Josh Joplin Group

Josh Joplin Group was an American Georgia-based folk rock band led by singer-songwriter Josh Joplin. Joplin brought the group its trademark combination of introspective lyrics, catchy melodies, and lead vocals that, to many, sound identical to those of R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe (to the point that one Joplin song, "Happy at Last," begins, "I sound like Michael Stipe and I dream like Carl Jung"). more »

Stop wasting your words 
Convincing yourself that no one hurts

Time killed the rebel that could not change with time 
And fashion placed a flower at the image in our mind 
Of the switchblade saint surrounded 
Carving out his prose 
And mumbling what he knows 

[Chorus:]
Siddharthas of suburbia
Stop wasting your words 
Convincing yourself that no one hurts 
And dance away your death 
And don't be alarmed there's nothing left 
It's all right

The archetype of rock-n-roll is dying in his bed 
While the debutantes deny it and set their clocks ahead 
'Cause every night is New Years and everyday is dull 
Long live rock-n-roll 

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
They used to say the world was flat 
If you went too far, you'd fall 
Just beyond the cul-de-sac
The houses and the mall, it's beautiful 

The future is a stereo that eats your favorite tapes 
The soundtrack to your youth that cannot be replaced 
So hold on to every song before they disappear 
Your future almost here

Siddharthas of Suburbia
Stop wasting your words 
Convincing yourself that no one hurts 
And dance away your death 
And don't be alarmed there's nothing left 
It's all right
Just hold on tight
Just hold on tight
