LYRICS | JIMI ICONOCLAST
(The Death of the Rock 'n' Roll Band - As We Know It...?)

Jimi iconoclast
He’s got a fever working blast
Smash the status that wears him out
He’s got to move on to get back
He’s got the love in his heart
He’s gonna take it and then please ya’

Things were on hold too long inside
And the fever was always denied
He’s taking a look the other side
Feeling so bad, I guess I know it’s sad
Talking about, the split of a rock 'n’ roll band

Jimi iconoclast
He’s got a zipper through a looking glass
Trash the adverts that sell him out
He’s got to keep on to get back
He’s got the love in his heart
He’s gonna take it and then please ya’

Things were on hold too long inside
And the fever was always denied
He’s taking a look the other side
Feeling so bad, I guess I know it’s sad
Talking about, the search for a rock 'n’ roll band

And the drums – sounded thousands of times like that before
And the bass - sounded thousands of times like that before
And the guitar - sounded thousands of times like that before
I’m no different, I’m just getting bored
And the songs - sounded thousands of times like that before
He’s gonna take it and then please ya’

Things were on hold too long inside
And the fever was always denied
He’s going for the underground
Feeling so bad, I guess I know it’s sad
Talking about, the death of the rock 'n’ roll band

As we know it – as we know it
As we know it – as we know it – as we know it
As we know it – ooh yeah – ah – ah

ALiEN ALRiGHT Modi'In Makabim Re'Ut, Israel

Landing in the UK for an unexpected stay of 7 years, 'Alien Alright' is like an 'outsider's indie-rock diary' of music recorded during that time.

It's organized by order and consists of 14 albums - all 100% DIY, home-made.

Some of the albums are more properly produced, some are recorded with just vocals over an acoustic guitar, and 2 are improvised live.

You’re welcome to explore and enjoy :) ... more
