Tien Engelse mijlen met TOOL

24 APR 2009

Ik ben een TOOL-adept. Met TOOL op de headset ga je sowieso harder lopen. Neem nou Right in Two. Da’s een nummer dat werkt als amfetamine.

Luister naar de MP3 stream en lees ondertussen de lyrics mee. Besluit je met zo’n nummer op je iPod tot een plichtmatig rondje om de (vinex)wijk waarin je woont? Nee toch! Met TOOL op je trommelvliezen wil je draven.

Morgenochtend vroeg staan er tien Engelse mijlen in m’n agenda. En TOOL zorgt er (onder andere met Right in Two) voor dat ik na één uur en tien minuten weer thuis komt.

Angels on the sideline
Puzzled and amused
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now they’re all confused

Don’t these talking monkeys know that
Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this Holy Garden, silly monkeys
Where there’s one, you’re bound to divide it
Right in two

Angels on the sideline
Baffled and confused
Father blessed them all with reason
And this is what they choose

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs
They forge a blade
And where there’s one
they’re bound to divide it
Right in two
Right in two

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs
They make a club
And beat their brother down
How they survive, so misguided is a mystery

Repugnant is a creature
Who would squander the ability
To lift an eye to heaven
Conscious of his fleeting time here

Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two

Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky
Fight over life, over blood, over prayer
Over head and light
Fight over love, over sun
Over another
Fight

Angels on the sideline again
Benched along with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline again
Wondering when this tug of war will end

Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cut it all right in two

Right in two!

Right in two.
