I'm caught in a fuckin' time warp
  the styles never changing the music
  all sounds the same
  what ever happened to
  the punk rock of the past
  well now here we are
  to bring it back at last
    [Chorus:]
  here's to the spirit of ' 77
  and havin' fun in a punk rock band
  here's to the spirit of ' 77
  and the punk rock of the past
  everyone concerned about the fashion trends
  but not me I don't ear those threads
  the time for change has finally arrived
  and now I know punk will survive
  the old timers, they won't come around
  but we don't need them to keep punk around
  they don't remember the fun they used to have
  they just don't care, well that's too bad
