Beck Hansen (born Bek David Campbell, July 8, 1970) is an American musician, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. Beck's music is known for its pop-junk culture collage of musical styles, ironic lyrics, samples, drum machines, live instrumentation and heady sound effects.
Beck was born in Los Angeles, California, to David Campbell (a musician and son of a Presbyterian minister) and Bibbe Hansen (a former dancer for The Velvet Underground, founding member of the satirical band Black Fag, and visual artist).

Verse BbG# Some days we get a thrill in our brains FG#Bb Some days it turns into malaise G# You see your face in the veneer FG#Bb Reflected on the surface of fear G# Because you know we're better than that FG#Bb But some days we're worse than you can imagine G# And how am I supposed to live with that FG#Bb With all these train wrecks coming at random
Chorus F# Hey what are you gonna do G#Bb When those walls are falling down G#FG#Bb Falling down on you
F# Hey what are you gonna do G#Bb When those walls are falling down G#FG#Bb Falling down on you
Verse G# You got warheads stacked in the kitchen FG#Bb You treat distraction like it's a religion G# With a rattlesnake step in your rhythm FG#Bb We do the best with the souls we've been given G# Because you know we're nothing special to them FG#Bb We're going some place they've already been G# Trying to make sense of what they call wisdom FG#Bb And this riff raff ain't laughing with them
Chorus F# Hey what are you gonna do. G#Bb When those walls are falling down G#FG#Bb Falling down on you
F# Hey what are you gonna do. G#Bb When those walls are falling down G#FG#Bb Falling down on you
Verse G# You're wearing all of the years on your face FG#Bb Turn a tombstone you roll into place G# And your heart only beats in a murmur FG#Bb But your words ring out just like murder
