DEVO - FRESH PARODY MUSIC VIDEO (NOSTALGIA)

You nostalgia, you lose.

Lyrics:
I'm not young anymore.
And old age is a bore.
I just want some cash fast.
So I'll leech off my past!

We're bringing all the old shit back,
'Cos all the new stuff sounds like crap.
Now buy a vinyl and 8-track,
And join me for a retro fap...

And if the haters do dispute
claiming that we're selling out.
We'll just say it's one big tribute
While our culture...

GETS WORSE!
History repeats!
MUCH WORSE!
Reality retreats
THAT WORSE!
Nothing's getting better!
IT'S WORSE!
So I'll be a childhood peddler!

IT'S WORSE making money off nostallllgiaaaaaaa,
MUCH WORSE, We're clearly all out of ideeeeeeeeeaaaaaas.

Support some tired hasbeens!
Play the same games on new machines!
Relive great films that you've seen!
Like Schindler's List, NOW IN 3D!

Go back to when you were less surly,
Buy this memorabilia
There's no shame in being thirty
And still staying pika-pikaaaaaaa

All this junk is really timeless
Pleasing all our demographs!
From mid to quarter life crisis
Meanwhile our culture...




GETS WORSE!
Fanboys will unite!
MUCH WORSE!
Unless you're Edgar Wright!
THAT WORSE!
The furries are ecstatic.
IT'S WORSE!
IT'S THERMODYNAMICS!

WE'RE WORSE!
The hipsters put us there!
MUCH WORSE!
Inside a postmodern nightmare.
THAT WORSE!
We're so desperate for new art...
IT'S WORSE
We put this fruitcake on the charts!

IT'S WORSE i'll put myself into deeeeeebbbbbbt,
MUCH WORSE Buying a car city caaaaaaarpeeeeeeet.
IT'S WORSE Quality new work gets snuuuuuuuubbbbbed,
MUCH WORSE. No one wants to grow the fuck uuuuuuuuuuup!

IT'S WORSE!

Knowing how much work you put into this parody, I'm just amazed this only has a little over 12,000 views. It should have at least 100,000 I'm a Devo fan and didn't take offense to this, haha.

Pretty lame. The audio is really, really poorly recorded and sung. And they writers missed the point that DEVO is already satirizing and parodying itself through videos and communiques. (Though their album has been critically acclaimed.) The Devo boys have seen de-evolution in action, and they've returned angrier and nerdier than ever. That's what makes "Something For Everybody" terrific - it's catchy and mean-spirited like the best Devo songs always have been.
