America Is Not the World

Por fin, desde hoy, podremos descansar un poquito del bombardeo que hemos tenido este año con al elección del nuevo presidente del mundo.

Que sí, que es muy importante, que me alegro mucho de que haya ganado Obama en vez del viejuno de las patatas (:-p) pero me tenían ya hasta los mismísimos.

Así que como homenaje al temita os paso una coplilla de Morrissey que dice bien claro lo que pensamos muchos. Y hoy mejor que nunca, ya que por fin se ha roto una de las premisas de las que se habla en la canción.

America your head's too big
because America
your belly is too big
and I love you
I just wish you'd stay where you is

in America
the land of the Free, they said
and of opportunity
in a Just and a Truthful way
but where the President
is never black, female or gay
and until that day
you've got nothing to say to me
to help me believe

in America
it brought you the hamburger
well America
you know where
you can shove your hamburger
and don't you wonder
why in Estonia they say
"Hey you, you big fat pig"
"you fat pig"
"you fat pig" - ?

Steely blue eyes
with no love in them
scan the World
And a humourless smile with no warmth within
greets the world
and I
I have got nothing
to offer you
just this heart deep and true
which you say you don't need

See with your eyes
touch with your hands - please
know in your soul
hear through your ears - please

for haven't you me with you now?
and I love you
I love you
I love you
