Stealing people's mail


We ain't going to the party
We ain't going to the game
We ain't going to the disco
Ain't gonna cruise down main

We're stealing people's mail
stealing people's mail
stealing people's mail
On a friday night

Drivin' in the mountains
Winding 'round and 'round
Rummage thru your mailboxes
Take your mail back to town

And we got license plates, wedding gifts, tax returns
Checks to politicians from real estate firms
Money, bills and cancelled checks
Pretty funny pictures of your kids

We're gonna steal your mail
On a Friday night
We're gonna steal your mail
By the pale moonlight

We got grocery sackful after grocery sackful
After grocery sackful after grocery sackful
After grocery sackful after grocery sackful
Of the private lives of you
Ha Ha

People say that we're crazy
We're sick and all alone
But when we read your letters
We're rolling on the floor

We got more license plates, wedding gifts, tax returns
Checks to politicians from real estate firms
Money, bills and cancelled checks
We cut relationships with your friends

We're gonna steal your mail
On a Friday night
We're gonna steal your mail
By the pale moonlight

We better not get caught
We'll be dumped in institutions
Where we'll be drugged and shocked
'Til we come out born-again Christians

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

I Dead Kennedys sono una band punk americana formatasi a San Francisco negli anni '70. Conosciuti per il loro stile musicale provocatorio e le liriche politichemente impegnate, hanno raggiunto un'enorme popolarità nell'underground musicale degli anni '80. Il loro album di debutto, *Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables* (1980), conteneva singoli iconici come «California Über Alles» e «Holiday in Cambodia», che li resero famosi a livello internazionale. Nel 1981 il singolo «Too Drunk to Fuck» raggiunse addirittura le classifiche britanniche. Nel 1985, l'album *Frankenchrist* suscitò controversie per la copertina ispirata ad un dipinto di H.R. Giger, accusando la band di distribuzione di materiale osceno ai minori. Il processo che ne seguì terminò con una giuria incapace di raggiungere un verdetto, ma le pressioni legali portarono alla dissoluzione del gruppo. I Dead Kennedys si sono riuniti parzialmente all'inizio degli anni 2000 e hanno ripreso a esibirsi dal 2001.
