Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine

Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine (frequently shortened to Carter USM) are an English indie rock band formed in 1988 by singer Jim "Jim Bob" Morrison and guitarist Les "Fruitbat" Carter. They made their name with a distinctive style of power pop, fusing samples, sequenced basses and drum machines with rock 'n' roll guitars and off-beat wordplay-loaded lyrics. They reached the height of their fame in 1992. Over the following years the band took on new members, topping out as a six-piece, but struggled to regain their earlier popularity. They initially split up in 1998 after releasing seven albums. more »

Go ahead you fucking racist
Pucker up and kiss the babies
Kiss 'em till they die of rabies
Get your tits out for the ladies

Summoned home from Barcelona
Another day, another donor
Two submissions or a coma
Gutterpressville, Arizona

Follow that ambulance
And when that ambulance stops
Take every photo opportunity
That knocks

Because you're popular
You're beautiful
The whole world knows your name
But suppose you gave a funeral 
And nobody came

Here's the church
Here's the steeple
Open the doors
Where's all the people?

Light up the sky 
With sub-standard fireworks
Release the pitbull doves of peace
I've changed my mind 
About the mindless violence
I'm happy doing porridge
With the knowledge that at least

You may be popular
You're beautiful
The whole world knows your name
But today you gave a funeral
And nobody came

Here's the church
Here's the steeple
Open the doors
Where's all the people?
