Ariel Pink - Artifact Lyrics
I am the sun of the future
25 years from now, I think
try recalling the Golden Age
when we heard these words for the first time
Please come back to the exact spot we're at
Never forget the Golden Age
Doncha hear that this song is forever
Never forget the Golden Age
Notice it didn't remain as remembered
Never forget the Golden Age
A quarter century from now
Never forget the Golden Age
It never used to make you sad
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact of that
If this is you, 25 years accrued
Disregard the following's for the old you
who hasn't heard this before
"Son I gotta tell ya bout the future see
It's a living hell, it's not at all like the golden age
They're gonna kill your comforts with worries
Pertaining to your health, Pertaining to your future
Pertaining to ya mama"
Never forget the golden age
A man of wealth you saw yourself someday
never forget the golden age - where is the soldier
he used to be so brave he left a martyr and
came back a slave
Neither teachers nor dads
could see the world that they brought ya to was bad
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact, artifact of that
When the terrorists
spread the plague through
computer screens and we die
And they erase what was
left of the west
Just a shopping mall
In 25 minutes I want
you to come back
and recall the first time
In 25 minutes
The world's gonna crack
It's all gonna crack!
Remember this tune made you laugh
but these days a laugh's merely artifact
Artifact of that
It never used to make you sad
but now you lost what you never knew you had
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact of that

Ariel Pink Artifact Comments
Damn, I wish Ariel was a cool person.
this song is so cozy, it reminds me of lo-fi post punk like swell maps also
When the terrorists spread the plague through computer screens and we dieeee - one day this will happen
I can’t stand this douche but I love this song
yea i wish he wasn't such a dick outside of his music bc his musical aesthetic is great
One of the best songs he’s ever made.
one of my all-time fav songs, soul thirst quenching, ariel pink 4ever!
fucking amazing song
i read about hauntology for the first time and i was reminded of this song
ian connor
Thank you.
I was wondering if anyone new if John Maus performed on this album?
+GlassStreets I dont believe so but I know that in Loverboy he is definitely in it!
Thanks, just at certain points on Artifact it sounds a hell of a lot like Songs era John Maus.
Do you know what that's from? I've always loved that as an intro

We definitely did. 1998-2005(?) was a magical time, I just hope he releases some old tracks again. The lo-fi charm was what made me fall in love with his music.
jergenx he is doing remasters of his older albums, plus a new album Oddities Sodomies Vol. 2 this year, so you’re in luck
Worn Copy is the best rock n roll album since Scary Monsters
Love this record, but The Doldrums will forever be my favorite
how much does it f''nn suck that people can't switch on and buy some records..??
instead he has to go out on the road to keep his thing going..
playing music that ain't meant to be played live by a band,,
as much as he/they keep doing good work..
i feel we have lost this kid from doing his thing..
making music without interference from the outside world..
he's gotten better at the live thing I'm sure
The live shit is the best!..
Remove the rock! Open the sepulchre!
Sample from Exuma II song 'Paul Simon Nontooth'!
I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG AND APHG!!
i am the son of the future!
...25 years from nOW
