[chorus] C Am Punk is dead, punk is dead, F C Yes that's right, punk is dead, C Am Punk is dead, punk is dead, F C It's just another cheap product for the consumers' head, C Am Bubblegum rock on plastic transistors, F C Schoolboy sedition backed by big time promoters, C Am CBS promoted the Clash, F C but not for revolution, just for cash. C Am Punk became a fashion just like hippie used to be, F C and it ain't got a thing to do with you or me C Am Movements are systems and systems kill, F C Movements are expressions of the public will. C Am Punk became a movement cause they all felt lost, F C but the leaders sold out and now we all pay the cost. [repeat chorus] C Am Punk narcissism was a social napalm, F C Rock star punk bands started doing real harm, C Am Preaching revolution, anarchy and change, F C As they sucked from the system that had given them their name. C Am Well I'm tired of staring through shit stained glass, F I'm tired of staring up a superstar's ass, C C I've got an ass and a heart and a name, Am F and I'm just waiting for my fifteen minutes fame. C C And me, yes me, do I want to burn? Am F Is there really something that I can learn? C C Do I need a business man to promote my angle? Am F Can I resist the carrots fame and fortune dangle C C I see the velvet zippies in their bondage gear, Am F The social elite with safety pins in their ear, C C I watch and understand that it don't mean a thing, Am F The scorpions attack, but the systems stole the sting [repeat chorus] C,Am,F,C 2x
