Lowbrow Lyrics

Dressed up like a funeral home
You're cold but loveable
Dream up all the centrefolds
For what?

Cause i've raised your glass
I've signed your card
And this is all i got
Your highbrow piss
No sounds all tricks
This is all i got
Your worship wars
Your skin ain't torn
And this is all i got
Cause it's outside
Outside

Shrugged shoulders and after thoughts
Burn your cards and walk away
Fantasise for another day
For what?

When you stood on the family shore
Holding hands and staring high
Did you think this would work
For what?

Cause i've raised your glass
I've signed your card
And this is all i got
Your highbrow piss
No sounds all tricks
This is all i got
Your worship wars
Your skin ain't torn
And this is all i got
Cause it's outside
Outside

Holy mothers
Holy mothers
Holy mothers

I'll say go
And you say where now
It's all been made
For you this weather
Lilly lally dancing fuckups
Gold coast mums and prefect dropouts

I'll say go and you'll say where now (Outside)
I'll say go and you'll say where now
I'll say go and you'll say where now (Outside)
I'll say go and you'll say where now

Cover art for Lowbrow lyrics by Violent Soho

Officially from the band:

This song is about the middle-class and authenticity, an attack on all things highbrow and plastic. Throughout the record I play with the idea of escaping a masked reality. I like to explore this concept that we live in a form of hyper-consumer reality and we lack an authentic human experience (Google Guy Debord for more!). I feel like this is embedded in punk music a lot, and when people come to our shows and break everything (including our gear) they are acting out against this – that the world doesn’t really offer a tangible experience – so they make one. This song is basic and straight to the point and it’s meant to be. (Listen out for the sweet dive-bombs in the lead guitar break – I love that shit!)
