Our van got robbed in Berkeley while we were touring last year. We didn’t lose a ton of stuff, but it was still pretty shitty. And then someone told us not to complain about it because blah blah blah. Obviously, we had to double down on the complaining at that point, and this song is the result. We Got Robbed is for anyone who had something shitty happen, and just wanted to feel shitty about it without everybody trying to tell them how to fix it, or how they should feel about it.
lyrics
The streets look long at night in Berkeley. And I just want something to eat before I fall asleep to the rainfall through the window behind me. We got robbed! Take your partner by the ankles, then hang them upside down. Now, shake them all around until their stuff falls out. Now, grab that shit and run! Now you’re doing the Berkeley. What am I going to wear tonight or tomorrow? No one seems to care, or have anything clean to borrow. Man, I never thought I’d ever feel such sorrow over the loss of some of my faith in humanity. We got robbed! “It all depends upon your attitude.” Fuckin’ Greg! “Take your lemons, make some lemonade!” Fuckin’ Greg. “The universe gives what the universe gets.” OK GREG WE GET IT! It helps to find the bright side sometimes, but also life just sucks sometimes. So, give me a minute, I just want to wallow in it. We got robbed!
What a damn solid record! It's the perfect example of why I'm certain that Ska Punk is going to play on the highlight reel when I hit up the afterlife. Scott
