The Lyrics

punk rock over you
parody of 'my friends over you' (some person in new found glory, i suppose)
new lyrics by nuero, 2-25-03
it's been a year or so
since pop-punk hit its prime
this is becoming too much for me
the bad vocals and bad guitars
and it's alright to pretend
that you're a punk
but when you're there on mtv
that's when you really start to suck

bad vocals, bad lyrics, blink ripoff, so ironic

it's everything i wanted
that this pop-punk craze had never started
at first it was cool way back with blink
but when they started to stink
and more ripoffs came along
i'd still choose punk rock over you

it's been a year or so
since blink lost my interest
and that's when all these crappy bands
came along to rip off them
and it's alright to pretend
that you can rock
but when you just shop at hot topic
you're falling to a trend

bad vocals, bad lyrics, blink ripoff, so ironic

it's everything i wanted
that this pop-punk craze had never started
at first it was cool way back with blink
but when they started to stink
and more ripoffs came along
i'd still choose punk rock over you
punk rock over you!

and maybe i hate this
i hate this
and maybe you should write more original tunes

it's everything i wanted
that this pop-punk craze had never started
at first it was cool way back with blink
but when they started to stink
and more ripoffs came along
i'd still choose punk rock over you
punk rock over you!

GoodCharlotte now we're talking wannabe punk! NFG they've just become big thats all..This song has got too big and I don't like it that much but they're older stuff from the old album then people see that they're a true band

Aw, don't bash NFG. They're more punk than bs Good Charlotte and Blink who got too big for themselves. Hopefully, NFG doesn't do the same, but if they keep it up the way they are they'll sell out and that's sad.

Just because a band comes along and imitates the past doesn't mean that they can't make the music. You don't even realize that Blink and Green Day were reviled by the old schoolers! You can take your ignorant punk rock elitism and shove it.

Oh dear, the old 'punker than thou' arguments again...this time in the shallow end :Þ

I used to get riled up about bands that were 'selling out punk'. Ironically, it was often the bands that you cite as being more punk than the ones you're now complaining about. Luckily, i mellowed out. I still listen to my old punk CDs (and yes, i'm so 'punk'...nay...'oldschool' i have stuff on vinyl - that never even came out on CD. So i outpunk all of you! :Þ j/k) but i also like Ace of Base, and shock-horror! Justin Timberlake and some Progressive Blues stuff you are not likely to have heard of. I'm not sure where i'm going with this...but when am i ever?

I think it sucked because punk rock is the best music out there! Rap is the real one that's crap! Just because you don't like punk doesn't mean u should try to get other ppl to hate it, biotch!

don't talk crap about NFG they don't suck

For clarification to this thing that nobody's commented on for months, I never claimed 'punk rock elitism' or 'punker than thou' status. It's just amusing to see these bands copy blink and Green Day when they were the copycats themselves. Also New Found Glory annoys the hell out of me.

Sorry, but am i missing sumthing? Is that song supposed to have a point? Is it even supposed to be like the original? NFG are essence of pure punk. Dont take the mick. The lyrics don't mean anything, or make sense, or rhyme. I completely agree with that West guy. Shove it.
nuero - January 26, 2004 - Report this comment
Ahem. That West fellow told me to shove it based on my 'punk rock elitism,' which I, in fact, don't have. I don't know if I've stressed this enough, but, yeah, Green Day and blink got a lot of slack. Now, they're mediocre sellout musicians. Cool, good for them. I still like old Green Day, and Dude Ranch (blink), but this copycat of the copycat (which was the point of the parody and has been a joke I've had since I heard this song) is just funny. Seriously, no punk rock elitism, although I'd choose actual punk rock over this regurgitated MTV crap. Shove it.

burbie - August 28, 2004 - Report this comment
whatever jubee you asshole . . . ever hear of something called sarcasm . . . besides all the bands that you like so much have their songs in heavy rotation on most popular alternative radio stations. anyway, nfg isnt a sellout because their goal was to play on mtv. get your facts straight idiot.

punk-rock (or as i call it ''hardcore'' pop) note my sarcasm. is just boy bands thinking they be like rock bands. the parody was good 5's. i liked green day and blink, before mtv got them and nfg r just crap neway.

this sucked.. duh all those hardcore punk rock fags who think theyre so hardcore just cuz that got badges on theyre jacket and they have a 2 inch limp mohak can bite me. new found glory is good blink 182 is good and if your gonna talk smack......at least thoses bands wanna get heard. the guy for rancid sounds like he has a dick in his mouth, nofx sounds like he got kicked in the nutS, and the casualties can't even sing.. Don't worry nfg and blink fans all the so called "punk" bands do is whine about how they hate george bush...........SO ALL YOU NFG HATERS....SUCK IT!!!!!! O YEAH LOOK WHO'S SELLIN RECORDS (COUGH ...NFG....COUNGH......BLINK 182) EXCUSE ME

i love the "i'm more punk rock than you" arugments. i used to have those in about 7th grade. anyway, new found glory was the first "punk" band i ever really listened to besides blink. people just call bands like good charlotte and simple plan punk because the dumba**** don't know what else to call it. i don't think nfg is in any way in that pop-punk crap phase, they're all their own, they don't sound like other bands out there. this song was lame, anyway. the timing was off.
