One the Program Today ...



Just a heads up. Tonight the wonderful and talented Bucky Driedger from the Liptonians and Royal Canoe will be co-hosting the show with me. Bucky's a great guy, with excellent taste in music so it will be fun to hear what he brings tonight. He'll also be talking with us about the upcoming Liptonians album fundraiser happening on Saturday at the Park Theatre with Wool on Wolves and Henry and the Nightcrawlers. Should be a blast!

Is this comical or tragic?

I don't really know what to do with this. Help me out.

First the lyrics of Gang of Four's "Natural's Not in It"

The problem of leisure
What to do for pleasure
Ideal love a new purchase
A market of the senses
Dream of the perfect life
Economic circumstances
The body is good business
Sell out, maintain the interest
Remember Lot's wife
Renounce all sin and vice
Dream of the perfect life
This heaven gives me migraine
The problem of leisure
What to do for pleasure

Coercion of the senses
We are not so gullible
Our great expectations
A future for the good
Fornication makes you happy
No escape from society
Natural is not in it
Your relations are of power
We all have good intentions
But all with strings attached

Repackaged sex your interest
Repackaged sex your interest
Repackaged sex your interest
Repackaged sex your interest
Repackaged sex your interest
Repackaged sex your interest

The problem of leisure
What to do for pleasure
Ideal love a new purchase
A market of the senses
Dream of the perfect life
Economic circumstances
The body is good business
Sell out, maintain the interest
Remember Lot's wife
Renounce all sin and vice
Dream of the perfect life
This heaven gives me migraine
This heaven gives me migraine
This heaven gives me migraine


And then of course ...



I guess that's one way to interpret "the body is good business".
