what's the most decadent part of the Travis album, "stick it in the back, don't need an invitation" or "shit coming out of your mouth"?

nice work if you can get it

From a recent e-mail:

"At a cocktail party [Christopher] Hitchens told me with a straight face that the four most overrated things are champagne, lobster, anal sex and picnics."

Well the following song isn't as subtle (ha), but I think it's a far more intelligent song than anything Travis could do. It works as a grimy sexploitation rap, but doubles as a disgusted, cynical "I give up" to girls that devote their lives to utter sexual servility while thinking it's really liberating. By Necro, titled "Light My Fire".


"What constitutes you bein a prostitute,
You lickin' doodie chutes for lots of loot till you gotta puke?
Drinkin' up shots of fluid, even if you don't wanna do it
You'll be a true who-err once you get through the manure
A whole piece down your esophagus, what an accomplishment
Everyone should acknowledge it:
you're a pig that can swallow shit

We've got different opinions
You feel women should be christians
Sitting home knitting and watching children
I feel women should be stripping and sinning
Syringes in em' trippin' while thier pimp brainwashes them in a building
You OD'd now you're hooked up to an intravenous
It's a minor inconvenience,
from the hospital bed you'll suck penis
You're not exempt, from being a wench
As long as both of your lips are mint
You could be dead and I'll still pay my rent
You'll eat the doodie from a swollen bowel
A putrid long stinky piece
that's brown like Colin Powell"

That Colin Powell line still amazes me. Pure genius.

Okay, I just uploaded it to my page!

How do you think it measures up to the Massive Attack version?

a reggae-rock groove akin to The Police might've saved this song

this is a nice, comfortable place to be a woman. I feel like I could just say ANYTHING on this thread, and it would be greeted with unfeigned interest and responded to warmly. Nothing from my past arises to disturb me; I feel as unfettered by various insults and slurs I've received in the past as if I'd been baptised by the kindness of a new, revolutionary community.

Like he would fucking know. Christopher Hitchens probably smells worse than Lester Bangs so I can't imagine anyone being relaxed enough to fuck him up the ass properly, relaxation being U+K with that kind of thing.

Had Christopher Hitchens named five most overrated things, Kenan, surely Christopher Hitchens would have made the list.
