Thanks, Mick, this is awesome. Apparently, thankfully, wonderfully, The Stones don't think it's too late to change the world with music. They've got my support, and a bit of my hard earned money. I'm behind them 100% of the way, and hope you'll buy this album to say thanks.

The lyrics from Sweet Neo Con, from the Rolling Stones’ new album, A Bigger Bang:

You ride around your white castle,
On your little white horse
You lie to your people,
and blame it on your war of course
You call yourself a Christian,
I call you a hypocrite
You call yourself a patriot,
well I think you're full of shit.

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
What path have you led them on?
Oh, sweet Neo Con,
Is it time for the atom bomb?
You parade around in costume,
Expecting to be believed
But as the body bags stack up,
We believe we've been deceived
The horror you've unleashed,
Will backfire with more grief
When will you ever learn,
Sweet Neo Con,
as the world burns?

Oh, sweet Neo Con,
What path have you led them on?
Oh, sweet Neo Con,
Is it time for the atom bomb?
Oh, sweet Neo Con,
What path have you led them on?
Oh, sweet Neo Con,
Is it time to drop the bomb?
How come you're so wrong?
My sweet neo-con,
where's the money gone,
in the Pentagon.

It's liberty for all,
democracy's our style,
[\*unless you are against us,
then it's prison without trial.\*](http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/09/09/AR2005090901807.html)
