Anti-Manifesto - Propagandhi

Dance and laugh and play

Ignore the message we convey

It seems we’re only here to entertain

A rebellion cut-to-fit

I refuse to be the soundtrack to it

While we entertain we’re still knee-deep in shit

There’s something wrong inside

We’ve played it safe, enjoyed the ride

You won’t like this but I’ve something to confide:

We strive for something more

Than a faded sticker on a skateboard

Now we’ve rained on your parade and we’re out the door

And I don’t even care any fucking more

Witness this pair in accomplice

Witness a pair: lethargic, unconscious

No brows furrowed in question

Complacent, completing their tasks

No questions asked

Consider this critic a cretin

Just resting on laurels completely invented

Word acrobatics performed with both harness and net

I am so full of shit

But I will remain until this self-awareness fades

Until I defeat the purpose of this soapbox

That you made

That you made

Hope, perseverance, a vision (some doubt)

Green ink, a two-six, a bad case of big-mouth

A sum of our parts and I’ve never laughed harder

A song in our hearts and I’ve never laughed harder

It don’t really matter 'cuz nothing’s ever felt as right as this

By the way, I stole this riff

Dance and laugh and play

Ignore the message we convey

It seems we’re only here to entertain

A rebellion cut-to-fit

I refuse to be the soundtrack to it

While we entertain we’re still knee-deep in shit

And we’re so full of it
