Motley Crew by The Jackalopes Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2003

(verse1)
I  got my first KISS record when I was just a baby boy
And  GI Joe was still a foot tall toy
And Lynyrd Skynyrd was the coolest band in the world
And I still thought Alice Cooper was a girl

Well  my dad liked Zeppelin but I liked Donnie & Marie
And  we both liked the Monkees and that's alright by me
Punk was happenin' a million miles away
And  I didn't give a shit til' about the 3rd or 4th grade

Punk rock was cool but I was more into Motley Crue
Wasp, Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot and Stryper too
And to this day I'm a metal-head thru and thru
And  it's still OK to do what I wanna do
(chorus)
Cuz I like Motley Crue
And the Dead Kennedys too
I like Anthrax
And I like Black Flag
I like Van Halen
And I worship GG Allin
GBH and the Exploited too
And I love a motley crew!
(verse2)
The Misfits, Samhain and Danzig were my life
That is until I found my wife
The Police, 7 Seconds, Social D. and Christian Death
JFA and Guns N' Roses in the very same breath
DRI and Suicidal will live forever
I need a musical stew of safety pins and leather
Skate punks, rude boys, goths and headbangers
Tryin' to put their music onto nice little hangers

Purists, poseurs, critics and fakers
Judgemental, simple minded, no sense makers
Sex Pistols or the Spice Girls it's all the same
People makin' music for money , fun or fame
(repeat chorus)
(band introduction)
(repeat chorus)
