Acoustic and vocals, folk/indie sort of vibe I guess.
KittenBoy - Acoustic + Vocals,
Lyrically driven folk/indie/rock
Easy, early days in my bid for rock-stardom,
a few rough & ready demos to give you a taste of things to come.
Story behind the song
Another of my tunes inspired by my interest politics and watching the planet go down the shitter.
Lyrics
This darkened room,
Like a mothers womb,
Secure and safe and loving,
Away from the world you hide,
Escape from all your problems,
Remember when you were younger,
When the sun still shone outside.
Chorus
Hey now kids just listen to me,
Switch off your brains,
Turn on your TVs,
Theres a million distractions,
Buy yourself the life you need,
It's easy credit is guaranteed,
You can be just what we wanted.
Now all you hear are your darkest fears,
Broadcast on the airwaves,
With countless nameless graves,
Pointless your resistance,
Your children's grim inheritance,
A vacant prozac smile.
Chorus
Hey now kids just listen to me,
Switch off your brains,
Turn on your TVs,
Theres a million distractions,
Buy yourself the life you need,
It's easy credit is guaranteed,
You can be just what we wanted.
Living with no future,
Nothing to live upto,
Such a dull grey life,
What happened to the heroes?
The fight for peace and justice,
The truth has died.
Chorus
Hey now kids just listen to me,
Switch off your brains,
Turn on your TVs,
Theres a million distractions,
Buy yourself the life you need,
It's easy credit is guaranteed,
You can be just what we wanted.
...You can be our willing slaves,
Loving your life on the minimum wage,
Game shows and Ritalin kids,
It don't get much better than this,
Dead-end job and your bills to pay,
Beers and dreams,
But nothing to say,
They've got you where they want you...
