Let It Burn 01:52
LET IT BURN There’s a sickness in the street And the cops on the beat Have got a sickness in their hearts Right from the start It’s a world gone up in flames We will never be the same From the ashes of the earth We will make what we are worth So, let it burn Let it burn When the people take to the street And everyone you meet Reminds you we live in this world together Remember

Barfly 01:42
Barfly I gotta get outta my skin So tight Would you meet outside if I walked by Taking my time Best behaviour nights It’s hard to give up when you don’t try Maybe it’s time that I go dry Gotta get outta my shift tonight Avoiding the woes of the barfly These days are taking their toll And my mind’s not right Maybe it’s time that I go dry It’s hard to give up when you don’t try America’s funniest Covideos In case you need incentive for precautions All it took was a pandemic To highlight the systemic All it took was a pandemic To start panic So it’s ok if you’re feeling alone right now I’ll find us a bottle to crawl into I’ll send you a kiss on the way to the floor While I plot out our first steps out the door

Pandermobile 02:44
Pandermobile My body is broken There's spit in my eye again Feeling mistreated I've fallen prone to power trips Can't seem to keep my head up There's water in my lungs Buried by debt Without a paycheck This province makes it harder to live (Harder and harder still) I wake up exhausted My backup plan is failing Drenched in sweat I take all I can get This province makes it harder to live (Harder and harder still) And it's only getting colder outside You’re making changes As you drive your blue pandermobile Your not one of us Just some pig in an ill fitting suit You don't hurt like us so what's your excuse

WAKEUP CALL It’s a wakeup call The companies are leaving Pocketing their handouts The workers get the shaft And you thought it would trickle down Happy with the scraps But the market has abandoned you And we all feel the impact Austerity The burden of deficit Is placed upon the vulnerable And on the backs of the working class Gut the public sector For a lower corporate tax But the money goes to shareholders So they get the last laugh Alberta, wake up how can you not see with all the suffering in the streets uncanny acts play on repeat of violence done to those in need and in the gap is what is missed when we are crushed beneath their fists while holding profits over people trading stock in deficits Ideologies Based in hate and fear Depend on inequality And therefor exploitation As they take their dying breath They’ll take you and me with them So the killing blow is up to us If we are to become Alberta. Wake up

about

Quit It! Calgary, Alberta

Championed by Maximum Rocknroll as the torchbearers of "socio-political anthemic punk," Quit It! harnesses the power of collective voices to ignite a chorus of critical thought, accountability, and hope. ... more
