This morning while working out on my elliptical trainer, I rewatched an episode of the second season of “The Wire,” and rather than skimming through the opening credits — something a bit harder to do on the Roku and have it stop where I want it — I listened to the song.
Guess which part of the words grabbed my attention, in light of current news?
… He’s got the fire and the fury
at his command.
Well, you don’t have to worry
if you hold on to Jesus’ hand.
We’ll all be safe from Satan
when the thunder rolls;
just gotta help me keep the devil
way down in the hole.
Yikes. Suddenly lyrics I’d heard a hundred times grabbed me in a whole new way….
How would Bunk and McNulty deal with North Korea?
