No We Won't Keep It Down
We Won't Be Quiet No!
Noise police are coming please keep it down
they’re gonna kick your asses outta this town
they’re gonna call the cops
(it's our weekend too )
so throw the door open and yell fuck you
"Hope you understand our point of view,
it's way too loud, you're ruining our barbeque.
We'll take it to the city if you don't keep it down.
We are the noise police, we earned our silly frowns.
every Saturday you practice- for hours and hours
it's very intrusive, we’ll cut the power.
Matlock is on and its up full blast
we do not enjoy it so turn it down fast!"
we saw you in your yard
while you were mowing your lawn
and invited you over
to sing our song
you showed up early with burgers and beer
and joined in the fun
gave us a cheer
i said
yes we will turn it up we'll all have fun now

Punk Rock Died That Day
04:05
|
|||
When the wig fell off it was over.
Green and blue hair flew past my shoulder.
Punk rock died that day.
Rebellion turned away.
It looked so real:
it got me hook, line and sinker.
Punk rock died that day.
I just stood there, staring blankly
at the fakeness of it all.
Summer fading into fall.
The stupid, happy innocence that we shared was gone forever
As she picked up the wig off the beer and spit splattered floor,
no one seemed to care.
The corporate sponsorship
that had begun to slip
gained the momentum it had lacked.
We walked away with nothing to say.
Cold and frozen in our apathy.

Question Authority
02:24
|
|||
self righteous egotists don’t impress me
i’d rather have my own opinion
than to buy into somebody else’s
trying to shove their truth down my throat
so i will speak on their behalf
it only makes me laugh
i’m not a hero
i’m not your messiah
i'm just trying to tell you
the truth i've come to believe
question authority
those with the power that try to tell you
what you can and cannot do fuck you!!
i will stand up for what i believe in
and i will fight them to the end
and i will never pretend

Cookies and Milk
02:00
|
|||
hush now my son
and don't make a peep
this may be the last time we speak
the bombs are dropping over our heads
we may all wind up dead
don't you worry as the lights go out
i'll hold you close as it all falls down
just remember this life as a dream
try to black out all of the screams
mommy's making cookies for us all
watching as all the pretty butterflies fall
the end is coming, never you fear
the other side shimmers so clear
hush now my boy and go to sleep
this life is over, you don't have to weep
watch the lights flash, before our eyes
stifling all life as it dies

Suzy's Got A Shotgun
02:37

suzys got a shotgun
she's not the type of girl who runs
away from anyone
she brought it to a knife fight
someone's gonna lose their life tonight
that'll teach that bitch to gossip
she don't know the shit she started
suzy's gonna make her wish that
she hadn't talked that shit in gym class
someone's gonna lose their life tonight
that girl don't even know her
and her boyfriend's a loser
shes gonna get a serenade
from suzy's fucking twelve gauge
someone's gonna lose their life tonight
don't tell her how to feel
don't tell her when to smile
she's gonna kick your ass if you try that
around the block for another mile
someone's gonna lose their life tonight
suzy's got a shotgun

Murder Song
02:51
|
|||
i've been watching you
for awhile now
i know where you live
i drive by your house
see you at the grocery store
shopping for the food you eat
i know i can give you more
and make your life complete
rip your toenails off your feet
you're my sweetest treat
put your blood in little jars, keep one of them in my car
stock my freezer with your hair
i think its only fair
that i take you down, down into my lair
i'll take your picture
rub it on my body
upload to instagram
like everybody
that's what i'm gonna do
after i murder you
don't mind the other ones, they're not as cute as you
i've sewn their mouths shut, so they can't lie (it's true)
wait til you see what i've got in here
you'll never want to leave, not that i'd let you dear
sit down in my mommy's chair
let me brush your pretty hair
take out my razor, so i can shave you there
i think you're ready now
let me show you how

Ice Cream
02:16
|
|||
the ice cream truck is coming round
ask your mom for money and lets go down
to the corner to get a cone
ah brainfreeze! getting in my dome
put it in your face
while it’s dripping on your cat
dad’s asking you for change
but you’re a real brat
it’s dripping on your shoes
attracting all the ants
you made your own fudgesicle
gotta change your pants
no matter what you get
you can't go wrong
forget all your worries
when you hear that sacred song
in the ice cream kingdom
there can be only one
control of all the ice cream
is control of all the fun

Blame L.A.
02:24
|
|||
got lost somewhere along the way
i lost it all now i got no place to stay
she took her love and ran away
i blame it all on l.a.
i woke up drunk again today
and i don't have no one else to blame
the story is always the same, welcome to sunny warm l.a.
i blame it all on l.a.
i blame it all on l.a.
i blame it all on l.a.
this moral decay
i blame it all on l.a.
for everyone who will break through
there are thousands that
die or get depressed
od and choke on the excess
i blame it all on l.a.
pretentious narcissists pervade
their selfish angles on their way
to their botox injection-ing
guess i should pack it up or stay
i could just learn to be okay with this material parade
i blame it all on l.a.
it’s not this city’s fault
that satan calls it home
that millions come here seeking fame and fortune
to die alone
when the earthquake reclaims it for hell
i'll be laughing to myself
i blame it all on la

I Wanna Be A Scumbag
04:37
|
|||
I don't want to be an old west cowboy
I don't want to wear the hat
I don't want to be a renaissance master
I don't want to sculpt aristocrats
I don't want to be an astronomer
I hate looking at the stars
I don't want to be a line haul driver
i don't want to go that far
I wanna be a scumbag
I wanna be a fucking scumbag
everyday and every night
I wanna be the biggest baddest scumbag
eat your dog and pick a fight
(that's right)
I don't want to be a cold heart breaker
I reject the thought of love
I don't want to be a new age guru
I don't want none of the above
I don't want to be a rockstar, baby
I don't want to do that, no, no
I don't want to make ten million dollars
Cause I'm a thrift store brat

Hostage Heart
02:29
|
|||
Lock my room
Let it out
I want to forget
Shut it down
Take a breath
Make it stop
Start again
If i can
This hole won't go away
We talked but it’s not the same
It hurts to say it
But I think it's time
I got my heart back
say goodbye
walk away
shut you out
nothing to say
you gave up
let me go
i moved out
drove back home
i think it's time
you gave my heart back
i think it's time
you gave my heart back
i think it's time
i got my heart back

Farewell Space Captain
02:40
|
|||
goodbye space captain
so long space pirate
farewell to the rebellion
blasted your way
Into our hearts
as you flew through the asteroid field
and saved us all
so cavalier and unfiltered as you
ran for your ship
farewell space captain
died as you live
we lost you
but will always remember
your heroic tales
and adventures
of faraway planets
and alien lifeforms
you taught us to be brave
and face our fears head on
you floated into space
as our innocence left us
you're gone
but not forgotten
your spirit lives on
farewell space captain
your ship will not return
