    I been thinking about you
    I been meaning to tell you
    Sit down with me let's have a drink
    Back when the war ended your great grandfather handwrote
    Letters of apology to all of those
    Families of men who crewed that U-boat
    Haunted 'til his death by that long night off the coast
    Your other great-granddad came back from Arnhem
    Transformed into a damaged and violent man
    Never spoke of the slaughter he witnessed firsthand
    This is the world I brought you into man

    All remorse, no rebel
    A shell of my former shell
    Sit down with me let's have a drink

    What have we here?
    The dreaded failed imagineer?
    His private dismay on public display
    Son, do not be alarmed by your old man's tears
    "Hey, old man, it's ok. Every dog has his day."

    Sit down with me let's have a drink
    I been thinking about you
    I been meaning to tell you
    Sit down with me let's have a drink

    At some turning point in history, some ****face recognized
    That knowledge tends to democratize, cultures and societies
    So the only thing to do
    Was monopolize and confine it to

    Priests, clerics and elites the rest resigned to serve
    'Cause if the rabble heard the truth, they'd organize against
    The power, privilege and wealth for the few and no one else
    And did it occur to you that it's exactly the same today?

    So if our schools won't teach us
    We'll teach ourselves to analyze and understand
    The systems of thought-control

    And share it with each other
    Never swayed by brass rings or by penalties
    I'll promise you, you promise me
    Not to sell each other out to murderers, to thieves

    Who've manufactured our delusion
    That you and me participate
    Meaningfully in the process
    Of running our own lives

    Yeah, you can vote however the **** you want
    But power still calls all the shots
    And believe it or not
    Even if democracy broke loose
    They'll just make the economy scream
    Until we vote responsibly

    Random Trivia:

    I never put much thought into it before, but seeing 25 or 6 to 4 in writing made me wonder where that came from. Turns out it is the time of day. Either 25 to 4 or 26 to 4.

    This was written by Robert Lamm, who is a keyboard player and singer for Chicago. It's about trying to write a song, with the title referring to the time of day: either 3:35 a.m. (25 to 4) or 3:34 a.m. (26 to 4). Lamm explained on The Chris Isaak Hour: "I was living with a bunch of hippies up above Sunset Strip. One of the advantages of this particular house was that it was in the Hollywood Hills and I could look out over the city late at night. I wanted to try to describe the process of writing the song that I was writing. So, 'waiting for the break of day, searching for something to say, flashing lights against the sky' - there was a neon sign across the city. That song came from the fact that it was 25 or 6 to 4 a.m. in the morning when I looked at my watch - I was looking for a line to finish the chorus.

    For some reason I have recently pulled out some old Helmet albums. Love the time signatures on this track.
