The journalists usually started things off by asking about the avant-garde. ?? So, what's so good about new? they'd ask. ?? Well, new is?? interesting. ?? And what, they would say, is so good about interesting? ?? Well, interesting is, you know?? it's?? interesting. It's like?? being awake, you know, I'm treading water now. ?? And what is so good about being awake? they'd say. Finally I got the hang of this: never answer a question in Israel, always answer by asking another question. But the Israelis were vey curious about the Gulf War and what Americans had thought about it, and I tried to think of a good question to ask and answer to this, but what was really on my mind was that the week before I had myself been testing explosives in a parking lot in Tel Aviv. Now this happened because I had brought some small stage bombs to Israel as props for this performance and the Israeli promoter was very interested in them. And it turned out that he was on weekend duty on one of the bomb squads, and bombs were also something of a hobby during the week. So I said: ?? Look, you know, these bombs are nothing special, just, just a little smoke And he said: ?? Well, we can get much better things for you. And I said: ?? No really, these are fine?? And he said: ?? No but it should be big, theatrical. It should make an impression, I mean you really just the right bomb. And so one morning he arranged to have about fifty small bombs delivered to a parking lot, and since he looked on it as a sort of special surprise favor, I couldn't really refuse, so we are on this parking lot testing the bombs, Related Lyrics Random lyrics: The Soul Is A Bird, The Ugly One With The Jewels, Tightrope, Walking And Falling, Washington Street, White Lily, Anything But Ordinary, Complicated, Im With You, Losing Grip, Mobile, My World, Naked, Nobodys Fool, Sk8er Boi, Things Ill Never Say, Tomorrow, To Much To Ask, Dont Tell Me, Fall to Pieces, Forgotten, Freak Out, He Wasnt, My Happy Ending, Nobodys Home, Slipped Away, Take Me Away, Together, Im With You, Things Ill Never Say, Unwanted, I Dont Give, I Always Get What I Want, Knockin On Heavens Door, Get Over It, Come Sunday Morning, Happy Birthday, Hell To Pay, Imagining You, Its Alright, Its Ok, Kiss Me Goodbye, Mother Tongue, Problem Child, Who Are They To Say, Will You Still Love Me, Blood and Honey, Enigma (Give a Bit of MMH to Me), Follow Me, Lili Marleen, Never Trust a Pretty Face, Other Anderson Laurie song Lyrics Beautiful Pea Green Boat Lyrics Beautiful Red Dress Lyrics Big Science Lyrics Blue Lagoon Lyrics Born, Never Asked Lyrics Bright Red Lyrics Broken Lyrics Coolsville Lyrics Dark Angel Lyrics Excellent Birds Lyrics Freefall Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Laurie Freelove Lyrics Laurie Hugh Lyrics Laurie London Lyrics Laurnea Lyrics Hill Lauryn Lyrics Lauryn Hill Lyrics Lauryn Hill & Bob Marley Lyrics Lauryn Hill & Tanya Blount Lyrics Lauryn Hill And Bob Marley Lyrics Lauryn Hill f Carlos Santana Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
