Sonic Youth - Total Trash Lyrics
[Thurston]
It start at the top
Now it's spiralling down
Works best when it's lost
Diggin' under the ground
Never mind it now
We can bring it back
It's total trash
And it's a natural fact
That I'm not no cow
It's never the same
It's more than a game
Can't take it away
Can't kill all the shame
It's a guilty man
That increased the crack
It's total trash
Sack 'em on the back
With a heavy rock
There he goes again
Magic monkey friend
Can I love the time
That he seems to spend
With all the kids in town
It start at the top
Now it's spiralling down
Works best when it's lost
Diggin' under the ground
Never mind it now
We can bring it back
It's total trash
And it's a natural fact
That I'm not no cow

*The Seraphim of an Evolution*
Humanity is like an intelligent insect, although creative, is wholly devoid of a certain emotional spark. Any humans born with normal emotional qualities soon lose them to drugs or insanity. This may be the underlying theme of their religious efforts; to create that spark or return it through a learned effort. In other words, humankind mostly lacks the inate emotional intelligence that would be their human spark. This may explain their obsessions with A.I., gods and sexuality. Their creative efforts are largely irrelevant, rhetorical, historical, and lack in this emotional maturity and grasp. A human with normal emotional qualities will dislike recreational drugs of an excessive nature but a human that lacks these emotional qualities may struggle for years or more...
MY MOM IS SUCH A FUCKING COCK BLOCK I STG
Enorme los Sonic!!!!!
Ironic such a good song is called "Total Trash"
Damn this is great! First time listening to this. Wow this is incredible sounding!!! So catchy, I could just vomit. Love this fkn garbage.
{timeless/peerless}
I can sorta make out the velvet underground influence here
Mr. Joey "sort of"
entire album is white light white heat pt. 2
Great album
Yes it is, but I kinda like 'Sister' better. Just saying. :-)
Esta rola me pone feliz. (:
The alleged sound explosion or "melting" part is so hard to listen too... dig the song tho
timeless shit
When I first heard it I thought it was Iggy with Sonic Youth...However their best song!
Does anyone know how they were able to make the song "melt" around 2:49? Everything goes out of tune and it sounds awesome. Studio trickery?

THe tuning is G G D D D# D# so you get dissonance really easy. It's just playing (what would be) the G and B string at the same time
Scraping a drumstick up and down your fretboard may help
@Calum Forbes They did that in a lotta songs! I think it was mainly tuning for this one though : ) their G G D D D# D# tuning has a v particular sound and timbre
I can do that by putting my finger gently on the album while it's playing.
lol I'm not no cow
My favorite band is better than your favorite band.
+Jaxson Jillix Same
Jaxson Jillix fuck you! my favorite band is better than YOUR favorite band!
Correct
Jaxson Jillix my favorite band is the velvet underground which is pretty hard to top m8
Your favorite band is total trash, sir.
cool kids in town
One of the best, most influential bands of all time that very few people know about. Moore and company have done more for underground rock 'n' roll than anyone.
Trevor Wallace 'very few people know about' --> 100k views
total fucking trash
Perhaps the greatest album to come out of the 80's...that almost nobody knows about
Don't worry, the ones that knows are enough....
Blame the west coast and MTV.
almost nobody??
Hey yawl, I sez ALMOST nobody...but yes, for the people that matter, they knows!!
A lot of people know about this album
MINDBLOWING O_O
IS TOTAL TRASHHHHHHHHH
Life is a degenerate cosmic addiction.
Yeah, I always thought they sounded post-punk.
Hints of Joy Division, brilliant
Τι Hints of Joy Division ... άσχετη απο μουσική είσαι ... από πούτσους πως τα πας?
Ive got a fat one, and this track is killing me, all i do is smoke reads my resume . fuck you. muah.
no algebra = no guitar, no amplifiers and no advanced civilization of any kind, period.
Muslim mathematicians translated the Arithmetica of Diophantus from Greek & being able to solve problems gave them a lot of basis for power at the time
Do your algebra boys & girls. It's not a boring at all as long as you find the right teacher. Yes, noise-rock will not help you concentrate but something ambient & mellow & relaxing without a heavy drum beat will actually enhance your concentration.
Sonic Youth is my favorite band!
Zero dislikes? Yes!!!
Sonic Youth vai ser o melhor do SWU!!!
LOCK THE CAPS
@gisimead algebra is total trash anyways.
SONIC YEAAAAHH
I FIGURED I'D ADD SOME MOAR CAPS JUST IN CASE!!!
@sprinklesonaplane CAPS LOCK RULES!
This song is nasty and brutish (but not short). Good stuff.
My favourite SY song of all times is Teenage Riot, but thisone is the second, so thanks.
@sprinklesonaplane NO PROBLEM, MAN! SONIC YOUTH RULES!
Sonic Youth, yeah!
