John Maus – Cop Killer

▻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lw1MrMHQ9o

... it occurred to me that the best lyric in popular music history is [Body Count’s] ’Cop Killer’, it gets at the essence of what it’s all about better than any other lyric has.

What is it about that particular phrase, that particular message, that is so powerful, do you think?

JM: It’s this whole idea, the politics of aesthetics or whatever, that any genuine work, right, is always a disruption of the police.

Cite Badiou dans le titre de son album et fait de la pop régressive. Mais que penser de « The Law » ?

j’sais pas, j’arrive pas à saisir les paroles de celle la, ça dit quoi ?

Don’t lie
When I’m asking for the truth you’ve got to say it
Don’t tell me when it hurts ’cause I won’t care
You got to pay the price for what you owe
Yeah, that’s the law, that’s the law

Stand up
And deliver my notes to the office down the hallway
When you’re ready go home and change and take a shower
You got to pay the price for working under code
Yeah, that’s the law, that’s the law
Yeah, that’s the law, that’s the law
That’s law

Don’t lie
When I’m asking for the truth you’ve got to say it
Don’t tell me when it hurts ’cause I won’t care
You got to pay the price

Je ne suis pas sûr de bien comprendre le sens de la chanson. Mais les paroles sont d’Ariel Pink cette fois-ci.
