| Hey Kids!
|
| Hey Dad!
|
| What’da want to do today?
|
| We don’t know.
|
| Wanna go to the matinee?
|
| NO!
|
| Wanna go to the Amusement Park?
|
| NO!
|
| Wanna go to the punk rock show?
|
| Yeah! |
| Let’s go to the punk rock show!
|
| Lost in a sea of combat boots,
|
| Flush the bouncers with wasted youth
|
| When did punk rock become so safe?
|
| When did the scene become a joke?
|
| The kids who used to live for beer and speed
|
| Now want their fries and coke
|
| Cursing and flipping birds are not allowed,
|
| In fact let’s keep noise levels down
|
| Must separate the church and skate!
|
| Why don’t we put pads on the kids?
|
| Helmets, head gear and mouth pieces!
|
| Then we could pad the floor and walls,
|
| Put cameras inside bathroom stalls
|
| We make sure only nice bands play,
|
| Make every show a matinee
|
| Teach kids to be all they can be,
|
| And we could sing my country tis of thee
|
| Sweet land of liberty
|
| When did punk rock become so safe?
|
| I know it wasn’t Duane or Fletcher,
|
| Who put up the barricades
|
| Like a stake in the heart,
|
| Somehow we got driven apart
|
| I want conflict! |
| I want dissent!
|
| I want the scene to represent
|
| Our hatred of authority,
|
| Our fight against complacency
|
| Stop singing songs 'bout girls and love!
|
| You killed the owl! |
| You freed the dove!
|
| Confrontation and politics
|
| Replaced with harmonies and shticks
|
| When did punk rock become so tame?
|
| These fucking bands all sound the same
|
| We want our fights we want our thugs!
|
| We want our burns we want our drugs!
|
| Where is the violent apathy?!
|
| These fucking records are rated G!
|
| When did punk rock become so safe?! |
