitly to everyday life,without understanding what is subversive about law,and what is positive in the refusal and constraint...since people have a core to their hearts(?)..."Halleluyah and Farewell,The Mighty Ram.
