Humanifesto - So I Hunt Fame lyrics

rate me

You've got your leathers, your hair's spiked up and dyed black<br />

You make sure everyone sees you at punk shows<br />

You think you're scene, you say your nickname is "Punk Rock"<br />

But you're a poser, boy, and everybody knows<br />

<br />

You can't claim to support indie punk rock bands<br />

When you download all your music off the net<br />

So would you please stop claiming Montreal elite<br />

You're an embarrassment to our entire scene<br />

<br />

You're booking shows, and you're keeping all the money<br />

But you'll remind us of the favour that you've done<br />

You're selling comps, but the proceeds line your pockets<br />

And everyone knows that your Punk Fest was a joke<br />

<br />

So can you tell me which mentalities you fight?<br />

Which charities have you donated to?<br />

When your best friend is a racist homophobe<br />

How can you even pretend to be punk rock?<br />

<br />

You say you're progressive, say you're working for the cause<br />

You say you're in it for the music and the bands<br />

You spout politics, say you're against aggression<br />

But your arguments all turn to confrontation<br />

<br />

So can't you leave us all alone and just go home<br />

Go work a 9 to 5 job till you die<br />

We've had it up to here with your big shot ideas<br />

That never serve anyone other than yourself.
