DAG It didn't happen for you No one wants to hear the truth Coming from three political queers Back in the punk rock blues So you break up the band And leave us all in tow And now we got to figure out where to go
GA DAG Caught it at a rave (Did it fuel your fascination?) Saw it on my TV (Did it lighten up your load?) And every fucking DJ (Did you feel affiliated?) Was telling me I'm free (Like your really had at all) Free to be a loser (Your taking crosses too high) Free to be a trend (Were the lights too bright?) Free to be a backlash over and over and over again (Was it all over somehow) GA DAG You say I'm losing inspiration One band at a time Cuz I got know that someone Somewhere out there Is singing for our side GA

BmADFGFBmAGF I come up share the motor and the blues What we built together we shared that too And the wind may come and the rain may fall But we stand together or we don't stand at all AG And I say "where are going you to now?" Now that the door is closed G (Where are you going to now?)
DAG Its the history of survival Swimming up the stream Crossing over one dam after another Until we get to Rock & Roll Heaven's Gate GA (Yeah you) DAG Caught it at a rave (Did it fuel your fascination?) Saw it on my TV (Did it lighten up your load?) And every fucking DJ (Did you feel affiliated?) Was telling me I'm free (Like your really had at all) Free to be a loser (You're taking crosses too high) Free to be a trend (Were the lights too bright?) Free to be a backlash over and over Until I get to Rock & Roll Heaven's Gate
