Propagandhi - Laughing Stock Lyrics






I revelled in the news of your botched suicide. Seemed such fitting fortune that you should die twice. But my sense of vengeance withered and withdrew when I saw what remained ushered into the room: a fun house reflection of the strapping thug that was. Diapered, deformed and drooling through that simpering smile, that puerile grin for the camera crew. I stared long and hard but I could find no trace of the piece of human shit that tortured, killed and raped Shidane Arone. Wrong time, wrong place. He was 16 years old. They say you reap what you sow and sometimes I force myself to rifle through the images so I believe that too. The fool seeks retribution, the fool leaves seeking penitence. Forgive me, I know not what I do. Laughing stock.

    Nailed it again. I've seen them live twice now, and they sound the same on record as they do live. Absolutely incredible musicians. 10/10 would listen to again, and again, and again.

    I revelled in the news of your botched suicide
    Seemed such fitting fortune that you should die twice
    But my sense of vengeance withered and withdrew
    When I saw what remained ushered into the room:
    A fun house reflection of
    The sadistic, strapping thug that was
    Diapered, deformed and drooling through
    That simpering smile
    That puerile grin for the camera crew

    I stared long and hard, but I could find no trace
    Of the piece of human shit that tortured, killed and raped
    Shidane Arone
    Wrong time, wrong place
    He was 16 years old

    They say you reap what you sow
    And sometimes I force myself to rifle through
    The images so I believe that, too
    The fool seeks retribution, the fool leaves seeking penitence

    Forgive me
    I know not what I do
    Laughing stock

    despite their politics, still the most intelligent and well put together punk band ever.

    @seanmurrell85 no but his statement is right, apart from their politics their music is good.

    H.... M....

    @sirundying I whole heartily agree

    H.... M....

    @sirundying I guess I was just saying their politics was a big draw for me as well as their musicianship. I don't agree with everything they say but, most of it.
