    Story Behind the Song
    This song was recorded at Private Radio in Seattle, WA and engineered by Pat Gray. Mastering at Masterworks in Seattle by Bary Corliss. This song was part of an 8-song album that was recorded in 2 days and mixed in one. How many takes do you think we had?
    The lyrics are rather stream of consciousness but the general theme is the idiocy of so many Americans.

    Lyrics
    Oooh
    Rock and roll is dead
    Oooh
    We killed it once again
    when we hung our hopes on Kurt Cobain
    with his heroin chic and his shotgun ending
    all the kids they didn't even understand
    they just said "neat trick, Kurt, do it again"

    Falling in and out of fashion I believe I see
    a dialectic we are destined to repeat
    Like America it started as a virus
    now we're living the disease

    Oooh
    things'll be all right
    Oooh
    If not you'll learn to like it
    All the drag queens and the lipstick lesbians
    are up on Broadway, it's Friday night
    you've got the guns but
    they're lookin' pretty
    why you gotta try and fight it?

    falling in and out of fashion...
    etc.
