Lyrics:

Recovering slowly, a torso fell

From a beat up truck by a rural motel.

The manager seen how the truck bed bounced

While dust flew up with a rolling sound.

Voices appear from the staff outside

In bulbous text in a western style

His mannequin neck spun to turn his face

The bars spills drunks out frame by frame

Girls pushed girls side to side

To hear a suction sound as limbs relign

The crowd just seemed to multiply

They hear his plastic jaw as the news drops hard:

"Your retro career melted"

They couldn't have agreed with the manniquin less

They didn't understand what the manniquin meant

The sound of a barrelled gun held to the back

Some plastic clicks as the shell parts pass.

Fleshtone shards fly by wild

They fill a plastic bag with the parts inside

The bag got dumped, a town nearby

They reassembled fast as his voice dropped hard:

"Your retro career melted"

Song of the Day 12-103 The Faint—Your Retro Career MeltedThey hear his plastic jaw as the news drops hard: The Faint will return this fall.the time between Faint shows is cold and lonely. they are incredible live.Ten years ago i saw Omaha's finest perform in from of an unappreciative crowd opening up for then it-band No Doubt. being one of the four people who dug them at the show i went out the next day and bought Danse Macbre at Tower Records.i can't tell you anything about No Doubt that night, but i can sure as hell tell you i got my money's worth out of this show. Your Retro Career Melted was a highlight for me as it drops hard. Also because Todd speaks the distorted lyrics through a megaphone into the mic which prefaces the drop.note: i over-dubbed the intro with Rob Zombie's 'Call of the Zombie' and rarely ever listen to the album version now as it sounds sparse.
