Phrasemonger by Mr. Crbs Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
East to the west to the north to the south
You are the best according to your mouth
But we infest and we'll finally arouse
This is a test: elephant versus mouse!
We express just what we feel
Not a big poetic deal
And your words may appear stronger
But at least we're no phrasemongers!
[Chorus]
Why you wanna talk about our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you say is just some empty phrases!
Whatchu whatchu wanna say?
You're the stereotype of our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you wanna tell us about our generation?
[VERSE 2]
Why do you look like you're down with the street?
Why do you always have Nikes on your feet?
Why you're trying to 2-step on every beat?
And why do you just listen to “the classics” on repeat?
We're exploring, cuz it's boring, to hear snoring every day
Not conform with this norm of brainless worms waiting to pray!
Clear tradition with a vision, no suspicion, so let's go!
New is not always best, but the rest may not be better though!
[Chorus]
Why you wanna talk about our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you say is just some empty phrases!
Whatchu whatchu wanna say?
You're the stereotype of our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you wanna tell us about our generation?
[VERSE 3]
Listen!
From time to time I start wondering about myself
When I realize I'm wandering the easy path, it's five to twelve
To step back from a routine that ruins the dive
I wanna live, to get and give, not such a stiff life
So the reason why I criticize to swim with the stream
Or to lead people acting like some sheep into that steam
Of feeling better than the rest, if they're part of the team
Is that I think it doesn't help your mind to keep keen
It's not important to be studied or to form the elite
Cuz in fact abnormal flight to the top just causes greed
For power, and that's something to go sour!
But if it's your goal, go spit from the highest tower!
[Chorus]
Why you wanna talk about our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you say is just some empty phrases!
Whatchu whatchu wanna say?
You're the stereotype of our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you wanna tell us about our generation?
[FINAL]
Clear tradition with a vision, no suspicion, so let's go!
New's not always best, but the rest will not be better though!
East to the west to the north to the south
You are the best according to your mouth
But we infest and we'll finally arouse
This is a test: elephant versus mouse!
We express just what we feel
Not a big poetic deal
And your words may appear stronger
But at least we're no phrasemongers!
[Chorus]
Why you wanna talk about our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you say is just some empty phrases!
Whatchu whatchu wanna say?
You're the stereotype of our generation
What you wanna state about it is nonesense
So what you wanna tell us about our generation?
