Back in the day in the '80s when the
|
old bands would play (old school)
|
They managed O.K. They did fine
|
Although they never got paid (that's cool)
|
50 cent shows, no cars we walked
|
Both ways through the snow (up hill)
|
That's how it should go, but you're too busy
|
Counting your dough (each bill)
|
|
If you want to be punk, if you want to be cool
|
Don't forget the golden rule
|
Stay underground, you must stay poor
|
Don't grow up and don't ask for more
|
|
You live for the green, dead presidents
|
Are destroying our scene (money)
|
You know what I mean, you pay your rent
|
By selling the dream (for me)
|
No Individual Retirement Account
|
Forget you and your 401K (wall street)
|
I'm gonna stay as poor
|
As I am today (can't eat)
|
|
You can't be punk if you don't care that dollar signs are everywhere
|
It seems like everyone's on Victory
|
But I will give away all that's mine, and we won't make another dime
|
Money changes everything, you see
|
But I won't let it change me.
