The Breakdown

The Breakdown was a 1926 painting by Scottish artist John Bulloch Souter (1890–1972) which stirred controversy in the United Kingdom during the Jazz Age. The work depicted a black jazz musician playing the saxophone while a naked white woman dances, as if in a trance.Amid outrage in the British press, the painting was withdrawn from the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1926 after one week at the request of the British Colonial Office as the subject matter "was considered to be obnoxious to British subjects living abroad in daily contact with a coloured population".The painting was then destroyed by its author and his wife, but Souter preserved his preparatory drawings and made a reconstructed version in 1962, one decade before his death.

Following the herd
To a place
Of manufactured consequence
Where being first
Is no longer safe
Haven't you heard
You gave it all away
The intensity begins to build
Enticed by all the things you've heard
Now you give it all away
Too cowardly to disobey
Lights out, the fight, the flight
Lizard brain, to feed, to fear
Lights out, the fight, the flight
Lizard brain to fornicate
Don't let it take control
Are we in control
Have we lost our faculties
Our minds lost to ignominy
Partition ourselves away
Gullible, in disarray
Lights out, the fight, the flight
Lizard brain, to feed, to fear
Lights out, the fight, the flight
Lizard brain to fornicate
Don't let it take control
Are we in control
Don't let it take control
Are we in control
Lights out, the fight, the flight
Lizard brain, to feed, to fear
Lights out, the fight, the flight
Lizard brain, to fornicate
