The Art of Clich​é​s

from Dime Novels by Marco Machera

/

lyrics

Hot tramps, boogaloo dudes
you rock n'roll chaps, does this make you feel good?
Check you out, drumming the air
an infectious guitar riff penetrating your head
Blow up dolls, sex in the loo
your chance to be a star smashing up an hotel room
Late nights, neon lights, according to press
You got a little high but i don't give it a damn

Drink your booze while you get interviewed
"Tell me about your love affairs on aerostatic balloons"
Whatcha see, is not whatcha get
you can't play the guitar but you can fake it so well
The hit song you won't bother to write
yet another perfect plan for teenagers going wild
One, two, three four five, you ran out of words
You'd better make up your mind and get rid of the dope

Rocker chic, would you scrounge your next meal
waiting only for your prada boot heels to be a-wanderin'
"Hello guys, are you ready to rock?"
that's the number one question you should be asking no more
So you like to be stoned and depressed
I can tell from your fashion shoots on vanity fair
Smoke and drink anyday anytime
if it makes you feel tough, well it's totally fine
