Keep All Your Friends

Lyrics

'And we will be fed With breakfast in bed And served by a fat millionaire'

'A contradiction is the norm for breaking — Dialectically'

'It’s not the social content It’s always the political form' ('Keep all your friends..')

To fail to perceive the difference Is to fail to perceive the difference Between the meaningless pattern Of political occurrence And historical meaning In social life

To stipulate the difference Is to fail to perceive the difference Between boundary postulation And boundary location

'And we will be fed With breakfast in bed And served by a fat millionaire'

Retrospectives

Art & Language, 1981

The first and last verse is a song from the Land of Cockayne. The rest is fragmentary and ‘theoretical’, left-wing sounding ... But class antagonistic? Is it the social content of our lives that determines its political form? Is the former strongly involved with the latter or can they be separated?
