The International Tweexcore Underground

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Gareth] I bet you twenty pounds if you knew Ten years ago how pretty you'd turn out Then you'd never have gotten your ears pierced But I never got my ears pierced, and look how I turned out And the last time that you tried listening to music And reading fiction at the same time You never finished the chapter But you finished the song With your chin on your knees like you belong [Pre-Chorus: Gareth & Aleks] And I never cared about Henry Rollins Amelia Fletcher never meant anything to me [Chorus: Gareth & Aleks] But the International Tweexcore Underground Can save us all [Verse 2: Gareth & Aleks] Getting the laptop fixed by a professional Doesn't make me a pawn And stamping harder on your FX pedal Won't make you feel any better any more Oh, you said, "We've gotta bite the hand that feeds" But I was sucking seductively on the fingertips of a civil servant Said, "How're you gonna bring the state down When you're propping it up?" With daytime radio And skimmed milk and soppy bows Just 'cause you're scared to be alone [Pre-Chorus: Gareth & Aleks] And I never cared about Ian MacKaye Calvin Johnson never meant anything to me [Chorus: Gareth & Aleks] But the International Tweexcore Underground Can save us all [Bridge: Aleks] Ooh, this city is run by fucking pigs Though you say you're my friend You're not, you're one of them [Pre-Chorus: Gareth & Aleks] And I never cared about whatever Sarah Records never meant anything to me [Chorus: Gareth & Aleks] But the International Tweexcore Underground Will save us all
