Recording Session(s)

Notes
This cover of the The Saints' song was done by the band Earth, featuring Kurt Cobain on vocals. The song has yet to surface, but the two other songs from that session, "Divine And Bright" and "A Bureaucratic Desire For Revenge ," are available on Earth releases.

(Thanks to DN member Rob Heron and fellow Earth aficionado Michael Gillham for obtaining this info from former Earth member Joe Preston.)

Lyrics
Original version, as performed by The Saints

You say that you got the answers
You heard them all on the telephone
And now you're telling everybody
A major coup in the business zone

We got new thoughts, new ideas it's all so groovy
It's just a shame that we all seen the same old movies

And now you think that you got a first in fashion
New uniforms we all look the same
A new vogue for the now generation
A new profit in the same old game

We got new thoughts, new ideas it's all so groovy
It's just a shame that we all seen the same old movies

And you think you can run and hide what you've done?
Don't you know no one cares after the first million?
Come on!

And now you think that you got a first in fashion
New uniforms we all look the same
A new vogue for the now generation
A new profit in the same old game

Come on! We got new thoughts, new ideas we're all so groovy
It's just a shame that we all seen the same old movies

So you think you can run & hide what you've done
don't you know no one cares after the first million
Come on!

It's a shame 'cause not everybody wants to look the same
And not everybody wants to think the same
And not everybody wants to act the same
And I say everybody don't wanna to be the same
