Rules Broken
They had a bad case of nostalgic blues
And started a group just to cop the tunes
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
And all the kids went crazy when the singer screamed
They set their cymbals on fire it's a punk rock scene
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
And if we could break the rules that were already
Broken before we were born,
Then we could hold them to their guns
Cause we'd be a punk rock band too
They had the whole town getting real tattoos
And wrote advice columns for the weekly review
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
What could they possibly do next to shock the crowd?
"We're gonna rock rock rock you, make you scream out loud"
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
And if we could break the rules that were already
Broken before we were born,
Then we could hold them to their guns
Cause we'd be a punk rock band too
And started a group just to cop the tunes
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
And all the kids went crazy when the singer screamed
They set their cymbals on fire it's a punk rock scene
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
And if we could break the rules that were already
Broken before we were born,
Then we could hold them to their guns
Cause we'd be a punk rock band too
They had the whole town getting real tattoos
And wrote advice columns for the weekly review
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
What could they possibly do next to shock the crowd?
"We're gonna rock rock rock you, make you scream out loud"
(bad boys whatcha gonna)
And if we could break the rules that were already
Broken before we were born,
Then we could hold them to their guns
Cause we'd be a punk rock band too
