Lyrics
Never ever wanted to be with you
The only thing you gave me was the boredom I suffocated in ooh
Adrift in cheap dreams don't stop the rain
Numbed out in piss towns just wanna dig their graves ooh
Motown, Motown junk
I laughed when Lennon got shot
Twenty-one years of living and nothing means anything to me
Motown junk a lifetime of slavery
Songs of love echo underclass betrayal
Stops your heart beating for 168 seconds
Stops your brain thinking for 168 seconds
Motown junk, Motown junk, Motown junk, Motown junk
I don't want 'cos I just get
All your slut heroes offer is a fear of the future ooh
Past made useless 'cos I'm dying now
Communal tyranny a jail that bleeds our wrists ooh
Motown, Motown junk
I laughed when Lennon got shot
Twenty-one years of living and nothing means anything to me
Motown junk a lifetime of slavery
Songs of love echo underclass betrayal
Stops your heart beating for 168 seconds
Stops your brain thinking for 168 seconds
Motown junk, Motown junk, Motown junk, Motown junk
Motown junk a lifetime of slavery
Songs of love echo underclass betrayal
Stops your heart beating for 168 seconds
Stops your brain thinking for 168 seconds
Motown junk, Motown junk, Motown junk, Motown junk
We live in urban hell, we destroy rock and roll
