What happened to our roots, did we forget them
What happened to our ancestors, did we reject them
What's with all this bullshit that we're shoving down our mouths
Did we forget what punk rock was all about

This is the sound of a new generation
So raise a fist up in the air
If you're coming along
If you're tired of all the fakers
Then cut them all down
And sing this song

What's with all these adults, trying to tell us how it's done
Don't trust over thirty, that's rule number one
It's seems like everyone's trying to make us disappear
If we scream loud enough maybe someone will hear

This is the sound of a new generation
So raise a fist up in the air
If you're coming along
If you're tired of all the fakers
Then cut them all down
And sing this song

And now for a lesson in punk rock history
It all started in the seventies where bands basically said "fuck you" to the mainstream Acts of the time
And decided to rebel with a brand new sound that melted the ears of anyone above the Age of thirty
This continued through the 1990s where punk itself started to bleed into the mainstream But still carried the same messages
Meanwhile, Japan had a punk uprising of its own in the 90s, with Seishun Punk Spawning a whole subculture of its own
Fast forward to today and punk is now a needle in a haystack, with the modern Conception of punk by the masses being a clusterfuck of misconceptions, definitions And Whatever Machine Gun Kelly is doing
So, ladies and gentlemen, I come to you with a proposal
We must take back punk rock with force and bring back its meaning: a big middle finger To the mainstream that wants to tell us what to say and how to sound
So, with that said

This is the sound of a new generation
So raise a fist up in the air
If you're coming along
If you're tired of all the fakers
Then cut them all down
And sing this song

This is the sound of a new generation
So raise a fist up in the air
If you're coming along
If you're tired of all the fakers
Then cut them all down
And sing this song
