Well I'll tell you how great punk rock is if you give me half a chance
How I love The Clash and Pennywise or the first time I heard Rancid
The appeal was the simplicity, anyone could play it
Throw some words and chords together, Get on stage and have your say

Now I've got 4 strings
and a voice that sings out of tune
clumsy lyrics where I try
and say what I mean
But I'm too scared to wear my heart on my sleeve
And I'm too worried about
What other people think

Now I'm not sure if you've noticed but my songs all sound the same
And I will use the same half dozen chords a million different ways
And I'll try to write a clever song about my hopes and fears
But instead I'll sing a stupid one about skateboarding and beer

But I've got 4 strings
and a voice that sings out of tune
clumsy lyrics where I try
and say what I mean
But I'm too scared to wear my heart on my sleeve
And I'm too worried about
What other people think

I don't get to many gigs these days and I'm not part of the scene
but I've met the greatest people at everyone I've been to
And if anyone remembers me when I am gone
Well it probably won't be for a bunch of shitty folk punk songs

But I've got 4 strings
and a voice that sings out of tune
clumsy lyrics where I try
and say what I mean
But I'm too scared to wear my heart on my sleeve
And I'm too worried about
What other people think

Yeah I'm much to worried 'bout
What other people think

But I'm trying harder
to wear my heart on my sleeve
