Cannonball

In 1985 the band Supertramp (remember The Logical Song?) released an album called "Brother Where You Bound". It was supposed to be about the fight between Capitalism and Communism. I've already highlighted the lyrics of one of the songs off the album which eerily fits what is going on in America today called "Better Days." Well, the more that the People of  These United States are starting to fight back against the Fascist movement of the Obama Administration,  I am beginning to think that Rick Davies was a prophetic writer that he never imagined back then. The only real single to "make it" was a song called Cannonball (actually a truly great dance song for the time and awesome whenever they performed it live). Yet, the lyrics seem so much more relevant today when it comes to how average Americans feel about the slippery slope the Obama "team" is trying to lead us down, and the promises he made during the election, only to be broken once in office . So, here are those lyrics. You decide:

You're tellin lies, so dont you criticize
Yeah I got used, all messed up and abused
You let me down, with all your runnin round
Still you pretend and try to call me friend
Don't say a word, I know just what I heard
Yeah you've been loose, you just go no excuse
Just feel my rage, why can't you come of age? 
I felt it all, just like a cannonball
Then you got mad, you said that I'm all bad
So whats the use, you lied and thats the truth
You took the key and drove right out on me
I never knew, put all my trust in you
Ok that's it, I'm leaving now,
I quit I was unwise, so don't apologize
I paid the price, for taking your advice
I felt it all, just like a cannonball
You can say what you want all day
But I've never been so outraged
I'm washing my hands of you
How could you be so untrue
You know I can't stand no more
You know I can't stand no more .
