    Good quality t-shirts that don't shrink or fade. Made for all you gueros to display around town and get stared at and cursed at and yelled at and stomped if you happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time (eg: American Legion). Good thing is, nobody can question your guts while you are wear this. You will be cooler than cool. You will become suave.

about

Rehearsal recorded at Anne Frank's attic with some vocal overdubs.

lyrics

late at night
coming home from
yet another fight
did you know
i lost again?
i got no money
to bring home

i'm sorry baby
i never meant
for this to happen
i could have been somebody
instead i'm just a bum

c'mon now give me a break
i know we got bills to pay
im already pulling double shifts
down at the factory

i got a call from the boss today
he says he's betting all his money on me
i better win if i know what's good for me

and my manager says he has found a new kid
who's very promising
and "i'm sorry old pal but i also gotta pay my bills"
and i know the market wont take our credit anymore

don't worry baby
i know can win this fight
why don't you and the kids
come down tonight?
when's the last time
you saw me fight?

c'mon now give me a break
i know i can win tonight
i've been doing this for so long
i know i can beat this guy
somebody give me a break
i know i can win this fight
i gotta win this fight

The professed goal of the group was the creation of a Greater Sound, by use of violence, if necessary. Lately, they trained guerillas and saboteurs, planned political murders, and played wild live shows. ... more
