What could this be, too much
MTV? Chalk another fad up for
its fall into infamy. What's in a 
standard if it changes all the 
time? You're still having trouble 
in defining your own kind. Need 
I remind you, we all knew you 
before, you threw the rocks at the
stage from your glass house on 
the floor? Now I think you're 
punk, just because it's in. You 
found a foul mouth and a couple 
safety pins. 

Got a peaceful feeling, I don't 
want to fight no more. Got a 
peaceful feeling, I don't care if 
we're punk, or ska, or hardcore, 
enough for you, it's sad but true, 
you can call us names till your 
face turns blue. Our assurance 
comes from God, it's nothing 
new, we'll never care ‘cause 
we're never cool enough for you. 

That smug look on your face, 
your nose up in the air, your 
patches say you're open-minded, 
but still you couldn't bear, some 
punk thrown in with ska. You 
said it wouldn't work. Well you 
can take your Vespa home 
‘cause ska made you a jerk. The 
purist turns a deaf ear. He's such 
an intellect, Does he think his 
censorship is gaining our 
respect? The raising of a fist, like 
a trigger of a gun. Stop and 
see we're all alike, and we can 
dance as one. 

Got a peaceful feeling, I don't 
want to fight no more. Got a
