Against Me! - Same Old Song lyrics

I'm sick of hearing the same old song
The same old heartbreaking story about
Some poor shit whose
Life sucks dick thinking he's
Gonna change the
World through another angry song
Well I don't see
Progress just repetition same old
Songs about oppression
Another band that will break up in a year
Because no one in it really cared
Just in it so they could say they tried
To their kids when they wonder why
Why they let the world get to
The point that it is
Yeah we've all tasted oppression but still
We stand on division letting fashion
Taint our vision and thinking that our
Clothes alone damage the system

I'm sick of hearing the same old songs

We haven't even made a dent but
The system's not going to let
Us forget that every time we
Make a stand Whitey smashes
Us back down again yeah I know
We all got problems and
I don't think that this song's
Going to solve them why can't you find your
Own inspiration instead
Of sponging off last year's condensation
It's unfortunate that you've got
No solution to the problems of oppression
Pollution, abuse, death, self-sacrifice
Sometimes reality is an ugly thing
Oh, yes this world is still a mess
But, you still have one more complaint
To add on to this list
Just one more dead weight to help
Pull down this sinking ship

Same old heartbreaking story
