Silence Is Golden But Duct Tape Is Silver – Against All Authority
By
Me and Billy like to sleep all day-all day On the floor is where we decay-decay Mohawks in disarray From Cutler Ridge to motherfuckin’ Biscayne Bay The Gangs tried to kill us, but we wouldn’t take flight Brass knuckles and rusty knives Kept the wolves at bay And we’d play In traffic downtown Turn it up and take me away
What do you do when there’s nowhere to go? Empty pools and punk rock shows Anger that nobody knows And the sun goes down And the streetlights glow As we roll through the city in a bucket of rust With the punk rock South Dade girls screamin’ lyrics at us From the backseat and kicking up dust To the sound of the only people we can trust
Out of control And you’ve shivered my timbers I’m all fucked up The moon’s just a sliver Yeah, silence is golden But duct tape is silver Like the lining of the clouds That conceal the killers Out of control And you’ve shivered my timbers I’m all fucked up The moon’s just a sliver Yeah, silence is golden But duct tape is silver Like the lining of the clouds That conceal the killers
The streets aren’t safe When the winds are blowing In the eye of the storm The blood starts flowing We’re gathering bricks And we’re gonna start throwing Them at you We’ll throw them at you The streets aren’t safe When the winds are blowing In the eye of the storm The blood starts flowing We’re gathering bricks And we’re gonna start throwing Them at you We’ll throw them at you

Kick us when we’re down We’re not going away We’re the stray dogs that chase you The ones you betray We run wild through the streets And sleep with the decay Of all that you have left us: Life in disarray Out of control And you shiver my timbers Tell us to shut up And we’ll give you the finger Yeah, silence is golden But duct tape is silver Yeah, silence is golden But duct tape is silver-obey!
Out of control And you shiver my timbers Tell us to shut up And we’ll give you the finger Yeah, silence is golden But duct tape is silver Yeah, silence is golden But duct tape is silver-obey!
