Pet Shop Boys "The Dictator Decides"

 

(note- the only version on youtube has a pulsating ball, and some folks get sick

but it's on Spotify

 

this was released shortly before the election of Trump, however, it probably refers to the

similar person in Korea.

 

some of the lyrics © Neil Tennant/Chris Lowe Pet Shop Boys

 

"will someone please say the unsayable?

Will someone please tell me I'm wrong?
I live every day like a sad beast f prey

  For I have to appear to be strong

and that's wrong

I'm too weak to be strong

 

Today I met with the generals

and the head of my secret police

Discussing conspiracies and prison facilities

For opponents I can never release

and there'll be no peace

until they're released

 

Of course I'm in league with the army

It's not like I've got any choice

They officially adore me ...

But gunpoint has a firm voice

 

the joke is I'm not even a demagogue

Have you heard me giving a speech?
My facts are invented

I sound quite demented

So deluded it beggars belief

It would be such a relief not to give another speech

....

Lana is our modern day Edith Piaf. Totally unique. a mixture of Brian WIlson Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Gram Parsons, Elton & Bernie. Born to Die/Paradise is comparable to Elton's Captain Fantastic. All the records need to be listened whole. Waiting for a box set vinyl of all 400 songs not on any lp
