Anthrax

Woke up this morning desperation a.m. What I've been saying won't say them again My head's not empty, it's full with my brain The thoughts I'm thinking Like piss down a drain And I feel like a beetle on its back And there's no way for me to get up Love'll get you like a case of anthrax And that's something I don't want to catch Ought to control what I do to my mind Nothing in there but sunshades for the blind Only yesterday I said to myself The things I'm doing are not good For my health Love crops up quite a lot as something to sing about 'Cause most groups make most of their songs about falling in love Or how happy they are to be in love You occasionally wonder why these groups do sing about it all the time It's because these groups think there's something very special about it Either that or else it's because everybody else sings about it and always has You know to burst into song you have to be inspired And nothing inspires quite like love These groups and singers think that they appeal to everyone By singing about love because apparently everyone has or can love Or so they would have you believe anyway But these groups seem to go along with what, the belief That love is deep in everyone's personality I don't think we're saying there's anything wrong with love We just don't think that what goes on between two people Should be shrouded with mystery Love'll get you like a case of anthrax And that's something I don't want to catch Love'll get you like a case of anthrax And that's something I don't want to catch --- Anthrax - Gang of Four
