Government is operated by deeply embedded, hopelessly entangled bureaus where nothing is accomplished because the function of the bureau is to intercept every living idea and smother it.

No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!

The Party's Over (Hopelessly In Love)
Journey
(Steve Perry)
From "Captured"
You never call me up
when I'm alone at night
What can this poor boy do
when he's hopelessly in love with you
So I will tell you now
This love is falling down
Just what more can I do
When I'm hopelessly in love with you
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love with you
So I will tell you this
Our love is in abyss
Just what more can I do
When I'm hopelessly in love with you
You never call me up
When I'm alone at night
What can a poor boy do
When he's hopelessly in love with you
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love with you
Hopelessly in love
Hopelessly in love
I'm hopelessly in love with you
Ooh bye bye baby
The party's over
I have gone away
The party's over
I have gone away
The party's over
Over
The party's over
I have gone away
(Repeat and fade away)

U Got Me Bugged
Since you came around
Wigglin under my skin
Ive been lost in the lost n found
Feeling like a helpless pin
U got me bug bug bug bug bugged
Girl I dont know what to do
U got me bug bug bug bug bugged
You fluttered on down
As graceful as can be
Then you stuck in the needle
And sucked my blood
It was the loveage that came over me
U got me bug bug bug bug bugged
I dont know what to do
U got me bug bug bug bug bugged
Im always bugged over you
Now Im hopelessly entangled
In the web of love you dangled
Helpless like a worm watch me twist and squirm
Your love has left me strangled
U got me bug bug bug bug bugged
Girl, I dont know what to do
U got me bug bug bug bug bugged
Girl, Im all bugged out over you
You got me bug bug bug bug
Now Im hopelessly entangled
In the web of love you dangled
Should have trusted sick fear
Now you stepped out on my tail
Your love has left me strangled
You got me bug bug bug bug

To take an analogy: if we say that a democratic government is the best kind of government, we mean that it most completely fulfills the highest function of a government - the realisation of the will of the people.

Shackled To Depression
Shackled to depression
Intertwined, amongst my veins
Self worth, self love
Are lost, within the pain
Anguish and shattered dreams
Lie embedded in my heart
A glimpse of personal torture
Revealed, within the art
A medicated mind
Does it offer resolution?
Candy coated prescriptions
Swallowed, without solution
Blind to the rising sun
Of opportunity, to thrive
Another breath inhaled
Without purpose, without drive
Shackled to depression
Consumed by failure, and disgrace
A crying soul unseen
I walk invisible, without face

Hopelessly Devoted To You
(john farrar)
Guess mine is not the first heart broken
My eyes are not the first to cry
Im not the first to know
Theres just no getting over you
You know Im just a fool whos willing
To sit around and wait for you
But, baby, cant you see
Theres nothing else for me to do?
Im hopelessly devoted to you
But now theres nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
Im out of my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying, fool, forget him.
My heart is saying, dont let go.
Hold on till the end.
And thats what I intend to do
Im hopelessly devoted to you
But now theres nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
Im out of my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

Institutions - government, churches, industries, and the like - have properly no other function than to contribute to human freedom; and in so far as they fail, on the whole, to perform this function, they are wrong and need reconstruction.

The Other Man
Lying on the bed
Entangled in his arms
I dream of you
Oh! what a sweet sleep
In silent tranquility
I dream of you
Loving or longing?
Lust and desire
Passions on fire…
I dream of you
Long to bear your child
No strings attached
Living in fantasy
I dream of you
Feelings of guilt
Subdued emotions…
Hopelessly, helplessly
I dream of you
How about you, my dear
Do you dream too? !

Television of course actually started in Britain in 1936, and it was a monopoly, and there was only one broadcaster and it operated on a license which is not the same as a government grant.

The world runs on individuals pursuing their self interests. The great achievements of civilization have not come from government bureaus. Einstein didn't construct his theory under order from a, from a bureaucrat. Henry Ford didn't revolutionize the automobile industry that way.

Hopelessly
Astley/fisher
I walk the wire every night
I cant decide between wrong and right
Ive lost control over the thing I do
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
Now the one who never took a chance
Becomes a victim of circumstance
Ive lost my way, now Im so confused
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
All my dreams are far behind me
They dont matter any more
I dont care about the things I could lose
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
Now the one who always played it safe
Becomes another whos lost his way
I cant believe it, though I know its true
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
And all my dreams begin to blind me
And I was so confused
And I dont care about the things I could lose
Cos Im hopelessly falling in love with you
Im not gonna fight it, Im gonna choose
To hopelessly fall, oh yeah
You know Ill hopelessly fall in love, with you

What can this poor boy do,

This love is fallin' down.

Our love is in a fix.

I don't think the government is out to get me or help someone else get me but it wouldn't surprise me if they were out to sell me something or help someone else sell me something. I mean, why else would the Census Bureau want to know my telephone number?

Hopelessly In Love
Sometimes we fall that little further
and become hopelessly in love.
Cupid shoots his arrow a little deeper
than he really intended to
and you fall head over heels
hopelessly in love
and there is nothing you can do.
Everywhere everything is singing
from the birds to the leaves on the trees.
Your heart beats rapidly
every time you see them pass by.
You’re hopelessly in love
with that special dream,
always hoping above hope
that you will catch their eye.
Your head is amongst the clouds
day after day.
Then they stop and smile at you,
you smile back and whispery say
“I am hopelessly in love with you.”

Endlessly
there's a part in me you'll never know
the only thing I'll never show
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes
It's plain to see it's trying to speak
cherished dreams forever asleep
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
if the moment ever comes
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything
but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
but the moment never comes

In Australia, they set up a special fund to kick films off. It was quite an enlightened sort of move. You could go to this government bureau with scripts and and get finance for films.
