Listening to The Stones' "Gimme Shelter" while reading Election coverage. A bad mix.

[Miles Archer]

Purely by coincidence...I have "Grrrr" playing in iTunes and "Gimme Shelter" just came on. And I'm reading about Trump and Comey and Weiner and those lyrics are so in sync with this whole fucking election that I want to vomit, and more than once.

Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Ooh, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder yeah!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away yea
The floods is threat'ning
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or…

1. You need to listen

to Happy or She's a Rainbow.

3. Cheer up! Listen to "Sympathy for the Devil"!

or maybe Talking Heads "Life During Wartime".

Turn that attitude right around.

4. Bwahaha!

As long as it's the Stones, because let's face it...2016 has been the Altamont of Presidential elections.
