(Folk) Up The Punx!

about

I love the punk scene, but sometimes I think it gets a little exclusionary. This is supposed to be a place, free of all the terrible stuff that plagues the real world, but sometimes kids like to bring the terrible stuff from the real world (sexism, racism, ageism) into our little community. I just wish we could leave all that baggage at the door and sing some songs for a few hours every week.

lyrics

I’m not punk enough for punk
and I’m folk enough for folks
And I sometimes I hide my hurts with dirty jokes
But when we get together I always feel better
It’s the people that sing at shows I like the most
It’s the people that sing in crowds I like the most

Man, I lie everyday,
How you doing? “I’m okay”
So in songs I write the the words that I’m too afraid to say
So I hope you’ll sing along
As I sing this stupid song
Because its people that sing at shows I like the most
Yeah the people that sing in crowds I like the most

So thank you for being my friend
Yes thank you for being a friend
I might not always say it
but tonight, damnit I’ll sing it
Thank you for being my friend
