I can still remember
When I first heard the riff
That opens 'Nevermind' up
My neck-hairs stood up stiff
And since those first discoveries
I've tried to recreate
The feeling I had back then
But nothing sounds that great
So please give me an album
That I love straight away
That I don't have to grow in to
After constant play
See, I buy a lot of records
And take most of them back
'Cos I feel that disappointment
After just one track
And I can't move on...
Last band stole my heart
Was Every Time I Die
I loved every second
But now three years gone by
When I heard 'Worship and Tribute'
I thought my dreams come true
Listening to most other bands
It seems they all did too
All this eighties indie
Sounds like s*** to me
'Cos I don't like Joy Division
I don't like Morrissey
Or their new impersonators
Kings of MTV
Suckling at the teat
Of the f****** NME
And I can't move on...
