Try This At Home
(专辑: Poetry Of The Deed - 2009)
Let's inherit the
earth, because no one else is taking it. Come on, do your worst, before the
moment's passed. In bedrooms across England, and all the
Western world, there's posters and there's magazines but the
music isn't ours. Because we write love songs in C, we do politics in G, we sing songs about our friends in E
minor. So tear down the
stars now and take up your guitars: come on folks and try this at home. Let's stop waiting around for someone to patronize us. Let's hammer out a
sound that speaks of where we've been. Forget about the
haircuts, the
stupid skinny jeans, the
stampedes and the
irony, the
media-fed scenes. Because we write love songs in C, we do politics in G, we sing songs about our friends in E
minor. So tear down the
stars now and take up your guitars: come on folks and try this at home. Because the
only thing that punk rock should ever really mean is not sitting round and waiting for the
lights to go green, and not thinking that you're better because you're stood up on a
stage. If you're oh so fucking different then who cares what you have to say? Because there's no such thing as rock stars, there's just people who play music, and some of them are just like us, and some of them are dicks. So quick, turn off your stereo, pick up that pen and paper, you could do much better than some half-arsed skinny English country singer. Because we write love songs in C, we do politics in G, we sing songs about our friends in E
minor. So tear down the
stars now and take up your guitars: and come on folks and try this at home.
