Listen, LISTEN!
No, we don’t have guitars.
But that doesn’t mean we aren’t punk rock.
It's all about the attitude,
It's all about the message.
The message is: FUCK YOU!
Now don’t make us spit at you.
Don’t make us spit!
Don’t make us spit at you.
Don’t make us spit!
For god’s sake, don’t make us spit at you.
You wouldn’t like us when we’re slavering...
Punk isn’t dead it’s just;
taking some time out for itself;
listening to the best of pink floyd
and kind of forgetting what all the anger was about.
Some of these are bangers, y’know?
Some of these are bangers.
Some of these are actual motherfucking bangers,
and I can’t help but lift my lighter to the sky
when I hear that “wish you were here” one.
I’m not proud of it, but the slow lurch of it,
sometimes makes me cry.
You ever heard something sound more wooden
Than a guitar played badly by someone who can’t even tell the difference
Between a perfect fifth and a devil’s tritone?
You haven’t. Because there’s nothing.
NOTHING!
Nothing worse than someone who thinks they’re in the zone.
Scrunching their face up, making that wood “sing”, strings slicing up your skin.
Dropping the plectrum, you say you don’t need it anyway:
The failures give you fuel for more sloppily delivered songs.
More sloppily delivered songs!
More sloppily delivered songs!!!
Songs...
Songs?
I wouldn’t call them songs if I was profoundly deaf since birth.
And even then I could still feel the vibrations,
annoying me while I’m trying to make the best of my other senses.
Yeah, fuck guitars.
I am my own instrument…
