A couple of years ago when I first started going to protests here in New York City and getting on the subway without a mask I used to play uprising through my earphones to give me energy to get through this hell!

Thank you for posting Hotel Paranoia, Mark, here are the lyrics written out:

HOTEL PARANOIA

(the rewrite)

On the great reset highway, fools’ words in my ear

Warm smell of infection, rising up through the fear

Up ahead in the future, I saw a frightening sight

My health grew heavy and my rights grew dim

I got locked down for the night

“Show passports at the doorway,”

I heard the armed guards tell

And I was thinking to myself,

“This could be Heaven or this could be Hell”

Then they brought out the needles and they boosted away

There were voices from the monitor,

I thought I heard them say…

Welcome to the Hotel Paranoia

Such an ugly place (Such an ugly place)

So just mask your face

Plenty of doom at the Hotel Paranoia

Any kind of fear (Any kind of fear)

You can find it here

The news is definitely twisted toward propagandic ends

They got a lot of pretty newsman boys they call friends

How they lie in the courthouse, hyping the threat.

Some lie to remember, some lie to forget

So I called up the doctor,

“Please help me feel fine”

He said, “We haven’t showed that spirit here since nineteen twenty nine”

And so our choice is falling so far away,

Taken out in the middle of the night

Then you hear them say…

Welcome to the Hotel Paranoia

Such an ugly place (Such an ugly place)

So just mask your face

The living will die at the Hotel Paranoia

What a big surprise (not a nice surprise)

Right before your eyes.

Fear’s up to the ceiling,

They keep vaccine on ice

“Sure,” we said, “we are all just listeners here, on our own device”

And in Big Pharma’s boardrooms,

They gathered for the feast

They profit from our sickly lives

And they just can’t care the least

Last thing I remember, I was

Lying on the floor

I couldn’t get the message back

To the way it was before

“React,” said the fright man,

“We are programmed to deceive.

You can fact check any time you like,

But you will not believe.”

Muse UPRISING is great! I think I used the lyrics in some sort of "binding thing" If I find it I'll post link in case anyone's interested. Can't believe that song was 2009? Yikes I'm old...

Muse's recent song "Compliance" is another accurate and perfect description of the past few years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP3zRBtgvJo

Yes!! Muse rocks that song, one of my favorites.

Dr Miller you constantly surprise me with your broad range of musical interests, from progressive metal to the folk songs that you yourself wrote.

Another favorite I've been listening to recently is What's Going On by 4 Non Blondes. Amazingly, the same band who was warning us about the world being run by a "brotherhood of men", and now they are shilling for Fauci & the cabal, doing benefit concerts for vaccines. Oh well, the song inspires me in a different way now - now it's an anthem to how people can become brainwashed if they're not vigilant. We now know what's going on, it's called propaganda:

I guess I prefer Marvin Gaye's (and like to think HE would NOT be "vaccinated")....

Paul, I have that 4NBs song in one of my playlists. Saw them live many times way back when. WTF is this about "shilling for Fauci & the cabal, doing benefit concerts for vaccines"??? YUCK. sad so sad....

There was a concerted effort by Fauci, Jerome Adam's (under Trump), NIH, CDC, etc, to get celebrities & social media influencers to promote the vaccine & publicize their getting the shot. Here is just one example, a group call with 30+ celebs:

And in another example, 4NB and some other musicians:

https://wfpk.org/2021/linda-perry-recruits-foo-fighters-sheryl-crow-dawes-more-for-benefit-to-grow-vaccination-efforts/

Fauci was particularly interested in getting black celebs on board. DL Hughley talks about Fauci calling him, and pushing back, referencing Tuskegee etc. Unfortunately Fauci convinced Hughley to take the jab, and subsequently passed out on stage:

OH YES, that friggin Noam. In case anyone missed it, here's what that dick said:

Noam Chomsky makes comments about people who refuse to be vaccinated against COVID-19

Sam DuffyNovember 3, 2021

https://thecord.ca/noam-chomsky-makes-comments-about-people-who-refuse-to-be-vaccinated-against-covid-19/

>>>> Chomsky claimed that voluntary isolation should be expected of people who refuse to be vaccinated, as they pose a potential harm to society. He was hesitant to claim enforcement would be necessary but acknowledged that if steps were not taken voluntarily then state intervention may come into play. <<<<

>>>> Chomsky’s comments follow a string of bad judgements, namely, finding moral equivalence in U.S. foreign policy and the attacks of Sept. 11.

>>>> In the interview he gave with the Primo Radical YouTube channel, he claimed that unvaccinated people should be informed that they should voluntarily isolate themselves from society because they are a danger to public safety, and that those with moral capacity will do so.

>>>>>>when he was asked how this isolated class would receive food.

He remarked that this was a problem for the unvaccinated. The solution then, according to Chomsky, is to appeal to moral capacity and then claim that those who do not understand should live in an isolated existence with food uncertainty.

Yes, RFKjr talked and wrote about his great regard he had had for Chomsky. Sadly, his end is tragically revealing. When faced with a respiratory virus, he sided with the uninformed and voted to condemn the unvaccinated. And the vaccines are ineffectual, and terribly dangerous. Chomsky is a man of weak mind, and cowardly character. His previous work in that light looks very different.

Absolutely. And really, he followed the mass thought but in a seemingly intellectually radical way, bu being such a forced mRNA injection zealot. That is how one gets ahead in the cookie cutter mold of academia in which he made his name. Retrospectively, that was his SOP.

He's largely to blame for the left's disgraceful neglect of JFK/Dallas, King/Memphis, 9/11 and the thefts of the elections in 2000 and 2004.

RE "because it was the culture of their time" Gee Liz, why don't peep get this? Margaret Sanger is now just another Nazi eugenicist. George W just another slave holder... Don't excuse things but CONTEXT of the times they were in. No rewriting, wiping out history! Thanks!

Well, kinda, re: Sanger. Have you read The Pivot of Civilization? Seems to me she was more into eugenics than into feminism.

Until I read the comments, I did not realise "degrading us" was not produced overnight...too too appropriate and eery feeling. I wasn't listening to pop or rock or whatever at the time, classical was my feed at the time.

As for Hotel California it's come to it's appropriate re-write.

So genial of you to post them for us. Thanks Mark.

Pennywise cool. I think I'll check some BAD RELIGION lyrics, too. "Suffer" "Submission Complete" "Kyoto Now" "Social Suicide" "Let Them eat War" (CD: The Empire Strikes First)

I love "Freedom of Choice" by DEVO

Freedom of choice
