apathy

[garv]

i was just asked why i've got "I'm interested in apathy" in my sig, it's a line from one of my favourite bands and a line I really love. So i figured i'd post the entire lyrics


TISM : I'm Interested In Apathy

I know how to cheat at Tattslotto
I got a great idea for a song
I know the truth about Marylin Monroe
I can prove Einstein's theory wrong
But that's not what motivates me.
I'm interested in apathy.

I can predict mankind's fate
I know where there's oil in Bass Straight
All the deserts I could irrigate!
All the poor I could emancipate!
But none of this petty stuff for me.
I'm interested in apathy.

I've got the cure for all known disease
I know how to make money grow on trees
I know how to stop terrorism
I know one of the guys in TISM
Enough of this wretched pedantry.
I'm interested in apathy.

Here we are at the last verse.
I've lost interest.

"everyone has had more sex than me"

[garv]

more of their great lyrics, a lot of the hummour in their songs is very australian


Been Caught Wankin'

Your mother gives the bathroom door
A final and desperate yankin' -
I been caught wankin'
"What's taking so long?!" she'd implore
'Cept here's something she's not seen before
Oh man, you been caught wankin'
I been caught wankin'

It's probably pretty Freudian
But its happened to every man
I been caught wankin'
Someone walks too suddenly in
And you're left standin' with a silly grin
And your dodger's still in your hand

I just been readin' N.M.E
'Bout what lately has got cred
They been caught wankin'
Look, its true that it might just be me
But I tell you what, as far as I can see
They're massaging Kojak's head
They been caught wankin'
He's a bloke you could meet any day
Last names? - hey, just drop it
He been caught wankin'
"Tom and Nicole" he'll often say
In his own familiar nice bloke way
Hey Ray - get your hand off it
Been caught wankin'

We all saw the funeral for Lady Di
And didn't you just want to barf?
They been caught wankin'
The media all with their snouts in the sty
Crocodile tears caught in their eyes
You had to be heartless not to laugh
They been caught wankin'

Why is it just so hard not to gag
When a rock star adopts some big issue?
Rock star, caught wankin'
"No animal cruelty" they're likely to brag
But later they'll put a fish up some slag
For godsakes, who's taken all the tissues?
Rock star, caught wankin'

A bad boy image does no real harm
So by all means, go be caught stealin'
You been caught wankin'
Go be caught crackin' car alarms
Be caught with a needle stuck up your arm -
Just don't be caught with spoof on the ceilin'
Been caught wankin'

Nice :wink:

[garv]

hey guys just uploaded two zip files. their music is very different in each song and they are one of the best bands to ever see live, they put rammstein to shame for theatricals & stage performance, no public actually know who they are and they've been around for about 20 years had slight chart success with "Never Be an Old Man river (I'm on the drug that killed river river phoenix)" and "All Homeboys are dickheads" anyway I've put a wide selection into these zip files so check em out, if you want lyrics to the songs let me know.

I woke up feeling so good
I think I’d better call in sick
I need a personal trainer
To help me hold my drink
I plan to be spontaneous
Next time we meet
I’m putting off procrastinating
Until next week

I’ll get onto it
When I give a shit

I must invite my vegan neighbours
Round for a barbeque
I’ll go on a liver cleansing diet
Cos I got lots of drinking to do
I need a mentor
To help me with my self-motivating
The weather’s too good to possibly
Contemplate doing a thing

I’ll get onto it
When I give a shit
Just wait a bit
Till I give a shit
This time it’s legit, my sins I’ll admit, I promise I’ll quit, I’ll get myself fit
I’ll get onto it
When I give a shit

Too much focus leads to tunnel vision
Too much faith leads to Religion
Too much knowledge leads to confusion
Too many guitar lessons lead to jazz-fusion

I’ll get onto it
When I give a shit
Just wait a bit
Till I give a shit
I’m going to commit, I’ll chew on the bit, The next one’s a hit, That’s a definite
I’ll get onto it
When I give a shit

Don’t be The Little Engine That Could
Don’t be John Holmes just ‘cos you got wood
