Sons of Apollo

Taken from "Half Smiles Of The Decomposed" 2004

"And just when it appears there's going to be a successful campaign against smut
Just when the Supreme Court seems to be ruling against pornographers
When it appears the nation is returning to old fashioned moral standards
Suddenly the floodgates are going to swing open
And Satan is going to vomit filth out of hell
And it'll be just as it was in the days of Lot
And will vex the souls of God's most devote devout saints

The archers have grown
Bending on back
To the new accuracy
Shoot for white hearts
Ugly supreme
Beating their flags with hiss
Coming of age
To the new day of running

The archers have grown
Bending on back
To the new accuracy
Shoot for white hearts
Ugly supreme
Beating their flags with hiss
Coming of age
To the new day of running
To the new day of running
To the new day of running
To the new day of running

I go free today
I go free today
I go free today
I go free today"

From the final Guided By Voices album "Half Smiles Of The Decomposed" an epic Who like song. I must admit I really do like this song and love the spoken introduction that reminds me a lot of R.E.M. during "Green" period. The megaphone section sounds just like the bit from "Orange Crush" when Bob sounds like a preachers discussing the Moral of the country. The song ends with an acousitc singalong from another song. Good stuff.
