Punks Doing Stuff Songtext
von 92FU

Greg had a record store
Sold a little bit of everything
Metal, indie, and punk rock
And he helped young kids to find
Something better than what they knew
The bands on the fliers on his wall
It could have been so much less

The kids at 1030
Had folks cooking every Sunday
Their living room filled with punks
And we talked about punk rock while
Chopping celery stalks and
Making the soup for Food Not Bombs
They could have been doing something else

And it blows my mind
To see what can transpire
When folks come together
To try to make just a little bit more


Library in Oregon Hill
Sitting in the front room of a house
Shelves filled to the ceiling with radical texts
They′d open the place every week for
Neighborhood folks to meet
Held community workshops on request
They could have done so much less

Punk house in Barton Heights
Murals on the bricks outside
Folks on the porch
Guns and scanners in hand
Copwatching the police
Opening up the community
Holding open hours for neighborhood kids
They could have done anything else

And it blows my mind
To see what can transpire
When folks come together
To try to make just a little bit more

And it's inspiring to me
To try to be more than me
And it lit a fire in me
To help folks come together
To make something good
