Political Science Lyrics

Artist: Randy Newman
Album: Sail Away

No one likes us
I don't know why.
We may not be perfect
But heaven knows we try.
But all around even our old friends put us down.
Let's drop the big one and see what happens.

We give them money
But are they grateful?
No they're spiteful
And they're hateful.
They don't respect us so let's surprise them;
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them.

Now Asia's crowded
And Europe's too old.
Africa's far too hot,
And Canada's too cold.
And South America stole our name.
Let's drop the big one; there'll be no one left to blame us.

Bridge:
We'll save Australia;
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo.
We'll build an all-American amusement park there;
They've got surfing, too.

Well, boom goes London,
And boom Paris.
More room for you
And more room for me.
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town.
Oh, how peaceful it'll be;
We'll set everybody free;
You'll have Japanese kimonos, baby,
There'll be Italian shoes for me.
They all hate us anyhow,
So let's drop the big one now.
Let's drop the big one now.

On NPR a British commentator said he couldn't understand why people said Americans Have No Sense of Irony. Then he played Let's Drop the Big One. Yes, RN our prince of irony - hooray for him.

A lack of measurement has occurred in the political science. In order to understanding this argument, it is necessary to answer these questions.
1. Data is goods, isn't it?
2. How does the mechanism of the data market work?
3. Is there the relationship among the stability, the development and the mechanism of the data market?
4. Does the social phenomenon like the recently Thailand crisis involve the mechanism of the data market?
A lack of measurement is the condition that there are some variables and propositions out of the area of measurement. Re-framing is required.
