Sonic Youthis an experimental rockgroup formed in New York City in 1981. They are generally seen as one of the leading innovators of contemporary rock music. In their early career Sonic Youth were associated with the no waveart and music scene in New York City, but have outlasted most associated bands. Initially inspired by the noise experimentationof Glenn Brancaand The Velvet Undergroundand the heavy garage rockof The Stooges, they are known for using a variety of unorthodox guitar tunings, and for applying screwdrivers, drumsticks or other preparations to guitars to alter the instruments timbre. Members of the band have released books of poetry and prose (a beatnik influence is evident in both their writing and lyrics), produced, written and performed in films (such as "1991: The Year Punk Broke", "Perfect Partner", "(this is known as) the blues scale" and "last days").

(God)
Jack around my yeah (? )
And hear every whisper
The words of the .... (? )
The words of laughter
The rise of the mayonaise
Go dressing your hairdress
Kissing the lovers
Kissing the bible
Hallowed be thy name
Now we have fathers
Screaming at mothers
Hallowed be thy name
Come all you sinners
Now I look worried
My little essay
To you during stories
Youre ready to go off
Is there any waiter
Kissing the lovers
Kissing the bible
Hallowed be thy name
Now we have fathers
Screaming at mothers
Hallowed be thy name
Sons and their daughters
Are taking your money
The queens are a bad dream
But now theyre not funny
The psychos are walking
Away with you sonny
Kissing the lovers
Kissing the bible
Hallowed be thy name
Yelling at fathers
Screaming at mothers
Hallowed be thy name
