Pastoral Angst Lyrics
Welcome to the goldrush, ladies and gentlemen, where california begins and maybe
ends.
California is the last stop on the great hitchhike west and now it’s getting a
little full. too many thumbs. well, when you get too many people in one place,
you get intolerance and contempt and
Dity and tension and sarcasm, distrust, anxiety, envy, hate, cynicism,
discontent, self-pity, malice, suspicion, jealousy and snobbishness. and this
leads right into poetry, painting, sculpture,
E, music and literature, photography. these are known as the arts. and art will
break your heart. so what? so will a good meal. art is not the spiritual side of
business-as-usual.
And art is not for everyone. never has been and it never will be. now me, I
don’t know much about art, but I do like what I know. you know in these days
when everybody is mistaking celebrity for
Nt, ambition for genius, self-pity for humility, style for content and loathing
for love, they spend a lot of time getting in touch with themself. and then they
find self-justification, self-rig
Sness, self-obsession, self-pity, self-loathing, self-concern,
self-centredness, self-reliance, and self-serving gratification.
