I've always loved the The Shamen track "Boss Drum"
from 1992--
It always seems to me that way too many people out
there are being Too Cool to talk about the things
they care about, but here The SHamen are just going
for it, presenting an enthusiastic torrent of the
kind of wonky thinking you'd encounter on the early
90s rave scene. Some of the key lines, presented
without further comment:

(with corrections)
Activate the rhythm, the rhythm that has always been within
Boss drum, here we go again
Rhythm eternal from a distant time
An echo of long ago
Not yet forgotten, no
Boss drum, in control again
Rhythm eternal for tomorrow's tribe
Making that vital reconnection to the Goddess Mind
Boss Drum motivating Rhythm of Life
Cultural revival - this is survival
Natural magical patterns of percussion
Is the discussion, so listen up close
Let it connect you to the powers that be
With healing rhythmic synergy
Techno tribal and positively primal
Shamanic anarchistic archaic revival
Activate the rhythm, the rhythm that has always been within you
Boss Drum - self explanatory planatory information is the situation
With mystical rhythmic beats taking over and over and over
But then, maybe this works better with the beat going.
