There´s No Way "Punk Was Meant To Be Done" (You Clown Doctor)

Latterman
(album: Turn Up The Punk, We´ll Be Singing)

you can´t do rock and roll wrong.
now that´s my fucking way to think.
and passion doesn´t just come from
a simple 3 chord pop punk progression.
so stand up and take a look
and you´ll find yourself
in a sea of amazing friends.
and it just goes to show
that your bank account
means nothing to them.

it sure doesn´t to me
or to this diy scene.

so what´s your score
that´s been calculated
by hollow social norms.
and in your heart
have you found a place where
it seems somewhat clear.
where you can rise above
and get past creative killing standards today.
so let´s ascribe new values to our lives.

so how can we rate ourselves
by numbers and letters and not ignore
diversity within ourselves?
putting money over mind equates emptiness.

when we were young
we were told to follow footsteps.
but when the foot steps on our dreams
it´s time to walk away.

if we can walk together
we can get past those numbers and letters.
if we can rock together
we will get past those numbers and letters.

there´s no score.
there´s too many things
our consumer culture just ignores.
so in our world let´s build a place
where it is always clear.
where we resist and refute competition
and put our value in community.
so let´s ascribe new values to our lives.
