1993: The Year Punk Died

from Canadian As Fuck by Ripcordz

/

lyrics

Sonic Youth's on screen
Egos big and mean
Is all of this what we were fighting for?
Arena Rock returns
Punk Rock bands get burned
It seems to me that we just lost the war
To the Demi-God called Thurston Moore

CHORUS
1991. Year of the lie.
1993. The Year Punk Died.
1992. The cash piles high.
1993. The Year Punk Died.

College stations suck the majors for big bucks
Seattle spawns a heavy metal cult
A boring west coast invasion results

Rollins thinks that he's a poet
Jello's vain and man he shows it
We had our chance but now we've blown it

Indies sell their souls, Punk Rock bands get old
California bores us all to death
The Punk revival sucks its final breath
