Those Dumb Punk Kids (Will Buy Anything)

7 views

Lyrics

Punk's been dumbed down
 To just another form of TV
 Marketed to shoppers
 Spoonfed carton rebellion like sheep
 Flock to worship any old school band
 Who cares if they still care or if they're bad
 Something new in town
 Who wants to know?
 And look at all the whores
 Reunions for wrong reasons
 Playing only songs from the good old days
 About how bad the good old days were
 So why not us? We don't even like this stuff no more
 But look at all that retro-racket cash
 Those dumb punk kids will buy anything
 We'll sue the guy who wrote the songs
 So we can sell them into commercials
 Steal the name and hit the road
 Trashing all our band stood for
 We won't rehearse, sound worse
 Dig up some old child star
 Who never learns the words
 Hey, we're back
 Show us how much you care
 The merch booth's right over there
 Buy! BUY!!!
 And if our scam works
 What a bandwagon it will be
 Malcolm in the Middle in the Misfits
 or Mary Kate and Ashley
 Gary Coleman in Black Flag
 Courtney in Nirvana at last
 And Emmanuel Lewis
 Back in action singing for the Germs
 When will it end?
 When people see this for what it is
 Rock and Roll Swindle Pistols backed a thief
 So how bout Kenny Boy Lay
 In Dead Kennedys
 Kuz those dumb punk kids
 Will buy anything
