Bigger Than Punk Rock - Sonic Boom Six

Well I remember at a party

A couple a years ago when I saw an MC

He ripped the mic then he passed it to me

I learned a little lesson, he helped me to see

It’s not about choosing guitar or the decks;

It’s doing it yourself that gets the respect

Stuck like a sign, now was the time

I was ready for the beat, ready for the bassline and boom!

Now we’re mixing the sound for the show

So punks say Oi!

B-Boys say Bo!

We’ve seen them come and I’ve watched the bands go

I’d better get a dedicated outlook yo

And that’s the reason that we came and add a twist

I thought that punk was all about the freedom mister!

Don’t want to be the sound to tick off your list

We’re bigger than this punk rock

Well anything we call 'punk rock'

In a category called 'punk rock'

'Punk rock' is only ever going to be punk rock

Some things are bigger than punk rock

Look around

No, we aren’t unified by guitars crashing down

Revolution is more than sound

We’re better together and still we’re going nowhere

Can’t see the wood for the scene

But in the spaces between lies the truth that we’ve got

And it’s bigger than punk rock

Anyway, never going to never pin us down

Any style, play it from a squat to a stage

Strike Anywhere, spread it about like shareware

Anyone far beyond little pond, respond

Yet, this mindset;

Preach the converted, yet we forget

It’s just Minor Threats and fanzines are

Empty of meaning if we’re not being UK

Stop pretending that it’s not UK

Not America we’re in UK

Got to sing it like we’re from UK

And maybe then we’ll find a way

Look around

Do we have all the unity we sing of in this crowd?

Revolution is more than sound

We’re better together and still we’re going nowhere

Can’t see the wood for the scene

But in the spaces between lies the truth that we’ve got

And it’s bigger than punk rock

Round in circles.

I can’t see this.

Revolution

More than just a sound

We’re better together and still we’re going nowhere

Can’t see the wood for the scene

But in the spaces between lies the truth that we’ve got

And it’s bigger than punk rock

But in the spaces between lies the truth that we’ve got

And it’s bigger than punk rock
