...another Cargo Culture video… As a close friend was leaving the other night, something in our conversation sparked his memory of a pop song dealing with themes of suppressed experience … about an abduction that was really a close encounter portending utopian future realities, thousands of creatures in cities of light without hate … but the man is pressured by the powers-that-be to: Keep it dark!
Found that man reported missing, He wandered in his home. It don’t seem to bad if you consider Just what he’s been through. Seems he met up with a gang of thieves, Who mistook him for a man of means, They locked him up then found he had no money, So they let him go again. Now he’s back at home and happy Just to see the kids.
I wish that I could really tell you All the things that happened to me And all that I have seen. A world full of people their hearts full of joy, Cities of light with no fear of war, And thousands of creatures with happier lives, And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to hide.
Oh, keep it dark.
It seems strange to have to lie, About a world so bright. And tell instead a made-up story, From the world of night.
I wish, that I could really tell you, All the things that happened to me And all that I have seen, A world full of people their hearts full of joy, Cities of light with no fear of war, And thousands of creatures with happier lives, And dreams of a future with meaning and no need to lie, No need to hate, No need to hide.
A light rock song, it describes a man who has been to the future and has seen a bright, happy world where everyone is filled with joy, cities are filled with light, with no fear of war, and all exploitation has ceased as all creatures have happier lives. Once he returns, however, he is pressured to lie about the incident (i.e., to “keep it dark”). Instead he claims that he was kidnapped by thieves who wanted to take his money.[citation needed]. The cover depicts the three wise monkeys.
In the DVD interview accompanying the 2007 re-release of Abacab, the album from which the song comes, composer Tony Bankssaid that “the idea was that this character had to pretend that he’d just been robbed by people and that’s why he’d disappeared for a few weeks, and in fact what had happened [was] he’d been to the future and gone to this fantastic world where everything was wonderful and beautiful and everything… but he couldn’t tell anybody that, because no one would believe him and the powers that be kept him silent.”[citation needed]
The song’s structure is unusual: the rhythm is in a 6/4 time signature, with a distinctly syncopated rhythm guitar part. Lead singer Phil Collins sings in falsetto for certain lines of the song.[citation needed] The pace overall, particularly the drums, is similar to the album’s title track.
I wanna rock your heart and gypsy soul elfismiles Just like way back in the days of old Then magnificently we will float Into the mystic

Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started. They could still get him out of office. But instead, they want mass death. Don’t forget that.
