Never made it in the punk rock crowd I
Beep boop just a little too loud I’m
Pet sematary can’t keep me down now
Hey Mr. sound guy, just make me loud guy
Google search you can find me on a mission
with a stacked backpack full of whack ambition now
The whole planet is my brand new kitchen
I’m mixing up fixin’s like a Sunday dinner now
Soak it all in but remember
A true butterfly knows that he come from a caterpillar
Let the fruit show where the root comes from
Some people earn wings, some find’em in a trust fund
Old songs in a new key
Green Day sold a whole lot of Dookie
Gotta switch up my routine
Nom nom me want a whole lotta cookie
Smash buttons till the game over
It’s a lot of hard work stayin’ woke, stayin’ sober
If you can’t take the love don’t lean for the kiss
Lot about living in a band van that I don’t miss
Put a fist through a rich kid’s mouth
Played a lot of rock shows nobody gave a shit about
Coulda’ took state but the team backed out
Yawl hated on my tracks don’t act like you miss’em now
Take the good with the bad times
Take struggle like a vitamin
Sad times invite them in
When the stress test puts pressure on your purse
Know a paycheck ain’t a measure of your worth, son
Let the love run through you
Let your complicated past make a path to your future
You can find joy if you know where to look
Some people hide it down in another dumb hook like

Each year the same story: My wife (handmade pop music) and I (black metal maniac) go on holiday. We need some "soft" but honest music for long car drives. It is a tough week in advance to dive deeply into musical scrap to find some pearls like THE CLASSIC CRIME! This album really rocks, sounding more British than American. The first seven songs plus the stormy "Cold Loud Dark" are catchy killers and this is an almost perfect result for an album. A fat pillar in this years's holiday soundtrack! H.L.
