amanda rose riley - scuffed up boots lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
he wears scuffed up boots of the most honorable kind
but he found them that way at the thrift store
he speaks fresh insights as if they came from his own mind
but they came from manifesto pamphlets on his floor

[verse 1]
and to go with his boots, he wears a denim jacket
with crass, propagandhi, and black flag patches
when you see him you think he must create a lot of art
when you see him you think he must work so hard
but he never created a thing but for derivative work
he works hard at his image
makes creative friends, and claims what they earn

[pre+chorus]
but man, what did you mean, what did you mean
what did you mean when you said that you wanted to be free?

[chorus]
he wears scuffed up boots of the most honorable kind
but he found them that way at the thrift store
he speaks fresh insights as if they came from his own mind
but they came from manifesto pamphlets on his floor

[verse 2]
and to go with his boots he’s got some shiny doctrines
always retweeting quotes from nineteenth century authors
when you see him you think that he must read a lot of books
when you see him you think he must do so much good
but he never seems to show up when
he’s called on for support by his friends
and he only shares his views in rooms where everybody agrees with him
[pre+chorus]
but man, what did you mean, what did you mean
what did you mean when you said that you wanted to be free?

[bridge]
he wears scuffed up boots of the most honorable kind
and yeah, boots may lack the memory of the lives they leave behind
but how can you just pick up where someone else leaves off?
for the love of all that’s good in the world… start something

because the world doesn’t need another hero
who thinks he can buy the appearance of merit
it needs someone sporting sneakers that she scuffed up herself
and a wardrobe consisting of jeans and a t+shirt

because i think what’s cool is being relentlessly you
and i think what’s punk is letting yourself be the judge
and i think that free means having no one to please but yourself

[outro]
what did you mean, what did you mean, what did you mean?
if you want to be free
if you want to be free, if you want to be free…
