Cookie Jar

I think Cookie Jar is such a great song. I was just wondering about everyone else. It’s hard for me to watch TV without thinking of this song.- “ It was magic at first, when they spoke without sound, but now this world is gonna hurt, better turn that thing down, turn it around.”

Well, I love all of his songs, but I agree with what you’ve said about, Cookie Jar and I also love these lyrics:

And I would turn on the tv
But it’s so embarrassing
To see all the other people
Don’t even know what they mean

It was you, it was me, it was every man
We’ve all got the blood on our hands
We only receive what we demand
And if we want hell then hell is what we’ll have

All about responsibility; “karma”; a reflection; a response, an effect of an action…some call it fate; destiny…
And I turned that thing down awhile ago, and it’s been mostly off for the last few years, besides some “kid shows” while muting the commercials.

I’m not a big TV fan, either.  I almost never watch the news. (“Why don’t the newscasters cry when they read about people who die?”)

There are some good and educational shows, but you sure have to be selective.  The commercials are what really make me crazy.

I love the message in all of Jack’s songs, Cookie Jar included!
