Sunshine visits our new now world
dogcatchers clockout counterfeiters pray
pilgrams stranded on an asphalt artery
without black fluid or a power source
caught chicken pox with measles on a breeze
some call him history
purchased printed slips to a nightmare
our hostess strips on a donkey's back
where every paths unfinished bridges
now all our rubber's growing flat
we're looking searching for the witness
on a deal where they bartered over aversion
any descriptions or whereabouts
of a character dressed in grey
spill these words big payoff!
and for his habit a statue made of hay
winning draws a reward humanity gets saved
purchased printed slips to a nightmare
our hostess strips on a donkey's back
where every paths unfinished bridges
now all our rubber's growing flat
well timed frauds want to know who's stomping
on their toys in their empirical playpen
where'd they stash the virgins?
you know it doesn't matter
if there's a silver lining
so what's the difference?
if you havn't washed behind your ears
shadow length leeches need their cut of the world
as clumsy martyrs fall over potholes
lining sidewalks to an early grave
feminist pillhead crosses her legs
with a dozen extra large a a a eggs
unfolds a map set in her lap to a grimy universe
lavender ledge silhouetted horizon
nut museum's dining then dashing
as roses growing backwards
as i gaze down at the feeding site
i'm a helpless romantic sunk neck deep in quicksand
i'll keep reaching with magnetic eyes
The lyrics FABLE of THE CIRCLE JERKS is also present in the album Oddities, abnormalities, & curiosities (1995)
The Circle Jerks sono un gruppo hardcore punk statunitense formatosi alla fine degli anni '70 ad Hermosa Beach, Los Angeles. Fondati dall'ex cantante dei Black Flag Keith Morris, il gruppo ha rapidamente conquistato la scena californiana e le radio alternative grazie al suo nichilismo ironico e alla vitalità delle sue performance live, spesso caratterizzate da violenza esplosiva. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "I Don't Care", "Wild in the Streets" e "Golden Brown". L'album di debutto, "Group Sex", del 1980, è considerato un classico del genere hardcore punk. The Circle Jerks hanno influenzato numerose band successive e continuano ad essere attivi anche oggi.
