Big In Japan 02:05
Are you who you wanna be? It doesn’t look that way to me You’re climbing ladders that are going nowhere You carry on but you’re unaware You’re making money but you’re spending it fast Can’t you see that it just won’t last? You study hard but you just don’t learn Head for a jet-set crash and burn There’s no hope for cunts like us It’s too late, we’ve missed the bus Still gotta prove you’re good enough? Well you can... when you’re big in Japan I just don’t know what you’re doing it for This isn’t nineteen-eighty-four And I guess you might be scared of death I know there’s not too many good years left Here comes the limo but it’s not for you Standing in the rain, standing in a queue Waiting in the land of the rising sun Here come the jesters one-by-one Chorus Let me know when you’re big in Japan I’m gonna be your biggest fan Let me know when you’re big in Japan I’m gonna be your number one fan

Frustration 01:48
Living in a migraine factory I can’t believe the things that you want from me Never listen to me, hear a word I say Your radio static never goes away Frustration... x4 My head is on fire and I’m pissing blood You drag me downtown, drag me through the mud And I don’t wanna hang with your useless friends Just kill me now, baby make it end Frustration... x4 I don’t need no more complications I don’t want exciting destinations I don’t want to hear your explanations I just need defenestration Frustration... x8

Iron Fist 01:52
Nazi baby you’re alright by me Never never never gonna set me free Let’s play concentration camp You can be the commandant Gimme gimme something I’ve never had Gimme gimme something I need so bad Gimme gimme something more than a kiss Gimme gimme gimme gimme this Nazi baby don’t kill me quick Let me linger, baby make me sick Work me ‘til I’m skin and bone You’re my Queen, I’m just a drone Chorus I don’t want romance And I don’t want your love I just want your iron fist In your velvet glove Down in the dirt where the demons breed I’ll get what I need...

New Dog 02:55
Crawling, baby, crawling on your hands and knees Crawling, baby, crawling, crawling back to me Pretty little baby, crawling in the dirt Pretty little baby, in a world of hurt I don’t think you understand The way things are for you Cut you right out of the plan I don’t need you now I’ve got a new dog x4 On your belly crawling, crawl on broken glass Crawling, baby, crawling, dragging your sorry ass Chorus Crawling, baby, crawling on your hands and knees Crawling, baby, crawling, crawling back to me Pretty little baby, crawling in the dirt Pretty little baby, in a world of hurt Chorus

about

Abject Failures Camrose, Alberta

Like a bolt out of the blue, The Abject Failures burst onto the unsuspecting Camrose music scene in the summer of 2017. Embracing the Punk sounds of the New Wave music style, this quartet of suburban rebels playfully thumb their collective noses at the fuddy-duddy “establishment” artists that comprise the bulk of the Rose City scene. ... more
