This is what I want
I want all the punks to take to the streets playing their guitars
This is what I want
Black kids and white kids sharing all the songs that their grandmamas taught 'em
And we'll play 'em on our horns
we'll bang 'em on our drums
we'll play 'em on our guitars
Singing songs that our mothers sang to us when we were young
Songs that we may remember reading
Songs we heard a stranger sing or humming on the streets
Songs we made up yesterday on the porch in the rain on our guitars
And we'll never sing a song we heard on your radio
or a song someone else was paid to write or sing
And we'll never sing of sex the fakest kind of love
Those songs will not be played on our guitars
