You Ate My Dog - We Burn Like The Phoenix Lyrics

We're not screaming for attention,
just screaming cuz' we think it's fun,
that's why you lost every battle we won.

You see us everywhere you go,
united under common goals,
there's more of us than you will ever know.

Oh no! look here we go again,
so sick and tired of the way you pretend that everything will be fine,
(You pretend everything's ok).
We'll see the end of that when you meet these friends of mine and we'll go
(When really you're the one to blame).

We're just kids having fun (And you can't stop us),
what's going on we ache to create but you hold us back,
(well you can try but let's be honest)
This has just begun, we won't back down, we'll break out and take back what is ours
(And we're not stopping, we won't slow down, now that you're running).

It didn't turn out the way you wanted,
and we'll make sure it never will,
It didn't turn out the way you wanted,
and we'll make sure it never will.

We're just kids having fun (And you can't stop us)
what's going on we ache to create but you hold us back,
(well you can try but let's be honest).

Who are you to say what's wrong and what's right?
This is our time to shine but you keep steeling our light,
so we fight back anyway we know how,
and graffiti saved my life a few year back still,
you only see in blacks and whites don't you well,
now that's why you're losing like alligators chasing after ghosts,
you'll catch nothing but dust and we'll be nowhere to be found
until we rain down to claim your heads!

And then we're gone again, outlaws in your eyes but for some we're heaven sent
and we're not stupid, we're not questioning the need for rules and regulations,
just questioning your rules and regulations!

We're just kids having fun (And you can't stop us)
what's going on we ache to create but you hold us back,
(well you can try but let's be honest).

Understand that this ain't no call to arms,
no we're way past that this is the last warning shot being fired,
you need to step back, examine your actions and change or we'll start,
tearing this down, we'll burn it to the ground and from the ashes we'll emerge,
to rebuild this all for ourselves with no place for you left in it,
so step back as we burn like the phoenix,
cuz' we will deliver on every threat that we make,
and we'll burn just like the phoenix!

This is your last chance to back away unharmed,
so go check yourself before you go and wreck yourself fool,
this is your last chance to back away unharmed,
so go check yourself before you go and wreck yourself fool.
