    "I'm not from around here, so I think with my mouth / grew up a comfortable distance from where I am now". Wil may not have written these lines with the same meaning, but for a country boy living in Melbourne for uni, and having never really liked the city, those lyrics mean a whole lot to me.

    If TV has taught me anything an old man should rock up with a camera crew and a tub of Napisan at the end of this.

    saw them open for the front bottoms last night, pissed at myself for never hearing of them until then
    awesome stage presence, could tell they enjoy it so much, which makes bands 100x more good for me. so awesome! ---brand new & excited fan!

      What a weird comment to see, I saw them open for the front bottoms last night and felt the exact same way, seeing them again in a week and can't wait!

    Does this music make anybody else feel like they're about to cry after coming to a conclusion of a PG13 teen drama block buster and you're the main character?

  • @joemagri8407
    @joemagri8407 8 лет назад +14

    Took my 13 yr old daughter to see them at the Middle East in Cambridge and I thought I was going to bored but to my surprise I really enjoyed the show. They reminded me of a young AC/DC back in the day. Hope they come back to Boston so I can see them again.

    • @wowno5763
      @wowno5763 8 лет назад

      lol what? how the fuck is this band like AC/DC at all?

    • @joemagri8407
      @joemagri8407 8 лет назад +7

      +Wow No Great stage presence and energy. I've seen Smith St twice and ac/DC four times I think I'm qualified to make the comparison. Go listen to your Justin Beiber album asshat

    • @wowno5763
      @wowno5763 8 лет назад +2

      yeah, because i think some idiot is an idiot for comparing this band and AC/DC, i must listen to justin beiber. you have flawless logic skills. btw, AC/DC arent much better than Beiber. Beiber is generic pop garbage and AC/DC is stupid cock rock. theyre like the Waka Flaka of rock.

      +Wow No Another mindless troll for the world to deal with. I'm sorry to have a different opinion than you but get used to it. Nobody cares what you think and your obviously really bored with your pathetic life to comment on my post. Now run along and I won't call your manager at burger King and have you fired.

    I'm not from here so I think with my mouth,
    Grew up a comfortable distance from where I live now,
    So grab me like the animals we were always supposed to be.
    From these terrace house jungles we'll swing from the rooftops,
    Knowing nothing of the one-way streets far underneath our feet,
    There's a life outside these bottles, there's a life right here for me
    But you don't have to surrender,
    If you don't
    You don't have to surrender,
    If you don't
    You don't have to surrender,
    If you don't want to
    And I'll sit quiet, if I have to go home,
    Listening to rubber, disturbed water, and whatever was on the radio,
    We should be climbing chainlink fences with backpacks, nowhere to go.
    And am I satisfied or did I just come to terms with the hunger,
    With me all my life, made me live harder when I was younger
    But you don't have to surrender,
    If you don't
    You don't have to surrender,
    If you don't
    You don't have to surrender,
    If you don't want to
    You asked me if I'm drinking again,
    You say it like it's a good thing
    But you don't have to surrender,
    If you don't
    You don't have to surrender,
    If you don't
    You don't have to surrender,
    If you don't want to
    I've got my white flag with me here just for you
    And the ease of repetition was filling my days,
    And I was comfortably killing myself in a myriad of different ways,
    And I'm not from around here, so I talk like I've been saved
