(Everyday is) Halloween
well I live with snakes and lizards
and other things that go bump in the night
cos to me everyday is halloween
I have given up hiding and started to fight
I have started to fight
well any time, any place, anywhere that I go
all the people seem to stop and stare
they say 'why are you dressed like it's halloween?
you look so absurd, you look so obscene!'
o, why can't I live a life for me?
why should I take the abuse that's served?
why can't they see they're just like me
it's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world
well I let their teeny minds think
that they're dealing with someone who is over the brink
and I dress this way just to keep them at bay
cos halloween is everyday
it's everyday
o, why can't I live a life for me?
why should I take the abuse that's served?
why can't they see they're just like me
it's the same, it's the same in the whole wide world
o, why can't I live a life for me?
why should i take the abuse that's served?
why can't they see they're just like me
I'm not the one that's so absurd
why hide it?
why fight it?
hurt feelings
best to stop feeling hurt
from denials, reprisals
it's the same it's the same in the whole wide world
The lyrics CASHING IN of MINOR THREAT is also present in the album Out of step (1983)
Minor Threat sono stati un gruppo hardcore punk statunitense attivi tra il 1980 e il 1983, considerati uno dei pilastri della scena hardcore di Washington D.C.. Fondati da Ian MacKaye (voce) e Jeff Nelson (chitarra), la band ha influenzato profondamente la musica punk con un sound crudo e veloce, caratterizzato da riff aggressivi e testi politici e sociali. Il loro brano più famoso, «Straight Edge», è diventato l'inno di un movimento culturale che promuoveva uno stile di vita libero da alcol, droghe e sesso prematrimoniale. Minor Threat si sono sciolti nel 1983 dopo aver pubblicato tre EP e un album in studio, ma il loro impatto sulla musica punk è rimasto duraturo. La band ha influenzato generazioni di musicisti e continua ad essere considerata una delle più importanti del genere hardcore. Tra i brani rappresentativi: «Straight Edge», «Out of Step», «Guilty of Being White».
