nunchuck Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Freakin brilliant song, mate, i dare say it possibly inspired Green Day's critically acclaimed 'Jesus of suburbia' and that song's only half the size of 'The decline'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if it were written by anyone else but nofx it would get more acclaim. Only because most of their songs are jokes.... Well they are either jokes or really intellectual... lol or both at the same time Edited March 7, 2005 by Stupid_Moron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See your offending me even more by saying they are "immature" lyrics.... The lyrics are simple, yes, in the sense that they arn't poetic in say something Bob Dylan would write.... but its NOFX.... not Bob Dylan... which i think credits the song even more.To be honest i didnt read all of your lyrics. They didnt do much for me.Each to their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid_Moron Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 Man the whole start of the song means nothing without the rest.... i think if you read the whole thing it might interest you more....Who says im not a poet?Just dont judge something from five lines proclaiming its shit and immature... really when your in a better mood comeback and read it and i might do the same to yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid_Moron Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 and it's not so bad...still too straightforward and some angstful motif's for my taste Its punk rock, it's meant to be straightforward and angstful lol....Anyway.. .thankyou for reading... i will read yours when i get a chance, im not in the best of moods atm.
