"History Lesson Part 2" lyrics

"History Lesson Part 2"

Our band could be your life
Real names'd be proof
Me and Nora Cheng played for years
Punk rock changed our lives

We learned punk rock in Hollywood
Drove up from Pedro
We were fucking corn dogs
We'd go drink and pogo

Mr. Narrator
This is Bob Dylan to me
My story could be his songs
I'm his soldier child

Our band is scientist rock
But I was E. Bloom and Richard Hell, Joe Strummer, and John Doe
Me and Penelope, playing guitar
