In A World Gone Mad...

[MrBlack]

The Beastie Boys have released a new single, via their website (http://www.beastieboys.com). It is available in mp3 format, as well as m3u streaming audio. The song is their take on America's current situation and pending war with Iraq.



The lyrics are also available, and I would highly suggest giving the song a good listen, even if you're not a fan. At the very least, read the lyrics.

You've got a point there.

the beastie boys are trying to rap again

tell me what war one of them have been in

they sold a copy to mrblack - I guess the album went "tin"

so let me began saying this song never will spin



it almost makes me want them to be silenced

I didn't like em when they were teaching kids reliance and violence

now they think there graduates of political science



my main concern is that's a 180 turn

they want us to stand down, not to be stern

watch saddam return & yearn to watch every fucking American boy burn



let me make a formal introduction

this is a man that loves oil production and the overproduction of weapons of mass destruction

how would you like being faced with abductions and seductions

getting hit with chemical agents that will stop sexual reproduction



hell, even if you look at him the wrong way or cross his path

you'll feel his wrath and end up in an acid bath.

and that's no joke, neither is watching a child get his eyes poked out

just for not turning in the names of someone you know that spoke out



you ain't figured out how sick this man is yet?

His weapons are out in the field unconcealed.

there for the taking, except for the human shield

a group of people that yield on account their faces might get peeled

look at the man from Hannibal, that shit will never heal



This man ain't no flower, and while we're in our showers

this self-empowered man is waiting for the right hour to devour every underpowered coward

while the beastie boys wants us to sit back and enjoy happy hour... Fucking Pussies

[MrBlack]

I read half your post, then just skimmed the rest, and it seemed to me your a war advocate. Because the Beastie Boys are speaking out against war, you called them





Fucking Pussies





Maybe you're alright with people dying over there, when many other solutions, which can't even find their way into our president's thick rock of a head, have gone unattempted.

So, you sat down and listed to BB's song, While you read the lyrics.



Your talking about some Has Been's here. Trying to make a dying buck of some lyrics my 7 y/o niece could of produced.



Now, I'm now pro at spitting our rhymes, and yes, I'm so sick of hearing about the war of "awe" and "wow", you can call me an advocate. I'm ready to get on w/ my American life.



BUT:



Mr. Peace Talks, I could have EASLY out whitted these so called "PROS" at their own game. You don't know me, so I'll let you in on a little something. ANY argument ANY time, I can deal it out on either side....

[Reckless]

you can spit out rhymes but can't form coherent sentences? ;) hehe, j/k AA :)

How can you talk peace with psychopath? Honestly.. would you sit there and do nothing if some guy was buying a gun right in front of your face and saying he was about to go cap his neighbor because he has more money than him? This is a man who ordered an assassination on his own son and his people are so scared of him that noone will run against him. This is a man who puts people in prison just cause he suspects they are doing something he disapproves of. Do you have any idea what they do to these people in prison over there? I dont care what Bush is in this for, the fact is Saddam needs to be taken out of power. I think war fucking sucks, but if we dont do it now we're just postponing an even bigger war when Saddam decides to go postal on his neighboring countries. Or when he decides "hey i dont like the US, i think i'll send this nuclear fucking warhead straight to DC!" War may not be the best solution, but it is the only solution Saddam is going to give us. Period. All he wants to do is stall and stall so he can get whatever it is he's working on done. After that i doubt he'll care if we come at him full steam. He's a lunatic.
