Terlalu pinter banyak yang manfaatin
Terlalu goblok gampang dibodohin
Terlalu dikekang bikin gue pusing
Terlalu bebas malah bisa sinting

Terlalu putih dibilang sok suci
Terlalu hitam dianggap penganut setan
Kebanyakan obsesi otak melayang
Gak punya mimpi jiwa yang hilang

Gue bingung Gue bingung
Gue bingung Gue bingung
Serba salah Serba salah
Pada berdiri mengangkang
Gue bingung Gue bingung
Gue bingung Gue bingung
Serba salah Serba salah
Pada berdiri mengangkang

Terlalu atas banyak yang ngejilatin
Terlalu bawah nggak keliat dicuekin
Terlalu berani banyak musuh yang nantangin
Terlalu takut dibilang banci dikerjain

Terlalu depan nanti kena peluru nyasar
Terlalu belakang bisa dianggap makar
Terlalu kiri nanti dibilang komunis
Terlalu kanan jadi dikenal kapitalis

Mengalah dianggap pasrah dan kalah
Melawan dianggap pahlawan kesiangan

Gue bingung Gue bingung
Gue bingung Gue bingung
Serba salah Serba salah
Pada berdiri mengangkang
Gue bingung Gue bingung
Gue bingung Gue bingung
Serba salah Serba salah
Pada berdiri mengangkang

Slank

Slank was formed in 1983 through a school band at a local high school in Slank Jakarta, Indonesia, which named CSC (Cikini Stone Complex). Their main founder, Bimo Setiawan (Bimbim) and their fellow bandmates often played a number of Rolling Stones songs at school. The band later changed its name and personnel to SLANK, with Bimbim on drums, Erwan on vocals, Bongky on guitars, Denny on bass and Kiki on guitars. The name SLANK itself was taken from their musical attitude, which was, and is still reckless, ignorant and play with undetailed groove (Slengean in Indonesian).

In the following years, numbers of personnel changes were made, with Pay on guitars, Kaka on vocals and Indra on keyboard, replacing the previous bandmates.

Although they started their journey in the music industry quite roughly, with numerous of rejected demos, SLANK emerged in 1991 with their “The Best Newcomer” award in BASF event. Successes did not always come for SLANK, when three of their personnel, Bongky, Indra and Pay chose to quit the band, and formed their own band (BIP). Following the resignation, Abdee, Ivan and Ridho joined the band, and since then, SLANK has never changed its personnel again.
