lyrics

Oh Jeremy
There will be no reward for your persistence
For the cancer it has riddled me
The tumour is malignant
And I’ve lost all of the faculties
I need to judge the distance
Between the nature of the beast
And the culture of resistance

Oh Jeremy
Mendacity’s the perfume of your peers
Ideology is bankrupt
It is decades in arrears
And there is no manifesto, no
Just the catalyst of fears
For an imperial monopoly
As it slowly disappears

Oh but I
I want to
Believe too
To be swept along
When the feeling’s strong
But I
I just pretend to care
Hungover in my underwear
Oh Jeremy
Society’s been digging it’s own grave
There’ll be no one left to save
It’s just a long, slow process of decay

Oh Jeremy
The first time it was bound to be explosive
When the ecstasy took full effect
In floods of serotonin
And you spoke of liberation
While I paid my dues to Onan
For though my brother; he lay slain
There was nothing that I owed him

Oh Jeremy
I’m sick with the whitest of afflictions
I have moved beyond sincerity
I have lost all my convictions
I am cloaked in pseudo-literary
Notions of existence
And there is no room for cowards
In the culture of resistance

Oh but I
I want to
Be there too
When the orchestra plays
The Internationale
But I
I’m just to cool to care
Leather jacket and long hair
Oh Jeremy
The enemy
Has gifted me a grave
Now all I have to do is wait
For the long, slow process of decay
For the long, slow process of decay

Louis Brennan London, UK

London-based Dubliner Louis Brennan is a singer-songwriter in the folk tradition. His folk however aren’t the field hands and travelling minstrels of yore but the repressed middle managers and ennui-ridden urbanites of late-stage capitalism. They populate tales of bad sex, drunk commutes and interpersonal claustrophobia delivered in Brennan’s cracked baritone, at times embarrassingly intimate ... more
