Description
Song from the debut LP of this singer-songwriter-guitarist, who cut his teeth in the New York City punk rock scene before striking out on his own. This guitar-driven “rebel yell” exhorts its audience to cold, hard self-examination, and rails directly and convincingly against the age-old enemies of individuality and self-expression: conformity, mass-deception and denial.
Lyrics
It’s a trap, well it’s a sham You’re in the cage then the door slams They’ll grab you then they’ll put you to sleep ‘Til you don’t make a peep Yeah it’s tough on the outside Yeah it’s easier to run and hide Yeah it’s easier to play along And sing that same old song You gotta get out Get out, hunt for any door You gotta break out Break out, search until you’re sore You’ll buy whatever they sell Do whatever they tell you You’ll kill who they tell you to kill Keep quiet when they tell you to be still But they are not your friends Trust me it’s a dead end Because on the line is control To see who owns your soul You gotta get out Get out, hunt for any door You gotta break out Break out, search until you’re sore You gotta get out Get out, hunt for any door You gotta break out Break out, search until you’re sore Yes I know that you might be scared (Don’t be scared) But you can get out of there (Get out of there) You can break out of that cage (Break that cage) Refuse the call that the liars made Yes I know that you might be scared But you can get out of there You can break out of that cage Refuse the call that the liars made You gotta get out Get out, hunt for any door You gotta break out Break out, search until you’re sore You gotta get out Get out, hunt for any door You gotta break out Break out, search until you’re sore ‘Til you’re sore, 'til you’re sore ‘Til you’re sore
