Placebo are an alternative rock band consisting of Brian Molko (vocals, guitar), Stefan Olsdal (bass) and Steve Hewitt (drums). The band was founded when former Luxembourg schoolmates, who never actually spoke to eachother, Brian Molkoand Stefan Olsdalmet by accident at South Kensington tube station in 1994. Molko invited Olsdal to one of his gigs and Olsdal was impressed by Molko's vocals so they agreed on forming a band. While briefly known as Ashtray Heart, the band quickly settled on the name Placebo, by the drug that doesn't actually work. The band could not decide on a drummer at first with Steve Hewitt (drums) and Robert Schultzberg alternating on the spot.

Placebo

Youre the one whos always choking trojans
Youre the one whos always whos been broken
Sleep may be the enemy
But so is another line
Its a remedy
You should take more time
Youre the one whos always choking trojans
Youre the one who showers always golden (? )
Spunk and bestiality well its an assisi lie
Its ahead of me, you should close your fly
I understand the fascination
The dream that comes alive at night
But if you dont change your situation
Then youll die, youll die, dont die, dont die
Please dont die
Youre the one whos always choking trojans
Youre the one whos always whos been broken
Drunk on immorality, valium and cherry wine
Coke and ecstasy, youre gonna blow your mind
I understand the fascination
Ive even been there once or twice more
But if you dont change your situation
Then youll die, youll die, dont die, dont die
Please dont die x4
