John Lennon, Mind Games

We're playing those mind games together,

Pushing barriers, planting seeds,
Playing the mind guerrilla,
Chanting the Mantra peace on earth,

We all been playing those mind games forever,

Some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil.
Doing the mind guerrilla,
Some call it magic, the search for the grail,
Love is the answer and you know that for sure,
Love is flower you got to let it, you got to let it grow,

So keep on playing those mind games together,

Faith in the future outta the now,
You just can't beat on those mind guerrillas,
Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind,

Yeah we're playing those mind games forever,

Projecting our images in space and in time,
Yes is the answer and you know that for sure,
Yes is surrender you got to let it, you got to let it go,

So keep on playing those mind games together,

Doing the ritual dance in the sun,
Millions of mind guerrillas,
Putting their soul power to the karmic wheel,

Keep on playing those mind games forever,

Raising the spirit of peace and love,
Love
I want you to make love, not war, I know you've heard it before

Crazy Horse's Revenge

. . . this corner of the American Old West will be graced
with a 171m-high sculpture of the most successful Native American leader in history: Crazy Horse . . .

. . . It is no accident that Crazy Horse is rising only 25km from white America's most famous patriotic sculpture, Mt Rushmore, depicting the faces of four US presidents, or that Crazy Horse is going to be way, way bigger. From the start, this image was planned to be a political counterpart to Rushmore and to overshadow it.

The scale of this western colossus is mind-boggling. On completion, it will be the world's largest sculpture, dwarfing the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Statue of Liberty. Rushmore's presidents will fit inside Crazy Horse's 26.6m-high head. The image will include a giant tablet bearing a poem about Native American history carved in 1m-high letters. The site already has a sprawling cultural centre at its base, attracting one million visitors a year. (Rushmore scores three million.) And there are plans for a university and medical training centre for Native Americans to be built as part of the complex.
