This song was originally written to be a duet with Joan Jett, however the collaboration sadly fell through. The lyrics reminisce about Laura’s punk rock origins, playing DIY shows in crowded basements and how much has changed. Not just that Against Me! and Laura now play in much nicer venues on inte...
It's been a long long time
Since we used to play
Punk rock in basements
Punk rock in basements
That's where we made it
That's where we used to bear our heart and soul
And never hear the microphone
But we knew every single word
It's been a long long time
Since we used to play
Punk rock in basements
Punk rock in basements
That’s where we made it
That’s where wе used to bear our heart and soul
And nеver hear the microphone
But we knew every single word
Way, way loud!
See the past appearing
Don’t it make you wonder
If you’re coming or you’re leaving?
Way, way loud!
See the past repeating
Don’t it make you wonder
If you’re following or leading?
Yeah we were loud in the crowd, we were freaking out
It was the sound of revolution that translated into action
I can still taste the sweat
I have been carried by the motion
I have been deafened by the volume
The music gave us freedom
It was a reason to believe in
Way, way loud!
See the past appearing
Don’t it make you wonder
If you’re coming or you’re leaving?
Way, way loud!
See the past repeating
Don’t it make you wonder
If you’re following or leading?
And the band goes "Whoa-oh-oh"
It's been a long long time
Since we used to play
It's been a long long time
Since we used to play
It's been a long long time
Since we used to... play!
Punk is dead!
