ADHERENCE TO ETHICS
THAT HELP DEFINE A SCENE
A QUARTER-CENTURY OF THE SAME OLD
PROBLEMS AND LYRICAL THEMES

FOREIGN SHORES,
STRANGERS FLOORS
BUT THERE’S NOTHING STRANGE
ABOUT THIS GLOBAL EXCHANGE

ALMOST OVER THE HILL
BUT THE CLIMB’S STILL STEEP
STILL HAVEN’T GROWN UP OR SOLD OUT
SOMEHOW THIS CHAOS APPEALS TO ME

ANOTHER SLEEPLESS NIGHT
ANOTHER RED EYE FLIGHT
UNCONSCIOUS BEFORE WE’RE IN THE AIR
WAKE ME UP WHEN WE GET THERE

METAL TAUGHT ME HISTORY
PUNK TAUGHT ME GEOGRAPHY
THESE SCENES MAY NEVER CHANGE THE WORLD
BUT THEY CERTAINLY CHANGED ME

NO GLAMOUR, NO GREED, NO WEALTH, NO FAME
POOR ROLLS, BAD HANDS, GOOD FRIENDS, NEW LANDS
ROCK’N’ROLLS A LOSERS GAME
AND WE’RE WINNING!

IS THIS INTEGRITY OR STUPIDITY? X 3
