Bad Religion - Punk Rock Song lyrics
[Bad Religion - Punk Rock Song lyrics]
Have you been to the desert? Have
You walked with the dead?
There's a hundred thousand children being
Killed for their bread
And the figures don't lie
They speak of human disease
But we do what we want and
We think what we please
Have you lived the experience? Have
You witnessed the plague?
People making babies sometimes just to escape
In this land of competition
The compassion is gone
Yet, we ignore the needy and
We keep pushing on keep pushing on
This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who
Can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony, we do our share
But there's so many other
Fuckin' insects out there
And this is just a punk rock song
Have you visited the quagmire? Have
You swam in the shit?
The party convention and the real politik
The face is always different
The rhetoric the same
But we swallow it all and
We see nothing change nothing has changed
This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who
Can see something's wrong
Like workers in a factory, we do our share
But there's so many other
Fuckin' robots out there
And this is just a punk rock song
Ten million dollars on a losing campaign
Twenty million starving and writhing in pain
Big, strong people, unwilling to give
Small in vision and perspective
One in five kids below the poverty line
One population runnin' out of time
Runnin' out of time
This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who
Can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony, we do our share
But there's so many other
Fuckin' insects out there
And this is just a punk rock song
Figures don't lie
They speak of human disease
But we do what we want and
We think what we please
One in five kids below the poverty line
One population runnin' out of time
This is just a punk rock song
This is just a punk rock song
This is just a punk rock song
You walked with the dead?
There's a hundred thousand children being
Killed for their bread
And the figures don't lie
They speak of human disease
But we do what we want and
We think what we please
Have you lived the experience? Have
You witnessed the plague?
People making babies sometimes just to escape
In this land of competition
The compassion is gone
Yet, we ignore the needy and
We keep pushing on keep pushing on
This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who
Can see something's wrong
Like ants in a colony, we do our share
But there's so many other
Fuckin' insects out there
And this is just a punk rock song
Have you visited the quagmire? Have
You swam in the shit?
The party convention and the real politik
The face is always different
The rhetoric the same
But we swallow it all and
We see nothing change nothing has changed
This is just a punk rock song
Written for the people who
Can see something's wrong
Like workers in a factory, we do our share
But there's so many other
Fuckin' robots out there
And this is just a punk rock song
Ten million dollars on a losing campaign
Twenty million starving and writhing in pain

Runnin' out of time

This is just a punk rock song
This is just a punk rock song
This is just a punk rock song
