N'obliez Jamais

This is our first official post for the New Year and what better post in the aftermath of OccupyOakland Moving Day and #SolidaritySunday than a song by one of the rock Icons of the 20th century? We give you Joe Cocker singing "N'oubliez Jamais" which in French means "Never Forget."

Title: Joe Cocker - N'oubliez Jamais lyrics
Artist: Joe Cocker Lyrics
Writer: Jim Gregan, Russ Kunkel

Papa, why do you play all the same old songs
Why do you sing with the melody
'Cause down on the street something' goin' on
There's a brand new beat and a brand new song

In my life there was so much anger
Still I have no regrets
Just like you, I was such a rebel
So dance your own dance and never forget

CHORUS:
N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais

It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

Mama, why do you dance to the same old songs
Why do you sing only harmony
'Cause down on the street something's goin' on

There's a brand new beat and a brand new song

In my heart there's a young girls passion
For a life long duet
Someday soon someone's smile will haunt you
So sing your own song and never forget


N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say

Every generation has its way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais

#J28 OccupyOakland Moving Day

What is this game
Searching for love or fame
That's all the same
One of this days
You say that
Love will be the cure
I'm not so sure

N'oubliez jamais
I heard my father say
Every generation has its way
A need to disobey
N'oubliez jamais
It's in your destiny
A need to disagree
When rules get in the way
N'oubliez jamais
