What's So Funny . . .

. . . (to paraphrase Nick Lowe) about facts, good sense and understanding . . .


(from Outsider in the White House by Bernie Sanders with Huck Gutman)
". . . The problem . . . is that groups representing the wealthiest people in this country are able to decisively influence the legislative process so that public policy reflects the interest of the privileged few and not the needs of the general population.  And if you don't understand this simple fact, you haven't a clue as to what politics in America is all about. . .

Catch . . .

She said it was almost time 

For me to go

I said I was feeling fine 

And waxing so poetic

I was the silver-tongued devil

At least in my own eyes

How I lied

Oh how I tried

I want to catch the brass ring

Before it passes me by

I want to catch the brass ring

It's something that I just

Have to try

Please don't ask me why

I said I'm not gonna whine

Because I know

About the way they operate

And where they go for breakfast

In this exclusive and privileged world

You will find me

Sometime soon

Sometime soon

I want to catch the brass ring

Before it passes me by

I want to catch the brass ring

It's something that I just

Have to try

Please don't ask me why

Would you ask a child 

What he likes about candy

Would you ask a dog not to bite

Would you ask the sun not to shine

Or the stars not to 

Twinkle from their heights

Everybody's not the same

You ought to know

Whether they strictly be mundane

Are they the life of the party

In the confusion 

I'm easily forced to my corner

Of the room

In the gloom

I want to catch the brass ring

Before it passes me by

I want to catch the brass ring

It's something that I just

Have to try

Please don't ask me why
