The closing track from 2017’s Hell Yeah, KMFDM’s 20th album ends with a backmasked message, a callback to their classic and iconic “Sucks”.
KMFDM forward, the ultimate sound / And a message from Satan when you turn it around!
Look out the window
Watch it on TV
Everyone, everywhere
Wants celebrity
Blown up in style
A social media star
Selfish, snaring, in your face
With a million dollar smile
Complacent and fat
Bared and blind
Comfortably stunned
Absolutely reliant
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
A cocktail of blitz
Mixed with fear
Keep them pacified
Let them eat cake
Procreate
And die
History on repeat
Warned over time
Pestilence and plague
Square up the headlines
Bigger, better, faster, more
United and fraudulent
Divvying up the spoils of war
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Keep the dumb assholes
Coming back for more
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Get 'em good and high
Well-trained and tame
Lasso around their mind
In a picturesque place
Where the blind lead the blind
Authority's injustice
Unraveling like twine
Photograph prejudice
Abuse and hate crime
Fast room, fast lane
Out of your way
Gorgeously grotesque
Feeding on fame
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
A cocktail of blitz
Mixed with fear
Keep them pacified
Let them eat cake
Procreate
And die
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore (Repeat!)
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore (Repeat!)
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Get 'em good and high!
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore (Repeat!)
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore (Repeat!)
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore (Repeat!)
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore (Repeat!)
Glam, glitz, guts, and gore
