The Separation Of Church And Skate Hey Kids !
Hey Dad ! What do you wanna do today ?
I don't know !
Do you wanna go to the matinee ?
No ! Do you wanna go to the amusement park ?
No ! Do you wanna go to the punk rock show ?
Yeah ! Let's go to the punk rock show !
Lost in a sea of combat boots
Flush the bouncers with wasted youth
When did punk rock become so safe
When did the scene become a joke
The kids who used to live for beer and speed
Now want their fries and coke
Cursing and flipping birds are not allowed
In fact let's keep noise levels down
Must separate the church and skate
When don't we put pad on the kid
Helmets head gear and mouth pieces
Then we could pad the floor and walls
Put cameras inside bathroom stalls
We make sure only nice bands play
And we could sing my country
'Tis of thee sweet land of liberty
When did punk rock become so safe
I know it wasn't Duane or Fletcher
Who put up the barricades
Like a stake in the heart
Somehow we got driven apart
I want conflict I want dissent
I want the scene to represent
Our hatred of authority
Our fight against complacency
Stop singing songs about girls and love
You killed the owl you freed the dove
Confrontation and politics
Replaced with harmonies and shticks
When did punk rock become so tame
These fucking bands all sound the same
We want our fights we want our thugs
We want our burns we want our drugs
Where is the violent apathy
These fucking records are rated
When did punk rock become so safe
