about

This song was written in Kyle's basement. We were sitting around, not too thrilled with our present sound, and really we just wanted to write a song that sounded like The A.K.'s (DC hardcore punk band we all emulated), and somehow this came out. Tom and I both were threatened with being sent to Military School by our parents when we were messing up at school in 9th grade, which is probably one of the things that sparked our friendship. Anyway, this is a song about feeling unwanted by your parents and about being subjected to a system you never wanted to be a part of.

lyrics

lyrics:

Your parents they don’t want you. They sent you away to camp. You are expendable. You are the bastard son.

Hey kids your parents don’t want you!

Shave your head make sure your bags are packed. Pick a 4 year vacation Iran or Iraq? Through cooperation you fuel their machine. Through deliberation you set yourself free.
