on stereo/ hard, maar dat spreekt voor zich.
(en ik vind publiek dat mij van harte toejuicht bij het schoonmaken echt een geweldige motivator. Dan lukt de woonkamer en badkamer nog wel. Aplause, geen dank. En m'n buren zijn flex, en die maken nog vaker schoon dan ik, ja toch. leven en laten leven.)
Rockpop, Westfahlenhalle, Dortmund, Germany, 19th December 1980
Hier houd het publiek echt van je, je voelt het gewoon. de dankbaarheid en liefde als jij je stofzuiger nog een keer aanzet, en echt alles doet.

A long time ago came a man on a track Walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
And he put down his load where he thought it was the best
He made a home in the wilderness He built a cabin and a winter store And he plowed up the ground by the cold lake shore
And the other travelers came walking down the track And they never went further, and they never went back
Then came the churches, then came the schools
Then came the lawyers, and then came the rules
Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
And the dirty old track was the telegraph road
Then came the mines, then came the ore Then there was the hard times, then there was a war
Telegraph sang a song about the world outside
Telegraph road got so deep and so wide
Like a rolling river And my radio says tonight it's gonna freeze
People driving home from the factories
There's six lanes of traffic Three lanes moving slow I used to like to go to work, but they shut it down I've got a right to go to work, but there's no work here to be found
Yes, and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed We're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed
And the birds up on the wires and the telegraph poles They can always fly away from this rain and this cold
You can hear them singing out their telegraph code All the way down the telegraph road
You know, I'd sooner forget, but I remember those nights When life was just a bet on a race between the lights
You had your head on my shoulder, you had your hand in my hair
Now you act a little colder, like you don't seem to care
But believe in me, baby, and I'll take you away
From out of this darkness and into the day
From these rivers of headlights, these rivers of rain
From the anger that lives on the streets with these names
'Cause I've run every red light on memory lane
I've seen desperation explode into flames
And I don't want to see it again From all of these signs saying, "sorry, but we're closed" All the way Down the telegraph road
