SONG REQUEST
Today we have a song request from the talented 
But I know him from his lovely tracks like THIS ONE
He wanted to hear Ænema by Tool , it's a Rock Band, very good, I had the chance to see then in France twice, I went for a dry acoustic arrangement, as raw as it can get. For some reason it took me more time than expected!!
Congratulation on winning 0.5SBD !
The song explore nihilism, the title is a reference to Carl Jung's Ænema, Anima and Animus, the whole album was dedicated to Bill Hicks, a satirist comedian , and some of the words of the song are supposed to be a word for word rant that Bill Hicks had once about LA, like "See you in Arizona Bay"
I decided to change the lyrics a bit too (the kids were at home), I hope that you enjoy !
Tool - Ænema
*Some say the end is near
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this
Nonsense three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks
Here in this hopeless bitter hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any given time, any given day
Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your Prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car
It's a
Nonsense three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks
Here in this hopeless bitter hole we call L.A.
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any given time, any given day
Learn to swim, see you down in Arizona Bay
Some say a comet will fall from the sky
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still
Followed by millions of dumbfounded Lost Sheep
And some say the end is near
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this
Stupid shit, silly shit, stupid shit
One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied
Learn to swim, learn to swim, learn to swim
Mom's gonna fix it all soon
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be
Learn to swim
Flush L Ron Hubbard and
Flush all his clones
Flush all those gun-toting
Hip gangster wannabes
Learn to swim
Flush retro anything
Flush your tattoos
Flush all you junkies and
Flush your short memory
Learn to swim
Flush smiley glad-hands
With hidden agendas
Flush these dysfunctional
Insecure actresses
Learn to swim
'Cause I'm praying for rain
And I'm praying for tidal waves
I wanna see the ground give way
I wanna watch it all go down
Mom please flush it all away
I wanna see it go right in and down
I wanna watch it go right in
Watch you flush it all away
Time to bring it down again
Don't just call me pessimist
Try and read between the lines
I can't imagine why you wouldn't
Welcome any change, my friend
I wanna see it come down
Burn it down
Suck it down
Flush it down*
