lyrics

Does looking backward at your life make you feel down?
That you should have took your chances and left this town?
You say the more you sit and think about it
The less you think you had a chance at all
So if you have dreams too big to dare to try and live
And don't know where to start
Play the guitar and they all will come to hand

Everybody's happy in Timmy's punk rock band

Come on and join the greatest band that you'll see around
Here's an outlet for your amp, careful there's no ground
The cable's dead but the beer is warm and plenty
The microphone is taped on to a pole
So if you have things you wanna say but never got the
Time of day to share
Just let it blare and they all will understand

Everybody's happy in Timmy's punk rock band

Some folks call it lost potential, some folks call it getting old
But everything before's inconsequential
If you just take the chance to make the punk kids kick and dance
It'll be you who gets the last laugh after all

So if you dig chicks in ragged clothes who
Never drink but smell like cloves
All you have to do is get in the van

Everybody's happy in Timmy's punk rock band
