This post is dedicated to the old days when everything was simple and true.
(how could someone fuck up and put the wrong record cover!)
NOFX-Pump Up The Valium
One time weekly rate
12 by 12 foot room
Strapped down to the bed
Now pump up the valium
My mind is wide asleep
My conscience deep awake
The promises I keep
Are not the ones I make
I count the caustic causes
I lost count of regrets
A surplus of good intentions
Don't provide me with content
All I want is just a little content
One time monthly rate
Still no breathing room
Pressure's building up
So pump up the valium
I choose the beaten path
I've been to where it leads
Why I keep coming back
A mystery to me
I found what I've been seeking
It's too late for me to care
My aspiration's leaking
From a hole I can't repair
Maybe I just don't want it repaired

I get what you're saying, but I was around in the late '90s when this stuff was being released-trust me, things sucked just as bad then!
ReplyDeleteThings always sucked and always will but these times were the best for me. Be it the music or the friendships,things WERE way different,in Greece at least!
ReplyDeleteAh, yeah, that makes sense. I was over there for awhile, society's falling apart. It looks like the US is headed in the same direction...
ReplyDeleteThe whole world is headed in the same direction,I stopped worrying about it 'cause it only gets me depressed,we're all going straight to hell let's just enjoy the ride!
