[Verse 1] Scuffed boots Old scars Name scratched deep in the tabletop Cold pint Cheap jar Laughing while the jukebox shuts off
[Pre-Chorus] Can you feel that burn in your throat Same old anger stuck in your coat We’re still here They wrote us off Spit on the ground We shake it off
[Chorus] Boots on the barroom floor Fists in the air We roar Oi Oi Never gonna die Shout it till we crack the sky Boots on the barroom floor Hearts like a tug-of-war Oi Oi Living on a dare If you’re lost We’ll meet you there
[Verse 2] Crooked teeth Split lip Stories in the patches we wear Late train Tight grip Ticket was a punch in the air
[Pre-Chorus] Can you feel that thud in your chest Beat of every misfit and pest We’re the stain they can’t scrub out Sing it ugly Scream and shout
[Chorus]
[Bridge] [breakdown Just drums and voice] We’ve been kicked We’ve been framed They gave us a number We kept our name We’ve been broke We’ve been bruised Still we stand together Nothing to lose (hey!)
[crescendo Full band slams back] All in All out Every scar’s another shout
[Chorus]
Style of Music
rock, Raw street-punk oi anthem with gang vocals and male lead; sharp overdriven guitars, driving bass locked tight with a stomping kick-snare. Verses are tight and shouted, pre-chorus climbs with tom fills, chorus explodes with big crowd shouts and simple power-chord progression. Brief middle-eight breakdown drops guitars for a drum-and-voice chant before everything slams back in., punk, oi
