What Coporate Rock Can’t Say - Good Clean Fun

You end up spending all your fight to keep your place under the light

In front of new kids who don’t seem concerned

So we must teach them what we’ve learned

When you’re DIY you don’t have to apologize, you can cut the ties

When you’re DIY there’s no need for compromise, you can be yourself

They can’t take it away: Punk will scream what corporate rock can’t say

It never works to play their game, things always turn out the same

Times have changed but it’s still not funny

They turn rebellion into money

When money’s involved, morals are pliable

You can’t be punk and commercially viable

No message survives, once it becomes buyable

If you want to make a difference keep it DIY-able

It’s time to give a second thought to what’s been gained

And now what’s been lost, once punk was young and dangerous

But now that’s all been taken from us

By an industry a billion dollars strong

That still has nothing on an old school singalong

We can fight, and we can win, it’s time we start this over again
