(Spoken) Non nobis solum nati sumus.” Not for ourselves alone are we born. Art is dead Art is dead Art is dead art is dead Bury the crap Bring art back Dig it dig it dig it Dig it back up (Verse 1) We no longer seek consolation in art We no longer seek exultation The wealthy and the lazy, who do nothing constructive Seek the distraction, the unusual, to attach like a leech to the soul of the artist, and the artist is corrupted by wealth, produces extravagant, purposeless works that compromises their gift allowing the influencers slash content creators the airspace to suck the energy and talent into their own growing bank accounts and dictate mass rubbish through their shallow social media propaganda platforms (Guitar solo) It’s clever to tape a banana to a wall or put a white canvas in a frame and create a whole fabricated story or put art through a paper shredder or make a mould of a body part that’s offensive for some fools with more disposable income then sense or empathy to care, Far out man Oh yes Art is dead Art is dead Art is dead Art is dead art is dead Bury the crap Bring art back Dig it dig it dig it Dig it back up Art is dead, buried under a pile of bitcoins, watered by bottles of Moet champagne, cocktails and gin Corrupted by the lazy way to make money by the leeches of society A victim of narcissistic self interest Art has had the full plastic makeover, had its lips blown up, it’s butt lifted, it’s boobs enhanced, eyebrows tattooed, eyelashes added and nails done Reality, acceptance and beauty have been sacrificed for popularity and position Hopefully it’s just a fad Hopefully quality and content will return and the exploiters and influencers will fade into history and leave the world alone, leave us to discover new untouched places , free from costume changes and over exposure, not loved to death by hordes of people who photograph a moment to file away lost in their google photos (Spoken) Non nobis solum nati sumus.” Not for ourselves alone are we born. (Verse 1) We no longer seek consolation in art We no longer seek exultation Art is dead Art is dead art is dead Bury the crap Bring art back Dig it dig it dig it Dig it back up Art is dead Art is dead art is dead Bury the crap Bring art back Dig it dig it dig it Dig it back up (Guitar outtro)
