The Abandoneers (Canning, Nova Scotia) - 1987

from Axe the Heckler's Cross​-​Canada Cruise by Squamish Punk Night

lyrics

Back in 1987
punks like me were living in heaven
big black boots
and a leather jacket
cheap guitars
and a big loud racket

Let's steal a car tonight
maybe one of us will get in a fight

We didn't care about their dreams
all we wanted was Apartment Screams
crazy drugs and lots of booze
18 with nothing to lose

Let's burn this fucker down
hit the road, get out of town
smash a bottle across your face
I'm leaving this stupid place

I don't believe in you
you never spoke the truth
you tried to keep us down
but we can live underground

The world was upside down
and ruled by evil clowns
I had a friend named Kevin
way back in '87

nineteen eighty seven
nineteen eighty seven
nineteen eighty seven
in nineteen fucking eighty seven

Those days are gone forever
but I will make you remember
we kicked your wall apart
upset your apple cart

Tried to throw us all away
we're still here anyway

Punks today will still rise up
and take a pee in your coffee cup
like fire falling from heaven
you will remember '87
