The Faint - Your Retro Career Melted

- Lyrics:
Recovering slowly, a torso fell
From a beat up truck by a rural motel.
The manager seen how the truck bed bounced
While dust flew up with a rolling sound.
Voices appear from the staff outside
In bulbous text in a western style
His mannequin neck spun to turn his face
The bars spills drunks out frame by frame
Girls pushed girls side to side
To hear a suction sound as limbs relign
The crowd just seemed to multiply
They hear his plastic jaw as the news drops hard:
"Your retro career melted"
They couldn't have agreed with the manniquin less
They didn't understand what the manniquin meant
The sound of a barrelled gun held to the back
Some plastic clicks as the shell parts pass.
Fleshtone shards fly by wild
They fill a plastic bag with the parts inside
The bag got dumped, a town nearby
They reassembled fast as his voice dropped hard:
"Your retro career melted"
Anyone who listens to the faint knows good music!!
Got me through Catholic high school gay doods! Thank you! Brilliance
Funny story! I first heard this song when I was 8 years old… my Aunt had this CD…. She played it ONCE… and I remembered this song 15 years later and asked her the name….. I’ve probably played this song 100 times! 😅
saw them in pomona the other week, such good energy! they still got it
God damn this song rocks!
the Cut Copy remix of this is EPIC its on Fabriclive album No# 29
I love listening to The Faint. Always a blast to drive to also.
Damn, my comment from 12 years ago. Still listening to The Faint.
@@LucidDream :o
I can hardly believe it's been 5 months since our dialogue began. Where does the time go?
Anyone in Nashville? The Faint is playing at Mercy Lounge for $20! Danse Macabre in its entirety!
Hell yeah ill meet you there
Picturing some pissed off dept manager storming out of a closing Shopko store carrying his favorite underwear display model
the faints lyrics are so hard to interpret. Good songs though
Manifest destiny
Why. The fuck. Are they not on my radio still?
@Bluelunes I just remembered what I commented. LOL.
I fell in.
AWESOME DUDE! like it
@Griffo619 lol the album cover is shown during the entire song
Bit of an ironic title
you just telephoned a copy/fax machine and products are flying off the shelves now that barcodes and scanners are in use, the year is someplace late seventies and the punk scene just kicked up in your area but disco isn't dead and so far working at dad's hardware store hasn't been all bad, so you figure "fuck it i'm gonna go to this ska show"
I didn't know my s10 could do burn outs until I heard this song. haha. the faint makes me drive way too fast. rip Mr. squirrel
