D                          G                 A
If I had a penny for every time that someone said,

D                                   E                 A
Didn't you read the magazines? They said that punk is dead,

I'd have the money to waste my time at shows most every night,

But if I want to flex my head with a sense of community,

While running around in circle pits, you know what it has to be.
