Get up, Stand up, Dont give up the fight! ( lyrics: Bob Marley)

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!

Preacherman, don't tell me,
Heaven is under the earth.
I know you don't know
What life is really worth.
It's not all that glitters is gold;
'Alf the story has never been told:
So now you see the light, eh!
Stand up for your rights. Come on!

Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!
Get up, stand up: stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up: don't give up the fight!

Most people think,
Great God will come from the skies,
Take away everything
And make everybody feel high.
But if you know what life is worth,
You will look for yours on earth:
And now you see the light,
You stand up for your rights. Jah!

Get up, stand up! (Jah, Jah!)
Stand up for your rights! (Oh-hoo!)
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
Don't give up the fight! (Life is your right!)
Get up, stand up! (So we can't give up the fight!)
Stand up for your rights! (Lord, Lord!)
Get up, stand up! (Keep on struggling on!)
Don't give up the fight! (Yeah!)

We sick an' tired of-a your ism-skism game -
Dyin' 'n' goin' to heaven in-a Jesus' name, Lord.
We know when we understand:
Almighty God is a living man.
You can fool some people sometimes,
But you can't fool all the people all the time.
So now we see the light (What you gonna do?),
We gonna stand up for our rights! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!)

So you better:
Get up, stand up! (In the morning! Git it up!)
Stand up for your rights! (Stand up for our rights!)
Get up, stand up!
Don't give up the fight! (Don't give it up, don't give it up!)
Get up, stand up! (Get up, stand up!)
Stand up for your rights! (Get up, stand up!)
Get up, stand up! ( ... )
Don't give up the fight! (Get up, stand up!)
Get up, stand up! ( ... )
Stand up for your rights!
Get up, stand up!
Don't give up the fight!

Last week at chennai!!!!

July 1st week was my last week in chennai.....

It was eventful. Shootings were going in beach 50metres away from apartment - "Sarvam". Was very happy to see Trisha very close by.

Lorry strike and Diesel shortage delayed the movement of goods from chennai to Tvm. So got held up in chennai for more than a week.

Coming back to Bangalore was on Matiz. My seven and a half year old car was smooth through out 350kms... It was a very good ride. Gave lift to a police woman to krishnagiri. She was called for duty as PMK leader Kaduvetti Guru was arrested. So i got a company.

Only bad thing was lorry strike was called off previous night - so from Hosur to bangalore it was full of lorries and that dampened the speed a little!!!

Dasavatharam - final comments!!!

Finally I decided to see dasavatharam again to give a good review... Very rarely me and my wife go for films together... ( i always see films alone!). We decided to see dasavatharam on July 1st week and booked the tickets online in chennai.

but fate struck... because of lorry strike... petrol pumps had huge queue and i could not fill petrol on time, i called my friend and asked him to go and see the film. so a second try on dasavatharam did not work out!

but now - thinking again - i seem to like the film. Most importantly I have started liking the songs!
