about

Shout-out to the former UMM pop-punk cover band, "Stay Positive"

God rest their souls.

But they aren't dead.

The band is.

But it might be back.

Uh.

lyrics

(Written improvisationally by two of Jonas and William's freshman dorm-mates. $Pine4Satan2013)

My mom told me not to go outside today, but I did
My dad told me not to take the car out today, but I did
When I went outside there was a nuclear attack, and I died
When I took the car out I hit a kid, and he did

Rebellion, rebellion
It's bad, so bad
Rules are there for a reason

My sister told me not to borrow her top, but I did
Then I went to a party and I threw up, oh shit
Shouldn't have had tomato soup this morning, bad idea
My mom told me to just eat cereal instead, but I didn't
