In the Red

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We've been good But I know we can do better It's exactly what's expected Right down to the fucking letter If nothing's changed, then where's my brain? If there's no reaction, we're bored again Time to turn the volume up More than before for those corrupt [Chorus] In the red In the red In the red Just look at your alternatives In the red In the red In the red [Verse 2] We're not some fucking group for hire And we wouldn't sing flat if we were really a choir What's to gain by what we're playing? Unless it's watered down It's not accepted by the mainstream Loud and fast [Chorus] In the red In the red In the red Just look at your alternatives In the red In the red In the red [Bridge] Got no money Couldn't care less Play it louder [Outro] I don't like that fuckin' scene You say it's part machine He thinks it's too nice or too clean They just want to be the stars Who makes money with guitars Why would they accept anything less? We don't try to relate with the consumer's taste I couldn't think straight if we were Green Day So we'll play loud instead Till the meter's in the red We'll lose our fuckin' heads 'Cause this is not dead
