Dead Kennedys

Chickenshit Conformist

作词:Boucher Eric R, Henley Darren Eric, Lyall Geoffrey V, Pepperell Raymond John

Punk's not dead, it just deserves to die
When it becomes another stale cartoon
A close-minded, self-centered social club
Ideas don't matter, it's who you know

If the music's gotten boring, it's because of the people
Who want everyone to sound the same
Who drive bright people out of our so-called scene
'Til all that's left is just a meaningless fad

Hardcore formulas are dog shit
Change and caring are what's real
Is this a state of mind
Or just another label?

The joy and hope of an alternative
Have become its own cliche
A hairstyle's not a lifestyle
Imagine Sid Vicious at 35

Who needs a scene? Scared to love and to feel?
Judging everything by loud fast rules appeal
Who played last night? I don't know, I forgot
But diving off the stage was a lot of fun

So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees

Make the same old mistakes
Again and again
Chickenshit conformist
Like your parents

What's ripped us apart even more than drugs
Are the thieves and the goddamn liars
Flipping people off when they share their stuff
When someone falls, are there any friends?

Harder core than thou for a year or two
Then it's time to get a real job
Others stay home, it's no fun to go out
When the gigs are wrecked by gangs and thugs

When the thugs form bands, look who gets record deals
From New York metal labels looking to scam
Who sign the most racist queer-bashing bands they can find
To make a buck revving kids up for war

Walk tall, act small
Only as tough as gang approval
Unity is bullshit
When it's under someone's fat boot

Where's the common cause?
Too many factions safely sulk in their shells
Agree with us on everything or we won't help with anything
That kind of attitude just makes a split grow wider

Guess who's laughing
While the world explodes?
When we're all crybabies
Who fight best among ourselves?

Chickenshit conformist
Like your parents

That farty old rock and roll attitude's back
'It's competition, man, we wanna break big
Who needs friends when the money's good?
That's right, the '70s are back

Cock-rock metal's like a bad laxative
It just don't move me, ya know?
The music's okay when there's more ideas than solos
Do we really need the attitude too?

Shedding thin skin too quickly
As a fan it disappoints me
Same old stupid sexist lyrics
Or is Satan all you can think of?

Crossover is just another word for lack of ideas
Maybe what we need are more trolls under the bridge
Will the metalheads finally learn something?
Or will the punks throw away their education?

No one's ever the best
Once they believe their own press
Maturing don't mean rehashing
Mistakes of the past

So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees

Make the same old mistakes
Again and again
Chickenshit conformist
Like your parents

The more things change, the more they stay the same
We can't grow when we won't criticize ourselves
The '60s weren't all failure, it's the '70s that stunk
As the clock ticks, we dig the same hole

Music scenes ain't real life, they won't get rid of the bomb
Won't eliminate rape or bring down the banks
Any kind of real change takes more time and work
Than changing channels on a TV set

So why are we so eager to please?
Peer pressure decrees
So eager to please
Peer pressure decrees

Make the same old mistakes
Again and again
Chickenshit conformist
Like your parents
