Track 4 on 'Lunatic'
by Daniel Kongos
Oh kids these days
They dont have respect
They just talk on those cellphones
And listen to their tape cassettes
It's what that teacher said
With disgust in every breath
His students listened carelessly
They were easily unimpressed
He said it with such conviction
Whether truth or fiction
And it went
Round and round
They'd reinvent the wheel
Watch it spin and marvel
At the breakthrough
They had found
Another war to end all wars
Depressions are no more
Gravity works on occasion
It won't always bring you to the floor
A Spanish questionnaire
Conquest through love affair
A trillion here or there
I'm sure it'll work with a little prayer

[@robinmartz9052]

they harmonize really well, and they are flawless with their delivery. What a gift they have!!

[@netflixandjeager5215]

"...said it with such conviction..." Mmm, I love the sound of the instruments right after that.

[@Raingirl365]

First time I ever found something good with a Vevo ad!

[@Kamakazi025]

Just heard you guys for the first time on the radio (Come With Me Now), now I'm a fan =) great job guys.

[@lamuchachanomejoda6342]

[@geoffpeters6140]

Love this band & love this song! I find myself listening to it on repeat quite often, it reminds me of Queens of the Stone Age circa Lullabies to Paralyze - but with an accordion!

[@mercedesguy8520]

all their songs are the best

[@heeheehoohoo3692]

THE DRUMMER FOR KONGOS IS SO TALENTED

[@hermesdungeon]

[@nessiguessp1902]

Honestly such an underated song

[@jolantabunar1150]

much pleasure listen them.

[@ColibriEnLlamas]

this song played in direct it sounds harder. Kongos in direct are awesome..

[@Yammenkow]

Cellphones AND tape cassettes? I guess this song is set in the mid-nineties?

[@9OH7Birdman]

If you listened to the rest of the lyrics, the whole song is made up of these cleverly juxtaposed couplets.

[@jacoblucas4259]

Hell, I'd carry around a cassette player.

[@jeddfarley]

Not exactly

[@rhymeswithorange9339]

Great song

[@ryano7746]

Amazing song

[@xtrasprinklz7525]

this song is pure unfiltered inspiration. This is coming from a 12 year old.

[@stellouu]

[@Yammenkow]

(music is very good though)

[@mat11trick]

It's what that teacher said With disgust in every breath

[@jnich22]

This has a very Jimmie's Chicken Shack feeling to it. I like it.

[@PredatorRex10]

Teacher's these days, they don't have respect. They just sit on those spiny chairs and smoke their cigarettes... *Don't take offense, some teachers are epic tbh.* :)

[@satin227]

+PredatorRex10 and smoke "their" cigarettes a teacher taught me their vs there XD

[@PredatorRex10]

+LAN Master (sirswears) Oh yeahh XD I'm sorry I'll edit it and make it correct. Lol what was i thinking 10 months ago me? XD

[@Bioshockinfinant]

What key is this in?

[@Chococacaooo]

I disco-verd yes-terday THUMB UP

[@rebeccakmaccommons6425]

So I take a Humanities course at National American University, but the man who pays every other student an insurance statement for this particular class, has my textbook stolen from my house, and the new HP TouchSmart computer that is supposed to be from my school funds. I don't appreciate the threat to my life in everything I do, for my own education and health and wellbeing. Everyone there has such deceptive motives.

[@CesarForeroNevermind]

kids these days don't listen to this kind of music

[@PredatorRex10]

Cesar Forero I'm not gona tell u my exact age but I'm under 16 and I love this music, I saw kongos live! (In a OneRepublic consert, lol they're amazing too! XD) :D

[@CesarForeroNevermind]

PredatorRex10 keep developing your good musical taste :)

[@PredatorRex10]

Cesar Forero :D Thank you :)

[@PredatorRex10]

Cesar Forero I will. :)

[@Antonbp5]

+Cesar Forero i do

[@Adamdidit]

Great song. Still weird that they pretend to be brothers.

[@TheBardbarians]

The accordion is a nice touch, basically a fuck-you to baby boomers. If only there was also gin involved. The rest it sounds way too modern though, like something that kids these days would listen to.

[@Dennis_S1000RR]

3:57 best part of the song.
