When we've been dead ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun.... ahahaha

The writer of that song was a slave ship captain. He truly felt wretched about horible acts he commited in the course of his duties` That is the whole point of the song. Seems reasonable to me.

You do know it is an autobiography?

It is Masochistic and entirely fitting for fear-based ideologies of any kind, not just theologies. It is inspiring to herds that view others as their leaders and betters in possession of superior knowledge and judgment. It is the consumate dependency song.

Funny, that label just reminded me of a dear friend, with the cutest sense of humor who called 'My Way' the 'Depends song'. I thought of it more as the Testosterone Song and have avoided performing it for that reason. The idea of wearing a large depends over my slacks and doing it with sight gags is reallly tempting though.
