about

Running down an alleyway in Cranbrook full of beer
Kids are having fun, the cops are full of fear
A Drummond hall too small, the Punks take to the streets
The town it closes down all courtesy the police

Here’s to the Punks
Here’s to the anarchists, the squeegees and the drunks
Here’s to the Punks

Oshawa cops shut us down before we take the stage
End up at a bonfire bash consuming beer not rage
Hanging out in Lethbridge, two cruisers come say “Hi”
It’s okay as long as we’re all ready to say ‘Bye

Here’s to the Punks
Here’s to the Teddy boys the crusties and the drunks
Here’s to the Punks

It’s not that we’re an anti-cop band in spite all of their wrongs
It’s just they give us so much stuff to put in all our songs

Hassles with the border guards are just par for the course
Expected from old Darwin’s choice — too dumb for the force
Peaceful Punks are hanging as the Summit starts to fail
Ambushed by a gang with badges, carted off to jail

Here’s to the Punks
Here’s to the Chelsea girls, the skinheads and the drunks
Here’s to the Punks
