The Way It Is

We don't got the dough

No manager or contacts

No picture promo packs

No pissholes from the mats

Punk rock roots audience

is non existent

round here the circus acts

are all suburban crap

We ain't no college band

we come from the laundromats

Closed minded yes I am

We'll stay limited

That is the way it is

Not the way it ends

That is the way it is

Not the way it ends

Who are the skank kids

Sposored jock threads

didn't make the football team

They got free instruments

Old school is no school

keep your ball caps

bad religion, black flag

American shit

competition, the local bands

touch down contracts

subliminal control

labeled epitaph!

lookin' like puppets

you couldn't pose a threat

don't you know less is more

back in the laundromats

No! No! No!
