WE SHOULD
- Owl Chemist

This don't seem right
Can I get another one
There's plenty more where that came from
Throw it away
Throw it away
The world is too much with us*
Anyway
These days

Dead rat in the alleyway, he’s seen better days
Gorged on a putrified discarded creme brûlée
The North Pacific Gyre’s coping less well than it could
Nano plastic plankton provides piss-poor turtle food

got my iPhone x, 8 , 7, 6, 5 4 and 3
with dioxin, cadmium lead and mercury
keep it up to date boys
spread the wealth around
buy it bin replace it
then stick it in the ground

Do we leave it to the next generation to clean it up?
Or do the bastards responsible come on, and step up?

Somebody better clean this up
Maybe we should?
The filthy bastards who made this mess should clean it up
So we should. We fucking should.
The filthy bastards who made this mess should clean it up

William Wordsworth - The World is Too Much With Us* - 1807

some really cool guitar sounds on this one, some of the lead guitar reminds me of The Cult and later on it gets into a very Joy Division-esque groove. Good stuff.

The brilliance of this song is the art of tension and release. It gets really tense and weird, making the pay off all the nicer. This is easily my favorite Owl submission this Nur Ein. Excellent dynamics. Good stuff!
