Caucasian Walk Lyrics
Didn’t notice all the clocks on television,
Controlled violence on sale in new streets.
Don’t delay in boring studios!
Whatever happened to Emancipation Act ‘73?
I think it’s lost, yes it’s lost.
In a world of satisfaction. No delay!
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Because I can’t do nothing, can’t do nothing.
Distributed feelings to a race that does not comprehend.
I don’t smoke, I just do it for the company.
Political problems, sexual frustration won’t end.
It’s the type of poison that doesn’t count in life.
I think not of the glasses but of the drink.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Because I can’t do nothing, can’t do nothing.
Hero are you out there or is it just a shadow?
I could give you words if the world gives me vibes.
Tell me what’s the position between the man and beast?
Impressions on a mirror for everyone of you to look at.
It’s the type of happening in a weird situation.
And that’s the reason for doing nothing, nothing.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Crazy singer, crazy singer, crazy singer...
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Because I can’t do nothing, can’t do nothing.
Didn’t notice all the clocks on television,
Controlled violence on sale in new streets.
Don’t delay in boring studios!
Whatever happened to Emancipation Act ‘73?
I think it’s lost, yes it’s lost.
In a world of satisfaction. No delay!
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Like a crazy singer in a band that’s lost the words.
Crazy singer...
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Because I can’t do nothing, can’t do nothing.
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Caucasian walk, Caucasian talk
Caucasian walk, Caucasian, Caucasian talk!
Caucasian Walk “… what it is basically is quotes, quotes from people we heard talking, sayings we’ve heard… we just got sentences that we liked, that we were familiar with, and joined them together… it means nothing.” Gavin, in Alternative Megazine issue 8, February 1984.

I think this song is about a society in which people have become part of a system that is like a big machine to which people must conform and make themselves compatible. It's about the post-humanist reign of alienation, apparatchiks, capitalism, competition, consumerism, efficiency, gleichschaltung, means dominating purpose, panem et circenses, & the abolishment of creativity, humanism, individualism, purpose, re-creative leisure-time, & self-determination. It's about a world in which everyone just walks on, without paying heed to their surroundings, with a lack of real communication or even the ability to communicate: A world in which people just rattle on like street-cars in their grooves, punctual but dull.
