Yes really on the death of art and the death of science ? And another good song is ;

I Fought the Law, 1960 The Crickets (by Sonny Curtis)

Below is one of the lyrics of several recorded versions,

I needed money 'cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
Now breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I lost my baby and it feels so bad
I guess my race is run
She was the best girl I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I needed money 'cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my girl and the good fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I lost my baby and it feels so bad
I guess my race is run
She was the best girl I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
