Hurry, hurry, hurry...Step right up... Your opinion is wanted...(heh, heh, heh)...

What is the most cynical song and the most cynical musical performer/group in your opinion?


(This time RSE is going to wait before he pitches his opinion out there)...

Here's another one that's highly cynical (also one of my faves)

Liar by Rollins Band




Quote:
Lyrics

You think youre going to live your life alone
In darkness and seclusion... yeah, I know
Youve been out there and tried to mix with those animals
And it just left you full of humiliated confusion
So you stagger back home and wait for nothing
But the solitary refinement of your room spits you back onto the streets
And now youre desperate and in need of human contact
And then you meet me and yur whole world changes
Because everything I say is everything youve ever wanted to hear
So you drop all you defenses, Im perfect in every way
cause I make you feel so strong and so powerfull inside
You feel so lucky
But your ego obscures reality that you never bothered to
Wonder why things are going so well
You want to know why?

cause Im a liar, yeah, Im a liar
Ill tear (rip) your mind up, Ill burn your soul
Ill turn you into me, Ill turn you into me
cause Im a liar, a liar, a liar, a liar...

Ill hide behind a smile and understanding eyes
And Ill tell you things that you already know so you can say:
I really identify with you, so much
And all the time that youre needing me is just the time
That Im bleeding you, dont you get it yet?
Ill come to you like an affliction then Ill leave you like an addiction
Youll never forget me... wou wanna know why?

I dont know why I feel the need to lie and cause you so much pain
Maybe its something inside, maybe its something I cant explain
cause all I do is mess you up and lie to you
Im a liar, ooh, Im a liar
But if youll give me another chance I swear Ill never lie to you again
cause now I see the destructive power of a lie,
Theyre stronger than truth
I cat believe I ever hurt you, I swear I will never lie to you again
Please, just give me more chance, Ill never lie to you again, no,
I swear, I will never tell a lie, I will neer tell a lie, no, no
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! sucker! sucker! sucker!

I am a liar, yeah, I am a liar, yeah, I am a liar
I lie you, I feel good, I am a liar, yeah
I lie x4 ooh, I lie, yeah, I lie
Im a liar, I lie, I like it, I feel good, I like it, and again
I like it again and Ill keep lying, Ill promise

My recommendation is the early Tubes (mid to late 1970's). It's a tossup between What Do You Want From Life and White Punks On Dope.

from What Do You Want From Life

What do you want from life?
To kidnap an heiress
And threaten her with a knife?

What you you want from life?
To get cable TV
And watch it all through the night?

How can you tell when you're doing all right?
Does you bank account swell
While you're sleeping at night?

What do wear while you're dreaming....


from White Punks On Dope

We're white punks on dope,
Mom and Dad live in Hollywood.
Hang myself when I get enough rope...

White punks on dope!

Cynical? I really can't think of any. Most songs are ridiculously ebullient. I'll have to consider this a bit longer.

Dunno that one; but it reminded of 'You're So Vain'.
