  • An update to a compilation video I did years ago from TH-cam-sourced material.
    “I Still Believe”
    Now who'd have thought that after all,
    Something as simple as rock 'n' roll would save us all.
    And who'd have thought that after all, it was rock 'n' roll.
    “Four Simple Words”
    Heigh ho heigh ho heigh ho!
    We're heading out to the punk rock show!
    Colleagues and friends condescend with a smile
    Yeah, but this is my culture, man, this is my home
    The dark huddled masses gather at the gate
    Yeah, the doors are at seven and the show starts at eight
    A few precious hours in a space of our own
    And when the band comes on, the only thing I really know
    I want to dance, I want to dance
    I want lust, and love, and a smattering of romance
    But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
    Tonight I'm gonna play it straight, I'm gonna take my chance
    I want to dance
    Yeah, is anybody else sick of the music that's churned out by lackluster scenesters from Shoreditch?
    Yeah, it's all sex, drugs and sins, like they're extras from Skins!
    But it's OK, cause they don't really mean it!
    I want bands who had to work for their keep
    Drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep
    Sleeping on the floor at a stranger's place
    Hungry just to do it all again the next day!
    I want to dance, I want to dance
    I want lust, and love, and a smattering of romance
    But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
    Tonight I'm gonna play it straight, I'm gonna take my chance
    I want to dance
    So put your hands on your hips
    And bring your knees in tight
    Yeah, we do this shit together man
    No fists, no fights!
    We're not trying to save the world
    So people think like us
    We just want our own space to dance, man
    No favours, no fuss
    Yeah, on blood, sweat and vinyl we have built ourselves a house
    If the roof is on fire, then we're gonna put it out
    Forget about your bitching and remember that you're blessed
    Because punk is for the kids who never fit in with the rest
    Alright
    Somebody told me that music with guitars
    Was going out of fashion and I had to laugh
    This shit wasn't fashionable when I fell in love
    If the hipsters move on, why should I give a fuck?
    I wanna dance, I wanna dance
    I want me some lust, some love
    And a smattering of that old time romance
    But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something
    Tonight I'm gonna play it straight, I'm gonna take my chance
    Yeah, I want to dance
    I want to dance
    I want you and me both to join hands down at the front
    So the next time I see you, remember these words, oh
    We'll sing like the barricades are down
    And we'll dance like no one's around
    Singing four simple words
