When bands are talking shit about the other bands in town
And just to get ahead they drag each other down
When venues only cater to promoters with a national act
They don't care for the local bands
There might be
No scene, no scene, no scene
No camaraderie
This might as well be battle of the bands
No scene, no scene, no scene
No common enemy
We might as well be playing in a talent show
I don't want to be no scene
You know there's a basement show where the kids can go
But you've got to be elite
They're making every standard impossible to meet
At 21 and over you get to play the club
Where the disenchanted go to show no love
