Conclusion
There is a certain social process which is known and very visible but perhaps not acknowledged as much as it should be. It is that one where a new idea or an old one in new form, is accepted by a minority, while the majority is shouting treason, rubbish, cook, communist, anarchist, capitalist, or whatever is a term of abuse valued by that society--infringer--and they develop this idea, at first probably in secrecy or semi-secrecy, and then more and more visible, with more and more support until, guess what? What? This seditious and impossible wrong-headed idea, becomes what is known as... what? ...received opinion and is loved and valued... what? ...by the majority. What? What?
Conclusion
Look people, you heard it on the radio
I get...
You seen it on the TV show
Uh oh
OK, A B I O C O C C C...
OK, OK, you better listen to me good, 'cause this is the ABCs of Anarchism
A B C OK
We'll be singin' when we're singing
We'll be singin'
Where have the tele-tubbies gone?
I get knocked down but I get up again, you're never gonna keep me
I get knocked but I down but I get you're never gonna keep me
Get, never gonna keep me, but I get up again
I get knocked up
Piss, piss, piss, piss
I wanna be be be be be
OK OK OK
anarchy
You better listen to be good, 'cause this is the ABCs of anarchism
ABC
If ever the free institutions of America are destroyed, that event may be attributed to the unlimited authority of the majority, and oblige them to have recourse to physical force. Anarchy will then be the result
I want to tell you about anarchism
Conclusion
Guess what?
I want to tell you about anarchism because I think that it is well that you should know all about it
Everything I want, is true
It's your responsiblity now to see that I get what I want
Conclusion
Guess what?
I want to tell you about anarchism because everything that you have heard about it is wrong
Got it? Wrong!
Because they can come back to you and say
Who can say what it is?
I want to tell you about anarchism because I believe anarchism is the finest and neatest thing that has ever been invented
There's no right and wrong, there's only people's arbitrary desires
I want to tell you about anarchism because anarchism is the only thing that can give you liberty and well-being and bring peace and joy to the world
You just have to remember whatever people think is right, is right, even if it isn't
So tell me what you want, what you really really want
I'll tell you what I really really want
So tell me what you want, what you really really want
I want an... an... an...
I wanna tell you in such plain and simple language that there will be no misunderstanding me
Facts?
But hold on a minute, just wait wait wait wait wait
Conclusion
Before I can tell you what anarchism is
I don't remember
Whiskey drink the country bunny tele-tubbies boutique located in Laurelwood across from Oak Court mall
Vodka drink the tele-tubbies childrens boutique located in Laurelwood across from tele-tubbies mall
Lager drink certain men getting their way
Cider drink the anarchy childrens boutique located in bunny country country bunny
Big country bunny
Drink drink drink drink
We've never promoted some kind of cliched stand obviously not too... whatever
But hold on a minute, just hold on a minute, just wait, wait wait wait wait
Before I can tell you what anarchism is
Anarchism is not not not not
Conclusion
Just never ending you know it's just going to continue to continue until they win and beat us down into a pulp
I get we won't let that happen well one function here
I get knocked down well we won't let that happen
I get, I get
At its best times, this nation has always had as its true source of political energy well among those citizens among selected places who took it upon themselves to act
Conclusion
Anarchism is not robbery, murder --were they framed--
Anarchsim is not a war of each against all --were they friends
I get
Anarchism is not mobs or disorders or chaos
It is not, not not not, who can say what is?
Being involved in something like this, I tell you, it can strip the hope right out of you
You stop really looking the beast in the face day after day and you see what the problems are and you do all those good things you're taugh to do
You write your member of congress you you write letters to the editor you you go out and vote you it makes no difference
Anarchism actually is the opposite of all of that
Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be
Pinky winky
He sings the songs that remind him of the good times
Good times
All the tele-tubbies were feeling very very happy
He sings the songs that remind him of the better times
Where's my head?
Let me think
No, I dont' keep it under the sink
Drip drip drip
I know no country in which there is so little true independence of mind and freedom of discussion as in America
Get rid of... and start over... either Republican or Democrat
We gotta get something to change the system somehow
I don't know how
I don't know how
I don't know how
Alright people
Alright people
You must avoid government and democracy
Would they prefer anarchy?
The founding fathers hated two things--they hated democracy and they hated monarchy--and they saw to it that we would have neither
Anarchism means that you should be free and no one should enslave you or rob you or...their way among you
You just have to remember whatever people think is right, is right, even if it isn't
Then tell me what's right
What's right...
If you don't know what right is, then you don't belong in this country
That's what's destroying this country, a lot of damn...
Anarchism means that there should be no war, no violence
This doesn't matter
No monopoly
This doesn't matter
No poverty
How can they not expect the government to regulate us?
Because we can't regulate ourselves
And no taking advantage of your fellow man
Somebody has to
The ideal were included, the ideal is a completely fragmented, atomized society, where everyone is totally alone, doing nothing but trying to pursue created wants
And our wants are created, it's known that they're created
Don't you know the difference between up and down?
Oh sure!
I get knocked
I don't think you do
No?
But I know something that'd help you?
Yeah?
I know a song all about up and
Down
Anarchism means living in a society where all men and all women are free
Where we all equally enjoy the benefits of an order and sensible life
Have you got that
Have you got that people
Conclusion
He drinks a whiskey drink
Uh oh
He drinks a vodka drink
Uh oh
He drinks a lager drink
If you succeed and achieve your goal with people, then great, the strategy worked
If not, switch your viewpoint, there are no absolutes, turn to some different people
You just have to remember whatever people think is right, is right, even if it isn't, and try again
Have you got that people?
Have you got that?
Conclusion
Have you got that?
Free, free, free
Conclusion
It is evident to all alike that a great revolution is going on among us
That there are two opinions to its nature and consequences
Conclusion
It says a great deal positively
I don't think you'll find citizens in the street who agree with the positive aspects of
Would they prefer anarchy?
Conclusion
This is your friendly stupid weatherman reminding you that when they can't have their anarchism I have to make it right for them, every time, how 'bout that?
Would they prefer anarchy?
Ha ha ha, I don't know
