about

Corporate hacks don't understand the true beauty of rock n roll, so we wrote this track to spite them.

lyrics

Lepers and preachers all have a home here
Universal bond of musical affair
Black or white nobody knows what's right
But we have fun regardless bleeding into the night
Hedonistic merry-go-round
No one knows what's about to go down

It was a band room riot
That's what we thought it was
A party to rival all the raging above
No responsibilities just the wind in our hair
Don't tell me what to do
I don't care

Corporations selling you music through beer
The salesmen attack and decide what you hear
But with radio waves and the internet raves
The magic of music continues to save
Passions are ablaze tonight
Not selling out unless they put up a fight

It was a band room riot
That's what we thought it was
A party to rival all the raging above
No responsibilities just the wind in our hair
Don't tell me what to do
I don't care

Guitar Solo

It was a band room riot
That's what we thought it was
A party to rival all the raging above
No responsibilities just the wind in our hair
Don't tell me what to do
I don't care (2x)

Heroes die and our empires continue to fall
But one thing remains the same the music reaches all
The booming of drums
The rumble of bass
The screaming guitars and the shimmer of keys
Don't let them put us in our our place
The excitement never leaves
So why not stay
