Popular Culture - dEUS

Let me tell you a thing on popular culture

American swing, the British add sulfur

I’ll buy you a beer if you can compete from here

They throw you a line

Let me see if you catch it

And they’ll give you some time, sure

If you got something to match it

Just as long as you know

Who is running that show, ohh

And I was thinking, well, hey

I’m gonna throw it away

Throwing out my popular culture

'Cause now you know it’s not great

If you don’t come from the states

You will always be late to be in popular culture

From western slang to showbiz spells

You’d almost think there’s nothing else

Can you give me the news

On the romantic actor?

No, I don’t really care

But his blues is for me a distractor

Through his eyes I can see

What is wrong with me, ohh

And I was thinking, well, hey

I’m gonna throw it away

Throwing out my popular culture

'Cause now you know it’s not great

If you don’t come from the states

You will always be late to be in popular culture

From western slang to showbiz spells

You’d almost think there’s nothing else

And I was thinking, well, hey

Well, what the hell is my place

If someone else will dictate

My singular culture

'Cause everybody’s a star

And if you don’t think too far

You can define who you are

Through popular culture

It’s like you’re not really seen

Without a fashionable spleen

That is so much alike the one

Your heroes suffered

And so you gotta be strong

You’ve got to just speak in tongues

About how you belong

In popular culture
