“Custom Concern” is the third song on Modest Mouse’s first full-length album, This is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About. The album was re-issued in November 2014 by Glacial Pace.
In his review of the re-issue, Pitchfork writer Brian Howe describes the recurring themes in Brock’s...
[Verse 1]
The custom concern for the people
Build up the monuments and steeples to wear out our eyes
[Verse 2]
I get up just about noon
My head sends a message for me to reach for my shoes and then walk
Gotta go to work, gotta go to work, gotta have a job
[Verse 3]
Goes through the parking lot fields
Didn't see no signs that they would yield and then thought
This'll never end, this'll never end, this'll never stop
[Verse 4]
Message read on the bathroom wall
Said, "I don't feel at all like I fall"
And we're losing all touch, losing all touch, building a desert
Custom Concern was written by Isaac Brock & Modest Mouse.
Custom Concern was produced by Seasick Steve.
Modest Mouse released Custom Concern on Tue Apr 16 1996.
