"SO GET UP" -
when I wrote this poem in a Lisbon cafe in 1994
for my little guest slot on Antena 1,
I had no idea it would eventually reach the ears
of millions of people
(this original mix topped out at #8 on
Billboard's U.K. Indy Dance Charts...and there are about 70 mixes!).
As we head into 2012, whether it is really
the last one here on planet earth or not...
the message is still relevant...Live Life To The Fullest.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
THE END OF THE EARTH IS UPON US -
PRETTY SOON IT’LL ALL TURN TO DUST -
SO GET UP - FORGET THE PAST -
GO OUTSIDE HAVE A BLAST -
GO A THOUSAND MILES IN A JET AIRPLANE-
GO OUT OF YOUR MIND GO INSANE !-
TO A PLACE YOU NEVER BEEN BEFORE -
EAT ICE CREAM OR YOU’LL LICK THE FLOOR -
CUZ, THE END OF THE EARTH IS UPON US -
PRETTY SOON IT’LL ALL TURN TO DUST -
GOODBYE MY FRIENDS -
GOODBYE WORLD
....I’LL SEE YOU IN THE NEXT LIFE..
