Camper Van Beethoven

Camper Van Beethoven is an American alternative rock group formed in Redlands, California in 1983 and later located in Santa Cruz and San Francisco. Their eclectic and ever-evolving style mixes elements of pop, ska, punk rock, folk, alternative country, and various types of world music. The band initially polarized audiences within the hardcore punk scene of California's Inland Empire before finding wider acceptance and, eventually, an international audience. Their strong iconoclasm and emphasis on Do It Yourself values proved influential to the burgeoning indie rock movement. more »

Gonna move to the city
Down and out
Gonna read a lot of William Burroughs
Down and out
Gonna practice being depressed

And I think I'll go to film school
Down and out
Live in a scummy part of town
Down and out
All my friends will think that they're junkies

And I don't know what it is I want, but I can get it
From my old man
And I don't know what it is I need, but I can get it

Gonna move to the city
Down and out
I'll join a rock-n-roll band
Down and out
Gonna dress and act like Lou Reed

And I think I'll go to film school
Down and out
Live in a scummy part of town
Down and out
Read a lot of William Burroughs and be depressed
