War On Culture

Carbon/Silicon


I say, I say, I say

There's a conspiracy 
And tryin' for a coup
I think we should be free 
To do what we want to do
You may well roll over 
But don't expect me 
To go along
Hold it, wait a minute 
I ain't done nothing wrong

Chorus:
Where will they welcome us 
With open arms 
When we are on the run
To some remote island 
Where we can have some fun
What they're trying to sell us 
Is really just a con
Hasn't anybody noticed 
What's been going on?

They shouldn't get away 
With it and somebody should say
I shouldn't have to pack up 
All my bags and move away
The global war on culture 
Started with a song
Hold on, wait a minute 
I ain't done nothing wrong

Drew a line into the sand 
Which can decide upon
When you wake up 
In the morning 
What side are you on?
With some surprise 
And deep regret 
I have to say so long
Hold on, wait a minute 
I ain't done nothing wrong

(Chorus)

Don't feel apppreciated 
In a place without a heart
Where there's no appreciation 
Of the finer points 
Of modern art
But I'm not going anywhere 
So if you want to start
There's plenty people 
Just like me 
Who're glad 
To take my part

It all began with a line 
In the glassy sand
And the assasination 
Of Franz Ferdinand
Now I'm digging tunnels 
Like the Vietcong
Hold on, wait a minute 
I ain't done 
Nothing wrong

(Chorus)

So it's red-tops 
Versus cokeheads 
In a cultural civil war
At least I know 
What I'm fighting for
What I'm fighting for

As hypocrites 
And liars 
Adopt a moral tone
He who is without sin 
May as well go home
May as well as go home

It's a shame I know 
But yours is the disgrace
I reserve the right 
To get off my face
To get off my face

Get it
