lyrics
The children are crying, the wife is criticizing
the boss is pissing and moaning, everyone’s got to get their piece
That’s alright, that’s okay, I wouldn’t have it any other way
I’m a goddamned civilization upholding beast
Friday night I’ve got to get what’s mine
If I don’t I just might lose my goddamn mind
Daddy needs rock and roll, rock and roll
Daddy needs rock and roll, rock and roll
I could just quit my job
Nothing gets done, nobody gets paid
the company stumbles, the economy crumbles
I won’t pay, won’t owe this assload of taxes
no no no no no
The government crumbles
I could abandon my wife and kids
My boys grow up lawless savages running wild in the streets
Society’s collapse complete
This Oakland group pulls no punches, serving up a hard-hitting punk album that recalls the blistering brilliance of Refused. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 8, 2020
Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022
