Barrowclough - Everything Is Not Okay
текст песни

Lampoon the Underclass, Spoonfeed the Inquisitive

Cultural Regression starts here! Where’s the Professors?

Where’s the Successors? Where’s the Success

When Sex sucks and we’re like dead Ducks, selling ourselves for ten Bucks?

Recently Autonomy has got to me

And falling apart is not what it’s cracked up to be

Nah! I always thought it sat uncomfortably

With a Race that are basically Sheep without the woolly Jumpers

That means we’re shivering and searching for a Shepherd

We thought we’d found some but we were chasing after Crooks

We’ve been learning all the Lessons

When probably we should have been burning all the Books

So this is Progress! A Century of Bloodshed

A Prozac Generation, on every Corner a Mcds

And this is Liberation! A thousand Shades of Lipstick

And a Surgeon who can make you look like they tell you you should be


Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Backwards. Backwards. Backwards. Backwards


Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!

Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!

Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!

Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!


It’s an Exercise in Paper pushing so take your Cushion and make yourself comfortable

Disengage your Brain, it’s strange because under all

The Pretence of Progress, it’s just a slow Death in Disguise

Cos no one admits it’s pointless if there’s no Rest in the Skies for us

But don’t think about that. Just push harder. Run faster. Make is larger

Till we’re past the point of Perfection and we’re Masters of the Universe

And every potential Alien Race agrees to put Humans first

Nah, don’t worry, I think we’re through the Worst

Cos we’re working on some Software that’ll make you live forever

The best Thing about it is that you don’t need to lift a Finger

At the Touch of a Button, this Machine will give you Pleasure

So forget about your Tests, your Stress and all the Pressure

Well, you can keep your Soma, I prefer the older Model to the New Improved

The perpetual Record Breakers are all Cheats!

And as we sink without a Trace, we’ll still be mocking our Grandparents

With our healthy looking Hair and our shiny white Teeth


Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Backwards. Backwards. Backwards. Backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Everything is not okay. We are moving backwards

Backwards. Backwards. Backwards. Backwards


Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!

Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!

Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!

Woe to the City of Blood, full of Lies, full of Plunder

We are going under!
