lyrics
500 channels of a day-dream stimulation
helps me to resent my life and raise my expectations.
Locked into re-runs, your memories repeating,
and all your ideals seem so self defeating.
For you and yours, the pepsi generation,
and when you're discontent, you change the T.V. station,
And when you hate your life, no qualtities redeeming,
a million brainwashed zombies will always be heard screaming...
And when there is no hope,
I smoke some crack, I shoot some dope!
When theres no enemies,
I sit and stare at my T.V.
and in my ignorance,
I'll be a slave and sycophant!
500 channels of a day-dream stimulation
helps me to fiorget myself and raise my expectations.
Locked into re-runs, your memories repeating,
and all your ideals seem so self defeating.
And when there is no hope,
I smoke some crack, I shoot some dope!
When theres no enemies,
I sit and stare at my T.V.
and in my ignorance,
I'll be a slave and sycophant!
And when there is no hope,
I smoke some crack, I shoot some dope!
When theres no enemies,
I sit and stare at my T.V.
and in my ignorance,
I'll be a slave and sycophant!
With my credit and my bank,
my mind will draw a blank.
I'll block out history,
and stare at my T.V.
For me there is no way.
500 channels waste my life away

Political ska-punk formed in NYC’s most notorious squats in 1993, CV was embraced by DIY punks & crusties while being
unofficially banned from every music venue in NYC, they still made a name for themselves against the odds. Signing to Epitaph/Hellcat & splitting on the 1st day of recording, “No Gods/No Managers” came out in 1998. 2/3rds of CV went on to Leftöver Crack. 1/3rd remains embittered....more
Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine.
Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip
As much as I like the current line up, I do miss the dynamic that Marissa's voice added to the band. Plus, she's one of the better washboard players out there. Terry Aston
