The Separation Of Church & Skate Lyrics - Nofx

The Separation Of Church And Skate 

lost in a sea of combat boots, flush the bouncers with wasted youth 

when did punk rock become so safe, when did the scene become a joke 

the kids who used to live for beer and speed now want their fries and coke 

cursing and flipping birds are not allowed, in fact let's keep noise levels down 

must separate the church and skate 

when dont we put pad on the kids, helmets, head gear and mouth pieces 

they we could pad the floor and walls, put cameras inside bathroom stalls 

we make sure only nice bands play, and we could sing my country 'tis of thee sweet land of liberty 

when did punk rock become so safe 

i know it wasnt Duane or Fletcher, who put up the barricades 

like a skate in the heart, somehow we got driven apart

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

i want conflict i want dissent, i want the scene to represent 

our hatred of authority, our fight against complacency 

stop singing songs about girls and love, you killed the owl you freed the dove 

confrontation and politics replaced with harmonies and shticks 

when did punk rock become so tame, these fucking bands all sound the same 

we want our fights we want our thugs, we want our burns we want our drungs 

where is the violent apathy, these fucking records are rated G
