<[[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
