… but not anymore!” The latest single by the witty Australian artist is a driving drum-machine, thrumming bass and blistering guitar punk banger, a humorous perspective on changing your ways, with vocal style influences such as Suicide and Throbbing Gristle. It heralds his forthcoming fourth album, Drama King, out on 31 May via Spinning Top Records. To explore and enjoy more by Peter Bibby, see also the other embedded links below.
Well, I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
You see, the drugs I used to love, I just don't love them no more
Well, the party in the carryon ain't doing me no favours
These days, I'm all about discipline and labour
You see, I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
Well, good time in the back seat, money in the front
You'd be forgiven if you said that I'm a cunt
These get-togethers don't do nothing for me
I got better things to do with my energy
Well, I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
Well, I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
I'm a terrible character with redeeming qualities
I have a healthy disrespect for all authority
I come with a disgust for the general majority
And I eat at the table with rejected personalities
Well, it doesn't even matter where the fuck do you aim
I used to be a love guy, but now I ain't
I matured, living had gotten all too much
My Achilles was torn and I'd lost my crutch
I used to get drunk to let off some steam
But I'd transform into a vomit machine
Ooh, the shame, remorse, and pain
Reflecting on my stupid games
I thought it might be funny to spit in your face
But now everybody's looking at me like I'm a disgrace
A disgrace, disgrace
A disgrace, a disgrace
A disgrace, a disgrace
A disgrace, a disgrace
I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
I used to be a fun guy, but I'm not anymore
