HALLOWEEN |
A fun old song by the Dead Kennedys, it seems pretty relevant to today's BurningMan poseurs. Ironically, the most pathetic of these day trippers are often the most vocal defenders of the BMan mantras! Read on, and see if you don't see a little bit of 'BMan wannabe' in the lyrics. |
So it's Halloween And you feel like dancin' And you feel like shinin' And you feel like letting loose Whatcha gonna be Babe, you better know And you better plan Better plan all day Better plan all week Better plan all month Better plan all year You're dressed up like a clown Putting on your act It's the only time all year You'll ever admit that I can see your eyes I can see your brain Baby, nothing's changed (repeat) You're still hiding in a mask You take your fun seriously No, don't blow this year's chance Tomorrow your mold goes back on After Halloween You go to work today You'll go to work tomorrow Shitfaced tonight You'll brag about it for months Remember what I did Remember what I was Back on Halloween But what's in between Where are your ideas You sit around and dream For next Halloween Why not everyday Are you so afraid What will people say (repeat) After Halloween Because your role is planned for you There's nothing you can do But stop and think it through But what will the boss say to you And what will your girlfriend say to you And the people out on the street they might glare at you And whadya know you're pretty self-conscious too So you run back and stuff yourselves in rigid business costumes Only at night to score is your leather uniform exhumed Why don't you take your social regulations And shove 'em up your ass |
