Downtown Animals
The best moments for you are when,
That connection with the audience...
Oh yeah, definetly. That's where it gets sick, you know...
When it's all in a video, and when it's all in a record,
and everything's proper, and everyone's minding
Their manners, but you know, we like to get in there
And, you know, cosmic motion.
That's the nature of music,
That's the way it was meant to be.
You know, people blowing it up.
From here over here it's the beautiful people.
What's that all about?
Y'all ready, right, in the middle?
We're gonna show them right?
That's right.
Is there anything left for me to say?
60 years of insightful music but you're still the same
When will you learn that we're all equal
But very different, you never see
Me going ego-beserk on peoples ears, got
So much to say when they are near
You just got some tenuous rant
Just like some rap god's chant
But do you ever stop to listen?
Starting up a fight until you're missed?
Now can't you see that his love is plastic?
Are you that afraid of some brain static?
A whole culture based on meaningless sex
A thousand songs about forgetting your ex
And after such a long day
You need someone to talk to
But all you get is a screen
The meaniest motherfucker that you've ever seen
Are y'all gonna stand up or not?
Let's go outside tonight
Lets see who here is right
See all the douchebags with sunglasses in nightclubs
And all the 21st century hippies
Who think anyone with a job is a sheep
And all the cool kids with their cocain brains
Wanna tell u which film from kubrick will open your game
And everywhere you look you see skulls
Filled with gigas of wisdom
But no space for fun
No space for dreams
No space for
No space for you
Yeah, that's right I fucked up.
I dropped the mic to the floor
When I was supposed to be singing.
You got a problem with that, New York?
Lovely.
So how old are you?
23.
Really? (yeah) You look a lot older. (oh yeah? great)
You look like about 45.
Yeah, I kinda feel like 60.
Oh yeah? That's cool. So, ahm...
Lovely.
Lovely.
World.
The whole world's lovely.
Well, when you go find a man to embrance
I love how you spit on my face
Even when you know that I'm down
You come spit on my ground, yeah.
You're such a domino
You're such a domino
You know, every time that you fall
You know that I, too, fall
But when you get back on your feet
You just kick me in the teeth, yeah
You're such a domino
That connection with the audience...
Oh yeah, definetly. That's where it gets sick, you know...
When it's all in a video, and when it's all in a record,
and everything's proper, and everyone's minding
