There are so many things to take into account - your ambition, your ego, the press, the consumers. You can never be sure that you'll be on top of the pile again.

Youre Just A No Account
S. cahn / s. chaplin
Youre just a no account
You never will amount to nothin at all
When there is work to do and someone yells for you
You dont hear them call
The good lord set aside his sundays
For folks to rest
More that one days rest is wrong
You start restin sunday and rest so hard
Youre tired the whole week long
Youre just a no account
You never will amount to nothin at all
I just cant figure how each time you milk the cow
The tit gets so small
We got machines to do your work for you
But you wont press the button on the wall
Youre just a no account
You never will amount to nothin at all
Youre just a no account
You never will amount to nothinal all
I just cant figure how each time you milk the cow
The tit gets so small
We got machines to do your work for you
But you wont press the button on the wall
Youre just a no account
You never will amount to nothin at all

Ambition
Matlock
Im the kind of girl
I want that whole wide world
Nothing more nothing less
I dont want second best
Ah but my associates
Why theyre no more than opiates
Always dragging me down
Dash my hopes to the ground
But they must be kidding
Or wishful thinking
Adding fuel to the fire
Of my ambition
Ill make a date
Oh no I wont be late
And why of course hell be there
Hell promise hell sweur
But all I ever find
Been spun that same old line
Its happened time and time again before
But these things and more
Widen the score
And its one up for ambition
I really have a go
You know youve got to hand it to me
Ive got a heart of gold
But Im a wolf in muttons clothes
Someday my time will come
Ill feel I cant go on
I may not care or even know its there
But then Ill have my fun
So till then just press on
Dont lose your grip
Dont lose ambition

Imports create competition and keep domestic industry more responsive to consumers. In the United States, we import everything consumers want. So why not pharmaceuticals?

Whether the medium is ready for consumers is better judged by those consumers. I sometimes read online - but not often. The stigma is attached to pay scales. Much online publication is no pay or small pay.

The Enemy Within
Americans are reminded of terror
In newspapers, radio and on TV
Into “Hi-Def “screens they stare
At Beck, Palin and Sean Hannity
They’re feed a steady diet of fear
As, yellow alert scale moves to red
Endless images of 911 year after year
Whilst Afghans pile-up their dead
It’s time to start asking for the truth
Time to hold those who’ve lied account
We must listen to the voices of our youth
‘Fore their body counts begin to mount
We must hold account all those that sin
At last,
Find peace by purging the enemy within

In the future, when we get serious about executing things correctly, this thing will be very easy to do. If we find out that this technique does not work, I don't intend to step on dead bodies to achieve something because I don't have that kind of ambition. My ambition is to help people.

Life's Small Joy
Smile and give others your smile
Let others enjoy in trouble's pile
Love 'n be loved my dear
This is what makes life rare
Help and get help all along
Give and take when things are wrong
And then you'll see you'll enjoy
All life's small fun 'n joy
And once if you'll learn to count
Life's joy deposited in your account
Then you'll see happiness all around
Surrounding you with joy on the ground.

Economy Is Dirty
If you fevour the labour
You tax the consumers.
If you fevour the consumers,
You tax the labour.
To fevour the profit
You tax both of them.
It is economy, dirty.

Set The Fire!
tear down the house!
throw all of your possessions
on the pile...
the possessions that owned you!
all of your memories,
your prejudices, your acts of
vengeance and greed...
all the things you think you needed...
your rights, your wrongs,
your halo, your guns...
your patriotism, your pride,
and the doors you locked...
all on the pile,
without looking back...
set the fire!

Obviously, I've seen what the press has done to my cousins. I would never let that rule my life, but I'm not the kind of person to rebel or do things. I don't know. I don't let the potential for bad press dictate who I am, but I keep that in mind. How can you not?

We’re poor people Your Honour
We get some bones the dogs didn’t want
We know what you’ll say so just don’t
We get some nice music from your studio
And really nice soc-vision video
Economically speaking
We are the secondary consumers
Scattered around different containers
Underbridge death entertainers
And it’s really not our fault
We are sort of under default
On your roaring statistic scales
Of whatever remains or prevails
Note: ‘secondary consumers’ is a viable economic term for people who use used-up products

Your Bank Account
Your bank account might have a million
but your emotional account has not a zillion..
For if you place more value on money
you will not develop how to be funny, or have a honey.
For if that is your identity
you will live a life of poverty—
Poverty in the sense of 'me & me'
which is not so pretty.
Money can't buy you a lot of things,
it might get off the hook in court in the end.
But does it really buy you happiness?
Possibly if you are in the now
sometimes it's better to be a cow.

It will not be amiss to distinguish the three kinds and, as it were, grades of ambition in mankind. The first is of those who desire to extend their own power in their native country, a vulgar and degenerate kind. The second is of those who labor to extend the power and dominion of their country among men. This certainly has more dignity, though not less covetousness. But if a man endeavor to establish and extend the power and dominion of the human race itself over the universe, his ambition (if ambition it can be called) is without doubt both a more wholesome and a more noble thing than the other two. Now the empire of man over things depends wholly on the arts and sciences.
