Fuck MTV... I Want My NYHC Songtext
von SubZero

Now my understanding is that Hardcore plays large places in Southern California
Now it does
In Southern California, in New York it plays Ritz about once a month
Almost once every two weeks now
Draws up to two thousand more people

CBGB seems to draw about five hundred or so Sunday afternoons
Well, it′s across the entire country
Almost every major city seems to have had some kind of Hardcore
It's getting bigger and bigger every day
It′s a lot of good out there
And then pretty soon it'll be mainstream and then you'll have to do something else

Get up out of bed and have a fuck show
In the morning, pay the phone, get ready for the show
Don′t have to watch ′em to stay sick of it all
We're gonna have some fun, we′re gonna get fuckin' nuts and look back

When you were a kid
Bare head boys and people don′t ever into it
Turn off the MTV
'Cause they took what we had and then they turned it into shit


Now they′re slamming through the sounds of New York's guitar
And all because these fucking bands are selling out their hearts
Henry Wilde introduced the word and look at 'em now
Put the baby dead to shame but where is he now?

Yeah look back
When you were a kid
They let all the people
That were into it

Turn off the MTV
′Cause they took what we had
And then they took it into shit

One, two, three, go
Give it all away, put the money in the bank
Never something, never sold, never something
Something that we could call our own name
Now we may never see it again

Look back
When you were a kid
They let all the people
That were into it

Turn off the MTV
′Cause they took what we had
And then they took it into shit
