With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out in the water
See it swimmin'
Well, my mind is certainly not on the shopping, the sights, the people, and the food of Paris; while this city has a lot of historical value, I'm not sure where to find the revolutionaries, and I am missing the streets of Amsterdam. My mind, however, is on neither city; instead I am thinking of Denver, and of the thousands of activists converging on the DNC to show Obama that America cares about peace, the environment, our troops, about education, about health care; to show Obama that the people of America care about people, not making the richest richer, not making our economy the strongest in the world, not making America more powerful. We care about individual rights and freedoms in a balance with safe and healthy communities. We care about the future. How do the police respond? Pepper spray, beatings, and raids on non-violent protesters, by violating the same civil liberties that we exercised to become a nation in the first place.
The Democratic National Convention is playing host to more intense patriotism than America has seen ever in recent years- check out the latest episode of sub-media to see footage from the REAL democratic convention taking place outside the pepsi stadium. http://www.themelononline.com/2008/08/dnc-video-dispatch-3.html
all of these episodes should be available on sub-media.tv : stay informed!
Et oui, j'ai vu la Louvre.
