Harvey Danger - Cream And Bastards Rise (Writing Snippet) Lyrics
You're doing everything your people said to.
I'd hate to be the one to break it to you.
It's only sad 'cause it's true;
They misled you when they bred you.
Somebody said some things they had no right to
could simply not follow through if he had to
(but you have to, don't you?)
You don't have to be a genius, but it helps to (it helps to)
Fools and charlatans, they may get wise
But only cream and bastards rise -- and you can see it in their eyes
You followed good advices to the letter
You know your friend?
He's doing so much better than you are ever likely to do
You don't have to be a genius but it helps to (helps to)
All the also-rans are real nice guys
But only cream and bastards rise:
People who could buy and sell you
Sharing a joke that they will never tell you
You think you're dialed in
Someone has to win, and you know what that means...
It means someone's gotta lose
It's probably you, oh whoa ho ho ho,
It's probably you, oh whoa ho ho ho.
It's not a race, it's not a competition
And if it were you'd be in no position to
Get them to listen to you if you had to
Not even if your life depended on it
You don't have to be a genius, but it helps to, (it helps to)
Some are aliens, the rest are spies
But only cream and bastards rise -- and you can see it in their ah, ha, ha, ha,
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Ah-ha ha-ha ha-ha ha,
Ah-ha ha-ha ha-ha ha,
Ah-ha ha-ha ha-ha ha,
Ah-ha ha-ha!

Harvey Danger Cream And Bastards Rise (Writing Snippet) Comments
Im love these Riff.
idk why neccesarily but one of favorite songs ever
Little by Little was such a fucking astonishingly good final album.
This is what OCD sounds like.
This song is soooooooo good. These guys deserved way more recognition than they had.
@***** And their other ones should have been as well.
Really like this song...Some are aliens, the rest are spies
This sounds SOOO much like Radiohead to me idk why lol
guitar solo sounds like paranoid android
band reminds me of Cage the elephant
Except that Cage The Elephant sucks, doesn't rock and sounds like every other Mellinial fem-band
N M Bite your tongue.
hell yeah not the only cte & harvey danger fan
why did they break up?
Well, they planned to stop making music basically. I guess they just settled on the realization that they weren't going to be big huge rockstars and decided to play one last show and move on with their lives. And Aaron Huffman the bassist died about a year or 2 ago so now there will never be a reunion. Sean Nelson gave several interviews about it. I mean, they made 3 absolutely flawless albums and they had fun and a little success. All good things must end. Otherwise you're metallica, making royalties for 20 years without recording anything new or even anything worth a fuck (HWTSD is better) , or U2.
i remember when this song came out
It's sad these guys broke up. They should've been superstars, but only cream and bastards rise.
god i miss this band
Because this is YouTube.
Why is the only comment some weird guy?
