Oingo Boingo lyrics for your enjoyment!

This is one of my favorite Oingo Boingo songs.

Capitalism by Oingo Boingo (1981)

"There’s nothing wrong with capitalism There’s nothing wrong with free enterprise Don’t try to make me feel guilty I’m so tired of hearing you cry "There’s nothing wrong with making some profit If you ask me I’ll say it’s just fine There’s nothing wrong with wanting to live nice I’m so tired of hearing you whine About the revolution Bringin’ down the rich When was the last time you dug a ditch, baby! "If it ain’t one thing Then it’s the other Any cause that crosses your path Your heart bleeds for anyone’s brother I’ve got to tell you you’re a pain in the ass "You criticize with plenty of vigor You rationalize everything that you do With catchy phrases and heavy quotations And everybody is crazy but you "You’re just a middle class, socialist brat From a suburban family and you never really had to work And you tell me that we’ve got to get back To the struggling masses (whoever they are) You talk, talk, talk about suffering and pain Your mouth is bigger than your entire brain What the hell do you know about suffering and pain . . . (repeat first verse) (repeat chorus) "There’s nothing wrong with capitalism There’s nothing wrong with capitalism There’s nothing wrong with capitalism There’s nothing wrong with capitalism " Oingo Boingo The above lyrics describe how I am feeling today. You just have to imagine Danny Elfman singing his heart out to those words. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nu3nkp9KP2s

Some Heroes of Mine

I have a personal hall of fame. It is filled with people who have in one way or another achieved excellence in their field. I have placed these people in my hall of fame because they represent attributes I wish I had or would like to develop better. Some are well known like John Stockton and Mother Teresa. Others are anonymous or nameless because their acts deserve protection from worldly interpretations and perversions. I have recently inducted a few more heroes to my list. Here are their stories:

Nancy the Great-She is going door to door in California to protect the divine institution of marriage. She holds signs on street corners doing her best to rally support for her position. In spite of fierce and disrespectful opposition, she goes about defending her own position and the official position of her church. To honor her God, she stands before the world and boldly declares that she will not be intimidated by all of the middle fingers, shouts of obscenity, and even gay hairy bare butts hanging out the windows of cars as they pass. She stands up for moral principals, religious liberty, freedom of speech unmolested, and the democratic process. She also makes a firm and significant stand against judicial oligarchy. Most of all, she is a wife and mother of 4 children.

Wendy the Wise-She has resisted the endless petitions and intimidations of the labor union common to her profession for years. She has taken a moral stand and will not join this union. This union has tried everything to bully workers into its ranks. It has denied its own obvious partisanship. It lied to her about its multi-million dollar support of Democratic candidates and none for Republican candidates. This organization is known for its totally liberal stance on everything from abortion to same-sex marriage. Her firm stance against this powerful, destructive union is an inspiration. She stands firm against the quasi-governmental organization that tries to replace the free-thinking consciences of its educated members. First and foremost, she is a wife and mother of 7 children.
