Lyrics
LIE - SPIN - REPEAT… BELIEVE
You’re looking for a goat to scape
A different face you’re supposed to hate
Sympathy for your plight only goes so far
To see the lie within belief in your alternative reality
Open up your eyes, don’t fall in line no more
I’d like to thank you for your blind acceptance of the fantasy
This one’s on you
What makes you think it’s just a game?
And if you win, you got it made?
So how is all that winning treating you so far?
Straight out of 1984
They told you lies, then you wanted more
2+2 isn’t 5, but you just don’t care
I’d like to thank you for your loyal chanting of the brand, way to go
This one’s on you
And if you ask me,
You can’t handle the truth
I’m willing to hear your side, but
No dice if you’re never gonna give me proof
I’d like to thank you for your loyal chanting of the brand, yeah
I’d like to thank you for your vote against your own self-interest
I’d like to thank you, all the oxymorons of false reality
This one’s on you
… on you… ON YOU

Im 18 and i gotta say thank u DESCENDENTS for being the first band to get me into punk🙏🏼 “milo goes to college” is a masterpiece and u got so many more great songs ima fan 4L

[@scoutlikestopoop7887]

I swear everyone LOVES Milo Goes to College and then you got Everything Sux which is what I think the best album with way better songs getting not enough attention.

[@GLASSB182]

I'm always stoked to see a new Descendents song!!! I've got a guitar cover and guitar tab up on my channel now for this song if anyone is interested!

[@senorpigeon9564]

They use “age” as a slang where they lived. Examples for everyday usAGE: Nuggets-Nuggage Floor-Floorage I think they explain it in their documentary that was recently posted. Pretty cool stuff.

[@rebbeshort]

[@qshard4587]

I absolutely love that you guys are against voting. Many other large punk bands are telling people to vote, such as rise against and bad religion. They've lost their way and are guiding the blind followers down a bad path. It makes me so incredibly hopeful that you guys, one of the top dogs are still preaching what's right: Dont fall in line, dont take orders, and done partake in their system. You make me proud to be punk. Thank you so much guys, lots of love from phoenix arizona!

[@guthrietheboy2347]

mate, what are you talkin' about? they wanna vote out trump

[@HuronadoRacer]

Vuelvan a Chile, para pasar un rato

[@whoami7721]

Descendents have grown up and are getting political. Though I guess "Hey Hey" could be political. It's good they don't indict one side or the other. Both seem to live in their own bubbles.

[@vvvnokk8309]

"Hey Hey'" was written around the time Reagan became president. I think the lyrics may relate to his pro war views and aggression toward the Soviet Union.

[@whoami7721]

@@vvvnokk8309 I remember the 80s Cold War mindset back then. It was definitely the Soviets were the Evil Empire that just wanted to blow us up.

[@slashtrio]

I agree that humans tend to exist in their own bubbles, but not all bubbles are equally delusional or equally good or bad.

[@guthrietheboy2347]

M-16, Statue of liberty, caught, merican, sad state of affairs are also political songs.

[@layne05]

I swear whenever a band gets political people act like said band hasn't done that before. Have you never paid attention to M-16 or "Merican?

[@Pirsanth17]

[@danielsolano330]

The irony is that this band was apolitical in their early days.

[@samhain409]

@@danielsolano330 Yeah I mean I really relate to Cleans Sheets on a much more personal level lol

[@TheCrabMagic]

@@danielsolano330 I mean, they had songs like "M-16" and "Statue of Liberty" on their first album. However, they weren't shilling for the DNC and critiquing the system as a whole at that time

[@dtklamf7457]

Except back then Reagan was the establishment & punk was against it, now they're all in favor of the establishment. If the multi-national corporations & the military industrial complex could have crafted their perfect candidate it would be Joe Biden. Fuck all this bullshit. I rather hear about farts, food & coffee. :P

[@xkidmidnightx]

I wonder why they never put out any anti bush or Obama songs? Trump started 0 wars. Look at what bush and Obama did

[@mikeriley131]

[@optimusck1826]

I find it ironic how punk rock started as an anti-establishment movement and here we are in 2020, punk rockers telling me to vote for the candidate that represents that same establishment they "hate" lol

[@Mozzer232]

It’s not ironic for punk rockers to stand up against racist ideology. It’s fitting. Go suck a boot, fascist

[@osufan77]

Really, just goes to show you how bad Trump is when even punk rock is willing to vote establishment.

[@CommanderWar64]

Better the one they hated than the one they currently loathe.

[@tripodshits]

More like punk rock sold out and is trying to make a quick buck by saying "look at me guys, I'm fitting in too!" Just like all the other talking heads of hollywood. It's ironic cause they have become the sheep. It's all about money, who has it and who wants it and the ones who have it want to keep it. That's why the ones with money tell you to vote for who they want. It's not right or left its rich or poor.
