Everybody knows where we're going.

Ironically, while I loved this song when it first came out, I hated this video.  I didn't get it.  I didn't want to see what they were trying to say.  Now I see.  It's funny how that happens.



All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got
All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down

Let's paint the picture
Of the perfect place
They've got it better then when anyone's told ya
They'll be the King of Hearts, and you're the Queen of Spades
Then we'll fight for you like we were your soldiers
I know we got it good, but they got it made,
And their grass is getting greener each day,
I know things are looking up, but soon they'll take us down,
Before anybody's knowing our name

They've got...

All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got
 All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down
They say
 Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down

 Do you think I'm special?
 Do you think I'm nice?
 Am I bright enough to shine in your spaces?
 Between the noise you hear, and the sounds you like
Are we just sinking the ocean of faces?
It can't be possible... the rain can fall
Only when it's over our heads.
 The sun is shining everyday, but it's far away.
Over the world that's dead.

 They've got, they've got...

 All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got
 All the right moves in all the right faces
 So yeah, we're going down [Repeat]

They say
 Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
 Yeah, we're going down
 They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down

It don't matter what you see I know I could never be
 Someone that'll look like you.
It don't matter what you say I know I could never fake
Someone that could sound like you.

 All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got
All the right moves in all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down [Repeat]
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down
They say
Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down
Yeah, we're going down [repeat x2]
All the right moves... heeey
Yeah we're going down
They say
All the right moves... heeey
Yeah we're going down


So, what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Did they paint the picture? What did you see? Are we going down?

  2. Ah Shoes,

    I see that you have hit The End of The Road or taken your Fukitol Pill. Whatevs. Since there really isn't anything we can do, your choice to be okay with it all is the wiser course. I envy your ability to just sit back and chill.

    I am planning on doing a blog in the near future on one of my absolute favorite new shows of the season - Revolution - and am going to incorporate some youtube footage. You saw that coming right? I am a youtube junkie.

    So my response to your comment is actually this:

    It is a spoiler alert from my upcoming blog. But, I am still sharing it with you JUST BECAUSE you are SPECIAL and I LIKE YOU. :):):)

    Happy New Year my friend (from the bottom of the cliff)!!!

    Man, that was some echo. What a drop!

    1. Well, there is no real point in worrying. What does worry get you? Nothing. If you were actually in a position to DO something it might be different, but we are not. All we can do is prepare for what is coming.

  4. I am 100% with Shoes! It's the only way to fight the administration Socialist agenda.

  5. We are all in this together, aren't we? Maybe this is the whole plan for the universe after all- we learn to rely on one another in a whole different way and start a whole new society of sorts. Maybe it's just my secretly optimistically attitude coming through.

You can now add YouTube videos in your comments by copy/pasting the link. AND/OR you can insert an image by surrounding the code with this: [im]code[/im]. In the case of images, make sure that your code is short and simple ending with something like .jpg. If you want to use a pic from someplace like Google Images, click on the image, then click on View Image. That is the code you want!
