lyrics

He's seventeen and his life's a cliche
He stays up all night just to seize the day
He's into Hot Topic, got himself a skateboard
A little too crazy for a girl he can't afford
Wristband-bound enthusiasm
Ask for any song and you know he has 'em
He's got a higher calling to reject the high above
But he's just a lonely punk in a pickup truck

He's the result of a broken testing site
Of how much pop punk you can fit in one guy
He's a social dropout, from his shoes to his name,
And he dyes his hair and his parents are to blame
For all the reasons he's in a bad place
He's a rebel stuck behind a puppy face
I don't believe a word but he's sure gonna try
Another day has passed that he can't define

And now I think he's going crazy
Always one step behind the pack
All hope rests on his final maybe
'Cause when he's gone he won't come back

Graffiti covering the mess he made me
So he doesn't have to share
He's the last of the punks, and he doesn't even care
His lonely cliche life's gonna go

Transmit Receive Jupiter
by Rchetype ft. Wolfgun

supported by 5 fans who also own “Last of the Punks”

Crisp, clear, and incredibly fresh! This album masterfully reforges some of Wolfgun's best songs in a way that respects the source material and remakes it into a lush, detailed album brimming with texture. Despite their many layers and moving parts, these tracks never feel too busy or congested - instead, they harmonize to create this incredibly melodic and uplifting selection of tracks I find myself returning to with a great deal of regularity. Absolutely excellent album, highly recommended! Mordecai
