Anarchist reactionary running dog revisionist

Hindu muslim catholic creation / evolutionist

Rational romantic mystic cynical idealist

Minimal exp

ressionist post-modern neo-symbolist

 

Arm chair rocket scientist graffiti existentialist

Deconstruction primitive performance photo realist

Be-bop or a one drop or a hip hop lite pop metallist

Gold adult contemporary urban country capitalist

I found some unused alternate lyrics in a magazine a few years ago. I like them.

 

Take my love, take my land

Take me where I can not stand

I don't care, I'm still free

You can't take the sky from me

 

Take me out, to the black

Tell them all I ain't coming back

Burn the land, boil the sea

You can't take the sky from me

I've wondered about a great many things in my life, but I've never once wondered if any of you folks memorized those particular lyrics. Or any other lyrics, for that matter.

You can't be a TrueRushFan™ if you don't have them memorized.

I have just recently memorized them. It was my second biggest lyrical memorization accomplishment (first being "We Didn't Start The Fire" by Billy Joel.)

I've mentioned several times on TRF that YBYL reminds me of that Joel song...which I also dislike.

 

I hate the Joel song, and I get the comparison. I don't know why it's different with YBYL.

I'd say you have no idea, but you probably do, how much I love any reference at all to the greatest television show of all time.

Then I am not a true Rush fan.

Turn that frown upside down because you can still be with just a little work.

 

If that work means liking the song this thread is talking about, that won't happen.

 

Then again, I like Heresy and Neurotica.

No no no. You can't be a TrueRushFan™ unless you've wondered if other TRFers have memorized them.

No no no. You can't be a TrueRushFan™ until you can admit they had some shitty songs.

Worst song on a terrible album. Why would anyone bother?

 

I almost wrote something similar but I figured I'd be accused of being cranky. :P
