Why t.a.n.g. is my favorite band

It's no new revelation, i've been doing this too long

I've seen a million bands, heard a billion songs, and most of them just sound wrong

Most musicians just don't have it, they'd sell their souls to buy a tune

They buy a nice guitar, get told they're better than they are, and their egos start to bloom

But your band really doesn't matter, it's only rock'n'roll

It won't pave your way to heaven, but hell it moves my soul

So keep it all in context, don't think that you're the next big thing

Be grateful for every gig you have and for every song you sing

And don't take music too seriously, don't call yourself funky when you're white as can be

If you think you're too big to play a house party, then why don't you make any money

Yeah that's why t.a.n.g. is my favorite band, they're the only ones that understand

That sometimes i just want to laugh the night away

The kid's microphone is a gas mask, the most creative thing i've seen

If every band had the guts that t.a.n.g. has, we might actually have a scene

They thrash the autumns and metallica with pure impunity

And i love it when they mutilate bohemian rhapsody

So don't take life too seriously, don't call yourself funky when you're white as can be

If you think you're too big to play a smaller show, then your heart's not in it just your fat ego

Yeah that's why t.a.n.g. is my favorite band, when i see brad on bass he helps me understand

That sometimes we all take ourselves far too seriously

Yeah that's why t.a.n.g. is my favorite band, they're the only ones that understand

If you think they suck then the joke's on you, loosen up and start to sing

Cause sometimes we all take ourselves far too seriously
