Warren zevon renegade4/1/2023 You're even entitled to call us softies because we don't share your outrage, but its just your opinion and we can point out your own ass-hattedness right back at you.īut you're not going to get us to boycott anything, nor will you succeed in altering the respect most here have for Zevon as an artist. What exactly do you want us to do about it?ĭo you want to boycot Zevon's music? Fine, have at it.ĭo you want to send a nasty letter to the radio station for, gasp, having the gall to play Rolland and to offend your personal sensibilities? Fine, and please post their response as we will probably enjoy it. Suppose Warren Zevon was a pinko commie terrorist sympathizing sum' bitch at some time in the mid 1970s when Rolland came out. I suppose somthing you could say to me, and, I back to you is I'm willing to accept that I may be wrong from time to time. If anyone can come up with any other evidence that I've interpreted my research, or the I haven't taken a drubbing from everyone, AFAIK, becasue I know of a few that agree. Nobody so far on this thread has been able to present any evidence other than I demonized him in a sense I suppose, becasue of how I interpret the lyrics, which, Why stop digging when you already have the shovel, eh?

People who have listened to it for years don't know what they're talking about, but you, having heard it JUST TODAY are all clued in as to the real meaning of the song. Here's the funny thing: Today's the first time you've heard the song, so you did a little research, and all of a sudden you're an expert on it. I guess you just need to demonize warron zevon. Note: the text of this song's lyrics is not under the same copyright license as the wiki's encyclopedic text, it is used under fair use/ dealing.I guess it's just a need you have to demonize me, which is fine.

Dupes-a large class, no doubt-each of whom, because he is allowed one voice out of millions in deciding what he may do with his own person and his own property, and because he is permitted to have the same voice in robbing, enslaving, and murdering others, that others have in robbing, enslaving, and murdering himself, is stupid enough to imagine that he is a “free man,” a “sovereign” that this is “a free government” “a government of equal rights,” “the best government on earth,” and such like absurdities. Knaves, a numerous and active class, who see in the government an instrument which they can use for their own aggrandizement or wealth. The ostensible supporters of the Constitution, like the ostensible supporters of most other governments, are made up of three classes, viz.: 1.
