Carter USM: The Music That Nobody Likes
Mina vänner. Idag ska vi lära oss hur man skriver en rocktext. Ingen gör det bättre än Jim Bob i Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine. Här har ni "The Music That Nobody Likes" på ett bräde:
Fee fi fo fum
I smell the blood of nazi scum
I want my dad and I want my mum
A Sherman tank and a load of guns
If love is the answer
what was the question
and can it cure my indigestion
baby?
Out of the frying pan
into the frying pan
back to the drawing board
and I´ll draw you a diagram
we´ll put on the kettle
for some tea and some sympathy
infamy! infamy!
they´ve all got it in for me
If love is the answer
what was the question
and can it solve the traffic congestion
baby?
Carry on, carry on
you´ve got nothing to lose
you´ve dirtied your pants
and you can´t afford shoes
to stand up and fight
stand up for your rights
and dance to the music
that nobody likes
It goes ba ba ba ba
Out of the mouths of babes bearing arms
come the terrified sounds of a baby´s alarm
at the kidnap and rape of his family and friends
who´ve been taken away to be ethnically cleansed
and the banners and badges and your anarchist friends
say "Apocalypse Now man!"
and "Never again!"
and I know the following smut
should be censored OK
but this shit is fucked, as they say in the U.S.A.
and they say it in Mexico, London and Jericho,
Berlin and Birmingham, Belfast and Tokyo
Amsterdam, Vietnam, Iran, Afghanistan,
Disneyland, Narnia, former Yugoslavia
Yes siree boy, there´s nothing worth living for
but it really ain´t worth dying for
so just say three hail Jesus and Mary Chains,
two how´s your fathers, give your thanks to God
and say goodnight Jim Bob
Goodnight Jim Bob
Nu pekar jag med ett anklagande finger i riktning mot er som dragit detta bands namn i smutsen, må ni stå där med skammens rodnad i ansiktet. Post Historic Monsters, albumet som låten finns med på, är visserligen ingen vidare platta i övrigt. Men Carters tre första album ska ni banne mig skaffa, i första hand 30 Something. Får ni även tag på EP:n After the Watershed har ni det viktigaste. Class dismissed.

här är någon som handlade CUSM debut platta när den kom och inte ångrat sig direkt....
håller absolut med tre första plattor!
som punk-petshopboys!

Var det "Rent" de gjorde en cover på? Eller var det en annan låt?

Ja, det var "Rent" de gjorde en cover på. Men deras bästa låttolkning var ju den av Inspiral Carpets "This is how it feels..." Den är så sjukt energisk och upplyftande.

Den bästa uppviglarpop som gjorts!
Många duos har försökt efterapa, med varierande resultat. Sämst har det nog gått för The Tough Alliance...

Carter har även gjort en anarkistisk cover på Shampoos gamla dänga Trouble. Finns med på den eminenta sjuan The young offenders mom.
