3/07/1971: το τέλος του Τζιμ Μόρισον ( Doors)

The End

This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend
The end of our elaborate plans
The end of ev'rything that stands
The end

No safety or surprise
The end
I'll never look into your eyes again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need of
some strangers hand
In a desperate land

Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain
There's danger on the edge of town
Ride the king's highway
Weird scenes inside the goldmine
Ride the highway West baby

Ride the snake
Ride the snake
To the lake
To the lake

The ancient lake baby
The snake is long
Seven miles
Ride the snake

He's old
And his skin is cold
The west is the best
The west is the best
Get here and we'll do the rest

The blue bus is calling us
The blue bus is calling us
Driver, where you taking us?

The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall

He went into the room where his sister lived
And then he paid a visit to his brother
And then he walked on down the hall
And he came to a door
And he looked inside
Father?
Yes son
I want to kill you
Mother, I want to.............

Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus

This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend
The end

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me

Ο θάνατος του Τζιμ Μόρισον ρίχνει σε βαρύ πένθος
τη γενιά των "Παιδιών των λουλουδιών".
Τρεις μέρες αργότερα θα πεθάνει και ο αγαπημένος
μικρών τε και μεγάλων τζαζίστας Λούις Αρμστρονγκ.
Στη Ελλάδα η νεολαία της περνάει τα δικά της προβλήματα.
Ο στρατιωτικός νόμος είναι σε πλήρη ισχύ, οι συλλήψεις
των στελεχών των αντιστασιακών οργανώσεων διαδέχονται
η μία την άλλη και ο δικτάτορας Παπαδόπουλος
νιώθει τόσο ισχυρός, ώστε ετοιμάζει τη Νέα Επαναστατική του Κυβέρνηση.
