- RequiredMusic. A 2005 album by AndYouWillKnowUsByTheTrailOfDead.
-
- <[[Brennen]] On a first listen it's maybe not the album I hoped it was. But note "Worlds Apart":
-
- Random lost souls have asked me
- "What's the future of rock'n'roll?"
- I say "I don't know, does it matter?"
- This and that scene,
- They sound all the same to me,
- Neither much worse nor much better.
-
- We're so fucked these days
- We don't know who to hate or who to praise
- Yet we consider this our suffering & pain
- When we're so privileged, a fact
- We all forget about as
- We go whinging all over the place.
-
- How we've laughed as they've shovelled the ashes
- Wrath hath soured
- Blood and death, we will pay back the debt
- For this candy store of ours.
-
- Look at those cunts on MTV
- With their cars, and cribs, and rings and shit
- Is that what being a celebrity means?
- Look, boys and girls, here's BBC
- See corpses, rapes, and amputees
- What do you think now of the American dream?
-
- And our soccer moms and dads
- Who raised us brats on those TV ads
- I know that they sleep at night
- Their conscience is intact
- They've convinced themselves of that
- Giving money to Jesus Fucking H Christ
-
- How they laughed as we shovelled the ashes
- Of the twin towers
- Blood and death, we will pay back the debt
- For this candy store of ours
