Nu-tra Speaks (new Traditionalist Man) Lyrics - Devo

Greetings beautiful mutants 

And how may we be of service? 

This is Nu-Tra for Devo incorporated 

Checking in with the many factions 

Of devolutionary humans 

Who have waited so faithfully this past year 

While Devo gathered its strength 

For the next offensive 

As many of you can see 

The road ahead is filled with danger 

It's not nuclear bombs we must fear 

But the human mind itself 

Or lack of it on this planet 

It's time to go beyond the normal thing 

It's time to do the super thing 

It's time for Devo

Your Favorite 'Game of Thrones' Characters Get Reimagined as Album Art 

There is no question about it 

The spud boys are ready with 

New songs, new films and new approaches 

To survival, in a world filled with subhumans 

Lies, lies, lies 

That's all we get 

From those who pretend to know but don't 

But once again Devo attempts 

To cut through the mental grease and grime 

With techniques of positive mutation 

Designed to protect you 

From the ninnies and the twits 

Remember, no one knows 

So let's find out, Devo asks the questions 

That help point us all in the right direction 

To go forward, move ahead 

Photos 

And give the past the slip 

It's time to seek out new traditions 

We know where the old one's took us 

And now we are all here together 

So let's go take in the full measure 

Of Devo's new traditionalist spirit 

The vinyl record and cassette tape 

Of Devo's latest musical outpourings 

Is entitled simply 'New traditionalists' 

To purchase, it is not like spending money 

But rather, it is an investment in the future 

In a blow against the empire 

This is Nu-Tra for Devo incorporated saying 

'Bombs away'
