Catholic Discipline “Underground Babylon”

Preceeded by interview with lead singer/music writer Claude Bessey aka Kickboy Face. From The Decline of Western Civilization. Punk did have a literate vein…

Sitting in a room/Surrounded by bottles/My friends have all left/And my head is on fire/It’s already morning/But pieces of the night/Are still stuck to my hair/What we did is fading/In the light of the day/whatever we say is bullshit/To live the modern way

CH: And I guess/I’ll never find out/Which one of you wrote/With a greasy lipstick/Babylon must fall…/On a bathroom mirror

On this spotty mattress/I would lay for hours/Adding up all my sins/And inventing new ones/I’m proud of my life/And I stand by my doom/I can tell right from wrong/And it’s never stopped me/All the prophets have died/The books have been written/Salvation in a jar/We laugh so hard it hurts…

I like the taste of guilt/I know the taste of death/Makes me want to sing/Makes me want to bite/When all you dumbfucks sleep/With your bland little brains/Full of bland little dreams/We try our new curses/Experiment with fear/Experiment with fear/Sink in each others’ souls/And rehearse on the phone…
