Voices getting bit mad, Voices driving me loopy, Voices telling me that, Something’s up in my head, Voices echoing back Forth, back- Voices getting me sad-sad, Voices getting me sc-sc-scared, Nowhere to run, all the voices are always there Whisper, whisper, whisper, whisper Wh-wh-wh-wh-what-oh! It’s alternative fa-fa-fact time, In alternative la-la-landslide, In alternative world- web, Called alternative right-r-right, left Always telling me the s-s-same lies, Always repeating the s-s-same lines, Always wanna mess with my head! Big Brother likes us b-b-brain dead! Big Brother likes us wa-wa-watching! I just came back from the d-d-doctors, They wanna tell me how to f-f-function, They just gave me some P-P-Prozac, Make me down for con-su-su-sumption They under the as-su-su-sumption, That I care what I act- act- act like They know I’m not munching, None of these bloody “prescribed” things, They saying I’m crazy- Come tell me what I’m not like Fine, I’m a mug, I’m a dumb type, Might be paro, I’m not nice I’m just a little bit lost right now cos I guess- We’re such dumb and angry young people, Sitting under these “equals” Who tell us we have freedom, Telling us we should think more, Telling us we should think less, Tell us what you want hear next, Tell us what you want hear next, Tell us what you want- Tell us what you want- Tell us what we don’t care for, We don’t care for your pep talk, We get tired of all talk, Hurts our heads to be informed, I don’t care, I’m not involved, I’m not selfish, I’m disco- -nnected from all the info- -rmation I’m hard to pin hole! I don’t care for no deep thought! What’s the point in it? What’s the point in it? What’s the point? Cos it seems long! Pray away a day! Pray away a day! Pray away to my fake God! Faith hold me down, keep me in place It’s a brave new world, It’s a brave new world for the human race Winston Smith wrote words in a book, Winston Smith wrote words in a book, That he bought from a store in a burning bush, In a world full of faith in a failing thought, That his masters push with an urgent force, Like a burning cross, in a burning hell Full of burnt out hearts, To replace what’s gone from the mind like memories old Cigarette butts in a ashtray soul, Dead grey black in the sky tonight, it’s hard to feel safe Eyes all time... Ffv-ffv-vu-vu-vuvu- Vultures, Vultures, Vultures watch me... Hairs on the skin go erect... Hides in a crack in the wall, Winston’s free in a brave new world screaming God God... We’re such dumb and angry young people, Sitting under these “equals” Who tell us we have freedom, Telling us we should think more, Telling us we should think less, Tell us what’s in our interest, Tell us what you want hear next Tell us what you want- Tell us what you want- Tell us what we don’t care for, We don’t care for your pep talk, We get tired of all talk, Hurts our heads to be informed, I don’t care I’m not involved, I’m not selfish I’m disco- -nnected from all the info- -rmation cos... Right, left, wrong, right- Bet you’re bloody mad if you don’t fit in like Us, them, you, I- Everybody watching, everybody shut your eyes Be blind, deaf, mute- Anybody-anybody-anybody else? Make them better- Pills are a cure! Behave! Behave! Right, left, wrong, right- Bet you’re bloody mad if you don’t fit in like Us, them, you, I- Everybody watching, everybody shut your eyes Be blind, deaf, mute- Anybody-anybody-anybody else? Make them better- Pills are a cure! Behave! Behave!

