lyrics

Is there something which will stop this revolving?
Where are the simple ways of the passing days?
The engines move too fast
The highways collapse

Can you feel things are spinning off their axis?
The rhythms don't meet at the fine line between
the vain warmth of an echo
the harness of a stone throne

TAKE HOLD OF YOUR HATS
AIN'T THIS A GAS?
BUT NOBODY'S BREATHING

YOU SHOT DOWN THE MOON
OH, YOU'RE SO COOL!
NOW WE'RE ALL DROWNING

BABIES IN BLACK
EMERGE FROM THE CRACKS
NOW WE'RE DRENCHED IN SHADOWS

YOU REEL IN THE SUN
TO IMPRESS EVERYONE
NOW WE'RE ALL BURNT TO A CRISP
TELL ME, ARE YOU PROUD OF THIS?

it's all fading too fast for me
is it worth trying to hold on to anything
let me lay sister
I'm Dizzy as Hell
I'm watching the shit fly from every angle

Divine is the hum of the turbines?
Stop screaming, man! Salvation's a scam
Bite your tongue harder until you're a martyr

Anything this side of hell is mercy
This may have been true, but the devil he broke loose
I seen him on a streetcar
With Madame Dubois

You're fiending the belief that you're crazy
You're spending your time bench-pressing enzymes
Wring out your curtains
Take drugs for your burdens

And you're wondering why the stoves keep on bleeding
Idyllic vibes lie stagnant in the pipes
Once frozen vapors now liquified

The room aches with the taste of an earthquake
oscillating, tilting the oceans are spilling
The engines rev so high
The billboards collide

Lay low, I'm gonna be sick. bring me my cradle
Hold me with everything, just keep me stable
The room's spinning faster from the floor looking up

Is there room left for another inch of progress?
We're caught in the quagmire, call the Tilt-a-whirl junkies
They can grease down the turnstiles
With Phenylethylamine

SHATTER THE PENDULUMS
BURN DOWN THE BELL TOWERS
DESTROY THE CLOCKWORKS
TO SLOW DOWN THE HOURS

RIP DOWN THE FACTORY BELTS
BEND ALL THE SHAFTS
TAKE EVERY MEASURE
TO SLOW DOWN THE HOURS

TEAR DOWN THE WINDMILLS
CLOTHES-LINE THE TURBINES
CAN YOU DO ANYTHING
TO SLOW THE REVOLVING?

Quasar Wut-Wut Chicago, Illinois

Considered the finest rock band ever to have formed in Belleville, Michigan, Quasar Wut-Wut has been "delivering" since 1990. After getting blacklisted from the Detroit club scene we relocated to Chicago in 1999 and have since refused to leave. With five full-lengths, 2 soundtracks, and a new LP, QWW just can't take the hint that no one wants them. We don't mind, we like us just the way we are. ... more
