We Laugh At Danger (and Break All The Rules) Lyrics - Against Me!

It was a birthday gift 

of a Mexican Telecaster 

And from this day on I will play along 

to all my young pioneers records 

And there will be a poetry spoken silently between me and the stereo 

I'll work mornings 

and you can work through the night 

Mary, there is no hope for us 

If this GM van don't make it 

across the state line 

we might as well lay down and die 

Because if Florida takes us 

we're taking everyone down with us 

Where we're coming from (yeah) 

will be the death us 

And I cannot help but hold on 

to a handful of times 

when what was spoken 

was a revolution in itself, 

and what we were doing 

was the only thing that mattered 

And how good it felt 

to kill the memory of nights spent 

holding your shirt for the smell 

I heard you used to cry 

when you made love to him 

but this band will play on 

Because all we can do is what we've always done. 

And on and on and on...
