Techno
I don’t like ‘thrash music,’
and I’m not too keen on Techno.
So heck no, for god sake!
Don’t put on the" Techno"!
I don’t like music
pelting at me with that ‘primitive beat,’
With a mindless gut thumping bass you can hear from here
down to the end of the street.
And I don’t like listening to music,
at the volume of a Hundred and five decibels.
Hell! I’ve got a bit more culture than that;
Can’t you tell!
Don’t need to listen to music played by a computer,
No musicians! No band!
With a repetitive tune repeating over and over,
That’s incredible, incredible bland.
Bomb chick-ky chick-ky, Boom boom.
It’s enough to drive you bloody mad!
And to all those who think that ‘that’s music’
Well! I just think “that’s a little sad.”
I suppose when all is said and done,
I’m just a simple ‘sixties man,’
so give me the Seekers or the Beatles,
and maybe to chill out a bit, some good old ‘Donovan.’
Cause I don’t like thrash music,
and I’m none too keen on Techno either.
So heck no! for god sake!
Don’t put on the" Techno"!
