Happy U2 Day!!!


I know I'm now three albums (plus Passengers) behind on my album reviews, but I'd like to take a moment and wish everyone a happy U2 day. I only worked a 1/2 day, since it should be a national holiday.

Everyone needs to go out right now and buy both versions of the disc, and here is why: Simple studio album, because it fits nicely on the shelf and it includes lyrics. Extended version because the DVD kicks a$$ and this version includes a book that it worth the price alone AS WELL AS the extra track "Fast Cars".

The biggest negative right now: No lyrics available for Fast Cars.

DOH!

Fast Cars

My cell is ringing, no ID
I need to know who's calling
My garden's overgrown
I go out on my belly crawling
I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC
I got the nightly news
To get to know the enemy

All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your face in a locket
Picture in my pocket
I take a pill to stop it

I know these fast cars
Will do me no good

I'm going nowhere
Where I am it is a lot of fun
They're in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch 'em shadow box
Check the stocks, I'm in detox
Want the lot of what you've got
If what you've got can make this stop

All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket
I take a pill to stop it

I know these fast cars
Will do me no good

(Shy oh sigh)

Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Don't you worry 'bout your mind
You should worry about the day
That the pain it goes away
You know I miss mine sometimes

(Is silence so much to be?)

(Silence) come on

There is no fiction
That will truly fit the situation
I'm documenting every detail
Every conversation
I'm not used to talking to somebody in a body
Somebody in a body
Somebody in a body

(How about that?)
(That's pretty cool)
