Bad Examples ~ Every Poet Wants To Murder Shakespeare


Every poet wants to murder shakespeare We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before And everyone invents the world the day that they were born Something’s going on here and it’s going on without me I’m standing on the precipice and counting all my recipes I’m sick and tired of paying homage to the altar Of the things that went before me when i wasn’t born to be there Every poet wants to murder shakespeare We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before And everyone invents the world the day that they were born There’s a painting of my lover in the corner She’s taken off her clothing and she’s standing in the rain Seems like she’s beckoning for me to come and join her But she’s trapped inside a painting and i’m running out of patience I sip a pint of beer and marvel at the magic I must be as drunk as mister marlowe in his prime I stumble through the shambles of my own imagination ‘cause the poet of tomorrow will be just as drunk as i am Every poet wants to murder shakespeare We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before And everyone invents the world the day that they were born Every poet wants to murder shakespeare We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before And everyone invents the world the day that they were born Every poet wants to murder shakespeare... more free lyrics

Every poet wants to murder shakespeare
We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before
And everyone invents the world the day that they were born
Something’s going on here and it’s going on without me
I’m standing on the precipice and counting all my recipes
I’m sick and tired of paying homage to the altar
Of the things that went before me when i wasn’t born to be there

Every poet wants to murder shakespeare
We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before
And everyone invents the world the day that they were born

There’s a painting of my lover in the corner
She’s taken off her clothing and she’s standing in the rain
Seems like she’s beckoning for me to come and join her
But she’s trapped inside a painting and i’m running out of patience

I sip a pint of beer and marvel at the magic
I must be as drunk as mister marlowe in his prime
I stumble through the shambles of my own imagination
‘cause the poet of tomorrow will be just as drunk as i am

Every poet wants to murder shakespeare
We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before
And everyone invents the world the day that they were born
Every poet wants to murder shakespeare
We’re just pissing on the grave of what went on before
And everyone invents the world the day that they were born
Every poet wants to murder shakespeare...

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
