"Tonight the city is full of morgues, and all the toilets are overflowing. There's shopping malls coming out of the walls, as we walk out among the manure. That's why I pay no mind"

About this Quote

This quote by Beck paints a vibrant picture of a chaotic and disordered city. The imagery of morgues and overruning toilets suggests a location of death and decay, while the reference of shopping center coming out of the walls implies a sense of over-commercialization and consumerism. The expression "leave among the manure" even more highlights the concept of a city in chaos, with the manure representing the dirt and dirt that has actually collected in the streets. The quote eventually conveys a feeling of hopelessness and anguish, and Beck's reaction to this is to "pay no mind", suggesting that he has become desensitized to the chaos and has actually accepted it as a part of life.
