[The Ex Punk Band - Rumours of Music The Original Soundcrack lyrics]
Nice video
Nice recording, nice sleeve, nice act
Nice interview
Nice manager, nice band, nice image
Nice trend nice! It's all so very nice!
Listen, I've seen the next future rock'n'roll
The rumour goes there's even music involved
Well, I'm not into music, I'm into business
All I need to know is how trendy it is
And what the name of the trend is
Trashrock? Cowpunk? Fuckabilly?
Psychopeelia? Artcore?
Garage rock? White soul? Red
Blues? Papmusic? Pazzjunk?
What's in a name anyway
When it's not cash and carry
They call it pokkeherrie
Well, this is pokkeherrie
For that's what we want: pokkeherrie!
"So, this is music" said the man in the suit
"But we understand profit's
We know it's no use why don't you go away
And write commercial songs
And come back in three years
That shouldn't be too long" unquote
Trashrock? Cowpunk? Fuckabilly?
Psychopeelia? Artcore?
Garage rock? White soul? Red
Blues? Papmusic? Pazzjunk? Pokkeherrie!
But if you're into the game try again
Here's the Dutch grand prix of pop music
15 minutes of fame, 15 minutes waste of time
And maybe even three minutes airplay
Or this week's music mag's profile page
It's all the rage
Open the cage: asshole goes to Hilversum!
The intent of the event is not
Investment in talent or integrity
But the hype of hope
Cheap exposure and publicity
Years of arrogant ignorance disguised
As care and concern well, maybe it's a start
But is it from the head or from the heart
And even when it's real
What does one really feel
Besides the emotion of some record deal
As a major company's confidence depends on
The extend of the sales
Just wait till they fail
"Say, what's the time and what was
The name of your band?
Already that late? Sorry mate, you see
Wrong trend
Still, if there's anything else we can do
We'd sure like to help but don't call us
We'll call you"
