Vivimos tiempos mediocres, Señora Dunn...

... por eso debemos mirar en lo más profundo de nuestras convicciones y, en los momentos menos propicios, enfrentar el dolor, el miedo, la angustia, con aquello que nos hace ser más fuertes.

Si para ello los que sucumbieron un día a cualquiera de esos tres enemigos se unen a ellos, y no sólo se muestran convencidos de su impotencia para vencerlos, sino que combaten activamente a su favor, haremos aún así de su lucha nuestro alimento, y convertiremos las espadas en arados, y sus cuerpos en campos donde sembrar las semillas del Amor.

Me quedo con este ejemplo, recuerdo de mi juventud, seducido por su fecunda lluvia de símbolos: hippies, de la Ilustración, masones, trascendentalistas, y en fin, de todo pensamiento que camine, como los protagonistas de esta canción, contra lo rancio, lo arcaico, tradicional e inmovilista.



High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast
D.j.'s the man we love the most
Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
And smash any hope of democracy ?
As the headline says you're free to choose
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues

And anything is possible when you're sowing the seeds of love
Anything is possible - sowing the seeds of love

I spy tears in their eyes
They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention
Food goes to waste !
So nice to eat, so nice to taste
Politician grannie with your high ideals
Have you no idea how the majority feels ?
So without love and a promise land
We're fools to the rules of a goverment plan
Kick out the style ! bring back the jam !

Anything...
Sowing the seeds
The birds and the bees
My girlfriend and me in love

Feel the pain
Talk about it
If you're a worried man - then shout about it
Open hearts - feel about it
Open minds - think about it
Everyone - read about it
Everyone - scream about it !
Everyone
Everyone - read about it, read about it
Read in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read
Chorus !

(Mr. England sowing the seeds of love)

Time to eat all your words
Swallow your pride
Open your eyes

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast
Every minute of every hour - I love a sunflower
And I believe in lovepower, love power, lovepower !!!

Sowing the seeds
An end to need
And the politics of greed
With love
