Punk Life (Juicy)

It was all a dream
I used to read Thrasher Magazine
Punk bands blowin up on the rock scene
Hangin' pictures on my wall
Every Saturday Gilman Street taking over for baseball
I let my tape rock til my tape popped
Smokin cigarettes warmin' up in the parking lot
Way back whe I got my leather jacket back-with the tat to match
Remember Rappin' Duke Da-ha Da-ha?
Ya never thought punk rock would make it this far
Cause now I'm in my own band with my own fans
Time to get paid, get us up on a bigger stage

And if you don't know, now you know
You know very well who you are
Don't let them hold you down, reach for the stars

I went from nothing but a stupid kid,
To starting a punk band with my friend Nick
Playin' shows, with mad ho's, tippy-toes,
puttin' pins up in all our clothes
and then I think back on those times
when everthing was alright
I think back on those times
When all I knew was punk life

Super Nintendo Sega Genesis
I remember when Punk was about bein' pissed
We're not fine, not kind, in this nation of hate crime
It's time to decide to be friends or to die

Knock Down

Must admit I'm overwhelmed, I'm always down
Too much sleep I'm still exhausted, the TV's busted
Hear me cry, tell you I'm fine
Hear me cry, that it's just something in my eye
I found out what it means to get knocked down
Did it put me in my place?
Do I deserve this life I made?
Sometimes I feel like never waking up
But today I'm gonna take it standing up.
Wake to face another day
The plans I'll make, the plans I'll break
Must admit I feel like shit
The rain blows in
The cold won't quit

Think Out Loud

Action is hot
I wanna get burned if I can make enough
Put up a fight
The more I see my clothes torn
The more that I like
Scream out my voice
My thoughts make the most sense when they're making some noise
Follow me now
If you like what I'm saying then you say it yourself

I am one
With you it's two
With him and her it's four
And when we get some more
We're saving all the world

Invisible, Impossible
Eliminate the meaning of these words
Because I'm taking to the floor
I don't buy all the lies you have for sale
