Nothing Terribly New
Eternal Deception: The Hellacopters' Revelatory Anthem
Lyrics
Got this feeling, the feeling ain't good
Expressing a negative feeling that is not favorable.
You said it'd go away I knew it never would
Acknowledging a persistent issue that won't resolve as promised.
I may not be clever I may not be wise
Admitting a lack of cleverness or wisdom.
But a deaf, dumb and blind man would see through the lies
Suggesting that even someone with significant limitations can see through deceit.
They say hang on tight, the future brings hope
Highlighting the common advice to hold on for a better future.
But we're all hanging at the very same end of the rope
Emphasizing a shared struggle or fate despite efforts to persevere.
They keep preaching the gospel, the do's and the don't's
Criticizing the preaching of rules and guidelines.
Man says he will but man you know he won't
Suggesting a lack of commitment or follow-through from individuals.
It's nothin' new, n.o.t.h.i.n. n.e.w.
Stating that the situation is nothing new.
It's getting us good like it always do
Observing that the negative situation is affecting everyone consistently.
It's nothin' new
Reiterating that the current state is not a novel occurrence.
Well I've heard all about it, just what they say
Acknowledging awareness of information without significant impact.
Nothing terribly new here to save the day
Indicating a lack of groundbreaking solutions to problems.
We can dream all we want but it's the nature of the beast
Recognizing the inherent nature of challenges that can't be changed.
Keep on casting stones and spread the disease
Warning against perpetuating negativity and spreading destructive influences.
We can worry 'bout the end but we've already seen it
Acknowledging awareness of impending problems that have been experienced.
We can say we're sorry but we'll never mean it
Expressing insincerity in apologies for past mistakes.
We can bury the hatchet and lower our guns
Suggesting a temporary resolution without addressing the root issues.
But when the war is over another has begun
Pointing out the cyclical nature of conflicts and wars.
It's nothin' new, n.o.t.h.i.n. n.e.w.
Reiterating that the situation is nothing new.
It's getting us good like it always do
Affirming the consistent impact of the negative situation.
It won't get any better, the changes are too few
Expressing skepticism that the situation will improve due to limited changes.
It's nothin' new
Reiterating that the current state is not a novel occurrence.
