Retrofuturistic Nightmare

from Unimpressed by Glenn Robinson

/

about

This is the lamest story ever. "Retrofuturistuc Nightmare" was inspired by the album cover. The artwork is a piece by CSA Images and the file was called "Outer Space City". So it kind of went from there...

I like songs that are sometimes silly and catchy. This song may not be for everyone but it's more of an ode to bands like The Queers, Mr. T Experience and Screeching Weasel that have had a major influence on my songwriting.

Also, there is sweet theremin solo.

lyrics

LYRICS

A robotic teen is a killing machine
In an outer space city tonight
So I drew up plans using bottles and cans
To send my rocket ship up in flight

I'm gonna fly to Mars
In a stolen car
But nobody seems to care

When you're sleeping tight
I'll be taking flight
In my retrofuturistic nightmare

Some scientists found a computer chip
That was damaged by a laser beam
It held the secret to life, and everything felt right
Until I heard somebody scream

I'm flying back to Earth
In a stolen hearse
Before anyone's aware

When you're sleeping tight
I'll be taking flight
In my retrofuturistic nightmare
