Nick Lowe, "They Called It Rock."
The group cut the record
The record hit the charts
Someone in the newspaper said that it was art
Disco Casanovas had it heavy on their breath
The local teenybopper band was playing it to death
They called it rock
xxx
The boys are getting hot
They're jetting off to Rio and some other sunny spots
Some senorita said "The singer sounds terrific"
Their personal appearances are stopping the traffic
They called it rock
Hey long distance, it's a rock and roll romance
CBS are gonna pay a great big advance
Hey Atlantic, come on and take a chance
Arista say they love it but the kids can't dance to it
They cut another record
It never was a hit
'Cause someone in the newspaper said it was shit
The drummer is a bookie
The singer is a whore
The bass player's selling clothes he never would've wore
They called it rock

Bob Mould, "I Hate Alternative Rock"
Tired epileptic charade
Get on the plane and fly away
I knew you when
I knew you when
You had something to say
The Twentieth Century
Has not been particularly kind to me
So when asked to define
You feign the benign
And you decline to answer properly
You feel threatened now
There's other icons flying higher now
As you grab for the past
You know it won't last
There's no need to describe it
I hope someone else is driving you
I hope someone else intelligent
is driving you
Now the myth disintegrates
Nothing else is permanent
