Carcass - I Told You So (corporate rock really does suck)

Lyrics

Please tell me how to think
Please tell me what to say
Please tell me what to do
Please tell me how I should behave

Please tell me what to sing
Please tell me what to play
Please tell me how to act
Please tell me the rules of your game

Please tell me who I should be
Please tell me what to do
Please tell me how to please
I really want to be like you

Really done it now, sold out
But to who, what, when, where and how,
Yeah, really done it now, sold out,
I've taken my cut
And corporate rock really sucks

Don't try and tell me how to think
Don't tell me what to say
Don't tell me what to do
Don't try and tell me how to behave

Don't tell me how to sing
Don't tell me how I should play
Don't tell me how to act
I don't want to play to your game

Don't tell me who I should be
Don't tell me what to do
Its myself I'm trying to please,
Don't anyone, least of all, you.

Really done it now, sold out
But to who, what, when, where and how
Yeah, really done it now, sold out
I've taken my cut

[lead]

Yeah, really done it now, sold out
But to who, what, when, where and how,
Yeah, really done it now, sold out
I've taken my cut

Yeah, really done it now, sold out,
But to who, what, when, where and how,
Yeah, really done it now, sold out
I've taken my cut
And corporate rock really does suck

 corporate rock really does suck in present

[ChargerBullet]

I always thought Carcass was a Corporate Rock band.

[malvern666]

I don't think they sold out, they just got tired of playing the way they used to. Anyways I love everything Carcass did.

[nagumo10001]

Unfortunately, Carcass sold out hard. Listen to their old shit, like Symphonies of Sickness. Then listen to the newer stuff. Meh. I miss the old Carcass. :(

[Darkschizotypal]

It's funny because this song sounds like a corporate rock song straight up and Carcass is one of the biggest sell out metal bands of our time.

@2413sfad they created melodeath.

[poserkillerVEVO]

fuck corporate rock especially shit like nickelback.

[2413sfad]

To all the haters: you're correct, this is not really death metal. it's "death n roll" or "rot n roll". I think the former term was coined for Entombed's classic album Wolverine Blues and the latter term was coined by Jeff Walker himself. It's straightforward pop/rock that happens to be played in a death metal style. For me, it's just as good as their old stuff.

@Noah58 i agree 100% concert hardcore and rock totally sucks. concert pop punk like crass and conflict is for poseurs

[mediattackrecords]

corporate Punk and Hardcore still sucks. so does corporate Pop and Rock.
