Te lo dije: As Friends Rust

Otro disco de esos que no me canso de escuchar aunque pasen los años es "God Hour", ep de As Friends Rust publicado en 1999. El grupo se separó en 2002, pero este verano hizo una pequeña gira de reunión, con siete conciertos: uno en Gainesville, Florida (su ciudad) y seis repartidos por Europa.

Aquí os dejo un vídeo de su actuación en Londres, tocando "Coffee black", uno de mis temas favoritos de aquel ep:



Y aquí la letra:

You like your coffee black,
your neighborhood white,
your lights are out at nine o' clock at night.
Are you affraid of everything, or just the truth?


You've got pre-packaged food,
Family Feud,
faith in the church,
and a good clean attitude.
Are you affraid of everything, or just the truth?

The only problem that you've got,
is the night that Wheel of Fortune's not.
And the only thing you haven't bought,
are the people that are buying you.
You are the Moral Majority, devoid of moral priority.
You are Barbie Doll sorority.
You are the Boys' Club government.

How we lust familarity, speedy compact portability.
Every step that you take forward,
is a generation back for us.
We are the ugly.
We are the gay, Impoverished, effeminate, and overweight.
Take your consumer culture back from us.
It's a fucking economic attack on us all.

And the Football Season
is the only reason
you stay alive
in your Prime Time beehive.
