I’m not feeling particularly sunny this morning/week/year.

As I walk through/This wicked world/Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity./I ask myself/Is all hope lost?/Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?



Translated the song title is Fragile World and the lyrics goes something like this:

He reads in his paper about a country/where they always places their religion first/How does that work/How can they do that?/But his daddy says they have inherited all their view from their fathers/and that is never good/Things will go very wrong one day

And he closes his door/He doesn’t want to see what is blowing against his face/He doesn’t want his fragile world be destroyed by any wind

He reads to learn debating/It’s no coincidence that the great men on TV thinks like he/But sometimes, sometimes he changes the channel

He knows what he wants/He doesn’t want to see what is blowing against his face/He doesn’t want his fragile world be destroyed by any wind

He friends thinks the same way as he/With them he builds his world view/Like it was a building kit/How can all the truths be true/When they are all flying about/But his truth is home with him, so that’s the truest of them all

And he closes his door/He doesn’t want to see what is blowing against his face/He doesn’t want his fragile world be destroyed by any wind/He doesn’t want his fragile world be destroyed by anything/No, no, no, no

Can you feel how you sway by the mildest breeze/I don’t want my fragile world destroyed to any price


It’s rather depressing that this song was written in 1989.



And this is a repeat, but this song has been on repeat in my head all through 2016.

There is a war on and all of the morons are winning, they are winning year to year

Elvis Costello! My husband just got glasses (46, first time ever except for drugstore readers), and he's decided they make him look like Elvis C . . .

Yeah, I can see it. He got round instead of big chunky glasses, but it's definitely there.
