Sell-out

By Riverette

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

We’ve been playing the same punk music Haven’t changed our style in years Never ditched our punk attitude Still chasing the chicks with blue hair Just like hanging with my friends And playing my guitar Didn’t know it would cause such a stir And go this far... Sometimes I wonder What was the price of my fame? Loosing my fans And feeling such shame Why can’t they just accept My video on MTV And my song on the radio But they’re not happy for me It’s so lonely At the top When all your fans Think you’re a flop You should finally be happy But all you can do is pout Cause to all your former fans You’re just a punk-pop sell-out Written July 18th, 2001 © on Jan 05 2002 04:44 PM PST    0 • 10
