lyrics

Hey kid, do you wanna overthrow the establishment?
Well have I got a deal for you!
There’s people just like me, who think the world should be ruled by anarchy.
Yeah it’s the trendy thing to do.

And we say all cops are bastards
Every single one of us screams there are no gods no masters

Because punk is about not giving a fuck
Unless somebody says you’re not punk enough
Then you’re honor bound to prove them wrong
Buttons and patches on your vest
A stick and poke across your chest
All to show how unique you are.

Now you’ve gotta find a sub-genre to define your state of mind.
Cause everybody’s got a crew
You won’t make it on your own, your refusal to fit in will be your gravestone
Just stick to the tried and true

You can be hardcore or straightedge
If you meet somebody different don’t forget to condescend

Because punk is about not giving a fuck
Unless somebody says you’re not punk enough
Then you’re honor bound to prove them wrong
Buttons and patches on your vest
A stick and poke across your chest
All to show how unique you are.

Nobody cares about your dreams
Yeah you cannot change the world
None of us will ever amount to anything
We fool our ourselves into thinking
That we’re starting a revolution
Really we’ve had too much to drink

about

A Bird Among Men Bath, Maine

ABAM is Robyn Crews and I make
tongue in cheek, self deprecating folk punk from mid-coast Maine!

I started this project because I don't have enough friends to make a real punk band.
