My friends use to show off their tatts Now they talk about filling their bank vault Mellow is the new fad Your life is fucked and it's all your fault
You use to be dangerous and fun Before you got that mortgage Killed by mediocrity, procrastination, blah blah Now you vote conservative
The people of influence and cynical and jaded What hope for new blood? Habitat destruction, fake terrorism We're all imploding under mass boredom
Sleeping generation can't embrace the shock There's nothing left to embrace I needed motivation You sent a postcard that said, "Punk Rock" Well fuck you too
This is a marketing ploy This is the new black It's a publicity stunt Relax kick back...
Tune in turn up recline practice being dead This is channel hell
I hope this sledge hammer reminds you who you are What the fuck happened?
Angry youth reduced to ultra-conservative nervous frightened children It was supposed to dangerous It was supposed to be risque Now it's cheap and mass produced Now it's in a bargain bin... on sale
You only see the filth when you look for it The scene sucks because you suck, you killed it You stood back and let it die
