The backlash has started, but we ain't f**ing laughing Take a look at how much has changed, there ain't much to smile about We've done four years of begging and a lot longer struggling Well ain't it about time, we took back what is ours Punk formed as a movement to set right what was wrong The opposing side said no, we're right, you're wrong They controlled our bands with money and they all s**ed off our sweat Well that's the f**ing lesson we never must forget The time moved on and rebellion just seemed to be a bore As one by one the leaders collapsed, the money bought the who*e Time and time again, we heard new promises were made But words was all it was, the action was delayed They tried to salvage something, but the mistake was already done With CBS and EMI backing what went on Those tears upon the stage, we heard they all came from the heart And if we all stood together, it would just be the start Well the start just never happened, as our hopes ran down the drain Now take a good look, you'll see its happening again The punk movement once strong, once offering real change Is searching fame and fortune, and that just ain't the f**ing way Punk is still our movement; we can put right what is wrong By learning to say no, we're right, you're wrong f** their f**ing future, it means oppression, war and hate It's time to turn the tables around and recreate the state
