Your taste for bullshit reveals a lust for a home of office
THIS IS THE HOME OF THE VAIN!
THIS IS THE HOME OF THE VAIN!
Where are the obligatory niggers?*
HEY THERE FUCKFACE!!
HEY THERE FUCKFACE!!
There are twelve people in the world
The rest are paste
THIS IS THE HOME OF THE VAIN!
THIS IS THE HOME OF THE VAIN!
I just left the Hotel Amnesia, I had to go there
Where it is I can't remember,
But now I can remember...now I can remember
HAFTA! HAFTA!
MESSAGE FOR YER! MESSAGE FOR YER!
Too much reliance on girl here
On girls here, behind every shell-actor
Snobbier Snobbier
Too much romantic here
I destroy romantics, actors,
Kill it!
Kill it!
KILL IT A !
KILL IT!
KILL IT A !
You won't find anything more ridiculous, than this new profile
razor unit, made with the highest British attention to the
wrong detail, become obsolete units surrounded by hail.
THE CLASSICAL!
THE CLASSICAL!
THE CLASSICAL!
HOTEL AGGRO!
MESSAGE FOR YER! MESSAGE FOR YER!
THE CLASSICAL!
POLEAXE A!..........one of the millenium of conspiracy,
Forever,
I know it means a lot of stomach gas,
I K N O W I T M E A N S A L O T O F S T O M A C H G A SSSSSS
I've never felt better in my life
I've never felt better in my life
POLEAXE A!
THE CLASSICAL!
Stomach gas
I've never felt better in my life
I've never felt better in my life
POLEAXE A!
Millenium of conspiracy

I've never felt better in my life
Better in my life.... . . . . . . . . .

Classical - Fall
Fall's "Classical" stands as a defining track from the band's 1984 debut album, *The Golden Age of Grotesque*. The song exemplifies the group's unique fusion of punk energy with classical structures, utilizing a driving, orchestral rhythm section that contrasts sharply with the band's raw, shouted vocals. This recording helped establish Fall's reputation for blending disparate musical traditions into a cohesive, unsettling whole. The track remains a staple of the post-punk canon, illustrating how the band could deconstruct traditional forms to create something entirely new and disturbing. Its enduring popularity speaks to its effectiveness in capturing the anxiety and intellectual rigor characteristic of the era's most innovative acts.
