Punk Is Dead

歌詞

Punk is dead Yes that's right, punk is dead It's just another cheap product for the consumer's head Bubblegum rock on plastic transistors Schoolboy sedition backed by big time promoters CBS promoted the Clash but not for revolution, just for cash Punk became a fashion just like hippy used to be A And it ain't got a thing to do with your or me Movements are systems and systems kill Movements are expressions of the public will Punk became a movement cos they all felt lost but the leaders sold out and now we all pay the cost Punk narcissism was a social napalm The Sex pistols started doing real harm Preaching revolution, anarchy and change As they Sucked from the system that had given him his name Well I'm tired of staring through shit stained glass I'm tired of staring up a superstars ass I've got an ass and a heart and a name I'm just waiting for my fifteen minutes fame And me, yes, I, do I want to burn? Is there really something I can learn? Do I need a business man to promote my angle Can I resist the carrots that fame and fortune dangle I see the velvet zippies in their bondage gear The social elite with safety pins in their ear I watch and understand that it don't mean a thing The scorpions attack, but the systems stole the sting PUNK IS DEAD. PUNK IS DEAD. PUNK IS DEAD
