SO THEY CAN BLAST AGAIN / THE DOVE IS KILLIN EVERYONE

I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore Cologne, to get the feeling right
We started making out, and she took off her pants
But then bomb blast behind me

And that's about the time they made a ghost of me
Indians shouldn't take their lives so seriously.. Wat
ever happened to national security
Compassion is hypocrisy
And they say i should take it chill
So they can blast again
So they can blast again

Then later on, they wanna try phone
They called a mob, from a paid phone
The f****in circuit closed, the detonator charged
They'd all the marbles n the keels

And that's about the time they praised The One who weeps
Indians shouldn't take their lives so seriously.. Wat
ever happened to national security
THE DOVE IS KILLIN EVERYONE
But we won't go strangle Laden
So they can blast again
So they can blast again

And that's what the status quo does to me
Cos I do take my life seriously
Can't have'em doin their thing in my home
THE DOVE IS KILLIN EVERYONE
But we won't kill'em in their camp
So they can blast again
So they can blast again

So they can blast again



Another Set of Serial Blasts! This time in Delhi. Another song I reworded.. this Blink182 number's was a wierd target for me to reword. But for some reasons it just had to be this one.

I'm freaked out n frustrated..

Again referring to the absolutely pusillanimous international security policy I'm now more hopeless and less optimistic than what i was while writing 'WHOM ARE WE KIDDING?'. I've chosen this happy punk song cos first of all the recurrence of the attacks is well reflected in th recurring "SO THEY CAN BLAST AGAIN" and also i feel the contrast between the feel of the music and that of the lyrics i've put in, is striking. This difference i hope brings out how cheap n easy it is to take Indian lives.

In a faint hope that next time we vote, we talk politics, we write or express our views in any dam fashion, do anything socially significant.. We have national Security at the top of our minds.

Huh.. Guess i should try writing songs now rather than reword them..
