Mogwai Punk Rock Lyrics

Punk Rock Lyrics

I'll tell you about punk rock: punk rock is a word used by dillitante's and
ah... and ah... heartless manipulators about music that takes up the energies
and the bodies and the hearts and the souls and the time and the minds of young
men who give what they have to it and give everything they have to it and it's
a... it's a term that's based on contempt, it's a term that's based on fashion,
style, elitism, satanism and everything that's rotten about rock'n'roll. I don't
know Johnny Rotten but I'm sure... I'm sure he puts as much blood and sweat into
what he does as Sigmund Freud did. You see, what sounds to you like a big load
of trashy old noise is in fact the brilliant music of a genius, myself . And
that music is so powerful that it's quite beyond my control and ah... when I'm
in the grips of it I don't feel pleasure and I don't feel pain, either
physically or emotionally. Do you understand what I'm talking about? Have you
ever felt like that? When you just couldn't feel anything and you didn't want
to either. You know? Like that? Do you understand what I'm saying sir?
