Artifact
Grab your lighters, go grab your souvenirs, grab your friends and your posters from the good years
Grab your albums, go get your videos, pack em up cuz we're headed to the big show
Downtown, down at the stadium, we're gonna burn everything that we once loved
It had a time, it had a place, but then the whole world spit in their face so
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
I'm not saying that it's all bad, disco died but then they dug it up again
Maybe one day all the kids will go: "Guitar bass and drums, so retro!
Let's start a band, let's start a movement, let's go rock some faces in a basement"
Til then, it's a sea of wasted faces waiting for the bass drop
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
I am an artifact, I am a dinosaur. I was alive before we started fighting gulf wars
So chalk it up to nostalgia, I don't give a f cuz I'm still gonna tell ya
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
Grab your albums, go get your videos, pack em up cuz we're headed to the big show
Downtown, down at the stadium, we're gonna burn everything that we once loved
It had a time, it had a place, but then the whole world spit in their face so
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
I'm not saying that it's all bad, disco died but then they dug it up again
Maybe one day all the kids will go: "Guitar bass and drums, so retro!
Let's start a band, let's start a movement, let's go rock some faces in a basement"
Til then, it's a sea of wasted faces waiting for the bass drop
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
I am an artifact, I am a dinosaur. I was alive before we started fighting gulf wars
So chalk it up to nostalgia, I don't give a f cuz I'm still gonna tell ya
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
Break all the guitars and burn 'em
Rock is dead they held a funeral
Once upon a time they made it
Now the DJs just replay it
