about

As the name already suggests, this is a composition that aims to demonstrate a vision of how these last two years have been and how their events have affected the world and also the routine of the Scumbags. At the beginning, the song presents a sad and disappointed view of the situation, worried and hopeless, lamenting the impossibility of playing shows. But moving forward, the protagonist realizes the real problem of the situation and is disgusted with humanity, ending with the message that we must never forget 2020 and we need to learn from our mistakes. 2020 Doesn't Count evidences the band's maturity and begins to indicate new paths they are tracing, with a well unified and consistent production process bringing great optimism regarding the sound aesthetics of this release.

lyrics

We never thought that we’d be living like this,
And Never expected our problems to increase.
Well we're not even the most affected by this mess.
World’s end was not what we had in mind.

We wear our masks but we still feel like we are easy prey.
The best Hollywood apocalyptic movie cliché.
It’s unbelievable what a microscopic thing can do.
Idiots still say: “It’s just a flu.”

We just wanna go on tour
To get drunk and play our songs
Now we spend our days locked at home
We suffer from a disease
That seems to be worse than this
History of humankind.

2020 doesn’t count!
What a shitty year.
If I die at 70 now it’s 71
I want compensation from the universe
One more year to drink and forget about 2020

We brag about how we took over the world
But the lack of empathy will always be our demise
Repeating the same mistakes of 1918
expecting different outcomes.

We just wanna go on tour
To get drunk and play our songs
Now we spend our days locked at home
We suffer from a disease
That seems to be worse than this
History of humankind.

2020 doesn’t count!
What a shitty year.
If I die at 70 now it’s 71
I want compensation from the universe
One more year to drink and forget about 2020

Science is not opinion, you moron
Stop believing in conspiracy
theories it doesn’t help nobody
What a mess we made
Where do we go from here?
17, what a cursed number

Programmed thinking, it looks like 1984
I Never thought we'd reach dystopia this quick
Anti vaxers, flat earthers and Illuminati lizards
The decline of reason down the toilet.

We’re still waiting for our tour
To get drunk and play this song
So we all can feel it in our bones
The worst disease we’ll ever have
Is not in the air but in our brains
Ignorance and apathy.

21 is sucking too!
Fuck! It doesn’t end!
I think the universe owes me another one.
I want a conversation with the human race
Of 2 more years to never forget about 2020.

We’ll see about 22…
