Steal Your T.V., by The Pink 50's

Steal Your T.V.

by The Pink 50's

supported by

Dan Schell Fast, energetic punk rock with minimalist post punk and grunge overtones. The fun factor is my first impression; they sound like they're having a blast and their sense of humor shines through with fat, fuzzy riffs from a wonderfully feral guitar that wouldn't be allowed across a church's threshold. There are traditional underpinnings in 7 distinct tracks but also plenty of creative vision swirling around these tunes...and plenty of potential for great things ahead. Favorite track: Smile.

Transmission Emergency countdown in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... All units report to Sector 4 for project commencement in which we will extract the symbiote cell from the symbiote time capsule Humanity is in your hands... Transmission Reportin’ to Sector 5! There seems to be some miscalculation in the operation In which we attempted to extract the symbiote cell from the symbiote cell pod Emergency countdown... Transmission We have a problem! We have a red alert... We have a red alert The symbiote cells started to multiply at an alarming rate Binding themselves to our D.N.A. using our human bodies as a host, Resulting in a mission failure... We're all fucked! Why!?!?!?!

I can hear them screamin’ It’s comin’ from the ceilin’ You think I might be kiddin’ I think it might be children What have I done? I thought it could be fun I only did it so many times Didn’t think that it was such a crime It’s not gettin’ any easier There’s no more room in the freezer There’s no more room in the cielin’ The tiles have started peelin’ What’s that at my back door? I can’t take this anymore My head is so sore I thought I told those kids not to come around no more Well they’ll all come to get me The guilt is comin’ on heavy Just let me say my goodbyes Don’t think I’ll be back next time Here they come to arrest me... I think they’re finally resting I thought I heard the sound of childrens’ feet The police have got the tally up to 63! 63! 63! 63! Six three!

7.	The Pink 50's - Smile 03:31	lyrics	buy track
Somethin’ bad happened to me today Somethin’ so bad, I can’t even say I never thought this could happen to me I’m thinkin’ to myself. “How could this be?” How could somebody do somethin’ so bad? Can’t tell my parents because they might get mad, they said... They say “Nobody’s gon’ believe what you say” “You better take that secret with you to the grave!” Will I get over it? It’s gonna take a while... So for now I just take everybody’s advice and just smile Smile Smile Smile Somethin’ bad happened to me today It shouldn’t’ve even gone that way! Never in my life have I felt so alone Every time I see the woods I get frozen to the bone He took me by the hand, evil grin upon his face He took me to an evil, dark, scary, secluded place The next few moments became very vile Looked at me, sent me on my way Said “Don’t forget to smile” Smile Smile Smile

Shortness of breath Feel like I'm fading When I'm losing my sense Brain is going crazy Gotta do something fast Mind is not relating that the fact that I’m fine Mind is not relating to the fact that I'm dying Mind is not relating to the fact that I'm trying To deal with all the bullshit that happens inside My mind is going crazy when it happens inside My mind is going crazy! In the hospital for hours Heart is doin‘ fine In the hospital for hours Lungs are doin’ fine In the hospital for hours My blood is doin’ fine When it happens inside Mind is doin’ fine When it happens inside Mind is doin’ fine When it happens inside Mind is doin’ fine When it happens inside Mind is doin’ fine When it happens inside I am doin’ fine! Shove an IV up my ass Doctors give me Keflex Shove an IV up my ass Doctors give me Keflex Shove an IV up my ass Doctors give me Keflex Shove an IV up my ass Doctors give me Keflex
