about

Dare to be similar!

lyrics

You don't need any talent
You don't need any brains
Just learn to play 4 chords
And write lyrics that are lame

Then pick your favorite cliche
And now you've got a plan
To be like all the other pop punk bands

And when it's time to write
Just plagiarize your favorites
Pretend like you belong

And then add single note leads
In between the choruses
That's how you write a pop punk song

You don't need inspiration
Or creativity
Just follow what's been done
And then copy slavishly

And if you're really lucky
You'll open for The Queers
And play your song that no one wants to hear

Because it's all been done
But don't let that fact discourage you
It doesn't make you wrong
So take a musical shit
And pretend that it's a hit
That's how you write a pop punk song

And tell all your friends that the fun never ends
That's how you write a pop punk song
