Текст песни No Vanguard Revival - Live - Bodega

If the members of the groups whose spirit you summon
Appeared in this room right now all the sudden...
Would they sign off on how you studied their time?
How you subtly refined their vocab and mind?
Or would they say 'Look here - what have we spawned?
It's a culture of pawns
It's a lake full of small ponds'

While we were doing Velvets
They were doing Dada
They turned on a sonnet
And ripped it back on it
While we were doing Pink Flag ecstatic at half mast
Still doing Velvets
Still doing Elvis

And there's no vanguard revival
No vanguard revival
No vanguard revival
False concept'
The vanguard never was
A false concept

Classical is modern
Returning is modern
If there's no vanguard revival
Then the vanguard never was
