[Lyric] April (Cassette Theory)

[intro]
We're involved in sort of a low-key war against apathy
I don't know doing on apathy over there but we've got a lot of it

[verse 1]
Winter has moved along with its fur coats
The freedom to smoke, the freedom to vote:
A demonstration of placards and postcards
And the sun in our backyards

[verse 2]
You're so far behind you think your're winning
As the first hot summer's day comes and passes
Just waiting for your childhood hero to rise from the ashes

[verse 3]
April has arrived in flying colours
Kids being born to live out the dreams of their fathers and mothers
It's all stained converse and vinyl records

[verse 4]
And it's one size fits all - but thе size is too small
As we're living in Charliе Brooker's nightmare scenario
The prophecy is told: now today is tomorrow
We spend our time watching daytime TV and reality shows
Which show no reality at all
[verse 5]
We're taken by our idols
But when my heroine lived off milk peppers and cocaine then who am I to judge?
What happened to Holly and The Crickets?
When everyday the radio sings white noise and digits

[verse 6]
Just lacking direction and lacking invention and all things in-between
As we watch the blank stares of the leader of our opposition
Lose his grip on the career
He worked ever so hard for

April
