lyrics

F*** authority, stick it to the man. I'm gonna start a riot, just because I can. Let's go out in search of anarchy. So down with the war and down with the law and down with some other things that rhyme with 'law' and my Mum wants me home in time for tea.

But I just want to get high and listen to 'A.F.I' and get bits of metal pinned into my face. So I sing this punk rock song for the day it all went wrong: when my Grandma saw my profile on Myspace.

Cos we wanna get drunk and play punk rock and shout rude words like, 'balls' and, 'f***' and my Mum cooked lasagne specially. And we wanna get laid and we wanna do drugs and we wanna run around and act like thugs. On Monday I've got Maths G.C.S.E

But I just want to have sex and listen to 'NOFX', I can't even knock one out in privacy. So I sing this punk rock tune as I tidy up my room otherwise I won't get ice cream after tea.

Now I want to be a kid and just listen to 'Rancid', but I have to go and get myself a job. So I cover my tatoos, when I go to interviews, 'cause they just make me look like a massive nob.

So, f*** authority, stick it to the man. I'm gonna start a riot, just because I can. Let's go out in search of anarchy. So down with the war and down with the law and down with some other things that rhyme with 'law' and tell my Mum won't be home for tea!
