about

I more or less lost interest in what was going on musically in that decade - spoilt by the sixties and seventies I suppose.

lyrics

An Eighties Song

Whatever happened to the inspiration,
Where have all the good songs flown,
The cutting edge all the creation,
Conveyor belt soldiers stand in a row�

Oh, this is an eighties song,
Same old tune and same old rhythm,
Toothless it goes round and round
Til it vanishes up its own rendition�(x2)

Aquarium fish with silly haircuts,
Sinatra, synths like priests they drone
Triumph of style over substance,
Technochant in monotone, ils ont change ma chanson and..

Chorus�

Here today and gone tomorrow,
Mayfly music lives for a day,
Lucky is the three week wonder
Starburst and then fade away�music with a frontal lobotomy and

Chorus..
