RANCID LYRICS - Spirit Of '87

RANCID LYRICS



"Spirit Of '87"






Saturday,

Where else you gunna go?

There's no way,

I'm gonna end up at the disco,

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll.



Saturday,

Where else you gunna go?

There's no way,

I'm gonna end up at the disco,

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll, to rock and roll, rock and roll.



[Tim:] There's a club on the coast, where the kids get lost, and no one's gonna stare,

Yeah, chuck T's and bleached jeans with dayglow mohawk hair,

Yeah, misfits and homeless kids all call their home there,

Don't tell me it ain't real! Don't you fucking dare!

[Lars:] Yeah, punk style in the car, nothing going on,

Turn up the radio, cuz it's my favorite song,

There's a club on the coast where all the kids get along,

Skins and punx, and wayward ones,

[Matt:] Nothing can go wrong!



Saturday,

Where else you gunna go?

There's no way,

I'm gonna end up at the disco,

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll.

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll,

To rock and roll, rock and roll.



[Tim:] Do you know what, when I show up, there's gonna be some fucking action,

So many styles, always so wild, that's the fucking attraction,

She said "What? I'll fuck 'em up", that's her satisfaction,

[Matt:] Bottle of red, straight to the head, detox transaction.

[Lars:] Hell's Angel's ran my neighborhood,

It was always understood,

I was running errands for the Angels,

I was a little fucking hood!

Punk rock was my way out, it was always in my blood,

I don't give a fuck if I was locked up, should be dead or in jail!



Saturday,

Where else you gunna go?

There's no way,

I'm gonna end up at the disco,

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll.



Saturday,

Where else you gunna go?

There's no way,

I'm gonna end up at the disco,

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll.



[Everybody:] Family turns their back on their son,

Now we're all alone,

Now we ain't got a home,

Now we're among our own!



Saturday,

Where else you gunna go?

There's no way,

I'm gonna end up at the disco,

Make my way,

Through fist fights and stilettos,

To rock and roll, rock and roll.

To rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll

To rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll

To rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll.

To rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll.

FIVE KNUCKLE LYRICS - The Rise And Fall (?) Of Corporate Rule

FIVE KNUCKLE LYRICS



"The Rise And Fall (?) Of Corporate Rule"






We’ve referred to this problem as free trade globalisation,

Taking the power from the community,

Putting it in the hands of the corporation,

Denying all chance of self-sufficiency.



So where do we go from here?



When the very institutions set up to protect us,

Only serve to exploit and continue to repress us.

Serving the interests of the rich minority,

Whilst exploiting that of the global majorities.



This world is not dying,

It’s being killed.



As the gap steadily increases between the rich and the poor,

And as public becomes private from the hospitals form the schools.

Face to face with the prospect of a working life for us all,

From the factory to the office, from the sweatshops to the malls.



And as our government’s sold out, they put profit over people,

Enforcing rules and regulations that keep the people unequal.

Free trade over fair trade with their trickle down theory,

But the facts are all there to show this simply isn’t working.



The time has come, we need to turn the tables, (We want our lives back.)

Make the power work for the people.

In order to change this we must understand it, (We want our lives back.)

Use it for our benefit.



Where to now? Where to now? What’s the solution?

Where to now? Where to now? We seek solutions.

OF MACHINES LYRICS - Becoming Closer To Closure

OF MACHINES LYRICS



"Becoming Closer To Closure"






Drawn to lines which fill the emptiness

Searching for a place

(The conversations)

(Well,)

(They start to turn...)

To heal the wounds



Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep

We can't afford you to be alone!

Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep



These dreams and the reality never seemed so refined

Until I awoke to find...



(That this house is not a home)

(But something I can not define)



Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep

We can't afford you to be alone!

Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep



How long will it be

Until I turn this key and just walk away

Just walk away

((And this I find so unlike me))

Seeking the parts that are lost

Never have I felt so deceived



Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep

We can't afford you to be alone!

Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep

LIFE'S BLOOD LYRICS - Youth Enrage

LIFE'S BLOOD LYRICS



"Youth Enrage"






There's a feeling that comes

From deep inside

A fire growing hotter

As life goes by

I am swallowed

Consumed by my

Youth Enrage

For all my life

Youth Enrage

To strain and strive

Can't bail out

I never will

From the start

Never had that option

Youth Enrage

For all my life

Youth Enrage

To strain and strive

It will always be this hard

To fight the hypocritical mind

It will always be this hard

To fight the ignorant kind

GLASSEATER LYRICS - To Feel Adored

GLASSEATER LYRICS



"To Feel Adored"






how do my lips feel?

can you feel my struggle?

emotions held in since childhood

and it's my turn to let you know

i've been stepped on,

walked on, abused, refused...

shallow people living shallow lives

learning first hand

the consequences of love

feeling so low

one with the floor

every now and then it comes and goes

feeling this high

up in the sky

oh how i've waited to feel adored

so much has changed since then

this inside is still tainted

slowly getting over it

at times i feel so untouchable

sometimes the smallest things bring me down

depression sometimes kills the best of them

so let me use you to forget about the past

and ill do it like that because you said i was the very best

how do my hands feel?

can you feel my pain?

because i've never felt this good

from me to you.

SAHARA HOTNIGHTS LYRICS - Fire Alarm

SAHARA HOTNIGHTS LYRICS



"Fire Alarm"






This is a red letter day

Your eyes shine as you say

I saw God and she looks like you

You're too proud and please

I try not to breathe

A sound might break us in two



No, no, no way

We're not making any promises

No, no, no way

We're not making any handshake deals



This is the sunniest day

You're so blown away

Saying: who can compete with you?

I don't know what to say

Hey, I'm not gonna stay

I don't want to conquer your land



He's got a fire alarm

And it calls when I do what I shouldn't do

Said I'm gonna do you no harm

Still I do it all over again I'm sorry



This is where I draw the line

I'm here to kill all the fun

But I know you'll get around

So good at turning you down

Out of place put of time

Yeah I know you'll get around
