Les paroles de la chanson
« Droppin' like flies »
The Real Mckenzies

I recall back in ’79, I was just a wee kid livin’ in a dive

Didn’t drink, didn’t dance, didn’t ever smoke hash

But it changed when I heard The Clash

And you know I needed more so I got

Up and out to the record store

I bought all the records I could afford

An’ I played ’em all on my stereo



This is a song saluting punk rockers’ rise

And what they did to change the times

But with such a lifestyle they’re burnin’

On both sides

Now they’re droppin’ like flies

All those old punk rock guys



I became a fan and I remain that way

And to this day, I’m still blown away

Those bands just cut me to the bone

Like The Damned, The Pistols and The Ramones

Now we just wanna say

They made us what we are today

So now every time we play

We remember those of yesterday



This is a song saluting punk rockers’ rise

And what they did to change the times

But with such a lifestyle they’re burnin’

On both sides

Now they’re droppin’ like flies

All those old punk rock guys



Well, I became a fan and I remain that way

And to this day, I’m still blown away

And then there’s me: I’m not dead yet

But you never know - I could be next



This is a song saluting punk rockers’ rise

And what they did to change the times

But with such a lifestyle they’re burnin’

On both sides

Now they’re droppin’ like flies

All those old punk rock guys

They’re droppin’ like flies

All those old punk rock guys

They’re droppin’ like flies

All those old punk rock guys