You hold me down, Into the water you drown me with, Pleading for breath, you just hold me in, Die any second, cry I should swim, Weighing me down, you don’t lie to him, Baptise slowly, I’ll find my sin, At the bottom a bottle, I pry for it, See a white light and I fly for it, Love it kills me, I’m fine with it I am not a name, I am blind numbers, 0 double 7 0 codename, I am just a life target Need me a mother, she’ll love me like a child, If my mother liked me quite like you did, Or didn’t hate me like my kid did, Only be a lie say I could fix, Only be a lie say I know what time it is, And I’m tired of this, Etcetera cetera, minds lost in the Fritz- Lang I love him, he makes me feel nice in this, Metropolis grey world where I exist You’re sad and I’m angry, Let’s be friends, We don’t have anything, let’s pretend (x3) Broke my lips with a kiss, You are stone cold Sorrow bites, I am mosquito Tell me twice, I am nothing more, Tell me once and then let me go, Give me faith and give me control, Tell me lies and I’ll tell you more, Words are nothing, I know you know Tell me something love, bet you won’t You’re sad and I’m angry, Let’s be friends... You’re sad and I’m angry, Let’s be friends, We don’t have anything, let’s pretend (x3) Lost my mind in the library, With an AR-15, 15 dead bodies, Kids aged 16, Sick dreams for the weeks in advance, Class gonna pay back for the way they treat me, When I buy my piece, Imma get it my way, All these pretty faced brats get a bullet in the face I ain’t taking those pills, they fuck with my brain, All I have is you, let’s go together, insane, I can’t cope, the way I play these thoughts back in my head, Been adapting to death, I play these video games that make killing feel straight and narrow I am an animal, paranoid, Tryna haggle reason with force, Of course you saw it coming! Gunning (blasting!) I’m grasping harboured rage in a casket, All I forgot was my victims had never asked for it, Turning my weapon onto myself, You are my only love, let’s come together in health, Bang Bitty bang bitty bang bang Bang bang ticky bang bang

T.V. told me radio’s dead, You’re a radio head, Where you gonna get the news from next? The internet says all that telly in your head is cancer, You don’t care no more though you’re like (Fuck it) 21st century animals, I’ll be American, When I have it all, I’ll live full luxury while telling them, They could have it too as if it’s true that wealth is fairer than, Colour of the skin, my pigment is my own inheritance I like advertise, my specialty is what you really want! I’m not selling dreams, I’m selling everything you ever got! Give a jingle, show some colour, trick a couple idiots, Now the world is mine and all because I package everyone, Screaming- You don’t know me! You don’t know me! Can’t control me! You don’t know what I need! Nah! It’s so lonely! Think you own me! Give me space, please, I can barely breath! Oh God, God... Oh no, not again, they’re tryna talk to me… Stop tryna talk to me… They always talk to me… They only talk at me… So why you asking me? Every day I wake up feel the same, I’m saying fuck that! Life’s a bitch, you tell me don’t complain, I’m saying fuck that! All these adverts taking way too long, I’m saying fuck that! All these slogans caught up in my brain, I’m saying fuck that! (x2) Don’t you love our brand? We would love to have you! Anytime you're feeling like, love to finally hear from you! Don’t we all love to have nice things, sometimes? Don’t you want them all too? Uh. Lost my mind and for what? What? Now I’m broke and for what? What? All I wanted is what? What- Ever I never had got- got, Now I’m lost thinking what? What- Was the point of it all now, when the world changed, And the worth of it was what? What- Ever master said it costs, costs I don’t know what I want, want, You tell me what I like, love, need, How much that I need and what- what- The price that I pay is and not- not- If I can afford or not- not, I wanna own all you got- got, You wanna take all I own and I’m fine I don’t mind giving you what I got- got Don’t want to recap what these bad thoughts, Do to the mind when you’re distracted from, Real reality and need much more, Economy interest to keep on form, And greed is easy to not control, Consumerist hijacks, and on the dole, The humorous aspects can get so dull, Until I’m broken and insecure Don’t leave bed till the shops are closed, Adam and Eve still believe in Fairy Liquid, And Depop clothes Coca-Cola can make a soul, P.G Tips, the Tea Party want to free the guns and eat you whole, But best believe the state is on your phone, Watching who, what, where and why you call, Don’t call on me at all, No... Love when you talk to me Love how you talk to me I wish you’d talk to me Why don’t you talk to me? You don’t know me, You don’t know me, Can’t control me, you don’t know what I need, nah You don’t know me, You don’t know me, Can’t control me, you don’t know what I need, nah... Every day I wake up feel the same, I’m saying fuck that! Life’s a bitch, you tell me don’t complain, I’m saying fuck that! All these adverts taking way too long, I’m saying fuck that! All these slogans caught up in my brain, I’m saying fuck that! (x2)

about

AV Dummy Birmingham, UK

AV Dummy is a British group sprung from the internet to create a manic, schizophrenic musical universe assembled from discarded and overlooked sounds and technologies. AV Dummy are both a product and a reaction to the world they live in. A band weary of the internet and social media, yet formed on those very platforms. As influenced by mass disposable culture as clearly as they rebel against it. ... more
