Back To The Motor League
(专辑: Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes - 2001)
I
like to party fucking hard I
like my rock and roll the
same Don't give a
fuck if I
burn out Don't give a
fuck if I
fade away So back to the
Motor-League with me Before I'm forced to face the
wrath of a
well-heeled buying public Who live vicariously through Tortured-artist college-rock and floor-punching macho pabulum Back to the
Motor League I
go Once thought I
drew a
lucky hand Turned out to be a
live grenade Oh my god! Holy shit! Play-acting "anarchists" and Mommy's-little-skinheads, Death-threats and sycophants and wieners drunk on straight-edge. Fuck off Who cares? I'd rather highlight Trip-Tiks than listen to your bullshit. Fuck off Who cares about your stupid scenes, your shitty zines, the
straw-men you build up to burn? It never ceases to amaze And as I'm suffering your perfection it reminds me of my own race To redress my own sad history of: Mouthed feet Eaten hats Teated bulls Amish phone-books Drunken brawls But what have we here? 15 years later it still reeks of swill and Chickenshit Conformists With their fists in the
air Like-father, like-son "rebels" bloated on korn, eminems and bizkits. Lord, hear our prayer: Take back your Amy Grant mosh-crews and fair-weather politics. Blow-dry my hair and stick me on a
ten-speed. Back to the
Motor League Back to the
Motor League Back to the
Motor League I
guess life is just a
popularity contest Success, the
ability to perform within a
framework of obedience Just ask the
candy-coated Joy-Cam rock-bands selling shoes for venture-capitalists, silencing competing messages, Rounding off the
jagged edges
