Old School - Overkill

We played it fast, we played it loud

A bit too much, a bit too proud

The only way we knew to do it right

It washed away the misery

So do you know your history?

Or did you only show up for the fight?

Now, all my friends are headed to L’Amour

Music’s L’Amour, the rock capital of Brooklyn

Half of them bounced right out the door

Tonight Overkill at L’Amour, sold out

And if we had the chance to say

Not to go another way

Here’s to the old school

Didn’t matter if you looked cool

We drank some beers and broke

Some heads, we never gave a shit

Climbed every mountain

Stormed every city

They said that this would never last

We never gave a fuck

Yeah, there’s blood all over me

I caught the eye of Johnny Z

Bang your head, thrash around the pit

Now, who the fuck would’ve thunk

They’re playing us on Eddie Trunk?

Catch some air, dive

Who gives a shit?

And all my friends are headed to the Ritz

Hey, it’s Eddie Trunk with a great new band out of Jersey, Overkill

Bobby G, Rat Skates, DD and Blitz

Here’s 'Rotten to the Core' from their debut 'Feel the Fire'

And if we get the chance to play

No, we’ll never go away

Here’s to the old school

Didn’t matter if you looked cool

We drank some beers and broke

Some heads, we never gave a shit

Climbed every mountain

Stormed every city

They said that this would never last

We never gave a fuck

Here’s to the old school

Didn’t matter if you looked cool

We drank some beers and broke

Some heads, we never gave a shit

Climbed every mountain

Stormed every city

They said that this would never last

We never gave a fuck

Here’s to the old school

Didn’t matter if you looked cool

We drank some beers and broke

Some heads, we never gave a shit

Climbed every mountain

Stormed every city

They said that this would never last

We never gave a fuck
