Calibretto 13 was an acoustic punk band from Kokomo, Indiana, United States. The band existed in three incarnations. The first being Black Sheep, then Calibretto 13, and finally Calibretto. Calibretto 13 was inspired by a comic book, and 13 was the only number that they all liked. Later, they shortened it to just Calibretto. The acoustic punk style of the band and the peculiar vocal style of singer Joe Whiteford gives the band their signature sound.

Verse 1
AmF Don’t you got better things to do than spread
your gossip and speak what’s untrue?
C You go to church, see through your haughty eyes
G Go to your friends and tell all your lies
AmF Go on over to your stupid social clique
C You religious hypocrites make me so sick
G You without sin, go ahead, cast the first stone
(No chord) I didn’t think so, so why don’t you just go home.
Prechorus:
EAm You claim to be a leader, you claim to make a stand
EAm But when your brother’s falling, you won’t even
FAm? give a hand. You claim to be so holy, you claim
FE to be so strong, but behind your charade i know
your motives are so wrong.
Chorus:
AmFCG It don’t mean a thing cuz talk is cheap
AmFCG Your actions count but your words you can’t keep
AmFCG It don’t mean a thing cuz talk is cheap
AmFCG You think you're so righteous, but I think you’re a creep
Verse 2 (same chords) You’re the kinda person who looks at others’ sin and spreads the word forgetting your own within (oh no) You go to church to see what’s in the news So you can gossip, so you can lie, so you can confuse
Pre-chorus 2 (same chords) See your brother’s falling down all the time Instead of showing mercy you convict him of a crime You like to watch them as they fall on down Instead of helping them you push them to the ground
Chorus again
The end (this is neat):
vox 1: chorus lyrics
vox 2: you’ll never be a leader, you’ll never make a stand. until you change your ways, my God will not hold out his hand.
vox 3: You claim to be so close to God. Behind the mask, motives are wrong.
The rest is Am, F, C, and G. It sounds nice to hammer on from Asus2 to Am. Listen to the song. Don’t gossip! :0)
