"It's the end of the world as we know it - I feel fine" - why REM should
be imprisoned for life.

"I've got my Orange Crush" - yeah, well, fucking goody goody for you, you sellout fucks. Sorry, but it's to artistic prison for you sycophantish sucklers of the corporate teet.

Next on FOX, "When Bands Sell Out And Don't Even Have the Integrity to Quite After a Couple Years But Go On and On and On for Twenty Years With Their Vapid Empty Shit Even Though They Used To Be Relevant and Good and Artistic and Actually Alternative"

3. They were good? I must have missed it.
They've always been mediocre.

6. I thought they were good -
but I really should go back and listen to their first couple albums, which I've not listened to since they were new. I wonder if I would think they were any good any more? Probably not.

11. Bad Day?
here:
http://www.lyricstime.com/lyrics/69870.html

Look at this, it's me, walking away.
Look at you drowning, on display.
Every time I've dropped by, I've tried to say
The water is rising.
You don't want to stay.

It's that sinking feeling. you know what it's bringing on.
You might as well say it,
I see it, I feel it.
This town is going wrong.
It's turning away.

You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
It's beautiful
I'd like for them to take me on ...

The track mall gang went off
On the Tennessee goth. a lunar moth,
You chrysalis and flail.
The water is rising. you try to rappel.
A rousing cheer for the boy in the well.

It's that sinking feeling. you know what it's bringing on.
You might as well say it,
I see it, I feel it.
This town is going wrong.
It's turning away.

You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
It's beautiful
I'd like for them to take me on ...

Here is where I look back.
Here is where you fell.
This is where I got up,
Shaking off my tail
This is where your rope trick
Started to look stale.
A greyhound pass for the boy in the well.

It's that sinking feeling
You know what it's bringing on
I might as well say it.
I see it, I feel it
This town is going wrong.
It's turning away.

You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
It's beautiful
I'd like for them to take me on

You wanted me to be someone that I could never be
My new friends are offering things I've never dreamed
It's beautiful
I'd like for them to take me on





:evilgrin:

I lurve 'Around the Sun'.
