You Didn't Ask for This

We started a band because we were bored
 We wrote two songs and taught ourselves every chord
 But some of us still had to learn how to play an instrument
 We fell in love, we slept around
 (Some of us never got off the ground)
 We may not be heroes, but we got ourselves a microphone
 This is what we say to you, and we hope you sing along
 Fuck Trump, drink beer
 Start a riot, have no fear
 The world has gone to shit
 And nobody seems to care about it
 Drink more, not less
 Love your friends, and forget the rest
 Why are we such slaves to greed
 When John and Paul say it's love you need
 It's been two years, we had our fun
 It took that long to get my mom to come to a show
 (And only one of us has done cocaine
 Wait, what)
 We played board games, we made a mess
 (I asked the RA to play strip chess)
 We graduated and now all of us are moving away
 (To Tokyo, to Iowa, Cole's basement)
 This is what we sing for you
 And we hope you sing along
 Folk-punk, sleep late
 When you get to heaven just jump the gate
 Can't you see that we adore you
 When you sing so loud we can't ignore you
 Fuck Trump, drink beer
 Start a riot, have no fear
 The world has gone to shit
 And nobody seems to care about it
