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 »

This is our future and it starts with a C
It stands for care in the community
And I've got you to care for me
So I can care for you

The north and south are divided no more
So you and I can be equally poor
And all the things I love you for
Won't pay for food and gas

And flattery will get you nowhere fast

What we need is a roof overhead
And old settee and a room with a bed
And old TV to feed your head
With news and films and soap

Maybe then we can try for a child
The news at 10 with a beautiful smile
A boy or girl to save the world
With peace and love for you

And peace and love
Will get you nowhere too
And I know that it won't be you
And you know it won't be me

This is the future and it starts with a C
It stands for care in the community
And I've got you to care for me
So I can care for you

The north and south are divided no more
So you and I can be equally poor
And all the things that I adore
Won't pay for food and gas

And flattery will get you nowhere fast
