I Wanna Be A Real Punk Rocker by ~discarded-youth:icondiscarded-youth:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open




I wanna be a real punk rocker
I wanna learn my history
I wanna know every song by the Ramones
I wanna hate emo
And all that corporate shit
I wanna be sedated
Then I wanna get a mohawk
I wanna kill Avril Lavigne
I\'m looking at Good Charlotte next
I wanna wear my tattered Chucks
With my NOFX tee and tattoos
I wanna hate the government
For reasons I don\'t get
I wanna play bass guitar
And sing somewhat off-key
I wanna be a real punk rocker
But, hey, that\'s just me

I love this! One of the only things I've written that was actually cool and funny. I've always had this thing where I want to be the kind of punk rocker every other punk rocker admires. Ya know, the one who has all the punk rock knowledge, knows all the best bands, maintains the ability to sing ANY old skool punk song flawlessly, and has the style that can do no wrong in a punk's eye. As NOFX puts it "Ahh hell, he's even more punk than me. He shoulda been on the cover of punk and disorderly..." So this is what this is all about. Hope ya like!

Where do you start when you take a long, deep look inside yourself and don't like what you see.

Haha! Pretty fucking sweet. I love the little animation. But here's the thing: if you want to be that type of punk rocker, the best way to do it is to learn the history, learn about the bands, learn how to sing the songs (LOL, it's not hard!) and all that good shite. As for style, just do what comes naturally to you, whether it be all black or neon, studded bracelets or rubber ones, faded Chucks or combat boots, or whatever else you want. I'm like that to many of my friends because I've learned history, know bands nobody else knows, and love singing with Johnny Rotten and Joey Ramone's voices.

My Holy Trinity is the Ramones, the Sex Pistols, and the Misfits. I'm in love with (or was in love with) Joey Ramone and (still am in love with) Jerry Only. Am I any better than anyone else? Fuck no! Does anyone look up to me? Sure. I mean, I've never thought about it until now, but that's how it is. But the thing is, whether you are that type of person or not, there will undoubtedly be someone you look up to. I look up to many of my older friends who know more bands and more history because of that, and also because they're great people, but most of them don't dress punk or anything.

So...yeah. Sorry to post so much, but you got me off on a little tangent. LOL. You seem pretty cool! I'm gonna remember your name...:D

FUCK good charlette, sorry i had to say that. Good point, there really is no true punk. otherwise it would go against the whole punk image/idea.

nice text, but as a punkrocker you should get some reasons to hate the state, f.e. cause of the police ;) im improved of the animated gif :D and well, seems so that WIZO is even more popular in english-spoken-regions than a few years ago..
