@GlamourWithStammer - "But why does he include Hitler in this song?" - Gee, maybe Jimmy saw that photo-shopped 4chan image of Hitler in emo clothes and swooped comb over like the rest of the internetz and he thought it'd be funny to include in the song? There's also the joke that Hitler was "the original emo kid," because he put a cyanide pill in his mouth and 'BECAME AN HERO' with his bitch, Eva Braun, in a bunker after losing the war.
@petbreak - HEY BATMAN, WHY SO SERIOUS? Okay, so emo kids didn't go around murdering Jews. But they do have that whole "scene" shit where they all copy off each other and look exactly the same, and sing about the same old shit. Maybe it was cool when Deathcab for Cutie was doing it, but like anything, after the labels picked it up and commercialized it, it became generic. The "emotion" part of it stopped being genuine once EVERYBODY was doing it and every radio station and video channel was playing it.
"Coincidentally, we all sound exactly the same
We all want to swindle kids out of their money."
The labels don't give a shit about giving the people anything new or unique, they just want to put out whatever is going to sell and then mass market it in Hot Topic to impressionable 12 year olds. Thus, you get your MCR's, your AFI's, your Fallout Boys, your Red Jumpsuit Aparati, and a gazillion others that are just a repeat of Backstreet Boys and N'sync but with pale makeup, color striped hair and dark clothes.
"If your still doing this cuz you believe in it, you are so fucking lame!"
This is the mainstream corporate label whore saying to the new guy:
'if you're really making music with a message and substance, you're dated.'
"I am part of the problem, not the solution.
I'm just a prisoner, in the same prison as you.
We wait for other shoes to fall into position
Already obsolete, no one will miss us at all."
He knows that he's no more well off than those
he criticizes. Just by being in the music industry,
he's another cog in the machine and once they're
over, the labels will pick some new norm to
force feed everyone and they'll be forgotten.
"...Making us all indescribably indistinguishable from
Each other, Or maybe I'm just another megalomaniac."
Jimmy analyzes his own biases and "music purist" attitude and sees
that even if he could kill off bands that don't fit with his idea
of perfection, then it would only lead to another period of mass
conformity and creative stagnation which would then need another
musical holocaust to wipe away the new mainstream.
