Dead Kennedys Picture
Dead Kennedysformed in in 1978 when vocalist Jello Biafra(né Eric Boucher) and bassist Klaus Flourideresponded to a magazine ad placed by guitarist East Bay Ray. The three joined with drummer Tedand formed one of the most successful hardcore punkbands of the 80s. The band played hard and fast punk that matched the raw energy of the West-coast scene with twists such as Ray's surf-guitar influences and Jello's nasal machine-gun vocals and political fervor. They released their first single, "California Über Alles", in 1979 and first album, Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables, in 1980 on Jello's own Alternative Tentacles record label. Fresh Fruitis considered a punk classic.

Buzzbomb Lyrics

Dead Kennedys

Buzzbomb buzzbomb
Macho-mobile
The roads my slave
Thats how I feel
I cruise alone
I cruise real far
I dont love you
I love my car
cross nevada
At 110
Highway 50
And theres nobody there
Sign says, next sign 30 miles
I work all week, each penny saved
Buys more escape from home
Id rather cruise around all day
Than save up for a move
Plow thru rest area san-o-lets
Splat! goes the lonely salesman
Wanking in the mens room
Buzzbomb buzzbomb
Tape up loud
Blue piss clinging to my windshield
Faster faster in my car
Buzzbomb is my pride and joy
King of the trailer court
Waiting for the perfect chick
Wholl love me for my car
I tell her why Im cool
She coos back just what I like
When I pretend shes near
Zip through ely
Where pat nixon was born
The cops round here sure looking bored
Flashing sirensstate patrol
Theyre scratching up my gorgeous paint job
Shooting out my tires
Aint no way to go to heaven
Buzzbomb cornered at the 7-11
