Ohh..that reminds me of the commie "Long Live The First of May" and "Proletarians of the World Unite". And parades in the streets (compulsory ones).

It still is a Labour Day in Poland (and beginning of a long weekend). No Labour Day on 1st May in Ireland

And I thought the first of May was about celebrating life and dancing around the Maypole....They sure do know how to suck the fun out of everything in Turkey.

Speaking of sucking the fun out of everything...where are those BSB's?????

They are busy recording an updated version of one of their biggest hits, "I want it the Turkish way".

There was a headline on the news asking "Labour day or police day?", seeing as May 1 seems to be a day for the police to swing their clubs at random people in the street.

Yes. For the ones who dont remember, I recall the lyrics to have been something like this


You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it the Turkish way

But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to the E.U.
When you say
That I want it the BED west way

Tell me why
Ain't nothing but conspiracy
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but ridicule
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it the BED west way.
