I went to an obscure shop once and they were selling seperate badges that said "get cape" "wear cape" and "fly". All the fly ones had been taken by people mistaking them for inspirational badges, I found it quite funny.
I just watched Matilda, the original version on TV and at the end, Matilda starts reading Moby Dick. "Call me Ishmael" she reads. Tears! For so many reasons. My younger brother Rene loved this album sooooo much. Rest in peace Rene. You & your love of good music with meaning still lives on. Art unites us all.
Was asked when I was on boarding at my job if I had a preferred name, so I said... "Call me Ishmael". Didn't know there was a song out there, and a apt one at that.
It's one of those times that I can't seem to find the words or thoughts These hazy eyes, the perfect partner to my weary mind And it's not been a matter of days, in fact it's felt like an age since I last sat down or I saw a town that wasn't linked by shows And fatigue's soon ignored as your feet hit the board Or as the beat hits the floor, these are the moments we're living for The ones that constantly try to appease our 9-5s They're the ones that justify all the things that we forsake You are not your job and you are not the clothes you wear You are the words that leave your mouth so speak up, speak up loud For none of us want to sit in evaluations taking notes for hours We're all sick and tired of waiting. Let's set sail And fatigue's soon ignored as your feet hit the board Or as the beat hits the floor, these are the moments that we're living for The ones who constantly try, to appease our 9-5s They're the ones that justify, all the things that we forsake Why do we look to the tide when we find that our minds are getting stale Why does it bag me this place on the waves And are we looking for meaning from demeaning and soul destroying task we do all the time on the shore And as I picture you on the television Talking all the seller hook past all the people walking It's about then that I realize that you're the same as me So call me Ishmael, we are all striving for The thing that makes this grind worth surviving Be that our white whale or the one little moment Where our dreams still feel alive And as I picture you on the television Talking all the seller hook past all the people walking It's about then that I realise that you're the same as me So call me Ishmael, we are all striving for The thing that makes this grind worth surviving Be that our white whale or the one little moment Where our dreams still feel alive
GCWCF used to always be on XFM, before they turned into more of a hipster station. Surprised he didn't take off a bit more to be honest. That's not a cape joke by the way, genuinely surprised.
