The Latin term “Era Vulgaris” actually translates to ‘Common Era’, instead of ‘Vulgar Era’ as one might guess. Josh Homme chose it because “It sounds like ‘the Vulgar Era’, which I like, because that sounds like something that I would like to be part of.”
The titular song was not included on the US...
[Verse 1]
I play a game until I'm dead, or on a magazine
I wanna look like I'm dead, dancin' on a string
I eat the food when it's there, I make a mess of things
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Get that look everywhere
But keep that look off my face
[Chorus]
Everybody else want to fall in love
There's no room for love in a modern sky
Living in the era vulgaris
Just drool in the dark as you stare at the lights
[Verse 2]
From a crumbling tower, I see everything
London, Tokyo, New York City
[Pre-Chorus 2]
There's no love, there's no love
There's no love any place
[Chorus]
Everybody else wanna fall in love
There's no room for love in a modern sky
Living in the era vulgaris
Just drool in the dark as you stare at the lights
[Bridge]
All we creatures helplessly attacking repetition
Over, over, left with who we are
Did you tell anyone?
Did you tell any place?
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Everybody else want to fall in love
There's no room for love in a modern sky
Living in the era vulgaris
Just drool in the dark as you stare at the lights
[Outro]
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Living in the era vulgaris
Just drool in the dark as you stare at the lights
(Just stare at the lights)
(Just stare at the lights)
(Just stare at the lights)
