If true, I don’t think it is a good decision. Why do away with a wellknown brand nameand change it to a mysterious X?
I posted earlier a link to this album, which Elon listened to every day for many years
For a price I’d do about anything
Except pull the trigger
For that I’d need a pretty good cause
Then I heard of Dr. X
The man with the cure
Just watch the television
Yeah, you’ll see there’s something going on
Got no love for politicians
Or that crazy scene in D.C.
It’s just a power mad town
But the time is ripe for changes
There’s a growing feeling
That taking a chance on a new kind of vision is due
I used to trust the media
To tell me the truth, tell us the truth
But now I’ve seen the payoffs
Everywhere I look
Who do you trust when everyone’s a crook?
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Revolution calling you
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Gotta make a change
Gotta push, gotta push it on through
I’m tired of all this bullshit
They keep selling me on T.V.
About the communist plan
And all the shady preachers
Begging for my cash
Swiss bank accounts while giving their
Secretaries the slam
They’re all in Penthouse now
Or Playboy magazine, million dollar stories to tell
I guess Warhol wasn’t wrong
Fame fifteen minutes long
Everyone’s using everybody, making the sale
I used to think
That only America’s way, way was right
But now the holy dollar rules everybody’s lives
Gotta make a million doesn’t matter who dies
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Revolution calling you
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Gotta make a change
Gotta push, gotta push it on through
I used to trust the media
To tell me the truth, tell us the truth
But now I’ve seen the payoffs
Everywhere I look
Who do you trust when everyone’s a crook?
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Revolution calling you
Revolution calling
Revolution calling
Gotta make a change
Gotta push, gotta push it on through
I Heard It On The X - ZZ Top
Do you remember back in 1966?
Country Jesus, hillbilly blues where I got my licks
From coast to coast and line to line, in every county there
Talkin’ ‘bout that outlaw X, he’s cuttin’ through the air
Anywhere, y’all
Everywhere, y’all
I heard it, I heard it
I heard it on the X
Alright
We can all thank Doctor B, he stepped across the line
With lots of watts, he took control the first one of its kind
So listen to your radio most each and every night
‘Cause if you don’t, I’m sure you won’t get to feelin’ right
Anywhere, y’all
Everywhere, y’all
I heard it, I heard it
I heard it on the X, yeah
Oh, yeah, whoa
Come on, come on
Oh
Yeah, come on
Facebook changed to Meta…….no big deal.
…….
Even Old New York was once New Amsterdam.
It will always the the twit, and he the head twit.
Kind of like New Coke.
Wow all that money and you throw away the brand name (and those birds).
“Why do away with a wellknown brand nameand change it to a mysterious X?”
Yeh, stupid move IMO but its not my money.
Birds Tweet. What do X’s do?
They sue you for half of all you have. LOL
Maybe Tweet-X would’ve been a better compromise
Insane. One of the best brands out there.
Why they changed it I can’t say
People just liked it better that way
Very risky, at best. Obviously he wants to expand what Twitter does, into an Amazon/PayPal competitor in addition to a message board, but I'm not sure everyone else is interested in that. If I used Twitter much I would feel like the Borg is taking over. Maybe it is.
Good call, lyrics match up well. Love ZZ Top, have seen them in concert twice and have many of their CD’s, but that is actually one of my least favorite songs.
Why they changed it I can't say.
Twitter should die.
El Rayo X
I like it.
