This is about toxic masculinity and crazy things kids get yelled at .Don't want a world where i have to man up.
lyrics
Come down/ behave/ sit down/ stay put/ shut up/ grow up/ be strong/man up repeat 4 x
man up x 16
I don’t know what i did to deserve you, i’m so ashamed of you
why can’t you do as you‘re told, I wish you’d never been born
shut up i’m sick of your shit, suck it up and toughen up
stop crying like a bleep sissy, make a man of yourself
Be brave/ be tough/ get along/ stop whining/ settle down/ don’t cry/ carry on/ man up repeat 4 x
be sensitive/ reprogram/ be creative/ don’t belong/ be vulnerable/ loose control/ be a pacifist/ don’t perform/ be cerebral/ misbehave/ kill your ego/ don’t conform
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days.
Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago. modestwriggles
