lyrics

When you were young learning people things and places.
Didn't worry about the man politics or inflation.
Now you've made your bed boy you better lay there.
The world keeps turning fast tomorrows gone before you know it. (Chorus)

Stand free stand tall.
Put your fist up to their faces don't wait for the call while they walk upon your patience.
Stand free stand tall.
Stand free stand tall! (Verse 2)

Now you've sold to the corporation.
Praying to your God country and nation.
Now you've made your bed well boy you better stay there lying in your bed withered in frustration

(Chorus)

(Solo)

When it's all done wrapped up in obligation.
It's not that you're slow you just don't know where the race is.
Face down in your bed boy you better stay there.
Now it's all done.
Burnt out in your basement!

(Chorus)

Rooted firmly in a rock and roll background, their music reflects rockabilly, punk rock, and even a teensy-tiny bit of country. After multiple prior releases and a retooling of the bands line up, The McGunks are looking forward to regional touring, Be warned!!! They'll be invading your town soon! ... more
