“Yes, that is Michael Hutchence laying out the bleak truth care of his other ‘band’,  Max Q, which briefly co-existed with INXS but only briefly. One album, no tours. But The Way of the World found me anyway. Must’ve been the feel good lyrics. You are born into this world – Looking down the barrel of a gun – And those who hold the gun – Want you to work fast and die young – And if you don’t work – If you don’t obey – They’ll make you live in fear till your dying day.  And that’s just the first half of the first verse.” (Philip Random)
