My leader told me to jump in the river
The river was deep and the weather was winter
After a sailer very kindly saved me
My leader told me, you'd better take it easy
I took it so easy my leader called me lazy
Through the lack of red meat
Everything was getting hazy
Friends looked at me and said,
Man, you gotta be crazy
Oh, oh leader
My leader said son you'd better get yourself together
Never mind the fools who know what we're getting into
But a forty mile walk would do us both a world of good
And he sat down and watched me take off down the road
Well, I walked so far my feet began to bleed
If this was good for me I just couldn't see it
A motorist picked me up and said
Look man, you must be crazy
Oh, oh leader
Oh, oh leader
My leader came to see me in a hospital bed
Well at least I really knew that my leader really cared
After giving me a second-hand roach
He said where's your donation man,
It's all for a good cause.
He left me all alone to work the riddle out
But I just couldn't make it so I began to shout
They stuck a hypodermic deep down into me
Said, look out nurse I think we got a loony
Oh, oh leader
Okay baby follow me now
Follow your leader
All right
Now here I sit in a state-run asylum
Limitless, friendless but much more together
I decided to do some good book readin'
About the art of people leadin'
Now I'm the leader and they're being led
What's the matter if they're crazy till you hear what I've said
Being the leader is really where it's at
But just how long can a good thing last
Oh, oh leader
Oh, oh leader
Now listen to this baby
This is the year of the guru
Now the thing to do is to ask yourself
What can a guru do for me?
Then you say to yourself
I gotta get a guru
Gli Animals furono una band rock britannica formatasi a Newcastle upon Tyne nel 1962. Il loro sound, caratterizzato da influenze blues e rhythm and blues, li portò al successo internazionale negli anni '60. Il gruppo era composto da Eric Burdon (voce), Alan Price (tastiere, organo), Hilton Valentine (chitarra), Chas Chandler (basso) e John Steel (batteria). Tra i loro successi più famosi figurano "House of the Rising Sun", "We Gotta Get Out of This Place" e "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
