Ed’s Generation
So, Pepsi is back in fashion and Ed Miliband is now Roger Daltrey. The buzz phrase for the speech was ‘our generation’ (according to Mr Paul Waugh appearing at least 35 times, with a few mentions of ‘my generation’ too) and oddly, this made me think of Limp Bizkit. Not many things do, it must be said, but I remember them having a pretty crap tune called ‘My Generation’ and the chorus seems particularly apt.
If only Ed had gone for this, he might have eclipsed his brother.
“Who gets the blame, you get the blame and I get the blame.
Who gets the blame, you get the blame and I get the blame, but do you think we can fly?
Do you think we can fly?
Do yoooooooou think we can fly?
Well I do, I do……FLY!”
JFK-esque like only Fred Durst can do.
Also, the line “Hey kid, take my advice, ya don’t wanna step into a big pile of shit. The captain is drunk, your world is titanic” sums up Labour’s election campaign quite aptly.
