Brainwashed



You look like a real human being

But you don't have a mind of your own

Yeah you can walk, you can breathe

You can work, you can stitch you can sew

But you're brainwashed

Yes you are, yes you are

Get down on your knees

Mister you're just brainwashed

You've got a job and a house and a wife

And your kids and your car

Yeah you're been trained just to be

What they want you to be

And be happy to be where you are

Yes you are

Get down on your knees

Get down on your knees

You know the bureaucrats and aristocrats

Are dirty rats for making us what we are, yeah

They're up there, we're down here

You're on the ground and they're up with the stars

All your life they've kicked you around

And pushed you around till you can't take any more

To them you're just a speck of dirt

But you don't want to get up off the floor

Mister you're just brainwashed

They give you social security

Tax saving benefits that grow at maturity

Yeah, you're been trained just to be

What they want you to be

And to do what they want you to

Yes you are, yes you are

Get down on your knees

Bueno, este próximo jueves estaré viendo al señor Ray Davies en Benicassim, si nada lo impide. Espero que interprete algunos temas de los Kinks. Saludos.

Carlos, que envidia me das, menuda suerte. Me imagino que sí interpretará algunas canciones de los Kinks, ya nos contarás, saludos.

Al final estuve en Benicassim viendo a Ray davies interpretando temas de los Kinks, con una potente banda que estuvo a la altura de las canciones, y Ray también, a pesar de su edad. "Lola", "Victoria", "David Watts", "All day and all of the night", "Sunny afternoon", "I´m not like everybody else","You really got me", hasta "Come dancing" tocó, no puedo decir nada más que chapeau por Ray Davies.
