Lyrics

Thompson, Ramsden, Kozlov: We will destroy the ? And the ? machine this year Next year we will have a turn with a poor son And the third year we'll make more of ? Signed, Cabbage Wing

Thompson: Dear Mel, Since I was in Paris for ?, so much for my delayed answer. You and your friends seem to have "left lots of feathers" as we would say in German.

Thompson, Ramsden, Kozlov: "All nine men were hanged Hundreds transported and in print in prison"

Thompson: I only hope that the decision to change A&L ? also physically will bring you all some harmony. I must say that I have watched the trouble with a lot of sad feelings.

Thompson, Ramsden, Kozlov: Sir Kenneth Clark Sir Kenneth Clark

Mel Ramsden: "Alas... the peasants stormed the cathedral and razed it to the ground." (get out of the way)

Thompson, Ramsden, Kozlov: When great men disagree About supremacy ? do they want more men To aid and extend assistance In setting up their self-will power And what they do the poor devour

Thompson: Concerning the financial help you ask for, I still have all the works I bought from you. Plus a number of other A&L things and I am unfortunately--honestly--not able to help you out of my own pocket. I quite sorry for that. Although, after all that has been going on within A&L, it seems rather difficult to use the commercial art system presently, naturally. However I hope you will find some better source.

All best wishes for you and your family, A lot of good hospitality in the old world, And best regards from God, Paul

Kathryn Bigelow: Let's not pretend: most of the power and clout in the artworld is in the hands of fascists of one kind or another. Fascist interpretation and use of piping production in its fiefdom must only enjoy neighbourly relations with the self-interpretations of the 'producers'. Question: is Weltanschauung an intrinsically fascist concept?
