VideoX - Nice Guy

  


  Another band that are new to me today. VideoX (https://www.facebook.com/VideoXBand) are from Warwickshire/Birmingham and don't look to have been around for too long. They released a recording room demo track in Feb 2022 on Bandcamp. Now there's a new 5 track ep, it's titled Don't Listen and it's available here :  https://videoxband.bandcamp.com/album/dont-listen

  It's 5 tracks of 3 minute or under punk rock and it rattles along in a brisk fashion. The songs are about mind numbing tedium, liars, forced oppression & breaking free to be yourself.

  And there's this one about Jurassic man, it's called Nice Guy...

You think your god's gift, but I beg to differ Think you're smart, not even a flicker You're poison, and you make me sick Bet you're only the size of my lipstick You're hard work, full of fucking bullshit Alpha male club honorary membership You think you're suave and you think you're slick Nobody asked for your fucking dick pic You're a relic, out of the Jurassic Old dog never learning new tricks You're too close, you better back up quick I'm tired of your macho shit You're a cause for concern You're not a nice guy You've got a lot to learn You're not a nice guy A lot of respect to earn You're not a nice guy You bench press cos you try to impress But what's in your head is what you need to assess We're pushing for change, but you seem to regress You're a nice guy - self professed Is your hand on my leg do you want to lose it? Don't you ever touch me if I didn't approve it Swinging dick and a crushing grip You offer just the tip, cos you're toxic Cos you're a relic, out of the Jurassic Old dog never learning new tricks You're too close, you better back up quick I'm sick of all the macho shit You're a cause for concern You're not a nice guy You've got a lot to learn You're not a nice guy A lot of respect to earn You're not a nice guy
