Is this thread just about whether or not Joe did coke? Jesus.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

It took 8 years to get going and I wish it hadn't.

Note where this guy places his line breaks. He's using us as inspiration to write shit drug lyrics for his band.

If nothing else, we've shown that we can still attract new blood that can march in and tell us we're all morons. We ain't past our prime.

No, it is about Strummer writing lyrics that brought attention
to the start of the drug war 40 years ago and how frivolous the actions
of those carrying out that war were.
Police/DEA have no interest in eradicating drugs from our streets.
The more drugs on the street, the more street crime and the more
police job security.
Without heavy and meticulous legislative oversight, we will all
be stuck with a drug infested society forever,
and poor communities under a fake drug war siege.

Well then you've definitely made your point. Thanks for stopping by!

It was about deciphering lyrics but all that charging up the stairs has taken it's toll.

Now here is a guy who knows what he is talking about.
