Conor Oberst
他是美國當紅獨立樂團Bright Eyes的靈魂人物
也有媒體說他是這個時代最好的詞曲創作者
他寫了一首諷刺美國總統布希的歌
聽說有一個關於這首歌的小故事
在某次紐約的演唱會上
Conor Oberst 說:「接下來的這首歌是寫給我們狂傲無知的狗屁總統」
然後他唱起了這首歌~When The President Talks To God
幾秒鐘的前奏後，他停下手中的吉他說
我剛才忘了說:「無能的」

這也是小黑的反戰立場
或許只有搖滾樂才能這麼直接說出真心話?

When The President Talks To God / Bright Eyes

＊
When the president talks to God
Are the conversations brief or long?
Does he ask to rape our women’s’ rights
And send poor farm kids off to die?
Does God suggest an oil hike
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
Are the consonants all hard or soft?
Is he resolute all down the line?
Is every issue black or white?
Does what God say ever change his mind
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
Agree which convicts should be killed?
Where prisons should be built and filled?
Which voter fraud must be concealed
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
I wonder which one plays the better cop
We should find some jobs. the ghetto’s broke
No, they’re lazy, George, I say we don’t
Just give ’em more liquor stores and dirty coke
That’s what God recommends

When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
When the president talks to God

When the president talks to God
Does he ever think that maybe he’s not?
That that voice is just inside his head
When he kneels next to the presidential bed
Does he ever smell his own bullshit
When the president talks to God?

I doubt it

I doubt it
