Another song pulled from the cassette tape vaults from our beloved garage punk heroes, The Performa-Chords. "The Kids Are Dead" is from 1981, and features Kevin on guitar, Dena on vocals and spontaneous lyric-making-upping, and -- *cough* -- some teenage goofball on Performa-Chord organ. Downloadable HERE for absolutely no money or other item of trade or barter value! Please to enjoy!
Lyrics:
Don't give me such a hard time
'Cause baby, all I ever do is try
I go to work at the factory
And you're never home waitin' for me
Is this what I live for?
I come home and I walk through the door
And the house is empty and the kids are dead
Oh baby, it hurts my head
Ouch!
Ouch!
Oh it hurts!
Gimme pain
I want pain
'Cause I'm Iggy Pop and I cut myself up
Oh baby.
"The Kids Are Dead," The Performa-Chords
