Lyrics
OLD RADIO VOICE: “…The actual details of the story did
not come to me for some time, until one day I saw a little boy
- perhaps ten years old - driving a huge cart-horse along a
narrow path, whipping it whenever it tried to turn. It struck
me that if only such animals became aware of their strength
we should have no power over them, and that men exploit
animals in much the same way as the rich exploit the
proletariat.”
“One publisher decided to consult the Ministry of
Information, who appear to have warned him, or at any
rate strongly advised him, against publishing it. He wrote:
“The fable does follow so completely the progress of the
Russian Soviets and their two dictators, that it can apply
only to Russia. It would be less offensive if the predominant
cast in the fable were not pigs!”
George Orwell, PRE FA CE TO ‘ANI M AL FARM’
Floating down, the sound is loud
Nothing seems to move around
The pigs have flown, the grass is grown
And now you're lonely on your own
You pick the place, I'll choose the time
Flickering between this rhymes
You don't care to be on time
And I don't know the reason why
You find the words to say goodbye
Laughter echoes in your eyes
And something's creeping up my spine
And nothing moves under the sky
Me and you
After all we've got to do
I wish there was something I could say or do
All alone, in my blue
I left and went away
And I've never heard you say:
- I love you – In the sunshine
To keep good love from going wrong
The sea was smiling and we…
It's not so fair to deny me…
Me…
