Alon Eder - Power Power Power



There's quite a lot to unpack in this excellent song and clip but I don't think I'll fully understand it until I hear the rest of  "Casio Rage", Alon Eder's upcoming album featuring only Casio guitars and keyboards from the 80s mixed with revealing rage.

I don't take showers, I don't cut my hair
I don't shave, I don't get by
And from outside they're telling me to start behave
But I long ago left the lane you're driving on

I'm not looking to escape
I prefer to see
I'm not engaging in power struggles
Cut that nonsense
Power power power
Cut that nonsense
Everyone here is fucked up
I prefer to see

Let's make some money, we'll invest it wisely
BBQ on the balcony with a quarter view of the sea
On Monday yoga on Friday swimming at the pool
We'll pass the law for..., we'll get a blessing from the rabbi

Feeding each other with bullshit
Your basic situation isn't comfortable
Come up with another plan with goals, make another survey
Let's stop for a moment and see-it's just a lie

I'm not looking to escape
I prefer to see
I'm not engaging in power struggles
Cut that nonsense
Power power power
Cut that nonsense
Everyone here is fucked up
I prefer to see

Smiling and playing the game till the end
No matter how much you smile you're just an evolution of an ape
Invent some hipster start-up that will break the market
Your situation isn't cool and that's for sure.
