A little older than the other songs, a song about some “friends” I used to have. I think when they hear it, they’ll know exactly who I’m talking about. I tried to write a song to express my frustration about narrow-minded people in the music business.
I recorded this as a demo, with a cajon and acoustic guitar (sounds kind of Spanish, don’t you think?), but I liked it this way because it kind of clashes with the title and the subject of the lyrics.
lyrics
So there you are with all your friends right by your side
Just as long as you support their shitty bands and dress right
Oh you feel so strong
Not even worth this song
Hardcore kids and punkrock boys
It's your lucky day, I'm stuck in a day
Hardcore kids and punkrock boys
Go annoy someone else
Or take it out on yourself
Don't you think you are supposed to have an open mind
Or does looking down on those emo kids make you feel warm inside
You're so brave online
You're so cold inside
Hardcore kids and punkrock boys
Do you know what sounds so sweet? That is called a melody
Hardcore kids and punkrock boys
Get a job and find a house
Go make your mommy proud
Oh loser, loser, loser
Lose the attitude
Hardcore kids and punkrock boys
It's your lucky day, I'm stuck in a day
Hardcore kids and punkrock boys
I guess this is it but you'll never give a shit
