Verse 1:
Am          F      C
  Lost in a sea of combat

with wasted youth     when
did punk rock become
   F
so safe when did the
               C
scene become a joke
the kids who used to
         G
live for beer and speed
    G#
now want their fries and
Am
coke cursing and flipping
                F
birds are not allowed

   G  Am Am
pieces     they we could

pad the floor and walls
put cameras inside
          C
bathroom stalls we make
sure only nice bands
G
play back keeping
G#          Am
sour Madden Brothers
These kids could be
             F

And we could sing
           A      Em
my country Tiffany

F
  thee sweet land
of liberty whoa


Bridge:

up the barricades
like a skate in the
