Alternative Nation
Better Than A Thousand

Our alternative nation where all the individuals

Are just being the same, massive imitation

Just a 90's version of the same rock and roll game


Yes, the same corporate rock

But now we're sporting punk rock gear

Who's shocked by tribal tattoos

And your pierced ears?


Search for identity, you put in your time

To grow to your dread locks

Change the inside or you'll be just a freak

But you'll act like a jock


Costume changes, will never give you

The answer you're looking for

Personality can't be purchased

In a skateboard store



A music revolution?

No, I will not invest

Same old institution

But I'm not impressed


We change our scene

We change our fashion

But can we change our mind?

An alternative nation's intellectual

Unless we change our mind.


Has the pit just become the dance of the dead

We're moved by vibration with no brains in our head

Ego boost put you up on the top of the crowd

You only care that the music is loud
