Mellencamp John Cougar - Eden is Burning
Album:
Dear Mr. President
I live in the suburbs
It's a long way from Washington, D.C.
Had me a job
Workin' for wages
Till the company moved out
And they forgot about me
Can't draw unemployment
For some unknown reason
My kids are hungry
I've got four mouths to feed
I go out everyday lookin' for suitable employment
Do you think there's something you could do for me
Cause I'm
CHORUS
Down and out here in paradise
Down and out and I'm on my knees
I'm down and out here in paradise
Looks like the milk and honey
Done run out on me
Dear Mr. President
I used to be a dancer
Got a little bit too old
So I became a secretary
Married a man
In Las Vegas, Nevada
And ten years later
He ran out on the kids and me
Some said I was pretty
But those days are over
Now I've no place to live
And I'm out on the streets
Oh, Mr. President
Can I tell you a secret
I never ever thought that his could happen to me
Cause I'm
CHORUS
Dear Mr. President
I'm just a young kid
I'm in the fourth grade
At Riley Elementary
My mom and dad's been actin' funny
I'm not sure what
If it ain't got something to do with me
My daddy's always drunk
My mom's a babysitter
And I don't like the Russians
Cause I hear they hate me
Dear Mr. President
Can I ask you one question
When the bombs fall down
Will they hurt everyone in my family
Yeah, yeah
CHORUS

- Bez wątpienia jedną z cech geniusza jest talent do wywoływania skandalu. Akutagawa Ryunosuke (1892-1927)
- Optymizm - karykatura nadziei. Gilbert Cesbron
- Istnieją dwa powody, które nie pozwalają ludziom spełnić swoich marzeń. Najczęściej po prostu uważają je za nierealne. A czasem na skutek nagłej zmiany losu pojmują, że spełnienie marzeń staje się możliwe w chwili, gdy się tego najmniej spodziewają. Wtedy jednak budzi się w nich strach przed wejściem na ścieżkę, która prowadzi w nieznane, strach przed życiem rzucającym nowe wyzwania, strach przed utratą na zawsze tego, do czego przywykli. P. Coelho

MUDVAYNE SLAM RADIO WITH THEIR FASTEST-RISING SINGLE YET
"DO WHAT YOU DO" IS #1 MOST ADDED AT ACTIVE ROCK AND #2 MOST ADDED AT MODERN ROCK
BAND OPENS UP TICKET SALES AT ALL OUTLETS
(Monday, September 29)
AND PARTNERS WITH BESTBUY TO ADD A FREE LIVE WEBCAST OF THEIR CONCERT TO FAN CLUB MEMBERS
MUDVAYNE--one of the most creative and distinctive bands in the aggressive music world with sales exceeding 5 million units worldwide--have slammed onto the charts with "Do What You Do," the fastest-rising single of their career. Garnering over 75 radio adds out of the box--in the first 36 hours the track became available this week--the song is #1 most added at the Active Rock chart and #2 most added at Modern Rock.
As the band prepare to release THE NEW GAME--their first studio album in three years, due out November 18 via Epic Records--the band is working even harder to get the best possible deal directly to their fans in light of the tough economy by opening up ticket sales of their upcoming tour to all outlets and partnering with Best Buy to add a free live web cast of their concert to fan club members who pre-order the album at bestbuy.com/mudvayne. "We want fans that cannot afford to see us live or that live outside our tour markets to still get the benefits of our âThe Album Is The TicketTM' program," says singer Chad Gray, "and by adding the live webcast and releasing ticket sales to the general public, we are now able to offer fans even more value and options for their money in this rough financial time."
The concert webcast will be from one of the tour stops (TBA) on the first leg of "The New Game Tour 2008." Meanwhile, all tickets will be released at all outlets by Monday, September 29th. All current âThe Album Is The Ticket' members are entitled to a free meet & greet at their selected show.
