Verse #2:

"I'm a New Waver...
My girlfriend's a surfer"
Well, she's more of a poser than you are
And she won't fuck you anyway

Chorus #2:

Eh, it doesn't matter...you all suck
You don't know shit about punk rock
You're a bunch of fucking drug addicts
Screwing up what we call fun

Bridge:

I hate everything, that means you
I hate you more than I do
I got no time to sleep, no time to get laid
I got a 2" x 2", but it doesn't matter

Outro:

Fake hardcore
You spit on the Urinals
