Lyrics for the "Questions & Answers" demo

Why do you keep on doing the same old thing?
Not in it for money
No one would ever pay
The fans and the groupies
They always stay away
It’s the same old noise
Forever and a day
And we still like it
Can see no reason to change
Oi! We’re having fun!
Oi! We’re having fun!
Oi! We’re having fun!
Oi! We’re having fun!
Yeah we still like it
Still out of step
5-minute fashion?
21 years of having fun
It’s the same old noise
Forever and a day
And we still like it
Can see no reason to change
Is your music & message still relevant today?
As long as I’m still living I still got to have a say
Just as frustrated and angry as yesterday
Not much as changed just get past your snobbery
Screaming for answers is how it’s gonna be
I wont stop screaming for change
I wont stop screaming for change
I wont stop screaming for change
I wont stop screaming for change
Are you are a political Band?
Our music expresses the way that we feel
Our anger, frustration all seems so real
We think that this moment should be used to show
We have opinions let the noise grow!
Yes! We’re political
Fucking political
Yes! We’re political
Living is political!
Fast and its simple, straight from the heart
Short and direct, we hope this will start
Dancing and thinking, a unified scene?
Inclusive, a family, that’s the dream!
Isn’t punk another set of rules?
To blindly follow or stand in line
Consumer fodder, just wasting time
Do you accept, this version of truth
Do you ever wonder, is it just you?
You have to question
You have to question
You have to question
All the rules!
DIY hard core, just a set of rules?
If you accept them, like a bunch of fools
So much for rebellion, a joke you hide
More than music? Who you trying to kid
Aren’t you just preaching to the converted?
I remember when we'd heard it all before
Just another band with a song about war
Now it seams no one really cares
About anything more than what a band wears
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were) 
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were)
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were)
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were)
Constant war throughout the Middle East
Where are the punks screaming for peace?
Global warming is now all too real
Much more important than a record deal.
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were) 
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were)
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were)
Preaching to the converted? (I wish we were)
Introduce Yourselves
Hell Yeah, we are the shorts
Oi! Oi! Yes we’re the shorts
We got on the stage, anyone can
2 fingers to musicians & elitist scams
Hell Yeah, we are the shorts
Oi! Oi! Yes we’re the shorts
We ain’t so clever or ever so dumb
We’re just 4 punkers out having fun!
This is the part of the song were we should say something  inspiring, hey ho!
