The Separation of Church and Skate Lyrics

36 ContributorsThe Separation of Church and Skate Lyrics“The Separation of Church and Skate” is the opening track of NOFX’s ninth studio album The War On Errorism.
The title is a play on the phrase “The separation of Church and State.”

(Hey Dad!)
What do you want to do today?
(We don't know!)
Wanna go to the matinee?
(No!)
Wanna go to the Amusement Park?
(No!)
Wanna go to the punk rock show?
(Yeah! Let's go to the punk rock show!)
Lost in a sea of combat boots
Flush the bouncers with wasted youth
When did punk rock become so safe?
When did the scene become a joke?
The kids who used to live for beer and speed
Now want their fries and coke
Cursing and birds are not allowed
In fact let's keep noise levels down
Must separate the church and skate!
Why don't we put pads on the kids?
Helmets, head gear and mouth pieces!
Then we could pad the floors and walls
Put cameras inside bathroom stalls
We make sure only nice bands play
Make every show a matinee
Teach kids to be all they can be
And we could sing my country tis of thee
Sweet land of liberty
When did punk rock become so safe?
I know it wasn't Duane or Fletcher
Who put up the barricades
Like a stake in the heart
Somehow we got driven apart
I want conflict! I want dissent!
I want the scene to represent
Our hatred of authority
Our fight against complacency
Stop singing songs 'bout girls and love!
You killed the owl! You freed the dove!
Confrontation and politics
Replaced with harmonies and shticks
When did punk rock become so tame?
These fucking bands all sound the same
We want our fights we want our thugs!
We want our burns we want our drugs!
Where is the violent apathy?!
These fucking records are rated G!
When did punk rock become so safe?!

Decom‐Posuer Lyrics

[Verse]
She's a painting out of focus
With no good sense of intention
She's authentic
She's a model of disaster
With a heart of revolution
She's so innocent
But guilty's her plea
Everybody wants to save her from herself
They really want to save themselves
[Verse 2]
She's got the grace of a tourist
With the charm of demolition
She's a poem without a meter or rhyme
A random design of a flower
Like a rose, no one really knows
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
She's a master
-piece deserving
Restoration or condemnation
Time will tell us if she's a lifer or a decom-poseur
She is rose, no one really knows

American Errorist (I Hate Hate Haters) Lyrics

2 ContributorsAmerican Errorist LyricsIt's okay
Allow yourself a little hate
Hatred is not so bad
When directed at injustice
You can turn the other cheek
Just don't turn the other way
Enemy of the planet
We finally have a common hate
A reason to forget about our differences
And stand as a united front
It's up to us, we must expose, humiliate
American Errorists
We'll start with one
((The... War... Has... Just begun))
((The... War... Has... Just begun))

We Got Two Jealous Agains Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought you were the one when I heard Holidays in the Sun come from your bedroom
But my mind started to stray when I saw Youth of Today mixed with your singles
[Verse 2]
What's with this Underdog and this GnR EP?
I don't think Hanoi Rocks and I don't want your Paul Stanley next to my Subhumans gatefold
I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I don't think this record merger's gonna work
[Chorus]
But when I saw Christ on Parade and This is Boston, Not LA
I knew you were the one
[Verse 3]
I knew you were for me when I saw the first Vandals EP
I found SNFU and cool, I owned that record too
Seems we both had Social Unrest and sung "she's a pervert nurse"
We both had the first pressing of How Could Hell Be Any Worse
[Chorus]
I knew you were the one
[Verse 4]
So now we got two Earth ADs
We got two Killing Jokes
We got two Adolescents
Two Peni's and two The Crews
We got two Someone Got Their Head Kicked Ins
We got two Declines, two Damageds
And two Jealous Agains
[Bridge]
I knew you were the one
When I saw Machine Gun Etiquette
I knew you were the one
When I saw the Peace War comp
[Verse 5]
We got two Articles of Faith
31 minutes of Group Sex
A couple of Avengers
And a pair of Out Of Steps
We got two What We Do Is Secret
We got two TSOL's
We got two Freedom Of Choices
We got two Three Hits From Hells
[Chorus]
I knew you were the one

Whoops, I OD’d Lyrics

15 ContributorsWhoops, I OD’d LyricsWhoops I OD'd
Shortness of breath
Call ambulance
Tell my wife I
Error in judgement cut my life
No second chance, no guiding light
I never meant to cause you pain
I never thought I'd be the one who took the fall
I got lost in the moment
Assholes like to test the limit
Six minutes down
Breathing machine
Brain not feel right
The look on you is killing me
Drowning in shame but don't feel bad
Cause I never feared consequences
Hate regrets more than apologies
A year has passed, like photographs
My life is just a scrapbook
Of old friends and faded memories
Looks like I pulled the rug from under myself
The fall's too much for me to recover from
It's been real fun but now I must say goodbye
I'll see you all at Oki Dogs
See you all at Oki Dogs
