We Know Everything (A Requiem for a Rock Band)

“We Know Everything (A Requiem for a Rock Band) is just what it says. It’s a requiem for a rock band. We all knew, and most of us were in, that greatest rock band that no one ever heard.

Those stories are full of sad clichés like the deal that went wrong, infighting, or the standard fight over money. A recent conversation with a good friends sort of inspired this song, particularly the line about the roll of misspent dimes.

We Know Everything (A Requiem for a Rock Band)

Fake accords and civil wrongs
Were piled upon our subtle songs
A roll of dimes apiece we hold
To punch each other in our souls

All the pages left unturned
Wait for children to get burned


We know everything
Will be okay


All the birds we meant to slay
Were on the road and in the hay
Tear apart those crooked rhymes
For a roll of misspent dimes


We know everything
Will be okay
We know everything
