lyrics
It’s an enormous Cadillac
Got the blood-red, faux velvet interior smells of a better era
White-walled tires
(Cos we love them walls white)
And a metallic blue exterior sparkles cut glass playin at being diamonds
Pan over a crucifix hood ornament
It’s 45, smug at the wheel cruisin the Nightmare Strip
Cadillac gits, like, a mile to the gallon
While 45 sucks back a big Bubba Burger
Crankin recordings from the My Lai massacre
Onna stereo system hip for ’83
45 licks greasy fingers, gnashes teeth
Breaks out a bucket a hate in livin, breathin color
Sprinkled with four flavors of fear
The Caddy veers wildly, 45 rubberneckin the monochrome whores
Down at the corner of Abject and Poverty—
45 gives em one of those patented, arrogant smiles
A whole planet has come to know and loathe
Lil black girl not where she should be
(Afghanistan took her pops, junk took her moms)
Flies into the street fleein a pack o rabid skinheads
Predictable tho it may be,
45 creams the kid,
Blood spatter givin the Cadillac
A fucked up Pollock paint-job
45 pauses long enough to take a coupla bows, shake a coupla hands
While the skinheads roll the corpse offa the Strip
Then the Caddy peels out,
Nothin but torched Korean convenience stores and bodies in its wake. . .
After all, race riots & lynchings are as American as apple pie
Excellent Signalwave album that has a very smooth, atmospheric and focused sound. I love how every one of the 27 short loop-based pieces has its own grainy fidelity which adds to the warm textures of the sampled and manipulated music samples and Ambient melodies. The fragmented nature of the album's tracklist also makes this nicely sound like a collection of pleasant aural dreams. insomniaindex
