Long Live Rock N Roll

Tonight, while in the mist of listening to some rock n roll music, I wanted to dedicate a blog post mainly to the wonderful and amazing world of punk rock and rockabilly fashion and attitude. Punk Rock and Rockabilly(as well as any form of rock n roll music) is a way of life and aesthetics. Words cannot describe how I feel-so much love and pride-proud to be a rocker! I will never forget the first time I saw a punk rocker-I was smitten by the way they dressed and they're attitudes. They put so much thought and passion into how they put things together-everything from they're hair to they're outstanding body piercings and tattoos. Punk rock is a major factor of the Sleaze Metal look, too. It influences almost all forms of rock and heavy metal music...it's just so beautiful. This is for all the beautiful tattooed, pierced, punk rock, and rock n roll people.

"When they kick at your front door

How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting in death row

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, Guns of Brixton

The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell

You see, he feels like Ivan
Born under the Brixton sun
His game is called survivin'
At the end of the harder they come

You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need
for the Black Maria
Goodbye to the Brixton sun

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh-the guns of Brixton

When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

You can crush us
You can bruise us
And even shoot us
But oh- the guns of
Brixton

Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game was survivin'
As in heaven as in hell"
