Ein Musikstück, daß keiner von mir erwartet hätte

Sonst ist der geschätzte Kollege Sandokan für derlei Musikspenden eher zuständig (ich eher für Klassik aller Arten ...), aber angesichts der sich fortsetzenden traurigen Faschingsveranstaltung, genannt Geopolitik, ist es unumgänglich, ein brutum factum ohne Zögern auszusprechen (bzw. einfach rauszusingen):

 

 

You Can't Fix Stupid!

 

 

Lyrics: 

 

I tried once…

Didn’t take.

Tried twice…

Learned better.

 

Everybody got advice these days

Tellin’ you how to live, how to pray

Never walked a mile in your shoes

Still swear they got nothin’ to prove

 

Used to stop, try to explain

Draw it slow, real plain

But some folks nod just to hear

Then go right back to disappearin’ years

 

You can’t fix stupid

No matter how hard you try

You can talk all night

Still won’t reach that mind

You can’t fix stupid

Ain’t hate, ain’t rude

Just truth wearin’ boots

You can’t fix stupid

 

Town full of experts on everything

Never built nothin’, still runnin’ their mouth again

Sound real smart in a borrowed tone

Quotin’ things they never owned

 

Back then I’d waste my breath

Try to save ‘em from themselves

Now I just sip and sit

Let ‘em trip over their own damn wit

 

You can’t fix stupid

Ain’t worth the sweat

Some lessons gotta hurt

Before they’re ever met

You can’t fix stupid

No wrench, no glue

I learned the hard way

It ain’t my job to

 

Two men fightin’ ‘bout who’s to blame

Both lost, both feel the same

Pointin’ fingers, missin’ the mark

Arguin’ loud in the dark

 

I used to jump in, break it up

Try to clean a spill with an empty cup

Now I just lean back, shake my head

Some walls only talk after you hit ‘em instead

 

You can’t fix stupid

But you can walk away

Save your nights

Save your days

You can’t fix stupid

Ain’t cruel, ain’t mean

It’s just somethin’

I don’t carry with me

 

I still believe in learnin’

Still believe in change

But some folks love the fire

More than gettin’ out the flames

 

So if I smile and don’t engage

If I let silence take the stage

Don’t think I missed the point or quit 

I just learned what can’t be fixed

 

You can’t fix stupid

But you can fix your peace

Quit bangin’ on doors

That won’t ever speak

You can’t fix stupid

So I set it free

That problem ain’t mine

It ain’t followin’ me

 

Some things don’t need fightin’… 

Just distance.
