Dead Kennedys - Your Emotions Lyrics






Your mommy told you this
And your daddy told you that
Always think like this
And never do that
You learned so many feelings
But what is there to that
Which are really yours
Or are you just a copycat

Your school told you this
And your church told you that
Memorize this
And don't you dare look at that
...

Just a tape recorder
Mimicking of the bores

You're so boring boring boring
Always tape machine recording
You're so boring boring boring
I've heard all this before

Planless and mindless
Scraps from anywhere
Bunch of used parts
From garbage pails everywhere
Frankenstein became a monster
Just like you
Your scars only show
When someone talks to you

You're so boring boring boring
Always tape machine recording
You're so boring boring boring
I've heard all this before
I've heard all this before
I've heard all this before
Your emotions make you a monster
Your emotions make you a monster
Your emotions make you a monster
Your emotions make you a monster

Dead Kennedys Your Emotions Comments
  1. Z.... A....

    This is probably why me and another girl at school have a made-up religion where Jello is a god

  2. D.... D....

    i'M GOING TO FRED MEYER NOW

  3. D.... D....

    I don't know if it is truly applicable. Due to believing my WIFI is hacked into and monitored by the US Executive office and army psychological ops I spend half of my time online saying things into my internet to cause as much panic and mistaken postures as I can. Just this moment after saying some pretty messed up stuff I played this song because I sense my life is at risk. I hope it works because the metal objects I am being intimidated with sound like they would hurt my innocent person.

  4. R.... B....

    Youre so boring boring boring - Me to every girl I try talking to on dating apps

  5. h.... ....

    I like short songs :-)

  6. d.... ....

    I don't have any emotions, the lobotomy was a success.

  7. o.... ....

    Silence is original

  8. E.... W....

    God i love the DKs

  9. a.... ....

    Dk will live us always

  10. P.... ....

    Jello 2020!!!!

  11. g.... ....

    This song is also know as "Ode to the alt-right conservatives".

    g.... ....

    I don't think you understand the lyrics

    g.... ....

    You did not understand the lyrics.

  12. H.... S....

    rap god before rap god was rap god

    H.... S....

    Hiram Salinas no

    H.... S....

    Adem Zettl k

    H.... S....

    That's "Drug me".

    H.... S....

    @grrizo word!

  13. E.... G....

    I like trains.

  14. n.... ....

    I always thought he said, "your emotions make you my master". Ignorance wasn't bliss I guess.

  15. J.... K....

    This is just as relevant as it was 30 years ago

    J.... K....

    Bob B. Ya estás sistematizado

    J.... K....

    Most their songs are.

  16. J.... ....

    ohoh my favourite DK's song

  17. C.... R....

    Legends.

  18. J.... F....

    Even as a kid this one hit me.

  19. T.... B....

    Can someone please help out, I've scoured sites for weeks and i can't find the lyrics to your emotions in their entirety. A friend of mine had mixed for them on several shows here in Australia, and he's a pretty hardcore DK fan, but even he's in the dark with the missing couple of lines. Please folks, I'm new to DK and absolutely love their stuff, so excuse my ignorance if what I seek is common knowledge

    T.... B....

    In the description of the video, where it says "..." the line (I think) is "There's some light coming from the door" or "It's something that I don't adore", but I'm not sure.

    T.... B....

    @UberSchluh
     : They're all so concerned to make their thoughts into yours just a tape recorder mimicking of the bores

  20. S.... P....

    "Your scars only show when someone talks to you."

    S.... P....

    I've been thinking about what exactly could that mean. Any ideas? :D

    S.... P....

    Nah it actually makes perfect sense, thanks :)

  21. T.... ....

    i just got this album yesterday

  22. J.... S....

    Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables is one of the best albums of the 80s, if not of all time. Hard to believe that it was released in 1980, as it still sounds awesome after all these years.

  23. B.... S....

    Except sometimes your parents want's the best for you and some people that don't have them or have abusive ones wish that Luck.

  24. N.... M....

    MonsteeeeeeeerrrrrrrrUEAUGH!!!

  25. l.... ....

    Wow such a good song with an amazing message good job dead kennedys!

  26. m.... ....

    Because most people walk around with thier heads up thier asses and don't know much about music thay don't hear on the radio. I like the song Forward to Death, but the whole album is still Fucking Awsome 33 years later!

  27. s.... ....

    Because it wasn't one of their political ones, but it is my personal favorite DK song. Don't get me wrong I love the DKs and grew up with their music (especially this album), but some of their songs got too preachy later on.

  28. g.... ....

    East Bay Ray is quite an underrated guitarist.

  29. B.... M....

    I got a funny ass asian ad xD first time i actually watched an ad without skipping it lol

  30. s.... ....

    lol advertisement for a silly cell phone on a DK video.

  31. R.... ....

    It's just one of those really good songs that isn't popular for some reason, no matter how popular it should be. Most bands have them

  32. s.... ....

    WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT THE FUCK... ADVERTISMENT ON DK's VIDEO

  33. A.... ....

    I asked jello for the missing lyric to this song and he said it was:

    They're all
    so concerned to make their thoughts into yours
    just a tape recorder
    mimicking of the bores

  34. S.... W....

    dread-ful kennedys :D

  35. P.... ....

    lmfao.
    the first 2 seconds reminded my buddy of Heat Of The Moment by Asia

  36. M.... B....

    @MrDoomsday666 I love this song, but here's some food for thought. If the term sociopath means manipulating others to get what we want, aren't we all sociopaths?

  37. D.... ....

    @toymasheenSH I don't hear "soul". I could swear he says something about blah blah "team of surgeons" blah blah.

  38. h.... ....

    This means more than you realise.....

  39. g.... ....

    DEAD KENNEDYS!
    AGENT ORANGE!

  40. E.... ....

    @aaronpnd because a lot of people are posers

  41. t.... ....

    @leprosok22 he says way more than that. I think you are right about "soul" though

  42. l.... ....

    Your school told you this
    And your church told you that
    Memorize this
    And don't you dare look at that
    Never seen their soul just kicking the door
    Just a tape recorder
    Mimicking of the bores

  43. S.... B....

    One of the best songs on this album, my favourite part is 1:00 onwards. Fuck it, it's a short song i'll say the whole thing.

  44. s.... n....

    @toymasheenSH I don't think Jello even knows it haha

  45. t.... ....

    What's wrong with tape machine recording ???

  46. A.... ....

    @Worfelzarz i concur.

  47. A.... ....

    lol isnt everybody boring? all my classmates are.

  48. P.... ....

    one of their best imo as well

  49. t.... ....

    I like how nobody knows the lyrics in between "don't you dare look at that" and "just a tape recorder"

  50. m.... ....

    I just realized how fucked some of us are when America starts prosecuting people for being anti-government. Or I should say I like the government. I just think the people who represent it can go die in a fire.

  51. J.... S....

    @asonjaryg wtf? no it doesnt

  52. r.... ....

    @osharemind sounds like some random backtracked shit

  53. M.... ....

    What does Jello say at 0:26?

  54. j.... w....

    love it

  55. s.... ....

    this song is the tits

  56. T.... W....

    Is it ironic if I memorize this song?

  57. S.... ....

    This song embodies the punk attitude towards questioning what you're told and thinking for yourself. JELLO, YOU ARE MY PERSONAL HERO!

  58. j.... ....

    best Dead Kennedys album for sure. and one of the best songs off of it.
