The International Tweexcore Underground (Remastered)

作词 : Gareth David

作曲 : Los Campesinos!

[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 ****ing 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
