[00:00:00] Europe Is Lost (Explicit) - Kae Tempest

[00:00:04] Written by：Caroline International

[00:00:09] Europe is lost

[00:00:11] America lost

[00:00:12] London lost

[00:00:13] Still we are clamouring victory

[00:00:15] All that is meaningless rules

[00:00:17] We have learned nothing from history

[00:00:18] The people are dead in their lifetimes

[00:00:20] Dazed in the shine of the streets

[00:00:22] But look how the traffic still moving

[00:00:24] System's too slick to stop working

[00:00:26] Business is good

[00:00:27] And there's bands every night in the pubs

[00:00:29] And there's two for one drinks in the clubs

[00:00:30] We scrubbed up well

[00:00:32] Washed off the work and the stress

[00:00:34] And now all we want's some excess

[00:00:35] Better yet

[00:00:36] A night to remember that we'll soon forget

[00:00:39] All of the blood

[00:00:40] That was blead for these cities to grow

[00:00:42] All of the bodies that fell

[00:00:43] The roots that were dug from the earth

[00:00:45] So these games could be played

[00:00:46] I see it tonight in the stains on my hands

[00:00:49] The buildings are screaming

[00:00:51] I can't ask for help though

[00:00:52] Nobody knows me

[00:00:53] Hostile worried lonely

[00:00:55] We move in our packs

[00:00:56] And these are the rights we were born to

[00:00:58] Working and working so we can be all that we want

[00:01:01] Then dancing the drudgery off

[00:01:03] But even the drugs have got boring

[00:01:05] Well sex is still good when you get it

[00:01:08] To sleep to dream to keep the dream in reach

[00:01:10] To each a dream

[00:01:11] Don't weep don't scream

[00:01:12] Just keep it in

[00:01:14] Keep sleeping in

[00:01:15] What am I gonna do to wake up

[00:01:20] I feel the cost of it pushing my body

[00:01:22] Like I push my hands into pockets

[00:01:24] And softly I walk and I see it it's all we deserve

[00:01:27] The wrongs of our past have resurfaced

[00:01:29] Despite all we did to vanquish the traces

[00:01:32] My very language is tainted

[00:01:34] With all that we stole to replace it with this

[00:01:36] I am quiet

[00:01:37] Feeling the onset of riot

[00:01:39] But riots are tiny though

[00:01:40] Systems are huge

[00:01:41] Traffic keeps moving proving there's nothing to do

[00:01:44] It's big business baby and it's smile is hideous

[00:01:47] Top down violence

[00:01:48] Structural viciousness

[00:01:49] Your kids are doped up on medical sedatives

[00:01:52] But don't worry 'bout that

[00:01:53] Worry 'bout terrorists

[00:01:54] The water levels rising

[00:01:55] The water levels rising

[00:01:56] The animals the elephants the polarbears are dying

[00:01:59] Stop crying

[00:01:59] Start buying

[00:02:00] But what about the oil spill

[00:02:01] Shh

[00:02:02] No one likes a party pooping spoil sport

[00:02:04] Massacres massacres massacresnew shoes

[00:02:06] Ghettoised children murdered in broad daylight by those employed to protect them

[00:02:11] Live porn streamed to your pre teens bedrooms

[00:02:14] Glass ceiling no headroom

[00:02:15] Half a generation live beneath the breadline

[00:02:18] Oh but it's happy hour on the high street

[00:02:20] Friday night at last lads my treat

[00:02:23] All went fine till that kid got glassed in the last bar

[00:02:26] Place went nuts you can ask our Lou

[00:02:28] It was madness the road ran red pure claret

[00:02:30] And about them immigrants I can't stand them

[00:02:33] Mostly I mind my own business

[00:02:35] They're only coming over here to get rich

[00:02:37] It's a sickness

[00:02:38] England England

[00:02:39] Patriotism

[00:02:40] And you wonder why kids want to die for religion

[00:02:43] Work all your life for a pittance

[00:02:45] Maybe you'll make it to manager

[00:02:46] Pray for a raise

[00:02:47] Cross the beige days off on your beach babe calendar

[00:02:50] Anarchists desperate for something to smash

[00:02:52] Scandalous pictures of fashionable rappers in glamorous magazines

[00:02:56] Who's dating who

[00:02:57] Politico cash in an envelope

[00:02:59] Caught sniffing lines off a prostitutes prosthetic tits

[00:03:02] And it's back to the house of Lords with slapped wrists

[00:03:04] They abduct kids and f**k the heads of dead pigs

[00:03:07] But him in a hoodie with a couple of spliffs

[00:03:09] Jail him he's the criminal

[00:03:12] Jail him he's the criminal

[00:03:14] It's the Bored

[00:03:15] Of all generation

[00:03:17] The product of product placement and manipulation

[00:03:19] Shoot 'em up brutal duty of care

[00:03:21] Come on new shoes

[00:03:22] Beautiful hair

[00:03:24] Bullsh*t saccharine ballads

[00:03:25] And selfies

[00:03:26] And selfies

[00:03:27] And selfies

[00:03:27] And here's me outside the palace of me

[00:03:30] Construct a self and psyhcosis

[00:03:31] Meanwhile the people are dead in their droves

[00:03:34] But nobody noticed

[00:03:35] Well some of them noticed

[00:03:36] You could tell by the emoji they posted

[00:03:38] Sleep like a gloved hand covers our eyes

[00:03:41] The lights are so nice and bright and let's dream

[00:03:43] But some of us are stuck like stones in a slipstream

[00:03:46] What am I gonna do wake up

[00:03:51] We are lost

[00:03:51] We are lost

[00:03:52] We are lost

[00:03:52] And still nothing

[00:03:53] Will stop

[00:03:54] Nothing pauses

[00:03:55] We have ambitions and friendship

[00:03:56] And our courtships to think of

[00:03:57] Divorces to drink off the thought of

[00:04:00] The money

[00:04:01] The money

[00:04:01] The oil

[00:04:02] The planet is shaking and spoiled

[00:04:04] Life is a plaything

[00:04:05] A garment to soil

[00:04:06] The toil the toil

[00:04:08] I can't see an ending at all

[00:04:10] Only the end

[00:04:11] How is this something to cherish

[00:04:13] When the tribesmen are dead in their deserts

[00:04:14] To make room for alien structures

[00:04:16] Develop

[00:04:17] Develop

[00:04:18] And kill what you find if it threatens you

[00:04:20] No trace of love in the hunt for the bigger buck

[00:04:23] Here in the land where nobody gives a f**k
