Now that all the one that will bitch have deleted this, I gotta tell
those of you reading about a group that James Cook turned me on to.
Slobberbone list, these guys rock! Car lists, this is good music. If I
got you listening to Slobberbone, check this out.
The group is The Hangdogs, out of New York. Graz, ever heard of them?
Their website has some free mp3 downloads.

Download the first song, The World Is Yours. I have added the lyrics to
the end of this email. Damn good song. Check it out.

The World Is Yours
We pledged allegiance to the stars and stripes and
you
We walked in single file just like all your good tin
soldiers do
Your textbooks told us we could all be president if
we tried
You said Christ saved us all with the turn of a cheek
While you sent our fathers cross the sea to pacify
the meek
You told us God decreed they die their souls to save,
but you lied
You said we're free to do just what we want but told
us what we
should
Your advertisements told us what we'd get if we were
good
You said the bad man on the TV news was just born
that way, into
sin
You bade us learn but only what we'd need to make a
buck
You said "ideals are fine for now but soon you'll be
growing up"
You said, "this world ain't fair, and the race goes
to the strong," and I
guess you win
The world is yours
I'm just passing through
I want nothing more from you
Given or earned
'Cause this land damn sure ain't my land
And this poisoned world it ain't God's plan
It's yours
Take it and burn
You give us jobs so we could by the crap we make for
you
You give us credit in lieu of indentured servitude
You give us leaders starched and sanitized,
handpicked from the
ranks of your devout
You measure freedom by your dividends down at the
Bank and Trust
I guess that means that you're a lot more free than
most of us
In your pristine suburban castles with the hedgerows
and the fences
all around
CHORUS
The world is yours
I'm just passing through
I want nothing more from you
Given or earned
'Cause this land damn sure ain't my land
And this poisoned world it ain't God's plan
It's yours
Take it and burn
